We really enjoyed this vacation home. It had everything we needed and more. Ray was a real pleasure to work with he was quick to respond and took care of all our needs!
The home had plenty of room for all 8 of us. The lake was beautiful we enjoyed watching the eagles and ospreys dive into the water and carry fish away. We hope to stay here again one day.
Thanks for letting us enjoy your beautiful home.
Island Park is the perfect place to relax and enjoy catching up with family. We had comfortable accommodations, quality cooking supplies and a beautiful view. We laughed a lot and enjoyed their kayaks and hot tub. Ray is great to talk to and eager to ensure we are comfortable,
Perfect cabin for our family reunion! We loved being right on the lake with a great beach and fire pit. The yard was great for spike ball and wiffle ball, and the hot tub was great. The kitchen area, den, and porches were great to seat our huge family for dinners.
Such an amazing property! Amazingly clean when we got there, the pictures online didn’t do it justice. The views were beautiful and the amenities were spot on. The website was so helpful for information and checking out and the processes were so smooth! Thanks Ray for letting enjoy your beautiful place!
Short stay with lots of fun.

Beautiful views of lake and trees
Close to stores, gas and restaurants, but remote enough for quiet beauty of Island Park.
Overall, we had a great experience at Island Park, the cabin was very large. Our group never felt like we didn't have enough room. The sleeping accommodations were great as were the furnishings. The best part of this location was the beach and the dock, the dock was large enough to accommodate our boat perfectly and the beach was great for the kids to play on. The hot tub worked perfectly and we utilized it regularly.
This was the perfect spot for our family reunion The home is beautiful and very comfortable. Ray was always helpful and ready to answer questions. We enjoyed the kayak and the fire ring. The accommodations provided everything we needed. This is a beautiful home and we are grateful that Ray has made it available for families. It was the tranquil week we needed. Thank you, Ray.
This is a great lake house for a week of family fun. The dock worked well for 2 wave runners and 5 kayaks. The pool table, hot tub, and media room kept the teenagers entertained. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook with. The grassy yard and multiple deck levels provided both sun and shade for lounging in the afternoons and evenings. The fire pit was great for roasting s'mores at night. Ray was great and responded immediately to any questions we had. Everyone said it was the best family reunion site we have ever had.
The property was very clean and pretty. The kitchen was well stocked. It had a lot of pots and cooking supplies, The lake was simply gorgeous with a fantastic view from all living/family rooms. The hot tub was nice. It was a pretty quiet place. The host did an excellent job. Very enjoyable time.
This place was amazing… would definitely rent this place again… the layout was amazing… we had sixteen people and we did not feel like we were all on top of each other…. The food at the lake side inn and the ponds was amazing… I would highly recommend this place to anyone that has a big group…
Perfect for our family gathering. There were nine of us and we all thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful and spacious cabin. There are three different gathering areas which is great for a large group. Plenty of optiions if you're staying in - jacuzzi, pool table, large table and chairs for meals and games, a TV in each gathering area and the view is amazing - very peaceful and calming. Close to many activities. Very close to Yellowstone and a longer but beautiful drive to Jackson Hole and the Tetons for a day trip. We also went river rafting, horseback riding, hiking and jet skiing - all closeby. Thank you for a wonderful stay and a truly memorable family reunion! We highly recommend this cabin!
We made great memories at Ray's cabin. It is an amazing, spacious home on the water. Would love to do it again. Thankshird stay at this property for our family- we love the cabin, the beautiful setting and lake. Will definitely return!!
everything was even better than advertised. We’ll be back!
Highly recommended.
Ray's cabin was a wonderful place for our 3 generation family of 13. Bedrooms were very nice, plenty of room to spend time together. Boat dock was great to use and the views on the lake were super. We even had a momma moose and her baby walk right out on the shore in front of the cabin!! Highly recommend.
This cabin was comfortable and had anything we needed. The view was amazing and the dock was perfect for our boats. Ray was great to answer any questions that came up. We will definitely come again!
We could not have found a better place to stay and we have the United States government to thank for that. If it had not been for the cancellation of our reservations at the Old Faithful Hotel in Yellowstone National Park, due To COVID-19 restrictions, this wonderful home would never have been experienced. This lakefront property provides a magnificent view, especially at sunrise and sunset. The amenities provided makes you feel right at home. Thank you for your hospitality.
Excellent property for family gathering. Beautiful, directly on lake with a dock and access to kayaks. Ray (owner) was easy to contact and field questions. A small repair to a cable on the dock needed to be done and he came within a few hours to fix it.
Sometimes we don't stop to think of how great it is that people with such beautiful properties are willing to share them. We made great memories at Ray's cabin. It is an amazing, spacious home on the water. Would love to do it again. Thanks
We had a great stay and really enjoyed the house. Thanks so much!
