About this property

Chico Peak cabin near Yellowstone and Chico Hot Springs

One bedroom apartment attached to what once was a historic log bar, now an art gallery and frame shop. This business is quiet and is closed at 4:00 every day. The apartment is spacious, about 500 sq ft, with a sliding door opening to a large deck with a table and chairs, a propane BBQ, and views of the mountains. Lounge chairs are available in the warmer months. It is an ideal location, so close to Chico Hot Springs, 4-5 restaurants and bars, fishing, hiking, and the quaint western town of Livingston!

It is in a picturesque location and is clean and charming. The bed is comfy and has a sliding door opening to an 8' x 24' deck and a wonderful view of the mountains, and is also private from other homes and the road. There is a large 'L' shaped country kitchen that has a love seat and end table as well as the dining table with seating for 4 and a corner cabinet offering storage of kitchen serving dishes, etc. There is a full-sized washer and dryer with laundry soap and dryer sheets provided. There is no separate living room. Tariff varies according to the time of year. If you brought your four-legged, we have a small pet fee of $10 per day up to a maximum of $45, unless the stay is longer than 14 days. Additional pets, slightly more. Please get a quote for longer stays and multiple pets. An additional pet fee can be paid via VRBO. We have a portable AC unit vented to the outside.
For bargain hunters and folks needing just one more day...


Washer, dryer, deck, table, and chairs, and all the amenities of your own kitchen, gas BBQ with propane provided. All paper products, kitchen staples, and an abundance of spices are included! Also, WIFI and Dishnet satellite TV with lots of channels. Also, a campfire pit with firewood, in reasonable amounts.

Slight. We are here to answer questions and make sure everything is in order! We live a few miles away. My husband, Gary, works in the gallery during the day. There is no noise from the business. The apartment is oriented to the backyard and the mountains and is shielded from any minimal road noise by design. Gary's hours are shorter these days as he nears retirement. We do have a co-host, Matt, who can assist if we are away.

I love the town of Pray! The town is really a wide spot in the road with a post office, art gallery, hair salon, surrounded by ranches and small acreages. The historic Chico Hot Springs is two miles away with its hot springs pool, Saloon, fine Dining Room and Poolside Grille. Other restaurants and bars or saloons are in the area, within ten minutes drive. The mountains are ten thousand feet high and are always beautiful. Horses frolic in pastures and there could be a cattle drive going on right on the road. Yellowstone is 35 minutes away. Emigrant is 3 miles away for a wonderful selection of groceries, even organic.

A car or a bike is necessary. Horses are welcome too! I have heard there are Uber drivers in the area now! The daily bus to and from Bozeman leaves from Livingston. You will need to check locations.

Wifi is available, and a variety of movies for the 49" TCL smart TV with Dish TV, with an abundance of stations. BBQ and a kitchen stocked with the basics await you! Ketchup, mustard, hot sauce, vinegars, extra virgin olive oil, and usually a salad dressing or two, and basic paper products are provided for you!
HOUSE RULES

Smoking outside please.

Pets are allowed with approval and a small fee of $10/$15/DAY for 1/2 pets or a $45/70 maximum for up to 1 week. Long term stays, please ask.

Folks who like to party should go to a motel, although no penalty for joyous laughter!

Please wash your dishes and leave kitchen generally clean and tidy! Please use cutting board in drawer near stove, not countertops. Put bacon fat in jar provided, not down the drain!

Small campfires only when there is little to know wind. Extinguish with water when retiring.

'Pay it forward' by starting a load of laundry! Also, Yellowstone entry receipts are good for seven days. Leave your receipt, and maybe the next guest could use it. (Although Yellowstone can use the money, too!)

Garbage can be put in the can in the mudroom and in the kitchen. An outside garbage can will be installed by 4/23/2025.

We wish you a special getaway to our part of the world and an abundance of fun and memorable adventures in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Vicky Holland

Host profile image
I fell in love with this valley in 1993 and moved here to work in a Guest Ranch for the summer of 1994. Met my husband, Gary, that summer at age 39, and the rest is history. Left the hectic lifestyle as a real estate agent in Bellevue, Washington, and discovered that I had a creative side that needed to be awakened by my artist, husband. Bought the old Pray Bar, added on an 1800 square foot gallery and frame shop and settled in! We have two shitzu's, Kopi and Jessie, that assist in running the gallery, while Gabe, a deer-headed chihuahua, keeps me entertained at home managing the vacation rentals and the marketing details with the gallery!

Why they chose this property

It was a charming space in a town called Pray with a beautiful view and so close to Yellowstone! It answered my call for simplicity!

What makes this property unique

Totally self-contained but near restaurants and Chico Hot Springs, as well as the fishing, hiking in the immediate area and 35 minutes to Yellowstone Park, yet only 30 minutes to the perfectly sized town of Livingston! For more extensive shopping and entertainment, the college town of Bozeman is delightful!
