About this property

Yellowstone Retreat Rentals UA: two blocks from Yellowstone!

Welcome to Yellowstone Retreat Rentals! Built in 2021, our two bedroom one bathroom apartments carry all the necessities you need to visit Yellowstone. The apartment is located only four blocks from the historic Roosevelt Arch, the North Entrance to Yellowstone. We are also located a few blocks from Arch Park, which provides grills, a gazebo and picnic tables, and the neighborhood elk that tend to hang out there. With our convenient location, you will also be close to all of the wonderful shops and restaurants our little town has to offer. We have BRAND NEW MATTRESSES delivered in April of 2025.
As mentioned above, each unit has two bedrooms and one bathroom. It also has a laundry room, washer and dryer, with laundry soap and dryer sheets provided (nice for those guests who have been traveling for a bit!). There is a queen bed in each bedroom, and there is a queen size sleeper sofa in the living room. We provide extra blankets, pillows, and sheet sets for the sleeper sofa. The bathroom has a tub/shower combo, as well as hairdryer and towels provided. We have a full kitchen with a full size oven, fridge, microwave, and dishwasher. All of the basic kitchen essentials are provided along with dish soap. You cannot carry bear spray on the airplane, which is why we provide it for you! It is located above the microwave in the kitchen. Parking in Gardiner can be a struggle - not here! There is one parking spot per unit provided, right in front of the building. There is also a paved handicapped spot right in front of our ADA unit for those in need of it.

Some important things to note :
*We DO NOT provide cable TV. We have Smart TVs and you have the ability to log in to any streaming service you carry. We have the best WIFI plan available to accommodate our working travelers and those who want to relax with a movie after a long day in the park.
*Our air conditioning unit (our AC is not central air) is located in the living room, and tower fans are provided in the closet of each bedroom.
*If you are sensitive to noise, we would recommend getting a top floor unit. We worked with our contractor to do all we can to prevent noise transference, but these are apartments with two upper units, and two lower units. We also enforce quiet time from 10pm-7am, and no parties are allowed at our apartment.
*For our ADA unit: The countertops and cabinets are lower, and there is no under sink storage in the bathroom or kitchen to accommodate our guests in wheelchairs.

We are a small family business, and love what we do. We take great pride in our business, and want to provide each guest with a 5 star experience! We call this beautiful place our home, and sharing it with our guests is a great pleasure. Please inquire with any questions you may have, we look forward to seeing you soon!

Unit A is in the "Brown Building". It's a compliant ADA Unit with wheelchair access throughout the whole apartment and a reserved, paved parking spot. When looking at the building, it's the ground floor unit on the left.

This worked great for us. We asked for a bottom unit and it worked great for our party who can’t climb stairs well. It was clean and well organized. Of course for us it would have been better to have a couple of regular height chairs, but we managed fine. We certainly recommend it as a great place to stay.

Yellowstone visit

There is no counter in the bathroom to place any personal care items. This is listed as ADA property but has high table and bar stools. The bathtub does have grab rails but would be much better if it was a walk in shower.

Clean place, good location.

We had a ok stay at this place. 4 adults and 2 kids. There are two bedrooms and kids took the couch. This place is clean, but very cheaply put together, terrible mattresses (the host has been made aware of this by the looks of it on this site and a communication book at the property). There could really be another chair in the living room area. The host had great communication.

Clean, convenient condo, sooooo close to North Entrance

This condo worked perfectly for our party of 5. The place was very clean, nicely decorated in a minimalist style. And soooo close to the Roosevelt gate. 1 minute away. The host(ess) was so responsive to our request. We ended up rolling into Gardiner ahead of schedule with groceries that needed refrigeration so I reached out to see if an earlier check in was possible. We received a quick reply of "Yes", saying they had just finished cleaning the condo and we could check in early. This was super helpful! The condo also included ADA information on Yellowstone which was very helfpul since we were traveling with our 84 year old parents. The only negative for us was only having one bathroom and the couch area was a little sparse for gathering. Other than that, it met our needs perfectly.

Excellent cleanness

We stayed in this apartment for three nights. It is very clean and has all the kitchenware we need. The Wi-Fi was not strong, but it was enough for four of us to use at the same time. The check-in and check-out instructions are very clear. Gardiner (North Entrance) is not as crowded as West Yellowstone. It is highly recommended.

