Cabin on 20 Acres | Wildlife, Big Views, Firepit | Close to Yellowstone

Welcome to The Blackhawk Cabin, a peaceful retreat tucked into Montana’s breathtaking Paradise Valley. Whether you're seeking relaxation or outdoor adventure, this charming, private cabin offers the perfect basecamp for your stay.
Located just 18 miles south of Livingston and about 45 minutes from Yellowstone’s North Entrance in Gardiner, the cabin sits at the end of a classic Montana bumpy gravel road, on 20 acres of open land — often visited by herds of elk, pronghorn, and soaring hawks overhead.
Inside, you'll find rustic charm and comfort with plenty of space to relax. Step outside and enjoy 360-degree mountain views, wide open skies, and brilliant stars at night. Lounge on the wraparound porch, gather around the firepit, play horseshoes, or just soak in the quiet.
Whether you're roasting marshmallows under the Milky Way or enjoying a cup of coffee at sunrise, The Blackhawk Cabin is the perfect place for you to slow down, reconnect, and recharge.

The deck with 4 outdoor adirondack chairs, and a wood burning firepit are to help maximize your outdoor time! There is a nice propane grill for guest use and also a horseshoe pit.

*** Also on the property is a smaller guest cabin, The Blackhawk Nest, optionally available to rent with the main cabin. It sleeps up to 5 and is spaced far enough to ensure privacy, but close enough for group gatherings. You can rent both the Cabin and The Nest together if you want to have the entire property to yourself! The Cabin and the Nest each have their own firepit areas and are distanced for privacy and seclusion, as well. Renting both, if available, you automatically get a 10% discount off the nightly rate. This Blackhawk Nest may be rented by other guests while you are here. Both are rentals.

ROAD DISCLAIMER: The roads to the Cabin and the Nest are very bumpy and gravel, so please drive slowly. The road and the cabin are plowed in the winter, but we always recommend (though not necessary) a 4wd vehicle.

Nearby, the charming towns of Livingston and Emigrant await with its welcoming community, vibrant arts and live music scene, and local dining experiences. Of course, the grandeur of Yellowstone is never far, only a 40 minute drive to the North Entrance in Gardiner, offering countless opportunities for hiking, wildlife viewing, and exploration of the planets largest concentration of geothermal wonders.
