About this property

The Downtown Lovely - Historic yet modern space downtown

There is no better way to experience the eclectic, vibrant, culturally diverse mountain town of Livingston than staying downtown in one of it's convenient and historical buildings! A fun blend of history, vintage building with modern amenities. Walking distance to all the fun, food, shops and scenery of this once bustling railroad town. You will fall in love with Livingston's character, beauty and friendly locals.

The Downtown Lovely is in one of the most beautiful, historic buildings downtown. Once a hotel during Livingston's heyday when it was the original entrance to Yellowstone National Park; the bright and peaceful space is all you need for a quick weekend in Livingston or a longer stay for work or travel. Did we mention, it is just lovely ...

The one bedroom apartment is located on the second level with extra tall ceilings, large windows, a newly remodeled kitchen with updated appliances and a large bathroom with clawfoot tub.

The living room has a couch that converts to a very nice queen size sleeper sofa, smart TV, Victrola record player and a few eclectic tunes. The quaint dining area has seating for 4, and a large desk for any "work from home" needs.

The apartment has high speed internet . We also have two window ac units - one in the bedroom and one in the dining room.
There is no onsite laundry, but we do have two laundromats in town.

Well behaved pets are allowed with PRIOR approval and a $200 non-refundable pet fee. They must be kept on leash and there is no area for them to do their business unless you walk around the block (and of course pick up after your pooch!). They are not to be left unattended (and not barking) in the apartment.

Parking is 2 hour just in front of the apartment, but less than 1 block away are city streets where cars can be left overnight and longer than 2 hours.

ABOUT LIVINGSTON AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
Resting on the banks of the Yellowstone River surrounded by majestic mountains. Livingston delivers an eclectic blend of shops, museums, Golf course, galleries, live theater and music, as well as unique restaurants for every taste. Livingston and Park county have endless breathtaking ranges, fun and hardworking ranches and romantic shops, diners and restaurants. Whether you seek the rugged outdoors or culture within our many art galleries and live theatre, comfort cuisine to fine dining, you will certainly be ready to stay longer.

Livingston is known for its neon signs, breathtaking views as you walk up and down the main streets, surprisingly cultured restaurants and shops.

45 minutes South you will find Yellowstone National Park, 15 minutes drive to river access in Paradise Valley, 15 minutes to numerous hikes and trails and so much more! The Bozeman Airport is 30 miles away.

For your convenience there is a key pad on the door to the apartment. Guests have access to the entire apartment, the common areas on the main level and 2nd floor level just outside #20.

Amazing, safe, lively and beautiful part of downtown Livingston. You are in "The Grabow," a well maintained, historic building and former turn-of-the-century hotel, now hosting individually owned condos and apartments. There is a common area on the first level of of the building so you can spread out and relax and take in the local scenery.

Livingston is very walkable! So, around town you will find you can eat, drink and play easily on foot. However, we recommend a vehicle so you can drive to Yellowstone, hiking trails and other excursions. We always recommend 4 wheel drive.

There are 24 steps to get to the apartment. There is no elevator in the building. Parking is limited on the street and 2 hour on the streets just outside the building. Vehicles must be parked 1 block away to avoid the 2-hour parking tickets!

A quick getaway

We were in town for a wedding and wanted a centralized space to walk to and from. It’s a lovely spot, the entry lounge area of the building is beautiful, and the apartment was perfect for what we needed! We really didn’t take advantage of the whole property as we were gone most of the stay, but it had everything we needed :)

Was very Lovely

Incredible apartment to stay in. So cute, had all the amenities we needed: kitchen, coffee, nice family room to lounge in. Even enjoyed paying record on the turntable. Host was quick to answer any questions we had. The lobby of the apartment place was so light and bright and filled with plants and cute decor. This place was the best part of Livingston!!!

We enjoyed our stay in Livingston. Great vibrant historic town. The apartment, while small, is perfect for a couple. The AC units are noisy but luckily the heatwave broke the day we got there. Building is quiet and well located.

Super cool spot - so close to so many parks and homes. It is right in the middle of the downtown - so easy for us with a baby! We could come back to the apartment and walk to so many great show and restraints making things so easy after a long day out.

Quaint

The apartment was lovely. Everything you need within walking distance; coffee, bakery, restaurants, taverns. A very nice location in a wonderful small town. However, it does not sleep four. There is one bed and a small fold-out (trundle bed). The fold out is really only designed for one adult or two children. Keep that in mind when booking.

This is such a beautiful rental! I could easily live there. Love the vintage furniture and fittings. I don’t have Netflix at home so fun to geek out on that. Only complaint was it was way too hot to sleep in the bedroom- needed another AC in there- so had a restless sleep on the fold out. Also- why no microwave?

Why they chose this property

The Downtown Lovely is just that. Lovely. You will find yourself in a space that is peaceful, bright, clean and convenient. You will meet lovely people on your easy morning strolls to coffee shops, cafe's and galleries. The western streets of Livingston are framed with towering mountains, friendly faces and the charm of the west. Summers are glorious and green and winters a stunning white (albeit windy) and not for the faint of heart.

What makes this property unique

The historic building that houses the Lovely is beautiful, well maintained and a part of Livingston's history. You are walking distance to everything downtown (the heart of the area) as well as the beautiful Yellowstone River, famed public parks and a beautiful 45 minute drive to Yellowstone National Park. You are still only 30 minutes to bustling Bozeman where you will find more shops, restaurants, Montana State University and the amenities of a larger city.
