A totally authentic Montana sweet retreat in a convenient location

Tucked into the woods at the end of the road just 13 minutes from the heart of town, this cabin is a treasure. Cliff built the place himself; each tree sawn on his tractor-powered sawmill. We added family antiques, new mattresses and original art (lotsa comfort and love). The covered porch is high in the trees with breathtaking views 1000 feet above the Yellowstone River. A stellar location, you will be hard-pressed to find a more memorable authentic cabin experience during your Montana travels.

Cliff was the stuff of legend; a barrel chested mountain man with a heart of gold and a zen-like deep-souled connection to nature. The cabin has power, running water, bath, shower and a full kitchen. The loft has a king size power adjustable bed and the "Powder Room" has a full size bed. Both beds are topped with hand stitched comforters and cozy linens.

The secluded cabin was built onto the side of a mountain above town. You can watch squirrels scamper on the ground outside the bathroom window yet the living room and porch at the front of the cabin sit high off the ground in the trees. Through the tree tops, sky surrounds a view of the Yellowstone River below and the Crazy Mountains beyond. Sunrises and sunsets are spectacular from this nest of a home in the trees. The thirty foot porch has a BBQ grill, a dining area and a lounge area complete with a fire pit to cozy around while looking at an endlessly star-filled "Big Sky Country" sky (especially delightful as we do not have the distraction of light pollution). Nights are considerably cooler up here in the forest 1000 feet above Livingston, a welcome respite during the warmer summer months. Cliff's cabin is in it's own neck of the woods, easy to access and private. You will find plenty of forest and a few trails to explore. A big horned owl and its mate have been hanging around Cliff’s cabin - you may hear them hoot at night and in the mornings.
Although we live on the property, you will not see our home. We enjoy people but we do not want to disturb the beauty of quietude which Cliff's cabin offers our guests. Simply let us know the level of interaction you desire. You may check-in on your own. We are accessible by phone and will let you know if we are out-of-town at the time of your booking. You will be able to see my art studio on your way to Cliff's cabin (ask us if you would like a studio tour). We are happy to answer questions and meet your needs. Let us know how we can make your stay dreamier.

Best trip we have ever taken!
Our stay at Cliff’s Cabin was amazing! Our host was so incredibly helpful and friendly.. he was truly a blessing! The cabin itself was spotless and in excellent condition.. it is also in the most beautiful location… tucked away in the woods. We loved it so much that we are flying back to Montana to stay at Cliff’s Cabin again in the fall. We will probably be there twice a year, every year from now on!

Great time at Cliffs Cabin
Raymond and Amber were excellent hosts. The cabin looked great online, it was even better when we arrived in person. The road to get to the cabin is pretty long and steep, but that added to the seclusion. Cabin was very rustic with all the modern conveniences. Overall it was a great place to stay.

Weekend Getaway and Fly Fishing
Wonderful place with lots of character. The hand craftsmanship was very impressive. This is an authentic mountain cabin. We were there in late fall for fly fishing and enjoyed using the wood stove to heat the place up and carry us through the night. Close to Livingston and close to great fly fishing on the creeks. Will stay here again for our next trip.

A magical getaway for our first wedding anniversary
The house is one of the warmest place we've ever been. The quietness and sense of tranquility was exactly what we were looking for. Amber and Raymond were very responsive and attentive. The house and the place were it is located was just perfect! Also, even thought we spent only a night there, the kitchen was full of amenities the hosts kindly left in case we needed something. 5 stars out of 5!

Best Montana Vacation Ever!
Cliffs Cabin is perfect. Cliff, Amber and Raymond have created a gorgeous, artful, cozy safe place for recharge, inspiration and rebooting:) Private mountainside cabin surrounded by trees and wildlife and amazing views .. kind beautiful people. We were able to use it as a home base for visiting Yellowstone and it snowed our last day. Our older Labrador fit perfectly and was comfortable.. as were we all. It was perfect.

The Florida Girls
My sister and I stayed an entire week at Cliff's Cabin and would highly recommend this place. 3 miles up a dirt road, surrounded by trees. The hosts, Amber and Raymond's cabin is on the property but cannot be seen from Cliff's. So many unique decorative features within. Raymond was especially helpful and answered our texts within minutes. Would definitely recommend a tour of Amber's studio, just a short walk from the cabin. Such an amazing artist. Also, definitely read in the visitor book of how Cliff's came about. Would love to stay there again!

Absolute Perfection!!
We found this place when another VRBO turned out to be not what it was advertised, and we're so glad we did. The hosts are absolutely wonderful, very friendly and helpful. The cabin is tucked in the woods on the side of a mountain and makes you feel like your in an adult tree house. Its great nature watching and has great views with huge windows inside and a big balcony. It is very convenient to Yellowstone and close to a grocery store if you need anything. Can't say enough great things about this one. Book it! You will not be sorry...but will become a return customer. We plan on coming back every year! The story of the cabin in charming and lovely.

Fulfilled long time dream
As we have traveled over the years, I have wondered what it would be like to stay in one of those cabins you occasionally see peeking out on the hillside. By graciously sharing their cabin, Amber and Raymond allowed me to get the chance to find out!!! Cliff’s Cabin is the real deal, and I enjoyed the details down to the kitchen cabinets. Amber and Raymond provided those little extras like S’mores fixings and hot chocolate mix that made us feel even more at home. They were great about being available to answer questions and give advice but were never intrusive. We didn’t get to meet them because we were there a brief time, but staying there was the highlight of our 40th wedding anniversary driving trip of a couple thousand miles!

Million dollar views
Amber and Ray were the best hosts I've ever dealt with. The place is very special, and the welcome book explained the history of the property the cabin and Amber's art. Every corner had well thought out touches, including a fire pit, s'more supplies, Amber's art, and items from Cliff, the original owner and dear friend of the hosts. We even got a tour of the art studio on the property. And the property.... Wow. The ride up we didn't notice, but the ride down showed the entire Livingston area. Absolutely gorgeous. Ray gave us a suggested route down to Driggs ID, as it's the holiday weekend... We didn't hit any traffic. If I could give more than. 5 stars, this would be a 10. Thank you so much Amber and Ray.

What a Treasure!.
My wife and i stayed at Cliffs Cottage (this property) for one week, July 1 to July 8 2023. We had high expectations based on the listing and some communications we had with the owners prior to arrival. We can tell you that this experience EXCEEDED our expectations on every level. The property is an absolute gem, tucked away high above Livingston MT, in a secluded wooded area. The surrounding woods are spectacular; peaceful, quiet and just beautiful. We had a mule deer yearling visit us a few times to top it off! We have stayed in a variety of properties on vacations over the years and we have NEVER been so happy. To top it off, the hosts are the very best! They welcomed us on arrival and answered every question we had. The tour of Amber Jean studio just around the corner was a highlight of our stay. Just a first rate time, start to finish. We will be back; that is a promise. We can recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful, quiet getaway in the Montana mountains
