Fabulous Home

If there was an option for 6 stars this house would get it! Beautiful, quiet location but an easy drive into West Yellowstone and the park. The home is so well maintained and fully stocked with thoughtful pluses like coolers, backpacks, bug and bear spray, sunscreen, and baby gear. Lovely large kitchen and a dining room table that could easily seat 10. Spacious floor plan and comfortable bedrooms. Our comment upon departure was we wish we had been able to spend more time enjoying the house but the beauty of Yellowstone National Park kept us away from early morning until about dusk. I highly recommend a stay at this beautiful home.

Large house in a quiet neighborhood

Nice large house in a semi-rural area. Great kitchen. Only minutes from Yellowstone Park. Great for star gazing at night (if it didn't snow 12" while we were there!).

Perfect Place and Beautiful!!

Two words to describe this place... Perfect & Beautiful! This is one of the nicest homes/cabins our family has stayed at through VRBO. The location of this place for winter activities in WYS & Island Park Idaho is perfect. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for sharing this place with others. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Retreat.

This was a beautifully designed and decorated home. It was peaceful and comfortable with all the amenities. We all wished we could live there! The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen and open floor plan made it easy for us to spread out comfortably yet still visit with each other after our busy days touring the park.

Holiday Nordic Week

We had a great Holiday week getaway at West of West. It's a lovely cozy home with everything you need to do all you own cooking and spend time with family. We did lots of Nordic skiing, the Rendezvous Trail System is just a short drive away. Thanks for such a great home and for sharing it with us.

Beautiful home and views!

Gorgeous home tucked away in the aspens, with blooming lilies all around. Super clean, great location, nice big kitchen, tasteful decor. The upstairs master had the most comfortable bed. We enjoyed bird watching from the deck in the mornings and listening to the rushing streams when it rained. Nice view of the snow-capped mountains from the upstairs master and living room. So glad we found such a nice place that was dog friendly!

The house was perfect for us! It has a homey, cozy feel & plenty of space for our needs. Also close to Yellowstone National Park entrance. Quick response from owner/property manager which is always appreciated. Do get the Hospitality app & check emails as additional information about the property is included.

Great place for a family vacation

Our family of eight (grandparents, adult children and grandchildren) enjoyed our stay at “West of West”very much - it was convenient to Yellowstone. the property was well-designed and beautifully kept, the kitchen was fully equipped and served our needs. when we had questions, the management company responded quickly to give us answers and address any concerns we had. The kids loved the space and there was adequate room (both bedrooms and bathrooms) for all of us. We recommend it

Snowmobile group weekend

We were a group of three couples meeting to enjoy snowmobiling in West Yellowstone, MT. The house was perfect for our gathering! The kitchen was fully stocked including pots and pans, dishes, glasses, and everything we needed to enjoy our time together. We cooked a huge breakfast in the morning before snowmobiling and enjoyed the warm fireplace when we got back late that evening. Everyone commented on how comfortable their beds were. The bathrooms were all first class. Don't miss this spot, it is beautiful!

snowmobile group stay

This home was such a wonderful winter retreat to enjoy some fun snowmobiling. We were a group of five and were all impressed with this lovely home and its location. We were able to park a five place snowmobile trailer and two vehicles with no issues. Inside this home was a perfect balance of rustic meets modern. It is also a very nicely furnished and clean home. After a day of riding we would come home and remove our gear in the tiled mud room and then enter the warmth of the main living area with the gas fireplace a welcome sight for our cold and tired bodies. Heading into the kitchen you will find ample working space to prepare your meals. Everything we needed was there and ready for our use, right down to the crock-pot for homemade chili and the mixer for making the mashed potatoes. The views from this home face lionhead mountain and make for some nice photo opportunities as the light changes. The beds were very comfortable and if you are into reading a book before retiring for the evening, there has got to be hundreds of books to select from for your enjoyment. Overall, we had a fantastic stay. Communication with the property manager was excellent. Internet worked well. I would certainly come back again and would most definitely recommend staying here if your plans bring you this way. P.S. We took a video of a moose from the side porch as it casually walked by. Great memories!

Perfect place for family vacation

We rented the house so that our three adult children, their partners and babies could all be together. It's a GREAT house for a family reunion--the common spaces are large and comfortable. We used all four bedrooms. The kitchen is terrific too! We had a great week there. We came to nordic ski and the snow was fabulous. We went snow-shoeing on the trails right from the house and drove to the groomed trails oin West Yellowstone. Loved the house. Thanks so much.

Fantastic property, stayed for 5 nights with 2 adults and 4 children, plenty of room for everyone. Very fancy property, very clean with lovely, homely feel. Good distance from West Yellowstone, close enough for facilities but away from the hustle and bustle. Great accessibility to Yellowstone. Very impressed.

Beautiful home close to YNP

This was our 3rd trip to Montana and this was by far my fav place to stay. The home is cozy, warm, well appointed, and comfortable with a really well equipped kitchen in which to prepare meals for the whole family. The setting is gorgeous, wooded, calm , and peaceful. I loved sitting on the huge deck and enjoying the afternoon sun. The views from the upstairs second master are spectacular. The downstairs master is handicap equipped. There are also binoculars, bear spray, a first aid kit to borrow, and beach towels for swimming. We loved this home so much! Would absolutely stay here again. Hope we can! PERFECT vacation get away!

This custom home is a true treat to stay in. It is furnished with comfortable seating and beds as well as every cooking item in the fantastic kitchen that one could need to make a gourmet meal. The porch is perfect for relaxing and breathing the fresh mountain air. It is very clean. The washer and dryer are large capacity which is so nice.
