What an amazing apartment! Such thoughtful details, postcard views out of all the windows and a cozy fire in the evenings. It was a perfect retreat. Just being out on the property with its endless vistas surrounded by white capped mountains and the sounds of whistling winds and bird song was nourishing. Watching the sky and its ever changing weather pattern was also a treat. I didn’t meet the owners in person but Pete was so prompt and helpful with all his communications and offered great suggestions for my stay. The short drive to Yellowstone was an added plus and i had a spectacular day of wildlife spotting. I would definitely stay here again and am grateful for the positive experience. Thanks so much!

Escape To Magical Yellowstone Park.

We loved staying at this beautiful Pray property set in a the Paradise valley with incredible views. We were welcomed with a gift and a warm reception by our hosts. Comfort was a priority and this need was met. Having a wood stove made the atmosphere even more ambient and romantic. I would highly recommend this property and hope to return in the near future.

My favorite VRBO stay ever!

This retreat was absolutely lovely! The location is adjacent to so many great spots in the Paradise Valley area of Montana. We enjoyed Pray, Livingston, Yellowstone, etc during our 3 night stay. The retreat itself is immaculate and charming. We loved the deer in the yard throughout our stay and the extra little touches like the wood burning stove and firewood right next to it. Our hosts also left a sweet welcome gift for us and the info book on the table had all menus and maps/info for the surrounding attractions. Five star stay in my book! We would love to return here soon.

This romantic retreat is the perfect getaway! Our hosts, Peter & Derilynn were very helpful, communicative, and so welcoming! A great location in Paradise Valley (Livingston) area, country setting, but close to everything from YNP, Pray, Livingston & the Bozeman airport. The retreat is beautifully appointed and they have thought of everything you may need, plus all the extras! The kitchen is stocked with all the essentials and a gas grill available for your convenience. It is so perfect & comfortable to come back to after a day out! Looking forward to booking again for next year! MT won our hearts!

Outstanding all around

We could not have been more satisfied with our stay in the Romantic Retreat for Two! Peter and Derilynn have designed such a peaceful, cozy space. It was relaxing from the moment we walked in with calming music and a heavenly smell and even a special treat. Everything, and more, that we needed was available. They even provided bear spray to carry with us as we toured Yellowstone. The bathroom had plenty all the basic toiletries you could need and the softest towels I've ever used. The hosts communicated well from the time of booking, through check-in, and throughout our stay. They have an adorable family of foxes living nearby that were so fun to watch play. It was a genuine Montana experience and we will most certainly return for a stay at their property again someday. Thank you, Pete and Derilynn, for sharing your slice of Paradise Valley and giving us wonderful memories to keep with us always.

It’s hard to describe perfection but that’s how I feel about our stay at the Romantic Retreat! From the beginning Pete communicated well in advance of our stay and answered all questions quickly! Gave me exceptional recommendations on a tour guide, Chris from Paradise Photography to advising me on making dinner reservations and where the best restaurants were located! On arrival the place was immaculate and soft music was playing as we went up the stairs. On the bed was a sweet gift from Derilyn and Pete with a card welcoming us and Derilyn even made it a point to put Happy birthday to my boyfriend on the back. I had mentioned it in a communication with Pete, but yo take that extra step just warmed my heart! I got to hangout with Hilary ( outside cat or welcome party lol ) she’s super friendly but only hangs out for a minute. We were fortunate enough to meet Derilyn when she brought us homemade cookies on our second day! Again, just that extra effort that makes you feel like family! Towards our last day we got to meet Pete as well, just salt of the earth kind of people! If you want a beautiful place to get away with gorgeous scenery then I suggest you reach out to Pete and Derilyn! You will be glad you did! Thank you Greg & Kris ( now future Mrs. Parker) yes he asked me to marry him on our getaway!
