Beautiful Place
The house was beautiful with plenty of space. We didn't spend much time there because we were going to Yellowstone each day. Everything that you need is there! Everything from pots pans, utensils, seasoning, laundry, towels, grill and Keurig coffee maker, games and all the comforts of your own home. It's located down a private road which is quiet and beautiful, with other similar house styles. If you are looking for something nestled in the country where you have your privacy, I'd definitely recommend it. Bonus was we saw a fox hunting right across the road the day we were leaving!

Perfect stay for Yellowstone
New and clean, exceptionally comfortable, roomy, and well stocked. Off the beaten path in a quiet and gated rustic foothills community surrounded by mountainous scenery. About 25 minutes from the West gate and West Yellowstone. Family loved it! Bring in initial groceries. Only recommendation to the hosts would be provide bottled waters or snacks/fruit for guests as we arrived very late from Bozeman airport due to delays and had trouble finding anything open other than the gas station. Will stay again!

Attention to details
Before even renting the property, Ty was impressively prompt answering questions I messaged. My family and I continued to be impressed by the property. We came to snowmobile in the area and the home worked very well. The public trailer parking lot just before the road to the home worked well for our very large enclosed trailer. The home itself was clean and smelled amazing when we arrived. The home itself is well built and arranged perfectly for a comfortable stay. The lock was easy to use. Thoughtful touches by the managing group or owner, I am not sure, went a long way. This included having all sizes of pots and pans of nice quality, instantpot, grittle, good blender, good quality blender, grill out back with extra propane tank. Extra garbage bags readily available and organized in a way that makes sense. Plenty of dish soap and dish washer soap. Detergent for laundry. Storage containers. Saran wrap. Salt and pepper, sugar, flour. Bathrooms had shampoo, conditioner and body soap. Plenty of towels and wash clothes. There were extra blankets to snuggle on the couch with. We love this house and the managers/owner made it easy to be there with simple thoughtful add ons in the house. The driveway angle is too tight for any trailer but again, the lot prior to the road in worked perfectly. It snowed every day and the road was plowed well. Even during our stay Ty was prompt with questions. All these things above are not standard in homes we’ve stayed in before. We had a blast snowmobiling in the back country around Island Park. The house was our oasis. Thank you! We will stay again!
