About this property

Unique Rustic Log House in Jardine, Montana

Enjoy the relaxing and fun atmosphere of this one of a kind log house. It is tucked in the mountains at the “end of the road” in the old mining town of Jardine, Montana, which is 6 miles northeast of Gardiner – the north entrance to Yellowstone Park. This place offers a nice balance between seclusion and easy access to endless sightseeing, wildlife viewing, and outdoor recreation opportunities.

This property is located near an outfitting business, Specimen Creek Outfitters. They offer horseback rides, as well as pack trips and hunting trips into the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness.

The North Fork of Bear Creek is only about 100 yards below. It is a beautiful mountain stream and the fishing is good! Nights are quiet and peaceful. And the night sky is brilliant – take time to gaze at the stars.

This house is rustic and has lots of character. It is clean and cozy, but the layout and decor aren’t too fussy or uptight. The original portion of the house was built in 1994 with logs skidded out of the forest with a team of Percheron horses and peeled by hand. It includes an open kitchen with appliances and dishes. There is a deck where you can kick back and take in the scenery. One bathroom has an antique clawfoot tub. There is a loft/bedroom with a homemade queen size log bed. There is a nice sounding old piano for the fun of it.

A versatile 'great' room, which includes a bar (with sink, fridge and TV) and a full bathroom was added on to the house in 2001, and it is ideal for entertaining and hanging out. There are antlers, tanned hides, antiques, etc. throughout the house – sort of a wildlife/western theme. There is a large yard with trees, a picnic table, and a firepit. The native wildflowers are beautiful and plentiful. And various species of birds and wildlife will share this property with you.

There are also two convertible sofa beds in addition to a bedroom and the loft. The unique floor plan of this home can easily and comfortably accommodate a group of 6. This property is kid friendly and your well behaved pets are welcome too!

AMAZING PROPERTY!
Looking for a quiet, remote get away? This beautiful cabin has it all. Well equipped, comfortable, and stunning views. Close to Yellowstone and yet a short drive to get away from the crowds. The road leading to the cabin can be a little rough, but well worth the drive. I highly recommend this cabin!

Mountain Heaven
The cabin was perfect. Supplied so well, we needed very little from the grocery store and loved the cabin so much we never ate out the entire time we were there. From the CD collection, to the decor, down to the bedding, everything was absolutely perfect. We are already making plans for our return trip.

Excellent Cabin
This cabin is great, it is well stocked and has everything you need. The only downside might be the distance from Gardiner up a mostly gravel road but otherwise no complaints.

Unique log cabin
A short drive from Gardiner, this hand built home feels like a cozy Montana hideaway. Every detail is anticipated. It’s very well stocked. We stayed in late September and built fires in the stove each night which amply heated the home. My favorite part is the location, just steps away from Bear Creek and great hiking trails. If you like log cabins and mountain cozy, you’ll love it here too.

Fabulous Mountain Cabin
Absolutely wonderful place. Everything you could possibly need for your stay. Highly recommend! The host was very accommodating, accessible, and pleasant to work with. If you’re looking for a quiet, slightly off the beaten path, up in the mountains spot, this is it. The quintessential log cabin.

Everything you could ask for
An incredible getaway for our family. Close enough to Yellowstone but quiet and far enough from the park to wind down each evening. Our family loved the drive up the mountain each day and sitting on the porch in the evening listening to the creek.

Amazing and perfectly removed from the hustle and bustle
Our stay at the cabin was nothing short of excellent. When we arrived it was cozy and welcoming. It was fully stocked with every kitchen item you could even think of needing. The cabin was much larger than I expected and was the perfect place to return to after long hours outdoors in Yellowstone and the surrounding area. Fall was settling in when we arrived, and we were able to warm the cabin up with a fire in the evenings. If you want to fall asleep to the sound of rushing water in the creek and with views of thousands of stars, this is the cabin for you. I cannot recommend it enough.

Remote And Quite Location
If you want a really nice clean remote quiet location, this is it. The road up can be a bit of a challenge as the county does not grade it often, but that is not the owners fault. The place was fantastic for my family and I.

Beautiful cabin in the woods
We really enjoyed our stay in this cabin. It has everything you would need or want. The scenery is so pretty and we enjoyed drinking coffee on the porch and listening to the creek down below. It was such a nice place to come home to after a long day of sight seeing at Yellowstone. My daughter also loved the piano.
