We really enjoyed our stay at Under Canvas. Montana Jim was great during our check-in, and all other staff was friendly and helpful as well. We loved the on-site restaurant and cute Bronco Bar. My only complaint was lukewarm coffee in the morning at the check-in tent. We will definitely stay at another Under Canvas site in our future travels!!

I’ve stayed at under canvas Bryce before and had such a lovely experience that I took it to West Yellowstone and was not disappointed. I’m not a traditional camper by any means but my boyfriend is. This was a perfect in between for us. He’s obsessed and we can’t wait to go back!

Fabulous glamping experience! Beautiful accommodations, tents spread far enough apart that it remains peaceful. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and eager to accommodate any requests. We needed more fire starter at 5AM and they came right out. The communal area has several table and fire pits to gather around. There was even solo musician singing last night. The stars at night are spectacular- I would highly recommend!

All the staff was so friendly, you can tell they truly enjoy their job. I definitely will be coming back either to the West Yellowstone or the Paradise Valley or maybe even a totally different location.
