Our Happy Place
We truly loved our stay here. Plenty of space for all of us. There were 3 couples and 1 baby. We were able to spread out and have our own space. We also loved the living area. Views were AMAZING!

Very comfy cabin on the river and close to Big Sky skiing

Excellent stay by the river
This was a great cabin in a beautiful location. Clean and in good condition. The hot tub overlooking the Gallatin River and mountains was perfect after a day of skiing. The host responded very quickly to any question. Would definitely stay again.

A Perfect Getaway!
My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the cabin for 8 incredible days, and I can’t recommend this place highly enough. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this home was designed with guests’ comfort and enjoyment in mind. This cabin style home is perfectly situated, offering a serene escape while still being conveniently close to local attractions. Whether we wanted to explore Yellowstone National Park or enjoy a day at the river, everything was within easy reach. The neighborhood itself is peaceful and charming, making it a fantastic spot for relaxation. Besides the sliding door that didn't lock, the home was spotless and beautifully maintained (they had a bar to keep the sliding door locked). Each bedroom was thoughtfully decorated, comfortable, and provided ample privacy. Amenities: This home truly had it all. The kitchen was fully equipped with high-quality appliances and all the cookware we needed to prepare meals, making it easy to enjoy home-cooked dinners. The living area featured a large, flat-screen TV with a great selection of streaming options, perfect for family movie nights. The outdoor space was a highlight, with a lovely patio area and a working hot tub. We loved sitting in the hot tub and enjoying the scenic mountain backyard view.

Fantastic family trip to Big Sky
The house is conveniently located near everything that you want to check out: Yellowstone, Madison River, Big Sky, Bozeman, etc. Bonus is that you are on the Gallatin River which makes for a very relaxing setting. Not that you want to speed too much time in the cabin, but the cabin is very comfortable and provides all of the amenities needed. This cabin is especially good for families with children as there are plenty of board games and entertainment areas for the kids to unwind after the days activities. Would highly recommend it for families or just a group of friends. Looking forward to coming back!

We really enjoyed the property. Location was perfect for our group. House and kitchen was very well stocked. Would definitely stay again! Highly recommend. One tip.. open windows at night and close in the morning as well as the shades. It helps keep house cool.

Magnificent location
Perfect house for our family of 10. We had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well supplied. The beds were comfortable. The decor was very Montana which was fun. Our favorite place was time on the deck & in the hot tub. The views were so beautiful with the river & mountains combined. A few days the bugs were bad but being in the mountains to be expected. Fun times whitewater rafting, swimming in the river at the green trestle bridge including jumping off the bridge, a day in Yellowstone, the Riverhouse restaurant, the local rodeo…an amazing week we will all cherish forever!

Gorgeous Cabin!
This was everything the listing described and more! The location is close to anything and everything we wanted to do, including booking a luxury tour to Yellowstone for the day. The house was a great set up to spend time on the porch and fires at night together, yet plenty of space to spread out. The beds were also very comfortable. We will definitely return!

We had a hiccup with check-in which created some stress but was resolved by VRBO. Peaceful property on a great river for fishing. We also had a bald eagle land on a tree right across the river from the house. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.

Great house, Broken hot tub
The hot tub was broken for the entire five night stay. While a partial refund was given, there is a clause in the rental agreement that removes any obligation to give a refund for a broken hot tub. If I had recognized that clause I might have chosen another place. If the hot tub was working this would be a 5 star house. I know that hot tubs break on occasion, and this might have been unavoidable. That being said, I dont think the owner gave us the refund commensurate with a broken hot tub.

Ski Big Sky and stay in style
This property was a great fit for our group of five guys looking for a convenient and affordable place to stay during our ski week at Big Sky. The views of the Gallatin River are unmatched. Bring your binoculars. We were able to see elk, moose, big horn sheep, and even a wolf during our stay. The five bedrooms and four bathrooms were a great fit and everyone in our party had plenty of private space while still being able to gather comfortably in the living room and kitchen for meals. The property was well stocked, clean, and well located. Vivian, our host, was super easy to work with and very responsive when we had questions. She was also helpful in guiding us to ski rentals, restaurants, and a grocery store. As a ski group we are already planning a return visit to Big Sky and individually a few members of our party are contemplating a return visit to this property to enjoy hiking in the Gallatin Valley and Yellowstone during the summer.

San Marino Cabins
Fabulous location right on the Gallatin River. Spectacular Views with great activities being on the river--fishing, rafting, tubing were just outside your door. Short drive to Big Sky shopping and only 1 hour to Yellowstone National Park. Handsome large log cabin architecture, very comfortably furnished, kitchen well stocked. Our 2nd time to the location and community of 8 homes. Will book again!

Fabulous location and home
Beautiful home on Gallitin River/ easy river access. Communication with owner was excellent; she provided many helpful hints of things to do. Blue Moon Bakery pizza and Lotus were excellent restaurants. Kitchen small but well stocked with gorgeous river views. Bedrooms small but clean and comfortable. Loft AC kept room comfortable. No window shades to east so children awoke early. Good access to Big Sky (10 minutes) and Yellowstone (50 minutes to entrance). Would definitely return!

Wonderful!
The five adults and four children in our group really enjoyed our stay. Just beautiful!! Our location was perfect, an hour from Bozeman and from West Yellowstone. Just a few minutes from Big Sky. The house is very clean and spacious with room enough for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked. It was great seeing the kids play in the river, as cold as it was. The hot tub was wonderful. Lots of board games were available. Communication with our host was great. I would highly recommend staying here. Everyone in our group would love to come back. It was a perfect vacation for our family!

Very nice but musty basement floor
The house is outstanding and a great location. The size of the house looks deceiving from the outside but has plenty of well designed space as per the listing. The only issue was the basement floor, which has two of the bedrooms, smells incredibly musty and moldy. Could not get rid of the odor so less than ideal for those of the family that stayed in those rooms.

Great cabin on the river
We had a great time at the cabin. The location is great as it was a great home base between some activities in Bozeman and heading into Yellowstone. The cabin was well stocked and comfortable for our group. The property mgmt was very responsive with our hot tub questions and were quick to get the hot tub company out to address the issues.

Perfect Ski Getaway
This place was perfect for our ski trip with 12 adults. The size allowed for us all to gather together when we wanted and also have our own space if needed. We used the hot tub almost every night, and I cannot possibly describe the beauty of the clear Montana sky from that hot tub. Overall, the place was just as advertised with incredible views, comfy beds, a well stocked kitchen, and even a surprise delivery of fresh firewood after the first few nights. The property manager was responsive to any and all communication throughout the week. The only thing to note is that cell service in the area is basically nonexistent (at least for Verizon) so I highly recommend you make sure you have your check-in code for the house before you get to the front door. That said, the Wi-Fi was strong enough to support 12+ devices throughout the week. I would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Vivian

Host profile image
We are a California beach family with roots in Wyoming and Texas.

Why they chose this property

Our family vacationed in this cabin for over a week and fell in love with just about everything Montana offers. We frequent the Colorado, Utah, and California slopes, but nothing compares to Big Sky's powder. Summer vacations in Hawaii and the Carribean now pale in comparison to the peacefulness of fly fishing on the Gallatin and Madison Rivers.

What makes this property unique

Riverfront cabin with blue ribbon trout fishing steps outside the backdoor. The minute you walk into the cabin, the river murmur will beckon you.
