About this property

Red House Homestead · Picturesque Paradise Valley Home near town & river

This historical and cozy property has an idyllic home with sheds, barns and outbuildings perfectly situated around the property. Landscaped yards, walking trails and access to forest service hiking and climbing areas, and literally adjacent to the Yellowstone River and Carters Bridge Fishing access.

You can walk with your coffee to fish, hike or climb with the benefit of having direct access to the Allenspur climbing area just out your back door! All of this yet you are 5 minutes from downtown Livingston!

Aside from it's premier location, the home has great access and recreation opportunities for summer and winter adventurers! XC skiing around Livingston and Yellowstone National Park, 35 minutes from Bridger Bowl, fall hunting, summer fishing ... the opportunities are endless!

If the exterior isn't enough to make you feel like you have stepped into a dream, the inside of this gorgeous and immaculately maintained home will convince you that this is your perfect vacation home. Originally built in 1901, was moved to it's current location and remodeled completely in 1995, the house has all the updates of a modern home, with the feel and coziness of a time gone by - even central air conditioning! No details are spared, its well stocked with all you'd need for entertaining and feeling like you are at home (but better).

The property is an easy 38 miles to Bozeman Airport, 50 minutes to Yellowstone National Park and 20 minutes to Chico Hot Springs. You have breathtaking mountain views of Absaroka Mountains and Emigrant Peak.

BEDROOM CONFIGURATION:
Master Suite: King bed, attached full bath and double doors that exit to the beautiful back deck
Guest Room 1: 2 Twin Beds OR King (beds can be made to either configuration upon request)
Guest Room 2: 2 extra long twin beds
Guest Rooms 1 & 2 share a full bathroom in the hallway
Bonus Bedroom 3: Off the laundry area on the south end of the home, this bedroom has 1 twin bed.
This bedroom is adjacent to a very nice 1/2 bath off the kitchen and mudroom area.

KITCHEN, LIVING AND OUTDOOR SEATING:
The large kitchen has every small appliance, serving platter, utensil or tool you need to host a wonderful meal. You can serve your guests in the gorgeous 8 person dining area (complete with entertaining linens, napkins, placemats, etc) or on the amazing deck with mountain and hillside views. Outdoor lighting, BBQ grill and table and chairs are found in your al fresco dining area.

The living room is cozy and has seating for the crew. A large flatscreen TV is equipped with direct tv and a roku device for your streaming subscriptions . Games, books, and plenty of conversation pieces are found here as well.

The home has a full size washer / dryer, iron and ironing board, mudroom for taking off you fishing gear, AND a bonus full size refrigerator and freezer for extra groceries, bags of ice and refreshments.

THE GROUNDS:
Explore, relax and enjoy the beautifully kept yard with secret trails to the historic outbuildings on the property. We have a gas fire pit on the porch to cozy up to and enjoy the amazing views. You can safely and easily walk on the trails to the national forest access for endless hiking and rock climbing opportunities of Allen Spur and the Absaroka-Beartooth mountains.

4.5 miles from Livingston. You are on a more rural country road, but a well traveled one . You are between forest service and a public fishing access spot on the Yellowstone River. Garbage service is not available at this location, there are several places nearby to dispose of your bagged garbage, a map will be provided.

You'll need a rental car. Rental bicycles could be fun for the active guest who likes a leisurely ride from town (on a paved designated bike path) from the house to town.

Beautiful property and home! Will definitely visit again. The meadow surrounding the property is breathtaking, and watching deer cross the property every morning was a plus.

We absolutely loved this house. We’ve been coming to the Paradise Valley for many years. In fact we used to live right down the street about a half mile toward Livingston. When I live there, I’d always drive by the little red house sometimes even taking pictures. I’m so thrilled to have been able to stay there with my family and share our love for this area and our nostalgic past.

My favorite home away from home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Another amazing stay at the Red House Homestead is in the books. As always, this house offers everything including comfort, style, extraordinary views, room to gather with my beloved family, and, of course, frolicking foals who sometimes nap. I love that all of the things that would be extras anywhere else are simply included so we can just settle in and get on with the business of fun. My absolute favorite aspect of this house is the long table in the dining room and the long table on the deck. Loads of room to gather each evening to eat, laugh, and make memories with family and friends.

Comfy Home in Beautiful Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is in a great location for exploring Yellowstone and floating the river. The bed's are comfy, the kitchen has all the supplies you need, the washing machine/dryer are a great amenity after a week of exploring the area. The back porch is perfect for dinners or relaxing with a cup of coffee in the morning. Checking in/out was super easy. Would highly recommend this rental property!

Montana Escape

This home and location was spectacularly beautiful, and definitely qualifies as a “unique stay.”At the time we were staying, there were mommy and baby horses on the property, and we were able to pet them! They certainly made for amazing photo ops. The place itself was roomy for all 7 of us (5 adults 2 elementary aged kiddos). The beds were super comfortable, and that beautiful foothills/Mountain view was pretty much visible in every window of the house. Albertsons was a short drive away which was super convenient. All of us agreed that we have to come back to this place again. Can’t imagine staying anywhere else!!

Charming House and Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our week long stay at the Red House Homestead was saved from bad luck (smoke, rain) by the excellent quality of the house (particularly the kitchen) and by the herd of Momma horses and their offspring in the meadows. Overall the house is finished to a high level and was spotlessly clean. I would highly recommend this rental. I had some concern about being close to a road, but the windows are virtually soundproof and we were never disturbed.

The little red cottage!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Due to a change in our original rental, where the owners decided to cancel the rental, less then 48 hours before our arrival, We booked this on 6/1/2019. Turnkey Property Management , needed to find us (7 adults) a place to stay. the location was about 20 miles further away from where the original rental was. We were lost for words to say the lease,after getting 7 adults to agree on a location and having the carpet pulled out from under us all.All though the cottage served us, there was compromise that we all needed to was 1.500 sq.feet smaller !!!! than he original rental. that being said,Turnkey P.M..did their best to satisfy us all. Respectively , Pat Grippe

Beautiful well maintained property right by the Yellowstone river.

The family loved this home beautiful views and comfortable setting. The fly fishing was great just a short walk to river. Yellowstone National Park was an easy beautiful drive away. Easy drives to both Livingston and Bozeman. We are already looking to plan our next trip to stay in this beautiful home and state.

Beyond Expections!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: With many vacation rentals, it’s not always what’s expected when you get there. In fact, almost every time there is is some kind of disappointment, but not here! This is the first vacation rental (and my family has been to many) where it met or beat every expectation we had. To say the home is quaint and beautiful is understatement and the scenery is just majestic every which way you turn. The service from start to finish with Deena was the best I’ve experienced as well. Top notch all around and it will not disappoint!
