YELLOWSTONE CABIN - THE ELK VIEW CABIN at Yellowstone (River view)

Located literately on the boundary edge of Yellowstone National Park. Just 4.5 miles, from the North Entrance to YNP at Gardiner, Montana. The cabin is located just 3.1 miles from the bridge, at Corwin Springs, on Old Yellowstone Trail South. After crossing over the Corwin Spring Bridge turn LEFT on Old Yellowstone Trail South which is a dirt road. Please note; like most other dirt roads, this road can occasionally be a rough to ride on. Therefore, we highly encourage everyone to slow down & enjoy the abundance of wildlife often spotted along the road. The Elk View Cabin (#20) is just 1 of 21 cabins. This group of cabins provides a sense of security not offered from a solitary cabin location. Once inside, you'll see the Yellowstone River, through the two large front windows, Paradise valley as it extends towards the western entrance of Yellowstone, spectacular mountains views of Absaroka-Beartooth Range, to the left, & the Gallatin Mountain Range, on the right.

Throughout the year, wildlife often roam freely along the Old Yellowstone Trail South & frequently our property as they migrate in and out of Yellowstone National Park. Occasionally, our guests are blessed to see elk, bison, mule deer, Prong Horn,
Big Horn Sheep, Coyotes, Yellow Belly Marmots, Mountain Blue Birds, Meadow Larks, Western Tanagers, Swallows, Wood Peckers, and a variety of other birds all grazing just outside the cabin (Please keep in mind, all wildlife are dangerous, one should not try to feed or pet any wild animal). Although, not often seen Grizzly and Black Bears may wonder through, (especially at night).

The cabin has a fully equipped kitchen, 2 bedrooms (one with a King bed, the other with 2 Queens beds, each with an “ensuite”, accommodating 6 people, a washer & dryer, spacious living/diner room area. When you first walks into the cabin, you'll notice Native American artifacts & artwork. The owners take pride, in years of collecting, and love to share their collection with each of you.

Our guests can enjoy morning coffee on the patio, while they watch the sunrise racing across the valley floor or at night watch the moon rise over the mountain top. If one is lucky enough to witness the Full moon rise over the mountain, the view is indescribable. The evening sunsets often light up the sky with a multitude of colors and then covers the night sky with celestial objects like stars, plants, and the moon. Five common constellations which are visible in a clear night sky include; the Big Dipper, Orion, the Little Dipper, Taurus the Bull and Gemini the Twins. On occasion the Milky Way is also visible. However your best chances of see the Milky Way is around 3 to 4 am.

Please note, Although the Yellowstone Rivers flows in front of the cabins located along the river, we do not encourage fishing from those river bank areas. Fishing is available from Corwin Springs, located just 3 miles from our cabin and most places along the Yellowstone River. We do advise one to check with the Ranger Station, located in Gardiner, to get the facts on fishing along the Yellowstone River or lakes throughout Montana.

The owners strive to provide quests with a 5-star vacation experience by providing the cleanest and coziest home away from home setting, as possible. Although pleasing everyone 100 percent of the time is not achievable, our goals are to make your
stay unforgettable, encourage you to share your experience with your family and friends, and make your vacation plans to return very soon to Yellowstone National Park and the Elk View Cabin.
