Gardner cabin
My family and I stayed here for 5 nights for Christmas week and it was everything we wanted. Beautiful location with a very pretty view of the mountains. Plenty of kitchen space to cook for the family. Very short distance to Yellowstone hot springs and 30 minutes from Chico. Cabin was very clean and exactly as listed. Easy to find and check in check out process was simple.

Yellowstone comfort
Buffalo Trace is comfortable, well-appointed, and within minutes of the North entrance of Yellowstone. The owners were particularly helpful suggesting special spots in the park to view animals. At the end of our long days exploring the park, it was nice to cook in and relax with friends.

A great place to stay!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic VRBO and we cannot say enough good things about it. The accommodations were outstanding - the home was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the location was perfect for exploring the town and Yellowstone NP. The owners, Natalie and Kevin were also extremely communicative and helpful, making the whole experience even better. We highly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a great place to stay!

Yellowstone trip!
This house was perfect for our family trip. The location is walkable to the main area of Gardiner and so close to the north entrance of Yellowstone making it the perfect “home base”. Owners are easy to get in touch with. Would recommend without reservation.

Amazing Yellowstone Rental
The Buffalo Trace Retreat was the perfect home for our trip to Yellowstone! The house was absolutely beautiful and perfectly located so that we could enjoy every aspect of the park! At the house, we had lots of elk and mule deer visitors, which made the trip even more special! Natalie and Kevin were the perfect hosts and made our stay absolutely perfect!!

Perfect location for North Entrance to Yellowstone
We really enjoyed this property from the beautiful views to the perfect in-town location. The house is within walking distance to the grocery store, yummy restaurants and the north entrance of yellowstone. The park is what brought us here and staying further away would have been difficult. Easy communication with owners and they let us check in a bit early which was nice.
