Breathtaking Views of Yellowstone on the Yellowstone River in a Luxury Lodge!

We have an absolutely ideal location... amazing views and convenience too..

AND the home has been entirely renovated. So be prepared to enjoy many new improvements - hard wood floors, kitchen with granite counter tops, new windows, recycled wood ceiling and beams, updated private bedroom/bathroom suites through out, new furniture, game room with pool table, ping pong table and more....

Start your days watching the gorgeous sunrise on Electric Peak (one of the highest mountains in Yellowstone National Park) right from the breakfast table with the gentle sounds of the Yellowstone River flowing by the property. Our lodge is perched above the Yellowstone River with an expansive view overlooking Yellowstone National Park. Wildlife abounds! Watch eagles, osprey and ravens soar over the River. From the dining room or deck off the back, we've watched a wolf pack pursue and take down a pronghorn, eagles catching fish in the river, bison herds grazing, elk swimming across the river and a pronghorn give birth to twins! You never know what you may see - it can be utterly amazing wildlife encounters or simply the awe inspiring beauty of the mountains and river. Our view is south facing, so there's lots of sunlight to soak in all day long. At the end of the day, grill in the yard and let the kids play on the swing set or just sit on the deck while you watch the sunset reflections on the river and enjoy the 'big sky' views of Montana and Yellowstone.

The convenience of our property will make your vacation feel simplified and relaxed. You can walk to the grocery store, restaurants, ice cream and pizza too...check out the bookstore, gift shops or even white water rafting outfitters where they'll 'suit you up' and take you rafting down the river, right by your vacation home! The Roosevelt Arch at the northern entrance to Yellowstone National Park is just a mile away. And just a couple miles from there, you can soak in the Boiling River - the hot springs in Yellowstone Park. There's A LOT to experience in Yellowstone (we certainly love it!) and we'd be happy to point you in the right direction and help make it a vacation of a lifetime for you.

What's nearby

  • The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone offers different dramatic looks and moods dependent on the time of day. The falls are luminous in the morning. In the evening when this photo was taken, the canyon takes on a soft, almost painterly light. If you can, make a visit right after sunrise and return for the sunset.

  • We visited this location but ideally needed to be there in the afternoon as the sun was on the "wrong" side of the arch. I used a wide lens to capture the arch and didn't attempt to correct the distortion as I felt it added to the picture (for me anyway). It took a long time to get this without hoardes of people in the shot.

This was a perfect place to stay for our large extended family. The house is beautiful and has so many fun things to do. Gardiner is a great place to stay to visit Yellowstone and has lots of other fun activities. There are a number of restaurants and shops within walking distance. The elk all over town were wonderful.

Yellowstone multigenerational family vacation

This welcoming, comfortable home had everything for our group of 8. We enjoyed morning coffee on the back deck overlooking the river, walking into Gardiner, rafting on the river, home cooked meals and eating at the restaurants, cocktail time in the evenings around the fire pit looking at the stars and 4 glorious days in Yellowstone National Park. Terrific host.

Great place for large group visiting Yellowstone

Property is beautiful and has all amenities needed for a large group. The host left us fresh scones that were delicious. Easy check-in once I figured out the communication via VRBO. We did notice that something was likely left at the property but we have not yet recovered it. Hopefully the cleaning crew found and reports it.

Great View

We enjoyed our stay. The view of the Yellowstone River can't be beat. While drinking morning coffee, I watched an elk go down to the river, drink, swim and roll around on its back. We used the three upstairs bedrooms. The downstairs rooms were a bit cold despite turning the heat on. High quality appliances and a well stocked kitchen. I would stay here again.

Perfect!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The set-up, location and atmosphere was perfect. Upon arrival delicious scones were left . Dorothy was super and extremely helpful in providing any assistance. She even dropped off a wonderful treat of caramels. Our time in Yellowstone was enhanced by staying here. We loved coming back at the end of the day to relax. The whole family ages 21/2 to 67yrs loved this house. We can’t recommend it enough!

