Nice well stocked kitchen for cooking. Bathroom had lots of storage. Easy to move our stuff in and a parking spot. Large deck with a BBQ grill to watch the stars. Unit was clean and nice to have washer/dryer. Plenty of extra linens for our group. Good location in town just a couple blocks off the main street.
Will definitely stay here again.
We stayed at the loft. It had everything that we needed, and it was a great location for visiting Teddy Roosevelt national Park, and other parks in the area. Lots of nice restaurants close by.
It was a great get a way. The drive in and out of north gate of Yellowstone was a little surprising but after the first time it was ok. When driving up to the loft we quickly learned to use the all wheel drive on our car due to steep road. No huge problem and well worth it when we saw the loft. It is BEAUTIFUL!!! And very comfortable. On the way home we were talking about how quiet and peaceful it was. I will say- the best place I have ever stayed!!! Would not change anything!!
The close proximity to Yellowstone National Park was great. We spent 12+ hours each day in the park, the short drive from the north entrance to the house amazing. We enjoyed the deck and quiet evenings.
This place was perfect for our family of 4! It was clean and had everything we needed for cooking. Beds and bedding were comfortable too. Thankfully, laundry detergent was also provided. We grilled out on the deck in the evenings and saw elk and pronghorn in the distance. We would definitely stay here again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Archview Loft in Gardner. We had three adults, and it was perfect for our needs as we vacationed in Yellowstone. Great views of the valley providing a good vantage point for observing wildlife with my spotting scope. This unit was a great place to unwind after our daily adventures in the park. We liked having the washer and dryer, and the location to the grocery store was very convenient. Would definitely stay here again on our next trip out west!
Our family of 4 found the accommodations spacious and appreciated being close to the grocery store. Easy walk into town, and quick drive into Yellowstone. I thought property was even nicer in person than I expected from the photos.
Loved everything especially the child proof fencing around outside overlook areas, the ping pong table downstairs, well stocked kitchen. The loft was actually bigger than the pictures make it look.
You cannot beat the beautiful mountain views from this property. We saw elk in our yard each morning along with several rabbits. The property itself is very clean and comfortable with every needed amenity available. It was a bit hard to find, which would be my only complaint. The property is not up on a hill, but is actually down in bottom of a hill (at least the entrance). Property is called “The Loft.” If you see water tower, you’ve gone too far. Hope this helps someone. Overall was very pleased with our stay.
We had a great time at the loft. It was perfect for our family - 2 adults and 2 kids. The kids loved the ping pong and the adults loved the beautiful views from the deck and drinking coffee watching the mule deer in the morning. The space was well appointed and had everything we needed. Gardiner is a cute town and nice and close to the North entrance. We would definitely stay here again.
This was our 4th trip to Yellowstone & our very favorite place to stay yet. It is spacious, but not overly big. It was absolutely perfect for me, my husband, our 1.5 year old son & my dad! The view from the kitchen a balcony is INCREDIBLE. It had everything we needed for both adults and my son! We will probably break our rule of staying in different places every time we visit to stay here again, because we loved it that much! The owners are so easy to communicate with. We had zero issues! Highly recommend. (Also if you’re new to the area, it is right by the North Entrance & walking distance to everything else you need in town).
This is a great little place with everything we needed to come back "home" to after we ventured into Yellowstone each day The hosts were also very friendly and helpful! We've stayed in a handful of places in Gardiner and this is one we'll happily return to.
The Loft was just perfect for our family. With one bedroom plus the loft with a big bed and the couch that can pull out to another bed, this space is perfect for a family of 4 or less (possibly 5). We had ample room to spread out when we weren’t in Yellowstone exploring. The beds were comfortable and other amenities including washer and dryer, internet, and tv are great added features. There is even a common space shared by the main house with extra activities; we did not use them as we spent our time in the park. Brena and Mike have a little book right on the table with all the important info you need; including their numbers in case you need to get a hold of them. We will definitely be staying here again!!!
Nice property, well kept. Short walking distance to town, but on a steep gravel road. Didn’t bother our family but may be a consideration for others. Great view from the deck and living room of the park.
We loved our stay. It was very comfortable for our family of 5. Extremely convenient to visit Yellowstone every day. The house had everything you could ever need and the kids went crazy over the ping pong table in the basement. We would love to visit again.

Fantastic location and lovely views. We especially liked that it wasn't in the middle of town. The loft was stocked with everything we needed, all we had to do was get groceries. You can see the North Entrance to Yellowstone from the property which is exactly why we wanted to stay in Gardner. The town has all accomodations necessary and then some, making it a great place to stay just outside of the national park. There's isn't much of a yard for the loft but we were in the park all day long so the spacious deck was ample outdoor space and a perfect place to end the evening.
There were 2 somewhat minor things that I wasn't completely satisfied with.
Firsts, the cleaning wasn't quite up to par (Details matter, like some splatter on the walls around the toilet, hair on the floor behind and around the base of the toilet, pink mildew around the sink and shower drains, and remnants of soap bars from previous guests dried on the shower ledge. Nothing I couldn't remedy with the porvided cleaning supplies but I'd rather not have to.) And the common area listed in the property description is still closed due to "COVID", which is no longer a precaution that needs to be in place. It should be removed from the listing or made available.
The Loft was a great property that has everything we needed for a great vacation place to stay. The location was great and everything worked fine. Also, very close to Yellowstone National Park. Highly recommend this vacation loft to anyone needing a place to stay while in this area.
We stayed at 14 Archview and were so impressed with the property. It’s proximity to Yellowstone’s north entrance and access to all there is to do in Gardiner was perfect. The views from the balcony are as advertised. This was one of the best vacation experiences we have ever had. Thanks again!!

About the host
Hosted by Brena McNulty
Mike and Brena' McNulty We came to Gardiner in 1983, originally for just a few month to help build the Best Western Motel, and soon fell in love with it and decided it would be a great place to raise our two daughters Naisha and Kayla, they both now live in Washington. Mike delivers the mail in YNP in the summer months and retires in the winter. Brena works for Alaska Airlines as a flight attendant.
Why they chose this property
We originally bought the house that is located below this house, and in 2006 sold it but kept the upper lot where our house now sits. We started building the house the summer of 2006 for a family home and decided we didn't need this much house since both our girls are married.
What makes this property unique
Incredible views of Montana’s mountain ranges and Yellowstone Park. Only one mile from the North Entrance of Yellowstone. Wildlife, such as deer and elk, are frequent visitors to the property. Owner lives on site available to answer questions or help with your travel plans.
