Wonderful place to stay. Very private surroundings. Close to stores and restaurants.

Happy with gourmet kitchen. Plenty of room for our family of seven. Would recommend a new mattress on guest beds at top of stairs. Made lots of great family memories and took in lots of sightseeing! Would stay here for future vacations.

Wonderful house

We had a great time and house is beautiful. Awesome pool/ping pong table. Bedrooms were very comfortable. No AC upstairs but open windows at night and it really cooled down. Good location to get to West Yellowstone entrance of the YN Park. Very quiet location so it was relaxing sitting out on back deck

Purely delightful cabin

My siblings and I enjoyed our annual party at this beautiful cabin. We loved the spacious, custom-built cabin filled with delightful paintings, decor, and furnishing. It exceeded our expectations in every way. We had a problem with the tv and a competent techie came within half an hour and resolved our problem.

Yellowstone adventure

The cabin was beautiful. We loved the wood work and details. It was close to the little store and the main road through Island park and yet it was surrounded by woods, giving it an isolated feeling. I loved the back porch, the space and the gathering areas. The kitchen table made for great visiting with family over our meals. Easily accessible to the West entrance of Yellowstone, Mesa falls and our favorite Coffee pots trail.

Family vacation

This house is amazing. Perfect for our family. The kids loved playing outside and the fire pit was an amazing way to end our day. Not to mention making s’mores. The Kitchen was huge and easy to make meals for our bunch. Plenty of bathrooms so there was no waiting. It is secluded enough that you feel like you are in the middle of a forest but only 20 min from Yellowstone west entrance. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Grandpa's Retreat has all you will need!

Grandpa's Cabin allowed us to gather as a family in a gorgeous setting close to Yellowstone National Park. Our time spent there was priceless. Everything about the cabin made us smile- from the stunning craftsmanship, carved mantle and gorgeous artwork, to the rustic dishes and billiards table with the buffalo nickles! It is an amazing place and we are grateful to you for sharing it with our family. It felt like home! Thank you from The Force Family- 8 hailing from Mill Hall, Pennsylvania and 4 from Boise, Idaho

Wonderful Home Away from Home!!

We stayed for the week at this beautiful cabin. We had 7 adults that each had their own space! The kitchen was amazing and the outside fire pit with swings was great! We sat on the porch each morning and night! The upstairs is not air conditioned and it was very hot this week but there were fans overhead and in each closet. The evenings got a little cooler so it was not unbearable! We had to get in touch with the owners once for something that wasn’t working and they came right out to fix it! Most importantly it was very clean! Immaculate!! Only 25 minutes to West Yellowstone! We absolutely would stay here again.

Creating Memories

This property was absolutely perfect for our family of eight. Proximity to Yellowstone, access to world class fishing guides on the Madison, horseback riding, etc was easier than we anticipated. The house far exceeded our expectations from the photos and description. Kitchen, dining and great room were, naturally where we spent most of our time and those accommodated us very well. I would highly recommend this house to anyone interested in planning a vacation to the Yellowstone area.

Nice place

Grandpa's Retreat was a nice place. Beautiful location, beautiful house, and excellent decor. There were lots of instructions in lots of places and some of them said contradictory statements in there that made it a little overwhelming when trying to check out. I would definitely visit it again! Thanks for allowing us to visit!

Family Vacation - Yellowstone Trip!

We had an amazing stay at this property. We took a family trip to Yellowstone and this made the trip that much better. Located approximately 25 minutes from West Yellowstone gates, easy drive to and from the park. Communication with the property manager was outstanding. Check-in was seamless and the cabin was very clean and had everything that we needed. We had eight people stay at the property and everyone was very comfortable, including the grandparents. There are instructions and notes for everything in the house. Bring your own pillow - pillows are thin and not comfortable.
