Great views of Sawtell Peak and the surrounding mountains.
Walk to Forest Service trails or make a short drive to Henry’s or Hebgen Lakes and to fishing on local rivers.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION: Our first Idaho property, called Two Mile Cabin because it's barely in Island Park, Idaho, just two miles over the state line at the Continental Divide. This little neighborhood of homes is a great base camp for exploring the Yellowstone area. It’s just 12 miles to the park entrance, is surrounded by national forest for hiking, mountain biking, and snowmobiling and it’s just a 5 minute drive to Henry’s Lake and the Henry’s Fork River, both world-famous fisheries. With 3,200 square feet of living space, including a large family room, TV room and sauna, it’s a very comfortable home for a large group.

BEDROOMS/BATHS: The cabin has five bedrooms and four full baths. The main level has three bedrooms and there are two more downstairs. On the main level you’ll find a master bedroom with a king size bed and attached full bath with a tub/shower combination. One of the other bedrooms has a queen bed and the other has 2 twins. They share a full bath with tub/shower. The sunny lower level master has a king size bed and a large attached bath with walk-in shower. The second bedroom has a queen and uses a bath with shower just across the family room. All bedrooms have Pottery Barn linens and iPhone docks.

KITCHEN/DINING: This is a great kitchen for a crowd as it opens to the bar, the dining area, and the living room. It’s equipped with tons of serving and picnic ware, and lots of small appliance extras like a crock pot, waffle maker, electric mixer, and blender. There’s also a Weber grill out on the deck. The large dining table seats eight comfortably and the bar accommodates another four guests. There’s also plenty of seating for enjoying outdoor meals out on the aspen shaded deck.

COMMON ROOMS/SAUNA: The cozy living room has a gas fireplace, a flat screen HD TV with satellite service, an iPhone dock, and comfy leather seating. Step out the sliding doors to the deck with additional seating for cocktail hour! The downstairs is dedicated to helping you relax after your day of exploring. The huge family room has both Foosball and a game table. There’s a TV room with a large screen TV and a sauna room with a three person infrared dry sauna.

SETTING, ACREAGE, AND VIEWS: Two Mile Cabin is in a small mountainside neighborhood about 12 miles from West Yellowstone, a major entrance to Yellowstone National Park. It sits on one half acre and enjoys incredible views towards Henry's Fork Valley, Sawtell Peak, and other mountains along the Continental Divide. You’re likely to see elk, moose, fox, and maybe even a bear in this beautiful wild area!

OUTDOOR AMENITIES: Decks on two sides of the house provide room for enjoying coffee in the morning sunshine and then sunset over the mountains. A gas grill, firepit, swing set, outdoor dining table, and plenty of cocktail seating make these very enjoyable spaces. Garage is available for guest use.

TOWN/AIRPORT: You are 10 miles to the grocery store in Island Park and 12 miles from West Yellowstone and 100 miles from both the Bozeman, MT and Idaho Falls, ID airports.

NEARBY ACTIVITIES: In winter, you can snowmobile right from the house and get onto hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobile trails. If you prefer Nordic skiing, West Yellowstone’s Rendezvous Trails are a short drive away and you can explore the park by snow coach. In summer, there’s hiking and mountain biking all throughout the area, fishing on the Henry’s Fork and Madison Rivers and on Henry’s Lake, boating on Hebgen Lake, and day trips into Yellowstone.

Engagement Retreat
Everything worked out great. Place was perfectly located to snow mobile. Only thing was the walks could have been shoveled as there was two feet of snow to walk through which made the mud room a bit of a mess.

Enjoyed our stay here!
10 of us (ages 3 - 73) stayed for a week at this location. Very close (within 15 minutes) to west entrance of Yellowstone. We made good use of the great kitchen by making all of our breakfasts, taking along sandwiches to the park and cooking dinner all nights but one. Beds were comfy with plenty of room for kids to play downstairs while adults relaxed upstairs. Would recommend this VRBO to friends.

Great cabin for large groups
We loved this cabin! The open floor plan and seperate game area was perfect for hanging out in groups that wanted to do different things. There were plenty of beds and baths for everyone and we had access to snowmobile trails. We cooked several meals in the cabin and found everything we needed. We were greeted by a red fox upon arrival and had a nice white weasel as a visitor as well. We would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay!
Our time at Two Mile Cabin was great! Beautiful home, view and area! Lots of nice little extras in the home (toiletries, kitchen supplies, a cooler so we could pack drinks & food for daily adventures) that made our stay even more enjoyable. Very nice and relaxing place. Watched little critters outside and a fox after them in the yard. Would love to catch a flight right back there if we could :) Just a great place to spend a wonderful time with family♥️ Highly recommend

Comfortable space with a great location
Our experience at this property was mostly positive. The property had many offerings including several cans of bear spray, condiments, variety of pots and pans and two coffee makers. The beds and living room furniture were very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this location. For improvements we would recommend mowing more frequently, fixing the railing on the front deck and more options for seating around the fire pit.