Family getaway

Stayed in this lovely home with our 4 adult sons and a few significant others-have never vacationed with all my kids as adults. WONDERFUL place. Extremely clean and right on the river. Location couldn’t have been better. 5 minutes to north entrance of Yellowstone. Everything we needed in a great kitchen, several places to hang out. Lots of privacy with each of the 5 bedrooms having their own bathrooms. Dorothy went the extra mile with coffee and scones and lovely birthday flowers and sign for me-loved it. Thanks for sharing your lovely place!

Amazing views!

We loved how close this property is to Yellowstone’s north entrance compared to other listings, and it seems they have the best view in town! The mountains and Yellowstone River in the backyard are breathtaking. It was a bonus to have a well designed home with 5 beds and 5 baths for all of us to spread out, along with the owners artwork throughout. The kids loved the downstairs game room, and we loved the spacious and artistic dining room table and the stocked kitchen so we could make all of our meals in house and simply enjoy the view! Dorothy was an amazing host with communications and she left us delicious treats. We would highly recommend this property!

Amazing!

What a perfect place to stay. The views were spectacular. Had Elk walk across backyard. Elk in front yard. Plenty of room for all of us, 5 adults and 5 children. Easy access to North Entrance of Yellowstone. Enjoyed Yellowstone Hot Springs, only a 10 minute ride. And Dorothy was such a big help the whole year before we came. Always a quick response in an email, or even called me to tell me a few things. And the scones were delicious. The kids fought over who got seconds. And the pieces of caramel candy were a nice surprise. Thanks again for the hospitality.

Made memories!

This was a great house for our children and grandchildren as we celebrated my husband’s retirement. The location to Yellowstone National Park was very convenient and we were able to walk to nearby restaurants. The house had beautiful artwork throughout. I loved the large dining table that was like a shadow box full of artifacts. Every bedroom had their own bathroom, each was unique with rustic decor. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals at home. Dorothy was great to work with and very attentive with any problems that came up. The best part was the wildlife we could see from the deck overlooking the River.

Beautiful home and wonderful people

This house is absolutely stunning! The decor and attention to detail in the furniture and art added so much to the experience of Yellowstone! We loved the river outside and spent every morning drinking coffee and every afternoon watching the elk! Lots of room for the family and the pool table was a hit for game night! We lived the books, games and puzzles! Our favorite was the beautiful dining room table with Shirl Ireland’s art and imagination. Truly unique and stunning! If you fish, go to the old Yellowstone trail across the river and fish the Yellowstone!!! Finally, Dorothy made this visit extra special. She handles all of our questions quickly and left us wonderful scones! One of the best houses we have ever stayed in! We even saw a bear the last morning!!

Montana side of Yellowstone

We enjoyed our Yellowstone trip more than any previous times. Shirl and her property manager Dorothy made our stay perfect; all questions preceding our arrival were promptly answered and during our stay. We saw elk, an eagle, and daily from the back porch over the Yellowstone river and watched big horn sheep through the spotting scope they had set up in the house. There were delicious scones on the table so didn't have to run out our first morning for breakfast or coffee. We had 5 adult couples and all found their rooms with ensuite bathrooms to be most convenience and excellent for their privacy. We would definitely stay with Shirl again. We found the north entrance to the park to be less crowded and more animals to observe. Thank you for sharing your very special home.

This house was all we hoped it would be and we would happily stay there again. In the morning, the view of sunrise on Electric Peak with the rushing water of the Yellowstone below was spectacular. The house is beautiful - the common areas and kitchen were spacious, easily accommodating us. We loved the artwork created by the owners. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to fix our meals. The entrance to Yellowstone Park is less than a 5 minute drive. The house is located on the main street through town, but we did not find this to be a problem. Communication with the house manager was easy - she always replied quickly. An excellent property.

Great location, very relaxing and beautiful view. Very spacious! the only thing that I was disappointed in- how close the houses and town was to the house. The pictures taken make it look like no one else was around the house, when in fact there is a hotel and stores right across the street. So that part was disappointing, no mention of any of it in the listing.
