Great Place
We stayed here for several nights to visit Yellowstone. The home was spacious, clean and the beds were comfortable. The house is located about 5 miles down a bumpy, dirt road outside of Gardiner. The ride up the hill to the house certainly added to our adventure! Thanks for sharing your place with us.

Nice house
This is a beautiful, well built house. Pros:We were a group of 5 -4 adults and a teen-and it had plenty of room for us. The bedrooms were spacious. The open floor plan on the first floor was very nice, with an especially beautiful wood dining table. The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/plates/glasses etc. The front porch/grill and fire pit were nice features. Luckily no one was renting the smaller unit so we had privacy. (I don't think it would have been as nice if someone else was there at the same time.) We contacted the management company with a number of questions before arriving and they responded promptly. When the coffee maker wasn't working and there was no dishwashing detergent replacements were dropped off. Cons: while the house is exactly 15 min from the entrance to Yellowstone, as mentioned in the description, what is not said is the house is set high up in the hills and guests need to drive on a rough, winding, gravel road to get there. We were in a minivan and had to drive very slowly to get to the house. Due to its location we only left and returned to the house once a day. It is not convenient to go back for a forgotten item and all restaurants/grocery store are down in the town, near the arch, so make sure to have your food supplies before heading up the hill. Lastly there is no view from the house, which would have been a plus given the location.

Dirt Road House
The home was very nice and spacious. The spiders in the ensuite bathroom were out of control, everytime you'd kill one, two more would appear. The dirt road to the house was very rough and took 15 mintues each way.

Great Stay in a Previous Dance Hall
One of the best properties we've ever stayed in! We loved the large open room downstairs, the fully stocked kitchen and the awesome front porch! The beds were great and we loved all the parking. The 15 minute drive from town was a pretty rough road, but the views along the road made it worth it.

This rental was much more rustic and isolated than we anticipated from the VRBO listing. I could not recommend it to others considering staying here. This rental was overpriced in my opinion.

Well Appointed Cabin
Up a mountain road with beautiful views is this well appointed cabin. We had a minor issue at check-in, but I was blown away by the speed with which the issue was communicated to the property manager and resolved. Everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The details were well thought out and the newly renovated space very comfortably handled our large group.
