The cabin was very clean and large enough comfortably facilitate my entire family. Very close to Yellowstone park! Island Park is a beautiful location. We also enjoyed the all day ATV rental.
A relaxing and beautiful cabin! Plenty of space - including a basement with movie room, 2 bunk beds, and bathroom. Loved making s’mores in the fire pit! We will be back!!
Our family had a great time at this property. When the power went out, the host communicated with us and solved the problem quickly. Would definitely recommend staying at the property.
The property was nice but needs some updates like new carpeting, working smoke detectors, working fireplaces, upstairs shower control valve is broken, and working lights and outlets in master bedroom.
We had an enjoyable stay. Other than some trouble with key cards and the smoke detectors going off one night (no fire) everything was great. The hosts were very easy to reach with our questions, problems! We would recommend it!
The cabin is beautiful and just as depicted. It comfortably sleeps 6 adults and the 4 full bathrooms are a definite plus. Unfortunately, the check in instructions and process were completely wrong - no lock box on the gate entering the gated community so therefore no access key. Every couple had to call the property manager to have the gate opened. There was one access key inside the house as indicated; however, there were three couples needing either a code that worked or an access key so we could do exploring on our own. The ignition switch on the grill did not work and we had to go purchase a fire stick in order to use the grill. There were only 3 dishwasher soap pods and we also had to go purchase pods for the remainder of our stay there. Lastly, the night stands in two of the bedrooms were so dusty you could write your name on them and had to be cleaned before we could comfortably stay in the rooms. It seems that the property managers are doing a poor job of maintaining this lovely cabin for visitors.
For not knowing the area, we were pleased! The house was well stocked and enough room, bathrooms and hot water for all of us! Our first morning while having coffee on the front porch, we saw a moose and her baby which was a great way to start the trip!
Our first trip to Yellowstone and this cabin was perfect for our family. Great location for a casual time between Yellowstone days to relax and explore Idaho. The cabin had everything we needed with a well stocked kitchen of all the extras. Bedrooms and bathrooms were accommodating. Fire pit was great to have for a night of s’mores. Communication with the owners was easy and detailed. If we ever find ourselves up here again, we would definitely rebook.
Nice place, a few maintenance issues that need addressed. Couldn't figure out how to get theater to work, but oh well. Beautiful home in a beautiful area.
This house was perfect for our family of 7. Lots of space and fully stocked with everything we needed. The location is beautiful. The first night of our stay we were able to watch the eclipse over the lake. It's quiet and beautiful and only 45 min drive to the West Yellowstone gate. We would definitely stay here again.
We stayed over Thanksgiving weekend and enjoyed it soo much!! Jennie was awesome to work with through booking the process and with any questions I had. I can’t say enough about how perfect the cabin was for our family. Beautiful rooms and fireplaces., All the rooms had their own temperature controls.
If we could have stayed forever, we would! :) we will definitely be back! ❤️
We had such a fun fall weekend at the cabin. Thanks. Cabin was well stocked with everything we needed.
