We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was in a very quiet location and the owner was very responsive and accommodating throughout the entire booking process and our stay. The surrounding views are great and Dubois is less than 10 minutes away. The upstairs shower is tricky to access with an elevated entry and has low water pressure, but other than that, we had no issues with the property.
We brought 11 people to this property and had such a wonderful time. Dubois is a great little place in WY and close enough to Yellowstone and Grand Teton Parks that we went to both of them...but grateful to return to such a beautiful place to enjoy the evening. It was quiet and peaceful and there were plenty of rooms for everyone to stretch out and have time alone and then get together for some food at mealtime. I would recommend this property to anyone. Great amenities, convenient and exactly what we saw in the advertisement! We'll go again!
Great stay.
Only problems with the washer, fabric softener ran down the front of washer.
To make it more inviting perhaps the fake flower pots could be taken down hanging and sitting on the porch.
Our stay included my wife, her sister and brother-in-law, all over 70 years of age but in very good health. The stay was generally satisfactory. However, the presence of wildlife on the property was way overstated in the property description. In two weeks, the only wildlife that we saw was one doe and her fawns. The other major issue with the house was the bathrooms. The master bathroom had high tech shower controls that only retired engineer brother-in-law could figure out. The bathroom on the second floor had a very high sided tub and glass doors with no support. Very inaccessible for people our age even though we are in very good health. Had to use the make shift shower in the laundry room where the water was only slightly lukewarm. Two weeks of cold showers was not very appealing. Though not a big deal, the front door latch always caught when attempting to open, just annoying. Though advertised as non-smoking, we found numerous cigarette butts outside and some of the bedrooms smelled of excessive air freshener, perhaps to cover the smell. Was difficult to get adequate ventilation to dissipate the smell because of the nearby forest fire and associated smoke. Front deck was great. View from the house was great. Communication with the host was very good.
We were able to use this to meet up with my sister and her family and it was a good setup for what we wanted to do and it's location was great for the outings we made in the days we stayed. It was a great vacation spot for our group and we really enjoyed the views from the cabin and would highly recommend this cabin for groups our size (we had 9 total).
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. This was first time that the whole family was able to be together for a vacation. Amazing views right from the front porch! The house was the perfect base for day trips into Yellowstone, Tetons and Jackson Hole. The upstairs family room was perfect for the kids to enjoy movies and playtime. Plenty of room for all of us to spread out and be comfortable. The grounds provided incredible views and lifelong memories! Don't miss the Friday night rodeo in Dubois!
Perfect place for a wedding, party, large gathering etc. We did run into a mouse issue. We saw well over a dozen running around the home during our couple day stay there.
We had a great time. Location was perfect. Loved the property. The backyard with the spring fed pond was so peaceful and relaxing after a long day in the parks.
Excellent place to stay! Roomy all around, with plenty of bedrooms. House is very comfortable to stay in! Hosts were excellent and worked with us even though I made a scheduling error. Worked diligently to allow in a day earlier than scheduled! The cookies and jellies provided were delicious!
This Retreat Cabin was an absolutely lovely property for our gathering of artists. The kitchen is quite large and well appointed, with lots of counter and cabinet space. We had a large group, and having the extra fridge in the utility room was a great help. The views from the porch out over the valley looking up into the Absarokas and Ramshorn are incredible. The property manager was responsive and helpful. The rooms were very comfortable, and the bathrooms were adequate. There was plenty of parking space and the property was easy to find. I would absolutely stay in this wonderful retreat cabin again.
