About this property

This cabin is attached to what once was the Old Pray Bar which my husband and I expanded to an art gallery/gift shop. It is located on a four acre parcel surrounded by open pastures, horses, a few homes, and a striking view of the mountains. The apartment is decorated nicely and has all the comforts of home! Fully stocked kitchen, large bedroom with a chair and ottoman, queen bed and 32" television with Dishnet satellite service. We have added a small sofa bed with a newer more comfortable mattress in the country kitchen, nice for reading or sleeping for a child. One enters a mudroom washer/dryer as an added convenience. THERE IS A PET FEE OF $10 PER DAY UP TO A MAXIMUM OF $40 for the week. Longer stays and multiple dogs, ask owner.

Relax after Yellowstone on the huge back deck with view of the mountains. The town of Pray is really a wide spot in the road, but 30 minutes from Livingston, 60 minutes from Bozeman and 35 minutes from Yellowstone Park. A favorite destination for many folks, is Chico Hot Springs. Chico offers fine dining, soaking and swimming in fresh, clean, therapeutic waters and live music and dancing on the weekends! Soak and check out the wildlife on the hills above the pool!
If you like quiet and quaint, this may be the right place for you!

2023 UPDATE: We have strong and stable internet connection through Century Link. The best cell phone service in our area is Verizon. That being said, we don't hear from our guests complaints about lack of service, though there are spots where there just is no service due to being in a mountainous area. We live nearby and visit the property daily. The nice thing is we are HANDS ON so we are able to notice things that need to be taken care of!
Time out from our normal lives is so important for rejuvenation, adventure, solace and rest! We value that you chose our place for this getaway/vacation! We aim to provide you a better place than you envisioned!

WONDERFUL. Our stay was from 7/26-7-28 and I cannot recommend it enough if you’re wanting a quiet, home-like experience with beautiful views of the mountains. The owners are so lovely and left us a note, snacks, and guides for the area. It was so nice being able to home cook a dinner after a day of hiking and to enjoy Montana from a more authentic perspective. The house is decorated so adorably! This is truly the place you want to be if you’re looking for a home away from home on your Yellowstone trip. So many good things to say, you have to see it for yourself.

Perfect little spot!

This lil cabin/apartment was in a prime location for discovering the area. Communication with the host was simple, courteous, and prompt. Lots of cute little touches around the space. And the view is simply perfection. Great to have a little campfire and look at the stars. Easy to prepare with a well stocked kitchen. Thorough instructions for the property as well as tons of helpful info about the area! Will definitely be returning next time Im in Paradise Valley!

Quiant, cozy place for stay

The place gives you rustic stay vibe, if you are looking for that, this is awesome! From the backyard you can see the mountains and stables. Also the kitchen has all the things you are looking for and Vicky was very helpful for everything. Only caveat will be how far it is from the park if you are planning to visit yellowstone ( 50 minutes from mammoth hot springs, 1.5-2 hours from geysers/grand canyon area). But if you are looking for a quiet homely stay and like to cook for yourself, this place is ideal

Great place!!

We had a fantastic stay! The apartment was as neat as a pin when we arrived, and it is really well-stocked with whatever you need, from kitchen items to extra bear spray. The place is very cozy, and comfortable with our dog, as well. We went to Yellowstone a few days in a row and also hiked outside of the park. The location is great, the view is beautiful, and there are several good restaurants nearby ranging from bar food to fancy restaurant. We’d love to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Vicky Holland

I fell in love with this valley in 1993 and moved here to work in a Guest Ranch for the summer of 1994. Met my husband, Gary, that summer at age 39, and the rest is history. Left the hectic lifestyle as a real estate agent in Bellevue, Washington, and discovered that I had a creative side that needed to be awakened by my artist, husband. Bought the old Pray Bar, added on an 1800 square foot gallery and frame shop and settled in! We have two shitzu's, Kopi and Jessie, that assist in running the gallery, while Gabe, a deer-headed chihuahua, keeps me entertained at home managing the vacation rentals and the marketing details with the gallery!

Why they chose this property

It was a charming space in a town called Pray with a beautiful view and so close to Yellowstone! It answered my call for simplicity!

What makes this property unique

Totally self-contained but near restaurants and Chico Hot Springs, as well as the fishing, hiking in the immediate area and 35 minutes to Yellowstone Park, yet only 30 minutes to the perfectly sized town of Livingston! For more extensive shopping and entertainment, the college town of Bozeman is delightful!
