Beautiful property, but NOT secluded and beware of bugs
The listing indicates that this property is on a secluded 15 acres on the Yellowstone River. It’s on the Yellowstone and the exterior of the property is beautiful with gorgeous landscaping. However, it doesn’t say anywhere that the owners live in a house literally next door that shares the riverfront. So if you really want seclusion you’re not going to get it. Also, the weather was spectacular and we wanted to keep the doors and windows open. The screens had holes and gaps which let in a “hatch” of river flies - essentially a swarm - I’m talking hundreds of these flies all over the place. We had to spray the entire house, sleep in another bedroom, and close all the windows and doors. Since the owners were next door they were kind enough to come over the next morning and clean up most of the dead bugs, but this definitely put a damper on our trip. There was also a comment made that we should have expected as much staying on the river. We expected a house without holes and gaps in the window and door screens. We escaped the Phoenix heat for the gorgeous weather of Montana and weren’t able to fully enjoy it while we were at the house. We would go back to Montana again, we’d stay on the river again, but we’d make sure the place we were staying in is truly secluded and in great shape.

Family vaca
We absolutely loved our time here! My husband and 3 adult children came for a family wedding just 1 mi up the rd. Beautiful scenery all around and the location was perfect. We did the north and west entrances of Yellowstone, spent time at the Chico hot springs,floated the Madison River, enjoyed the near by Old Saloon and Outpost. We had family over the day after the wedding and played games on the beautiful lawn. Anita was a traveling but Fred and the dogs were excellent hosts. I gave 4 stars on cleanliness only because it’s a rustic cabin and you are out in the country. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room. We had everything we needed for a fun, comfortable and relaxing vacation. Only recommendation is, there was no tin foil/saran wrap and only a few sandwich bags that may have been left. You may want to grab some before headed out. We hope to go back someday! Thank you Anita and Fred!

Well Socked Home away from home
We traveled to Livingston in order to visit Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Teton, and surrounding Livingston. The Paoli’s provide a beautiful and comfortable home with everything that you need to make the stay pleasant and comfortable. The kitchen has every tool for home cooked meals. We were on the go all day and really enjoyed coming back to the River house for dinner and relaxing. Thank you to the Paoli’s for a beautiful River vacation home!

Relaxing retreat with a beautiful view!
Our group of friends had the pleasure of staying in the river house for a long weekend. The property was easy to find, and the hosts were very welcoming. The house was wonderful with plenty of room to relax, and lots of extras included to make your stay comfortable. It was the perfect spot to explore Paradise Valley and nearby Yellowstone.

Perfect location and accommodation for small or larger group. Cannot imagine a better place for beautiful vistas, fishing from the front yard, games in the back yard and floating down the river right back to the house. Thank you, Paoli’s, Ruby and Cash for a great stay.

Best Peaceful Place
From the first moment on the property until we left, our experience was wonderful. Comfortable, clean, peaceful, on the river home. Owners are right next door and we were fortunate enough to meet Fred, along with Cash and Rudy (beautiful friendly Black Labs). The house has more than ample warm bedding (for the cool nights), a wealth of kitchen/cooking/baking utensils and dishes. Lots of outdoor lawn furniture for relaxing outside, after peaceful walks along the river. Overall, our stay was quite enjoyable for all of us and we look forward to hopefully staying here again soon!

Great place for a long weekend
Came with some friends for a long fishing weekend. The house is set in a beautiful setting, right on the Yellowstone. One of my friends had a nice sized cutthroat within 30 minutes of our arrival. The amenities were perfect and kitchen setup well since we cooked our own breakfast and dinner before and after we headed out fishing. Our hosts were great. One of the best things about this location is Ruby and Cash, two older black labs that greeted us every morning!

This place was heaven and hate to give a 5 star review, as it will be so booked!! Fred and Anita were awesome and we will def return. We are huge cooks so I would think it could use some more kitchen supplies and such but overall we made due. Thank you both so much and can't wait to see you again, Fred!! Hope all is well up there!

Great Family Stay
Picnic tables overlook the Yellowstone river, an ancient willow shelters from the sun and the Absaroka mountains rise from the valley floor few miles away out the back door. Our hosts live next door and were kind, friendly and interesting. All you could ask for in hospitality. Our family reunion included children and a dog. Our group of 11 is probably. maximum for comfort. This is an old homestead updated to provide modern comforts. We were happy for the combination. Everything works. We did have a very hot spell and even without air conditioning the downstairs rooms were fine. All of us agreed we would happily return.

Yellowstone trip
The property was fine for our needs. It was clean, equipped and host responded quickly to any needs. We drove to Yellowstone almost everyday but it was a bit far for someone planning a full Yellowstone experience. One day we did just Chico and it was a perfect location for that and for exploring Livingston.
