Re-energized

Holy Cow, right on the border of Yellowstone park..!! The views from the upper deck were amazing and it was nice falling asleep to the flow of Yellowstone River at night. The place is super clean, feels brand new and the gas fireplace was perfect..!! 5 stars for sure for this fantastic location.

Yellowstone Trip

Loved the house! We wanted to stay in a house that had the Montana views and this was perfect! It was about 10 minutes to the Northwest entrance to Yellowstone. Saw elk and antelope every day at the house. How cool is that?! Kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed. Will stay here again if we get out this way. Bonnie was a great host!

Amazing stay in Gardiner

Bonnie's home was the perfect place to end each day after a visit to Yellowstone. Staying in her amazing home made a great vacation even better! The property was extremely clean and homey. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is amazing! It had absolutely everything you need to cook a meal and more! It was by far the most well-stocked kitchen I have ever seen in a vacation rental. The view from the living room is beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the wrap around balcony & watching the wildlife that would appear on the property. The living room has a wonderful gas fireplace that we enjoyed each evening.The view of the night sky is also amazing! Bonnie is the ultimate host. Soon after we booked her home, she reached out to confirm the booking and to offer additional information about her property and the surrounding area. She provided excellent tips about how to make the most of our visit to Yellowstone. She periodically reached out prior to our arrival to see if we had any questions and she was always available if we needed anything before or during our trip. If you do not want to stay in the park (which can be rather busy and crowded). Bonnie's home is the perfect choice! The home is very close to the Gardiner Market if you need groceries or other supplies. It is just short drive to the North entrance of Yellowstone, where there was never a wait to enter the park. Book Bonnie’s amazing vacation chalet! You will be so glad you did!

Absolute Perfection!!

Bonnie was a most gracious host. From gathering information about her property, recommendations for our Yellowstone visits, as well as recommendations for our Wildlife guide, Bonnies guidance was spot on. Her Chalet is immaculate. We wondered if anyone else had ever stayed there before....everything was that clean and modern. Check in was a breeze. The views from the balcony were nothing less than stunning. On check in day we had a small herd of elk standing in the river directly behind her property. Elk bugling all around us, Wolves howling in the distance, and Yellowstone park just 300 feet away.....Spectacular!!!! You can fish in the Yellowstone river directly behind the property. Make this VRBO Chalet your go to place to call a home away from home....you won't be disappointed!!

Simply perfection

Simply perfect! It's hard to imagine coming back to Yellowstone and wanting to stay anywhere else. The amount of thought and detail Bonnie poured into this place is impeccable. It is only rivaled by her excellent communication skills and hostess abilities. You walk into this home and want for nothing. And yes, I call it a home because it does feel like a very cared for home and not just a house. If there weren't so many natural wonders to see in Yellowstone, you'd never want to leave Bonnie's place. The next time I visit, I plan to schedule a day just to take in the view from the balcony and enjoy relaxing at the house. Bonnie is a delight, and I enjoyed every interaction. I appreciate her going above and beyond for us. Don't think twice and book this as your home base for your Yellowstone adventures. Bonnie, thank you for making our first trip to Yellowstone absolute perfection!!

Better than I imagined!!

Bonnie is an excellent host and she was always available for questions and a great communicator. MY family and I were blown away by her property. You can tell she spared no expense and paid attention to every detail in the house. The house has everything you need. The living room alone has the best view of the mountains and wildlife. That room alone is worth the price of admission. The home's proximity to Yellowstone's North entrance is a very short drive. The town of Gardiner is very charming. Bonnie is an excellent host and we would love to stay here again. Don't hesitate to book this property. You will not regret it.

Fantastic Montana Experience!!

Our family absolutely LOVED the chalet! The property was just as advertised... the living room and kitchen were up to date and very cozy. The Master bedroom view was amazing. And nothing can beat the view from the balcony. My husband and I loved our quiet time in the mornings on the balcony. An entire heard of elk joined us the first two mornings, and we always saw 2-3 pronghorn deer on the way into Gardiner. We also enjoyed watching the family of marmots or "chunky squirrels" as my son referred to them. The quick drive into Yellowstone was fantastic. We would highly recommend this property to anyone that wants to enjoy the beauty of Montana and Yellowstone in a beautiful yet cozy home.

Cannot Wait to Return

Bonnie is the best host. She’s very communicative and helpful with park info and tour guides. The property is pristine, kitchen is fully stocked with all cookware, and the Blackstone Cooktop on the porch is awesome. Love Gardiner, town is awesome and right on the park boundary. Wildlife was abundant, we saw more elk on the property than we did at the park! 10/10 would recommend.

Close, clean & quiet

Well appointed two bedroom. Super clean & quiet respite after long days hiking and fishing in Yellowstone. Hard to get much closer to the park, the Chalet connects to the park via the Old Yellowstone trail, only 10 minutes to the park and Gardiner. The balcony in the evenings is a great place to relax, view the Elk as the graze 50 feet from the house, have a nightcap and then watch the stars. Bonnie is a great host and a wealth of knowledge on the park and the area to help plan your visit. Thanks for a great visit!

Enjoy Yellowstone in comfort

This is a wonderful property. Our host was awesome. She made sure we were having a great time and that we had everything we needed. The house is beautiful, beds are very very comfortable and the house is fully stocked with everything you need. The yellowstone river is in the back yard. Every morning we would wake up and sit on the covered deck. Elk, prong horn were in our yard everyday. There were 3 cute little Marmots that were fun to watch. The house is surrounded by beautiful mountains. It is a short distance to the North Gate (Roosevelt Entrance) of Yellowstone. I would definitly recommend staying at this property and hope to go back for another visit soon.

We loved our stay in Gardiner! Bonnie Lynn was very helpful and was a great resource as I planned our trip. The home overlooks the Yellowstone River and is a short drive from the National Park. Thanks so much for letting us stay! We will be back!

Beautiful home with amazing views and close to Yellowstone enterance

Bonnie Lynn was a wonderful host. She communicated well leading up to our vacation giving us fun activities to do in Gardiner knowing the North entrance was closed to the public. We loved sitting on the expansive deck and watching the wildlife come into the yard. The location was perfect as it was so close to town. We loved our stay!

Wonderful stay! Home away from home!

Location, Location, Location! This place sits right on the border of national forest and Yellowstone Park. The property has a view that is fantastic from the living room , kitchen, but the deck is the best. Comfortable outdoor furniture and plenty of seating. Each day you awake to marmots, bunnies, pronghorn antelope and elk moving across your view from this place. True care and thought went into this new build property from the layout to the accents on the walls. New furniture, beds, appliances, etc. Communication with Bonnie was easy and quickly responded too. She really tries to make your stay as great as possible with helpful suggestions and delivering replenishment items immediately. We have travelled to Yellowstone a few times now and this place made it feel like a home away from home. Went into town for lunch and dinner, Great kitchen for cooking however. This place has air conditioning which if you've ever stayed out west in the summer is a rarity. Has adjustable beds another great feature in bedrooms. The entrance to Yellowstone is available for entry with limited locally guided trips. Again a great place to stay even without access to Yellowstone , beautiful drives and fishing everywhere. Great towns within driving distance highly recommend exploring the areas, superb places to eat , and the yellowstone river just a walk down the yard.
