About this property

Moose Haven Vacation Log Home.

A Wilderness Experience near Yellowstone!

Moose Haven is our 2200 square foot, 3 story, 4 BR, 2 full bath modernized vacation log home located 6 short miles from West Yellowstone that sits in a deep forested lot ringed by forests, fields, and mountains. The surrounding national forest lands provide a quiet setting. The home sleeps up to 8 guests in comfortable beds. We are adjacent to the Gallatin National Forest just a short 10 minute drive from West Yellowstone. There are 4 bedrooms, two large spacious living rooms, a modern kitchen, full washer/dryer facilities. This home is well supplied with anything you might need - linens and towels, a hair dryer, all paper goods, dish washing soaps, hand soaps and shower gel, laundry soap, trash bags and not to forget a great assortment of food staples, herbs and spices. Your experience and comfortability is important to us!

Our wonderful log home has all modern amenities one could ever need.

Snowmobiling trails are within 1/4 mile of the home. We are at the foot of Lions Head, Two Top, Madison Loop Trails, and Yellowstone Park or Island Park is a 15 minute ride. With over 500 miles of groomed snowmobile trails outside of Yellowstone National Park, this area is truly a snowmobilers favorite! The area is also home to cross country/nordic skiing. You can ski on our world famous Rendezvous Ski Trails groomed ski park, offering over 35 Kilometers of winding groomed trails that meander through the pristine Gallatin National Forest. Fifty miles north to Big Sky, MT, the best of Rocky Mountain downhill skiing is offered at two different resorts: Big Sky and Moonlight Basin. Snowshoeing is another winter activity you can do right out your front door through the forest!

West Yellowstone is located in the heart of fly-fishing country. Several of the most fabled streams and rivers in the world are within a five to sixty mile radius of the town, including the Madison River, Gallatin River, Yellowstone River, and Henry's Fork of the Snake River. High quality lake fishing is also available on Hebgen Lake and Quake Lake, Henry's Lake and Island Park Reservoir. All are a short drive from the vacation home.

We are immediately adjacent (within 1/4 mile) to the Gallatin National Forest and only 2 miles from lake fishing. Here you'll find Hebgen Lake at the South Fork of the Madison River with a public boat launch and dock for your use.

All of our guests find out very quickly just how handy it is to be very close to all activities; Hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, bird watching, cross country/nordic skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing, and of course Yellowstone National Park, which only 10 minutes away. River rafting on the Gallatin River is a great way to cool down on a hot summer day. Try a full or half day rafting adventure along the lower section of the river with lots of rapids. Horseback riding can be enjoyed at the Diamond P Ranch, located 2 miles from the home. Other outfitters can take your party into the back country of Yellowstone Park, or the surrounding National Forest Service land. Elaborate ropes course for young and old located right in town.

Don't want to drive around? Well then settle back for a BBQ on the spacious outside patio, or build a campfire in the fire pit for a evening of fun. In the mornings head out back with a fresh cup of hot coffee and enjoy moose, deer, a variety of birds, squirrels, marmots, and other wildlife literally wandering around the area

Beautiful cabin near Yellowstone

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this charming, beautifully renovated historic cabin. It was clean, spacious and well-equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect as it is in a private wooded area yet close to West Yellowstone and YNP.. Hope to stay at this awesome cabin again on our next visit!

Great cabin

Cabin was exactly what was listed. It was clean and well stocked with everything needed. Snow was removed promptly. Nice having a manager next door and communicating with the owner was quick and easy. We brought two 25’ plus snowmobile trailers. I was a little tight getting them in but very doable. Great location to ride two tops and Lionhead

Yellowstone Vacation

This was truly a home away from home! We loved the Moose Haven Cabin. It is nestled back in a nice, quiet, and small cabin community. It is close to West Yellowstone with easy access to the park. The cabin is fully stocked with everything you may need. The space both inside and out is beautiful. A great place for a family to stay. We can’t wait to come back to Moose Haven and Yellowstone!

