About this property

Peaceful Slice of Paradise!Peaceful Slice of Paradise!



Paradise Valley Cottage is your comfortable home away from home set amongst giant willows and pine trees with a view of the Rocky Mountains. The cabin is a stand alone building on our ranch with a very private entrance. The cabin is centrally located between Livingston and Yellowstone National Park with easy access to all that Paradise Valley has to offer. Step onto the wood deck and flagstone patio to enjoy the magnificent mountain views and barbecue your favorite meal. Walk along Eight Mile Creek to our private pond and enjoy the music of the water flowing while gazing up at Emigrant Peak.

Five miles from the cottage is Chico Hot Springs. After a day of hiking or skiing this is the place to be to sooth your tired muscles and relax. Here you can catch a meal at the grill or make reservations for a more elegant dinner in the dining room. Later, you can take in a live band and dance the night away. On the way to Chico Hot Springs there is a general store with everything you can imagine and across the street is a post office, bank, deli, bakery and the Old Saloon where you can enjoy a fantastic breakfast, burger or your favorite beverage.

The biggest attraction is just 35 miles south - Yellowstone National Park. Besides the famous Old Faithful Geyser, you will see wildlife - bison, elk, bear, big horn sheep, and if you're really lucky, wolf. The Park has so many wonderful sights that one day is never enough. If you are able, hike some of the back trails to really experience the peaceful beauty and in the winter, take a snow coach tour, snowmobile, or cross-country ski to enjoy the silence and pristine beauty.

For all the fishermen out there, Yellowstone River is easily accessed by our private site, one-half mile from the cottage. Set your drift boat in the river or wade in to catch rainbow and brown trout. Whether you are fly fishing or bait fishing, Yellowstone River will not disappoint. In the summer, if you're look for a boating experience or want to sunbath at the beach of a lake, Daily Lake is 15 minutes away and swimming, sailing, fishing and windsurfing are some of the popular activities found on this lake.

In the town of Livingston, among all the necessities (grocery store, pharmacies) you will find museums, art galleries, a farmer's market on Wednesdays throughout the summer, restaurants and boutique shops. There is also an 18-hole golf course and Sacajawea Park which hosts the annual music summer fest in July. Wintertime brings to Livingston live plays at the Blue Slipper and Firehouse, seasonal events such as the Christmas Stroll, bazaar and New Years Dance at the Depot.

The Wrong Choice
The facility was nice, clean, and well equipped. In a state famous for views and beauty this place offered neither. From the cabin or porch you had a view of the side of a barn, a hay rack and the new privacy fence around the host' yard. And the road to the facility was horrible at best. Simply the wrong choice.

Home Away From Home
We had a wonderdul time staying at the cabin. We were looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and found it here. We plan to stay here again the next time we visit Chico.

Relaxing stay in a great location
Great location away from the commercialization of Gardiner. Property was clean, quiet and restful. Much larger than expected with plenty of room for 3 of us. Owner was on site, but left us on our own, which was perfect. The General Store nearby had everything we needed and more. The road to the property was a bit of a challenge the first time through, but became more and more fun as the week went by. Two restaurant/saloons nearby for our after park relaxing. Would most definitely return-highly recommend.

Peaceful Stay
This cottage is so cute and has everything you could need. We grilled out supper one evening. Nice comfortable bed, very clean and tasteful. We even had a black bear show up in the property one morning. There is a one mile stretch of road that is extremely rough so if you’re traveling in a car, be prepared to drive very very slow. Had we been in our truck or jeep it would have been easier. This is no fault to the owner, just a heads up. The cabin/cottage was perfect. I highly recommend!

Nice place inside One big room
The curb appeal is pretty rough but it is nice inside. Comfortable and clean. Not much for views from inside and it could use a few more curtains but it ended up being a good place to relax and sleep. The satellite internet comes and goes but the manager made extra effort to try to get us connected.

Beautiful Place In A Stunning Location
We loved our stay. The cottage was beautiful, furnishings very comfortable, and scenery the scenic setting was peaceful and incredibly scenic. Just one word of caution - access is via a rather rough dirt road so if you’re renting a car you may want to request an SUV or cross over vehicle. Highly recommended!

We were in Emigrant to attend a wedding and this lovely cottage was just minutes from the venue. It is very comfortable and private. The views are beautiful from the back porch while sipping your morning coffee. The cottage is very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay!

We were hoping for a real nice opportunity to feel like we were locals. We didn’t want to stay in a tourist spot like Gardiner and we were 45 min from Yellowstone National Park entrance. We loved this ranch house. We truly felt safe and comfy after our long day excursions to the park, horseback riding and Yellowstone river rafting. Super relaxing, you can’t help but relax with gorgeous views and beautiful horses an adorable pony, bunnies running around and chickens in their coup!

Roomy, comfortable unit.
The road to the site is full of large rocks and big holes, driving in is not pleasant The studio is much larger than it appears in pictures. The bed is the most comfortable we've had on our three week trip. Host shared fresh eggs.

Wonderful Place To Stay
We absolutely loved our stay, we couldn’t have found a better place to stay. It was so quiet and out of the way. We enjoyed the wildlife that are on the property. The owners were delightful and so accommodating.

The peaceful slice of paradise was perfect. It had a fully functioning kitchen, plenty of sleeping space and was very quiet. It was a shirt driving distance from the north entrance to Yellowstone and other beautiful hiking destinations. I hope to have this adventure again soon.

A Little Slice of Paradise: More Than A Name
Incredible! Stunning! Beautiful! Surrounded by mountains! Peaceful! It was the most perfect area to stay. Chico Hot Springs was only a few miles away. The bed was comfortable, kitchen was cute, and there were plenty of books to read. The dirt/gravel road was a beautiful walk in the morning to start each day. Sounds of water rushing through the creek running through the property was phenomenal! The only downfalls were not being able to really sit outside to eat due to the horse pasture and the manure being directly next to the porch. Also, the owner’s dogs would start barking fairly early. And man, the little road next to the property, Paradise Ranch Road, horribly bumpy! Nothing the owners can do about that. Oh, a few more wash cloths would be helpful. 😉 I was able to do some astrophotography one night, watched a wonderful storm roll in, saw beautiful rainbows, watched the mountain bluebirds by their nest, and thoroughly enjoyed the bunnies playful exuberance each day. One was even eating under the chair I had fallen asleep in. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Thank you for hosting us. We’re sorry we lost the keys, but we’re happy we were able to replace them for you!
