Our primary focus is to provide a safe, welcoming, and comfortable experience for our guests.We are a local family who own, manage, and maintain the Shelterwood property. We offer 3 rental options astheLodge, Guest House, or both homes at a reduced rate. We live minutes from the property and are available to support your stay, including driveway snow removal, trash removal, and maintenance as needed.
Construction was completed in 2021. Having abackground in outdoor careers in Montana, we relied on our years of experience working and recreating in the woods when we designed and built Shelterwood. Built for the Yellowstone environment, homes are well insulated with central heat and ceiling fans. In the summer we prefer to open the screened windows at night to enjoy the cool mountain air. Tucked up in the trees on a north facing slope and shaded wrap-around porch, central AC is not needed. We are happy to answer questions about the area and the homes.
Summer highlights: touring Yellowstone Park, fly fishing on Blue Ribbon rivers and streams, visiting the lake, hiking and mountain biking access from the property, guidedhorseback rides, see the rodeo, ride the Yellowstone Aerial Adventures Zipline, catch a movie on the Yellowstone Giant Screen, visit the Grizzly Wolf Discovery Center, dining and shopping in West Yellowstone.
Winter highlights: groomed snowmobile trail access from the property, cross country skiing and snow shoeing access from the property or in town at the Rendezvous trail system, dog sledding,ice fishing, winter tours into Yellowstone by snow coach or snowmobile, downhill skiing and snowboarding at Big Sky ski resort.
