Ponds cabin getaway

Awesome weather, trails were in great condition.The food is always delicious at Ponds. The location of the house was perfect for the trails we wanted to explore. Super clean and comfortable for the 6 of us.My only recommendation would be to streamline the dishes, pots and pans so there is room to put away groceries.

Well Stocked for a Group!

Beautiful home with everything your group needs to cook and eat! Well stocked with plenty of dishes/cups/pans etc. The laundry area entrance was great for taking off snowy/wet items and hanging up after a long day of snowmobiling. Loved the suitcase holders for unpacking. Loved that there were 2 areas to relax with plenty of seating. Within walking distance of small store and restaurant as well.

Christmas in IP!!!

Staying in Island Park made for the most magical Christmas ever!!! We are from Texas, so all the snow made us so happy! Casey was an amazing host! However, the owners of the property removed the Christmas tree before we got there and did not seem to communicate that with her. It broke our hearts, but Casey went above and beyond to track down a tree for us! The stay was incredible despite that hiccup! But, if you’re planning to go for Christmas, plan to supply your own tree if having one is important to you! We plan to return!

Beautiful Cabin in Island Park

We spent 6 days in this cabin and it did not disappoint! It was beautifully decorated and had everything you would need to spend a week in the cabin or come and go as we did. We have never stayed in a vacation rental that had such a well stocked kitchen, plus the snacks and jams along with the coffee was very thoughtful. We loved our stay and will definitely go back if we return to Yellowstone. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here. ❤️❤️❤️

Best rental on our entire journey!

This is the best stocked home we stayed in for our entire trip. We have driven almost 6k miles and stayed in several rentals. This one had everything we needed. Crockpot? How about 2! Waffle maker, tons of pots and pans, cooking utensils, and even an assortment of childrens plates, bowls, etc. We had ample room for our large party. It worked perfectly for our family.

Beautiful, Clean Cabin! We'd stay again!

This cabin is fantastic. It is clean, nice and well stocked with everything you can imagine as an overnight guest. It is located within driving distance of Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, Jackson Wyoming and the falls in Island Park. I would stay in this cabin again and I would recommend it to friends.

Clean, spacious, and comfortable.

Possibly the cleanest rental we've stayed at. Home was comfortable with plenty of seating for everyone to be together. Home is perfect as a base of operations for outdoor activities AND a comfortable place to unwind when not out and about. Very well stocked kitchen is always a win! Thanks to the hosts and site team for their kindness and professionalism.

Family West Trip 2023

We traveled across the west for our vacation and this cabin is where we lodged in Idaho. Let me say this: nothing, not one detail has been overlooked to make your stay wonderful. From every cooking utensil you would need to prepare meals, to wonderful mattresses on the beds, to stepstools for reaching tall cabinets, Netflix for family movie time and an abundance of linenins, it was juat peefect. This cabin has been the highlight of our accommodations this trip. Please dont pass this one up!
