Amazing! Bonnie was a great communicator and we loved the place! Great views from every window, fantastic kitchen, and more wildlife than we saw in Yellowstone. We also watched 3 bald eagles down in the river in front of us. Thank you Bonnie for such a great time in your wonderful place.

Holy Cow, right on the border of Yellowstone park..!! The views from the upper deck were amazing and it was nice falling asleep to the flow of Yellowstone River at night. The place is super clean, feels brand new and the gas fireplace was perfect..!! 5 stars for sure for this fantastic location.

The Standard-Bearer for Exceptional!

My family has both stayed at and owned many vacation rentals. This home was by far one of the cleanest and well appointed homes we have had the privilege to stay. Bonnie has an eye for detail and a personal touch offering insights and suggestions for exploring Yellowstone. The location is perfect and serene after a long day exploring the park. Absolutely recommend!

Perfect relaxation in such a perfect chalet

We stayed at the chalet for 5 nights and was an absolute fabulous vacation. Accommodations were clean, modern, comfortable and all with views of picturesque Yellowstone/Gardiner area. Bonnie Lynn was very welcoming and communicative with us and offered her help and recommendations for anything we might have needed. The nearby elk, bison, antelope and osprey welcomed us as well, and we even got to hear the elk bugling right outside the bedroom window! Was such a great stay in a fantastic home in Gardiner MT...would highly recommend to anyone!!!

Wow and Thank You Bonnie!

The house is very well appointed with everything needed from comforts to the kitchen. The home is beautiful and the views are spectacular. Yellowstone is just down the road as well as the town of Gardiner. We were lucky enough to see Elk and Pronghorn herds from balcony nearly everyday of our week’s stay as well as a nest of Osprey and many birds. Bonnie is an excellent host and communicator and we cannot thank her enough!

Yellowstone Trip

Loved the house! We wanted to stay in a house that had the Montana views and this was perfect! It was about 10 minutes to the Northwest entrance to Yellowstone. Saw elk and antelope every day at the house. How cool is that?! Kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed. Will stay here again if we get out this way. Bonnie was a great host!

Cannot Wait to Return

Bonnie is the best host. She’s very communicative and helpful with park info and tour guides. The property is pristine, kitchen is fully stocked with all cookware, and the Blackstone Cooktop on the porch is awesome. Love Gardiner, town is awesome and right on the park boundary. Wildlife was abundant, we saw more elk on the property than we did at the park! 10/10 would recommend.

Dream Home for Our Yellowstone Adventures

This property provided a perfect home base for our time in Yellowstone! We’ve stayed at many vacation rentals and this was the most clean and well-stocked one we’ve ever had. You can tell that the host, Bonnie, puts a lot of time and consideration into preparing her home for guests. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals, the location on the river made it ideal for my husband and son to go fishing right off the property, and the proximity to the north entrance of Yellowstone could not be beat! The home was also incredibly clean, and Bonnie was such a gracious host. She was available to answer all of our questions about the area, and made us feel very at home. We highly recommend this property! You will love your time there!

Beautiful Yellowstone Escape

This home is beautiful, immaculately clean and incredibly well appointed with everything we could possibly need. We loved feeding the neighbor’s horses carrots at night and watching the wildlife. It’s a very peaceful and beautiful property. This is also a great location to the park for our day trips. Bonnie is very responsive and helpful. Our family really enjoyed our stay. The only drawback in my option is the motorhome and large storage container (not pictured on vrbo) that detract from the lovely views. Separately, I understand that it’s bear country which complicates rules for trash removal, but I would suggest this be handled and covered with the cleaning fees for a better experience so that guests do not have to haul garbage into town or the park.

Fantastic Montana Experience!!

Our family absolutely LOVED the chalet! The property was just as advertised... the living room and kitchen were up to date and very cozy. The Master bedroom view was amazing. And nothing can beat the view from the balcony. My husband and I loved our quiet time in the mornings on the balcony. An entire heard of elk joined us the first two mornings, and we always saw 2-3 pronghorn deer on the way into Gardiner. We also enjoyed watching the family of marmots or "chunky squirrels" as my son referred to them. The quick drive into Yellowstone was fantastic. We would highly recommend this property to anyone that wants to enjoy the beauty of Montana and Yellowstone in a beautiful yet cozy home.