Middle of the road unit

We go to Gardiner every year and have stayed in a handful of VRBO's. My overall rating was a 3 for that rate per night. At a cheaper price per night, I would give it a 4. Positives: -Amazing parking. -The unit is very open. -Modern appearance and appliances. -Comfy linens and towels. -The windows open up to a good cross breeze. (See corresponding negative below). -Super convenient area for restaurants and bars. -Appliances worked well. -Plenty of towels. Negatives: -The mattresses are TERRIBLE. -All of the hardware are cheap and, in some instances, falling off the wall (such as the towel holder in the bathroom). -Shower head was mounted about 2 feet too low. While I'm not considered tall, I found it difficult to wash my face and hair. -Not enough comfortable seating in the living room. The couch and chair could both use an ottoman. -The bathroom has very little storage for toiletries. -The vent over the stove isn't really effective for cooking. We do not recommend cooking anything with odor. We browned half a pound of ground beef and the unit smelled of it for a few days. -The area around the unit is extremely dusty and you cannot leave the windows open or you will get a lung full of dust! -Lastly, and most importantly, they didn't insulate between floors. It is exceptionally noisy on the 1st floor and we do not recommend a ground unit for light sleepers!!!

Under the Arch in Yellowstone

From the initial booking to the day we left, this was a great experience. Gardiner is the gateway town to the North Entrance of Yellowstone, so it was very convenient to the park. We rented the accessible apartment, and it was nice to be able to have easy mobility in and out on the first floor. The apartment was well thought out with just about everything you could need or want. First it was sparkling clean. We rent from VROB a lot, and this was one of the cleanest ever! The appliances were great. There was a nice set of knives with a sharpener included. The coffee maker is a Mr. Coffee type (we did bring our own Keurig so never used the coffeemaker). Modern dishwasher, super-fast stove, good washer and dryer. Plenty of nice silverware and dishes. Good set of Kirkland pots and pans were a pleasure to cook with as we ate every meal there. The Gardiner Market has most of the basic supplies that you will need but we did stop on the way from Bozeman at Albertson's grocery in Livingston for special diet items. The wifi was great and I was able to zoom several meetings with no problems at all. Nice Kirkland sheets and towels too. The tub has lots of handrails to hold on to but no bath seat/chair so if you need one, you might consider picking one up in Bozeman. The owners were super responsive to anything we asked and made sure we had everything we needed. It was a pleasure having a comfy "home" to come back to after a day visiting the park. We highly recommend this apartment.

Very comfortable, clean, convenient place

Took my parents for a trip to Yellowstone back in late August 2023. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed. It is walking distance to Yellowstone north entrance and our goal was to stay close so we don’t waste time getting to/from the park. The hosts were great…no issues. They accommodated my request for an hour early check-in considering my elderly parents. There is no view of the park from the unit but if you can get to the park in under 2 mins, then no issues. The town small and has only one grocery store (that has everything) and some great restaurants. Would stay here again for sure.

Ystone Retreat

Great manager who answers all ?s quickly & made everything in this sparkling clean place perfect. Good close parking - great for disabled (me). Very comfy queen beds with high quality cotton linens & plenty of pillows. Full spacious bathroom with tub/shower (+ handheld option) and even a medicine cabinet. Lots of bars for hanging family towels. Great laundry (suggest hypoallergenic products). Nice game selection. Full size fridge. Outstanding in every way -- for winter. Summer might be tough since it does get hot in Gardiner & we didn't find any A/C. A challenge for disabled might be the dining table/chairs which are all high & hard for someone in a wheelchair or w/ hip/knee issues. The only standard-height seating was one accent chair & a nice sofa. I ended up using a tall dining chair as my table while I sat on the standard-height accent chair. Game playing was challenging on the high table (couldn't see the dominoes or the cards when playing cribbage). A folding table can't be substituted because all dining chairs are too tall for a standard table. FAST access to the north end of Yellowstone -- Lamar Valley & Mammoth. We highly recommend this comfortable, convenient, clean rental.

Yellowstone Vacay

Excellent location in a small quiet town near the North Entrance to Yellowstone. Great to avoid the traffic and crowds of West Yellowstone. Very clean. Plenty of space, room to spread out. Fans for the bedrooms to help circulate the A/C from the great room. Only two minor drawback we had. The water pressure/flow in the shower is lacking for a nice shower after a long day of hiking. Noise from upstairs unit at times due to large family moving around. Would stay here again on a future trip to Yellowstone.
