Great place!

This cabin was perfect for our visit to Yellowstone. It's 20 minutes from the west entrance and is located in a quiet area. It's bigger than it looks in the pictures and had plenty of room for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. It was clean, and the kitchen had all the pots/pans/gadgets we needed (though the toaster was pretty finicky). It reminded us a lot of our own cabin, so we felt right at home!

Great Stay

Wonderful stay, great distance from Yellowstone. The house had everything we needed. Everything was very clean. We also enjoyed Marvin the Moose who would come visit the yard most night. It was so fun to sit on the porch and just watch Him. Would stay here again.

Beautiful cabin. Quiet area. Saw moose the very 1st morning right along side of the cabin. Beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed. If we could have changed anything it would be that it would be closer to West Yellowstone. We would definitely stay there again

VRBO just a short drive from Yellowstone

We loved having a comfortable VRBO during our adventures in Yellowstone. We did a lot of hiking, so it was great for the kids to have their own beds! We even explored Idaho some and went horseback riding close to the VRBO. Great location and comfortable space!

West Yellowstone vaca

The house was really nice and perfectly met the needs of our group. My dad enjoyed the porch and we all appreciated the serene and quiet area. You could hear some highway noises but I slept with any open window and was not disturbed.We made a few meals at the house and found the kitchen and grill user friendly with the exception of a cheese grater. LOL Kudos to the owners for a pleasant stay.

About the host

Hosted by Shawna

Host profile image
We have been experiencing the Island Park and West Yellowstone area since the early 90s. Nikki & Bill enjoy fishing, boating, hunting, snowmobiling, hiking and x-country skiing. We love the area and all the recreational opportunities available right out your door!

Why they chose this property

We decided on Island Park due to the location and recreation potential. We live in central Montana and for a quick drive we can experience all the mountains have to offer. It is centrally located between family and friends making the location even more desirable. We also have friends who are full time residents Island Park and West Yellowstone who we visit and recreate with regularly. We finally decided to have a home to call our own when we are in the neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is “Just Right” it is large enough to accommodate us and friends or family but not so large that we lose the cabin feeling. It includes all the comforts of home in a fantastic setting. The Aspen Ridge location is off of the main path so it is a great place to kick back after our day of recreating or catch the morning sun to plan the day ahead.
It is located close to all the fishing hot spots if you feel like wetting a fly, both Henry’s Fork and the Madison are close and fishing in Yellowstone Park is a hop skip and a jump away. When we lake fish, Henry’s lake or Hebgen Lake are both good options. The cabin is located in the Aspen Ridge Subdivision where the proximity to public lands access is fantastic. You can choose your sport by your mood in the morning. Perfect!
Bill and Nikki have chosen Moose Crossing Vacation Rentals to manage their cabin and ensure the happiness of their guests. Shawna and Rhonda are a small property management company and we take great pride in our rental cabins. We strive to make sure that the cabin is clean and comfortable for all of our guests. We appreciate you choosing our cabin for your vacation memories and hope that you arrive at a vacation cabin, but by the time you leave it feels like home.