Better than I imagined!!

Bonnie is an excellent host and she was always available for questions and a great communicator. MY family and I were blown away by her property. You can tell she spared no expense and paid attention to every detail in the house. The house has everything you need. The living room alone has the best view of the mountains and wildlife. That room alone is worth the price of admission. The home's proximity to Yellowstone's North entrance is a very short drive. The town of Gardiner is very charming. Bonnie is an excellent host and we would love to stay here again. Don't hesitate to book this property. You will not regret it.

Absolute Perfection!!

Bonnie was a most gracious host. From gathering information about her property, recommendations for our Yellowstone visits, as well as recommendations for our Wildlife guide, Bonnies guidance was spot on. Her Chalet is immaculate. We wondered if anyone else had ever stayed there before....everything was that clean and modern. Check in was a breeze. The views from the balcony were nothing less than stunning. On check in day we had a small herd of elk standing in the river directly behind her property. Elk bugling all around us, Wolves howling in the distance, and Yellowstone park just 300 feet away.....Spectacular!!!! You can fish in the Yellowstone river directly behind the property. Make this VRBO Chalet your go to place to call a home away from home....you won't be disappointed!!

Simply perfection

Simply perfect! It's hard to imagine coming back to Yellowstone and wanting to stay anywhere else. The amount of thought and detail Bonnie poured into this place is impeccable. It is only rivaled by her excellent communication skills and hostess abilities. You walk into this home and want for nothing. And yes, I call it a home because it does feel like a very cared for home and not just a house. If there weren't so many natural wonders to see in Yellowstone, you'd never want to leave Bonnie's place. The next time I visit, I plan to schedule a day just to take in the view from the balcony and enjoy relaxing at the house. Bonnie is a delight, and I enjoyed every interaction. I appreciate her going above and beyond for us. Don't think twice and book this as your home base for your Yellowstone adventures. Bonnie, thank you for making our first trip to Yellowstone absolute perfection!!

Amazing stay in Gardiner

Bonnie's home was the perfect place to end each day after a visit to Yellowstone. Staying in her amazing home made a great vacation even better! The property was extremely clean and homey. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is amazing! It had absolutely everything you need to cook a meal and more! It was by far the most well-stocked kitchen I have ever seen in a vacation rental. The view from the living room is beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the wrap around balcony & watching the wildlife that would appear on the property. The living room has a wonderful gas fireplace that we enjoyed each evening.The view of the night sky is also amazing! Bonnie is the ultimate host. Soon after we booked her home, she reached out to confirm the booking and to offer additional information about her property and the surrounding area. She provided excellent tips about how to make the most of our visit to Yellowstone. She periodically reached out prior to our arrival to see if we had any questions and she was always available if we needed anything before or during our trip. If you do not want to stay in the park (which can be rather busy and crowded). Bonnie's home is the perfect choice! The home is very close to the Gardiner Market if you need groceries or other supplies. It is just short drive to the North entrance of Yellowstone, where there was never a wait to enter the park. Book Bonnie’s amazing vacation chalet! You will be so glad you did!

Bonnie Lynn was a wonderful host. She communicated well leading up to our vacation giving us fun activities to do in Gardiner knowing the North entrance was closed to the public. We loved sitting on the expansive deck and watching the wildlife come into the yard. The location was perfect as it was so close to town. We loved our stay!

Close, clean & quiet

Well appointed two bedroom. Super clean & quiet respite after long days hiking and fishing in Yellowstone. Hard to get much closer to the park, the Chalet connects to the park via the Old Yellowstone trail, only 10 minutes to the park and Gardiner. The balcony in the evenings is a great place to relax, view the Elk as the graze 50 feet from the house, have a nightcap and then watch the stars. Bonnie is a great host and a wealth of knowledge on the park and the area to help plan your visit. Thanks for a great visit!
