Wonder stay!

We loved the cabin! It was exactly what we wanted and was what was advertised. It was so cozy and welcoming. There was enough room for all four of us. The views are spectacular! We even had deer in our yard! One thing I want to mention is how amazing our guest host was. Tami went above and beyond to make our stay so enjoyable. The communication with her far exceeded what we have had in the past with rentals. We will definitely stay there again! Thank you for a the great memories we will share far beyond our stay.

Perfect place for a cozy stay

We had such a great time staying in the Yaak River Hideaway. The cabin was clean and tidy when we arrived and we found it well stocked with everything we needed. The cabin grounds were beautiful, secluded, and provided many adventures for my children. It was one of our most memorable trips to date and we look forward to visiting again.

Yaak River Hideaway was just what we needed - a weekend getaway!

The Yaak River Hideaway provided us just what we needed. A chance to unwind and de-couple ourselves from our oftentimes way too frantic lifestyles. Watching the sunrise, listening to the Yaak River wind its way through the canyon below, while just letting go of all of our troubles. Thank you.

It doesn't get any better.

This was my second time staying at this property. And it won't be my last. The property is a clean and cozy cabin in the woods right on the Yaak River. The host, Tami, is top-notch. She stayed in contact with me before my arrival and after. I can't recommend this property enough.

Yaak River Cabin

The music of the river lulled us to sleep. The wall to wall carpet in the living room and the downstairs bedrooms aggravated my allergies. But, over all, good spot for quiet relaxation plus hiking.

Leaving wirh heavy heart

Beyond a doubt, one of the best places we have ever stayed. Tami, is beyond words in her guest relations. Best view and sound of spring whitewater from the BLESSED e Yaak River below us. Best bed, EVER, best shower in Montana, we quickly realized whatever pictures we took would do it NO justice, The same could be said about words to try and describe the Yaak Hideaway, we were so blessed to find this gem!

Perfect Getaway!!

The cabin was perfect for our 6 adult family! Very tidy and clean, plenty of supplies, and a well stocked kitchen. There were even spices in the cupboard and condiments in the refrigerator! The only ask would be more chairs to put at the table to play cards. It truly was like a home away from home! And the Host? AMAZING!! She was so helpful and kind, with lots of suggestions for things to do! Nobody wanted to leave and we’re already making plans for a return trip!My only complaint is with Evolve. The link to the check in document did not work and they did not respond until after we were already at the property. Thankfully the Host had given me her cell number and she was able to help us out. All in all, an amazing trip!!!

Terrible experience

A terrible experience. They notify you right before checkin by text message how to get in the cabin. The problem with that is there is no cell reception for 18 miles from the cabin. We made 2 round trips to town to call, which is a total of 72 miles , before we had contact with the host. She said" You are no the first person" that had that problem..... The 1st person should have been the last person that had that problem. The host just didnot care enought to fix the problem. There is also no acess to the river, as the cabin is more than 100 feet above on a steep cliff." The river trail" leads to a private home with signs stating KEEP OUT NO TRESPASSING!!!!! Very Disapointting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus the cabin smelled like dirty socks.

Blissful Spring Break

I cannot describe how wonderful it was staying at the Yaak Hideaway for my son's spring break as it was exactly what we needed! The communication with Tami was beyond expectation and everything from the check-in process to all of the recommendations on where to explore made things so easy for us. The cabin was cute, warm, and really had everything we needed. Everything from the bedding, stocked kitchen, and toiletries was all provided. The cabin had plenty to do as there were countless board games, fishing rods, and the best part.... the beautiful Yaak River. I really wished VRBO would allow us to post pictures as the different views of the river were breath taking! We experienced sunny days, rainy days, and some snow all in the same week! We enjoyed it all! I especially loved hearing the rain on the metal roof.... it was so soothing! There was also TV/WIFI available in which I was thankful as my alma mater SDSU made it to the finals for March Madness and I was able to watch the game in the cabin. The wildlife is abundant in the area and we loved leaving some peanuts on the deck rail as the flying squirrels made an appearance and I just loved seeing them! Tami really made us feel like family and I can't thank her enough for her generosity. We will be back!

Disappointed

The Area this vacation rental was in was very beautiful. After learning the home was ready for our stay we headed out on our vacation.The home was not very clean. Upon opening the front door we were greeted by a mouse trap that my husband had to empty as soon as we arrived.We planned to cook our meals but the oven was in horrible condition.The bathroom was not nice at all. Large amount of hair in the drain, sink was very dirty. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the morning but come night not so much. A bear came to this cabin three nights in a row and tried to get into our truck. Clearly this bear knows to look for food at this rental.Made us very nervous at night to even take our dogs out. We will come back to the Yaak, but will not be interested in renting this home again.

Unplug and get away from everything & enjoy nature!

The whole cabin was great, but our favorite part was the deck. We spent hours there looking down at the river below us, watching the hummingbirds, and reading. The whole property was very private and it was a treat to be able to walk down the (steep!) hill to our own private spot on the river. As Tami promised, we caught some fish right there on the Yaak River. :) The living room was comfortable with two recliners. We ate all our meals out on the deck, but we used the kitchen table for playing games. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook at home. The beds were really comfortable. We were there during an unusual heatwave and we were SO thankful that the hosts had just purchased a new AC. That and the many fans in the home kept us cool. We found great swimming spots close to the cabin: Yaak Falls (5 min) and Yaak RIver (10 min.) Campgrounds. Troy was only about 20 minutes away, and we could get cell coverage there. It was actually nice to be really unplugged at the cabin with no wifi and cell coverage. We read lots of books! This was a wonderful place to really relax in nature!

The Yaak river Hideaway was absolutely delightful!!!

We came to visit a friend who has started a homestead in this area. Guarantee that we found the most wonderful, comfortable, cozy cabin on the Yaak river to spend a few days. Tammy was so accommodating and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed for a stay in this remote mountain location! We forgot coffee and sure enough there was some here welcomed to be used!! The cabin felt like home and we had the greatest time!!!! And you CANNOT beat the view!! Wow!

Charming getaway

This is a totally peaceful place to recharge. Woodsy, with a lovely back deck looking down onto the river. Lots of charming outdoor space to explore, have a picnic, play horseshoes. Master bedroom and the bathroom are on the main floor. The other bedrooms are up a narrow spiral staircase - best for kids and agile adults.

Beautiful river setting, cabin needs some work.

Pros: Unbelievable setting, river is amazing, view from back deck and sound of the river was incredible, very private setting. Cons: Cabin was cluttered and dusty, only 3 forks and 3 towels for a cabin that is advertised to sleep 8, sink pipe in kitchen was broken and dryer vented into the room. Overall we enjoyed our stay due to the location of the cabin, the view, and river access but the cabin is cluttered, dusty and could use some updates. Also it would be nice to have enough utensils and towels for the number of guests the cabin sleeps. Setting can’t be beat!
