Great house-wonderful stay-perfect vacation!

The house is really perfect-plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The area around house was great-loved driving down the road to watch the grizzlies and elk-we heard reports of a moose and two calves but were unable to locate them. All this before we even got into Yellowstone.

Our party of 7 siblings and spouses absolutely loved staying here. The house and views were magnificent. The house was so well appointed and stocked with so many essentials. We had never experienced that in our many other stays. The house was in good proximity to Yellowstone which made accessing the park very easy. Suzette was very easy to communicate with and gave us a great tip for bear watching about 2 miles from the house which we did on 2 different nights. I can’t race enough about this house! Make it your next stay if in this area!!

Perfect Home for a Family Getaway!Our family trip to Montana was an unforgettable experience, thanks in large to this wonderful home. Suzette, our host, was responsive, helpful, and make the entire process smooth from start to finish. The house was exactly what we needed for our group of ten-spacious, clean, and fully stocked with all the basic amenities and more. There was plenty of room everyone to relax comfortably, and the wraparound porch with its beautiful views quickly became our favorite spot to begin and end each day.We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Suzette, for hosting us!

Stunning and very welcoming

The property is one of the best place I stayed! The lodge is so beautiful and surroundings are just stunning. It is very spacious with 6 bedrooms plus gym, game room space, 2 living room spaces. The place is well-stocked, you will find anything you need. The property manager was very responsive and kind with her replies. It is a bit of additional drive to Yellowstone but it’s totally worth it! I am already day dreaming about next trip to Yellowstone.

Beautiful, peaceful location.

This home has a well appointed kitchen and bar. It was very clean and spacious. Perfect for a family reunion. The gazebo is a nice spot to have coffee in the morning where the only sound you hear is the river flowing below. Half hour ride to Yellowstone, about an hour and 20 minutes from the Bozeman airport. Check in was easy and had we had no issues with the home at all.

Fantastic rental!

We had a great time at this property. The house is gorgeous and the panoramic view of Tom Miner Basin was spectacular. Even when we weren't in Yellowstone NP, we still felt like we were on a vacation while at the house. Suzette responded to texts nearly instantly and we were really pleased with her communication and how helpful she was from start to finish. She even let us check in early which was super helpful given we had two young children in tow. Highly recommend.

Photos don’t do it justice at all!

This property is absolutely amazing! There were 10 adults in our group and we were all very comfortable in the house. We spent a lot of time out on the deck with jaw dropping views of the hills. Each night about an hour and a half before dark, we would drive up Tom Miner Creek Road to look for wildlife (mainly grizzlies). One night we saw 6! I enjoyed these drives so much as the area is like something out of a postcard. I can’t recommend it enough!

Perfect place for our family reunion. The views were magnificent, property immaculate. This was like being in someone’s home, not a rental. It was a bit of a drive but so worth it. Kitchen has got everything you could possibly need. The wrap around porch made it possible to enjoy the views no matter what the weather.

Brown family retreat

This property and Suzette were both wonderful. House was fabulous in every respect. Location and surrounding scenery was spectacular. House provided every amenity. Great for family retreat. Our family try to have a retreat every year in a new house and location. This matched the best. VRBO handles the arrangement in a professional fashion. I will continue the relationship. Every thing five star. Suzette great. I could go on and on. Thanks again. Richard Brown and family. July 13, 2025

Perfect Mountain Getaway

This home is indescribable. We loved every moment of our time here. The views are spectacular, the animal watching is captivating, and the house is stunning. EVERY detail has been considered by the host, from bear spray to waders to extra toiletries in the laundry room. This property has it all. We are already thinking about how to find our way back here! 10/10 would recommend. The only thing to note is a broken bridge, which extended our drive to Yellowstone from 20 to 40 minutes. The drive was beautiful, so we didn’t mind!

Family vacation

The house is simply amazing! Beautiful views from the deck which wraps around the entire house. It’s a long drive up the mountain but it’s worth it! Suzette is wonderful to deal with. She always responded right away if we needed anything! If you are wanting a beautiful house with great views in Montana and close to Yellowstone Park, this is the one. I highly recommend it.

Beautiful Montana Retreat

This property is gorgeous. It has breathtaking views from every angle and wrap around decks as well as multiple seating areas to maximize your enjoyment of the spectacular mountain surroundings. We ate breakfast every morning under the covered eating area where you can hear the sounds of the rushing river below and cooked s’mores at night in the fireplace on the gazebo. The house is fully stocked with the hosts graciously thinking of everything you might need from two coffee pots to extra towels and linens to bear spray and back country book bags. Suzette, the property manager, is very responsive and helpful. Be prepared for a bit of a bumpy ride up because the road is gravel and rutted in places, but it’s worth it to stay here.

Only one drawback …..

Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! The only drawback was the fact that the entrance road was quite long, rocky with huge potholes and added about a 20 minute trip to each and every trip in and out of the property😳. I understand that it is a county maintained road. However, a heads up would’ve been much appreciated. Would definitely return. Suzette is a gem I can’t say enough good things about her.❤️

Beyond all expectations!

This house immediately felt like a home. It exudes warmth. It is spacious, well appointed, incredibly comfortable, and casually luxurious. From the handsome living area to the sumptuous bedrooms, roomy bathrooms, wrap around porch and the outdoor dining room, our family of 7 adults enjoyed every space with room leftover. The kitchen is very well equipped which was important for us as we hired a chef to come in and prepare dinners every night. The house is about a 45 minute easy drive to the entrance of the park. We thoroughly enjoyed observing wildlife including a pack of twelve wolves with Audra from Lamar Valley Touring! After leaving the park we would go home and observe grizzly bears from the house with a scope. Unbelievable! Morning coffee included binoculars in order to watch deer and birds and other wildlife. Suzette was easily accessible for any questions or needs. We had none. This property spoiled us all. Wish we could have stayed longer.
