"It is the perfect spot for a trip into Yellowstone NP near Lamar Valley. They had family friendly games and a bonfire area. They had everything you need for the kitchen. The only thing they did not provide was shampoo but we made do with what we had. The check in process was easy and quick and she was very friendly."

10/10 Excellent
"Given the specifics of the house I knew I was in for a great experience but it was far beyond my expectations. The seclusion and privacy that accompanied the house was amazing. We only had to walk outside and were able to hike not only the short trek to Bridal Falls but also could head west and soon be on the Bannock ski trail that took us right in to Yellowstone.We could walk up the road to to enjoy the delicious ice cream at Stop the Car Trading PostThe house was meticulously clean and full of personal mementoes that made it feel so cozyMendy was always just a text away for me with any last minute questionsNothing like a cup of coffee on the balcony while the mule deer grazed in the yard!"

"I just finished a 3 day trip and I would stay here again. If you want a rustic experience then it’s perfect. I was traveling solo and it had everything I needed and I love the location. With that said, next time I come out, if my wife comes with we’ll probably have to find something more modern and with more space. But she is not really the outdoors/rustic type and would have probably struggled. This cabin truly has the rustic feel which is exactly what I wanted. Comfortable bed, electric heat panel which worked great, good hot water, good shower pressure, and if you need WiFi that also works well"