Perfect West Yellowstone home
I've been coming to West Yellowstone for Cross Country skiing for a zillion years. Have rented numerous different places but Two Mile Cabin is by far the best. Lovely home with sauna, beautiful views, very tastefully furnished and hosts who go out of their way to make it easy and comfortable. About fifteen minute spectacular drive to the West Yellowstone trials or Park entrance. Could not recomend more.

Felt like home
I was hesitant to book this place because it didn’t have any reviews but took a chance because of the location and space. I do not regret my decision. It was a beautiful, clean, fully stocked home, with plenty of space for multiple families. I wish we could have stayed longer.

BEST Montana stay
This property is exactly how it looks online, although I might add it's a little better! It's more spacious than it looks, lots of room for our family of 7 adults and 2 toddlers. The location is incredible, just about 10 min from W. Yellowstone. It has everything you would have at home, including a high chair and pack-n-play for the littles. They have more spices than I have at home! Incredible property, very relaxing, clean. Tons of books for all interests. Downstairs space very nice addition to the open space upstairs. We loved our stay and will book again soon!

Yellowstone/Teton Vaca
I don’t give compliments easily but 2 Mile Cabin exceeded my expectations. I’ve been renting properties for decades across the country and this property was the cleanest ever. The appliances are high end, large kitchen, plenty of decks, spectacular views and a hot water heater that never failed a large family. We rented off season but lots of good restaurants nearby (Buffalo Bar) and superb boxed lunches from Ernies. And the park is only 20 minutes away. Moreover, the owners went out of their way to help us retrieve a “left behind” item. Very grateful. We will definitely rent 2 Mile again.

Nicely located.
The cabin had something for everyone. The teen boys played a lot of pool and foosball while the younger boy watched Videos and the older boys. The adults had some space upstairs in the living room and the young adults hung in the kitchen. There were spices and every cooking thing you could need. Books, videos and games. My only suggestion is to bring your own pillows!! We are already planning for next year!!

Yellowstone and Teton National Parks vacation
Two Mile Cabin was fantastic! It was more than enough space for our family of 4!!! Located in a nice neighborhood only ~15 minutes from the West entrance to Yellowstone, with plenty of places to eat just outside the entrance in West Yellowstone. We arrived the last week of April to find the cabin surrounded by ~2 feet of snow, but the driveway was plowed and the walkway shoveled to the back door. The kitchen had everything we needed and more! Beds were comfortable and we had a lot of fun with the fooseball table! We even had a visit one morning from a little red fox who was looking for handouts. :)

Two Mile Cabin with MOUSE
The property was very nice. the problem was the MOUSE . Saw it on our first night at dinner in the kitchen Called the emergency contact the next day which was a Sunday. He said an exterminator would come out the next day - Monday No one ever came during our 5 day stay.! We had to keep all the food in the refrigerator to prevent possible contamination. Put towels under our doors to feel somewhat safe from the mouse at night We found mouse traps in the bottom floor so the management company knew they were there. We needed to be warned first before we would stay at a place like this due to the safety of my grandkids and adults. We would not have stayed - We should have gotten a discount or had our money returned The house is nice without a mouse. The last night there I saw a mouse go under the chair in the living room near where our grandkids were. I spoke to the management company during our stay which was hard as we were at Yellowstone all day without cell service. But when reached, they knew about the mouse issue but did not seem it was any big problem The property would have been great without the MOUSE probably many mice

Great property, great location
I was slightly disappointed when we first pulled up because it looked smaller than I thought from the outside - but it was incredibly spacious on the inside. So all of the pictures were accurate and for the 7 of us, it was more than enough space. Also, I appreciate the owners reaching out to us directly to let us know about recent bear activity. We were pretty prepared before we got there, but it was very nice of them to contact us. A couple of minor hiccups like the TV didn't work, but it turned out to be nice because we were there for Yellowstone for a week anyway. And we so tired coming back each day that it didn't matter. Also, the owners offered to come over and fix it and tried - for some reason it didn't work. But again, it actually worked out and the fact that they tried was very nice. Of course, the foosball and mini-pool table were the biggest hit with our two kids. Very spacious. Great location. Very responsive and helpful owners. And a professional management company that gave us all of the info ahead of time. We had a blast and would recommend it to anyone!

Warm and welcoming
We had a great time! We had 3 families and the house fit our needs perfectly. Basement game room was great for our kids. Upstairs living room had comfortable seating for all of us to sit and visit. Bedrooms and bathrooms were great. House was clean and one of the nicest we have rented in the area. We seem to always struggle with snowmobile trailer parking at Island Park. This house again fit our needs great! There was a large drive in spot that fit a crew F350 and 4 place enclosed, to the side of the garage we parked another crew cab F350 and in front of the garage a 3 place enclosed along with cars in the garage. Snow was amazing when we were there in Feb 2023. Owners were very nice and called to check on us. Only possible negative is needing to cross the highway to access some trails. With younger children this was a little nerve racking during the blizzard. I know - can’t complain about a blizzard when you are snowmobiling! Normal weather conditions, there is ample view of the road with time to cross. Overall place was fantastic and we will stay there again!
