The cabin was great for our family. Plenty of space for all 6 of us. Close to everything in West Yellowstone making it very walkable. Kitchen offered all the necessities to cook and eat at the cabin.

Not what I expected based on the pictures. It was in the 20's while there and the floors are freezing. They need some rugs. The bathroom was not level so it effected everything. Needed a stove in it for cooking. No comfortable sitting area. The cabins are basically in a small paved parking lot. I would not stay or advise anyone to stay there.

Room was clean. Bathroom beyond tiny. Property fee was ridiculously expernsive - $219 for three nights on top of $172.10 for the room per night. Definitely in no way worth $245.10 per night in the peak of offseason. Read the fine print

Easy walking distance to town for shopping or dining. The stay is within a 5 minute drive from Yellowstone, making it very convenient to those traveling for this reason. Hosts communicated recommendations and made themselves available if needed.
