It was just odd that everything was done on line. When I received a text to check-in i thought it was just to expedite the process. No that is how you check-in and your room is unlocked and you message when you arrive and leave. When i received the text I didn't have service for the day. It was just weird, its just technology.

Good stay

Just stayed for a quick over night stay. Cute little cabin. Bed was a little hard but decent. Great check in directions. Loved not having to check in at an office by a specific time and letting the host know we left by text. VERY convient.

Check in was a breeze. We never saw a staff member, it was all virtual. The bed was soft and comfortable, but during my initial inspection, I found the sheets were covered in human and pet hair, and there was also debris. I let the staff know by text, and they responded promptly, then had a manager contact me. He sent someone to change the sheets while we were out. The sheets still had hair on them, perhaps from the laundry, or maybe from the floor, which also had hair and dirt. This is a pet friendly facility. I don't have pets, so the hair probably bothered us more than it would a pet owner. The scenery nearby is beautiful.

I loved these cabins, such a unique idea! The only trouble we had is because we arrived after dark it was a little challenging to find which cabin was ours. I hope they get illuminated signs that won't attract the bugs. There is no front desk so they texted us the info and we were able to go straight to the cabin. No time wasted. But also, no breakfast options. There is a General Store close by that had hot breakfast options.

Nice rustic location.

They have virtual registration which is easy. The place is very cute and we had plenty of towels. We were only staying one night but a nice area to vacation. Convenient to Yellowstone. We ate Dinner at Anglers restaurant located on the sister hotel. Everything was nice and easy. They respond quickly to requests.