Great Stay and close to town

The stay for the whole family (older parent, two families with 3 kids) was great. Even though we have heater problem the second day we stay but Cameron and Gayle was quick to bring in some heaters for us so we didn't suffer any cold. Great communication and only 10 mins to the Yellowstone West Entrance. Would definitely recommend this place!

Perfect home away from home

Moose Haven is the perfect location and home to get in and out of Yellowstone! The home was very clean and cozy and, as stated, they have more than what you’d get at most VRBOs. All the kitchen necessities, condiments, spices, grill AND MORE. We were well cared for and great communication. Beds are supper comfy and two great family areas. We would come back here in a heart beat!!

Great cabin for a family getaway!

Moose Haven is a very nice cabin in a location that gives you access to many scenic and recreation options. The owners are exceptionally hospitable and thoughtful when it comes to your stay. We were especially thankful for a fully stocked kitchen (oils, spices, etc.) that made cooking for our family easy and enjoyable. Should we come back to this area, we would consider staying here again.

The cabin was clean and had a great location!

The cabin was well stocked with games, movies, and kitchen items to make our stay feel homey! We had 4 adults and 2 teenagers, and there was plenty of space. It was such a bonus to have access to a washer and dryer. What a great trip!

Comfortably Cozy; Plenty of Space to Stretch Out

We enjoyed the rustic charm, modern amenities, and roomy space during our visit. Whether returning from a busy day outside at Yellowstone NP or around the area, or staying in when the weather changed up on us quickly, we felt at home, but with much better views!!!

Perfect family get away

This is probably the best rental we have done. Cabin was clean and the kitchen well stocked with everything you might need to cook including nice selection of spices and plenty of dish towels etc. plenty of towels in the bathrooms (very nice towels) and extra blankets and pillows. Little extras like night lights and lotion. That just made it feel like home. Very nice outside picnic table and fire pit. The only thing we needed was more time to stay longer. You can’t go wrong with this cabin.

A very nice option with friendly host

This property worked well for our group. The kitchen was well stocked, we enjoyed the fire pit and the gas grill, and Yellowstone was just a short drive away. And the owner, Cameron, was proactive and apologetic when there was an issue with the heat that couldn't be fixed before we arrived. The middle and top floor are unfortunately very creaky, but thankfully my kids sleep soundly so they didn't wake when I walked through the upper loft on my way to bed, so that wasn't a problem for us. Thanks for a nice stay!

About the host

Hosted by Cameron Phillips

Host profile image
We have spent our lifetimes living and raising our four children, now 11 grandkids in Yellowstone Country. We love to hike Yellowstone Park, we are major fly fishing, skiing and cycling nuts, we love just sitting in the pines, taking the grandkids on nature walks, and provide a destination for our children. We are both retired, me as a firefighter, and we spent 20 years guiding cyclists following the Tour de France spending 5 weeks abroad each summer.

Why they chose this property

We chose Moose Haven because of the very close location to Yellowstone Park (7 miles), the area fishing, and yet because the home is located in the forest you still think your far, far away from civilization.

My wife has been in this area since she was 3, I started going there 40+ years ago, it has always been a dream to be there. During other times of the year we down in So Cal enjoying sunshine in North San Diego County closer to our grandchildren.

What makes this property unique

A real benefit staying in our home...is that it is just that...'our home', it is not a shell rental unit, but is a rich, comfortable, very well appointed home with everything you need. We sit in the most forested lot in our area, so staying home is as nice as being deep inside Yellowstone Park, including some critters. Occasionally, we have moose, fox, and other critters early spring

We are 10 minutes from West Yellowstone, and YNP west gate. The town has all amenities with good restaurants and grocery stores. We are within 45 minutes of the best fishing waters in the US, if not the world. Lake Hebgen is a large lake 5 minutes away, horseback outfitters 5 minutes away, 90 miles to the south is Jackson Hole and the Grand Teton Park.

We like the local bakeries and coffee shops in town, and much more.

One of our favorite activities, is to simply have a nice lunch on the back deck, do some reading and listen to the wind through the tall pines and then nap....yes NAP!

It is a must do experience!
