Welcome to our new cabin! The road that connects Gardiner to Yellowstone is now OPEN! We are located just 2 minutes from the North Entrance of Yellowstone! Enjoy beautiful views, wild life and a relaxing stay while being close to restaurants and grocery shopping. We have a security camera on the front door of the property monitoring the outside. We do not have any cameras or surveillance devices in the cabin! We are beyond happy to help you plan your vacation by answering all your questions! We’re all about the views and the outdoors and the wild life, so even though we provide a lot more than a hotel room, we’re not a luxurious accommodation. What makes us unique is that we are bordering Yellowstone!

This was a perfect “home base” while visiting Yellowstone. It is close to lots of shops and restaurants also. The cabin was nice and clean with fanatic views!
The place was nice, clean, and neat. She had hair and body products in the shower. The TV and air conditioner use was confusing. Some written instructions might be nice. The front (where we entered the building) was close to the fence. We did not see elk there but we did see them as we drive up the street!! So cool.
The only thing I didn’t like was the spiders! Ok there was only 2 but I hate spiders. Not the owners problem per se but….
What a great comfortable cabin. We stayed for 2 nights and it was a great location for exploring the Lamar Valley. The elk (with babies) hung out just on the other side of the fence and we heard them talking to each other. The induction hot plate worked great. Wish we had stayed longer.
We stayed one evening at this property. It is nestled behind other cabins, so pay attention to the signs and instructions from the owner for access. Parking was good —but the walkway to the cabin was not conducive to rolling suitcases! We managed. It was very clean and well-stocked with basic necessities and even extras. The beds and pillows were very firm. The washing machine is loud and vibrates the whole cabin, so prepare accordingly! But, it was a great amenity and much appreciated. While it sleeps four, I would not say it accommodates four people. It is a cute, very cozy cabin (like a hotel room but separated from other people). Overall, a nice place to stay for a night. Host gave good instructions in an email for what we needed.
The site is exactly like the pictures, very clean, great location if visiting Yellowstone. The site has all the amenities you could need, very well thought out. Easy check in.
Beautiful cabin, super clean and organized. Had everything we needed and more that we didn’t! We saw no less than 50 elk cows and babies right outside our front door. What an amazing gift for our last night in Gardiner.
Check in was a breeze. The instructions were clearly communicated to me from the host through the VRBO app. The cabin had everything we needed and more! Perfectly located at what seemed to be the edge of town and just minutes to the north entrance of Yellowstone. 10/10 would recommend.
Thank you
The cabin was clean, comfortable, and the location was great. Right in Gardiner with the north entrance to Yellowstone 5 minutes away. Only downside was the extraordinarily rude housekeeper who yelled at us for being 15 minutes late to check-out, but Maya was very kind and assured me the problem would be addressed. Overall would recommend.
A clean, well equipped and cozy place with close proximity to grazing elk and deer. A chain link fence is all that separates. Quiet, peaceful. Eating at Wonderland in Gardiner was a fun and delicious experience. We also enjoyed an e-bike tour with Jay at Big Sky E-bike Tours!
Perfect spot for the two of us! Excellent location for travel to Lamar Valley (we got to see wolves!). Spotless inside and had everything we needed. Bed was super comfortable too! So happy we found this place to stay!
Maya and Jack made sure everything we needed was available for our “home base” at the North Gate of YNP. It was clean, comfortable, quiet and well appointed. My husband was a little dubious as we drove onto the street (some of the locals use their outdoor space extensively), and the backyard location was unconventional; but once we reached the front porch of the cabin we were pleasantly surprised.
The cottage was really clean and well situated, very close to Yellowstone North entrance. We had good contact with the property managers. Maya and Jack were very helpful and answering questions we had before our stay. However, this place is good for a short stay not as long as we did (6 nights) because the appliances in the kitchen are limited; one portable electric stove with only one burner and a very small microwave oven. This made difficult to cook 6 diners for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers! All the rest was perfect.
Great location for our Yellowstone trip. Clean with everything you need for your stay.
