Perfection

I cannot say enough good things about this cabin! Hands down the most well equipped kitchen in a VRBO I've ever stayed in. The cabin is wonderfully furnished and comfy with a cabin feel you'd expect in this area. Owners are quick to respond to any questions or concerns you might have. It's close to the West Entrance of Yellowstone and the shopping/ restaurant selection is decent in West Yellowstone, the Wild West Pizzaria and Saloon was our favorite hands down.

Perfect cabin off the beaten path.

We enjoyed our visit to this quintessential Yellowstone cabin! Lots of room and comfortable spaces. Wish we had more time to spend there. I didn't read about moose bedding down in the yard until the last day. Had we know we would have carefully looked for them in the early morning and evening! The only thing I would let future guests know is that you are asked to wash all the towels and strip and start sheets. As busy as we were, this made for a late night before we left the next day. You will want to plan accordingly. Thanks for having us!

The Perfect Launching Pad to Yellowstone

My family of 4 had such a lovely stay at this charming home for 4 nights in June. Everything about our stay was perfect and the place came exactly as advertised. Communication from the property manager was great. The space is really comfortable and clean (loved the front porch rockers), with a well-stocked kitchen and plenty of conveniences already included that were greatly appreciated (bear spray, picnic baskets, a pantry full of seasonings). It was an easy 20 minute drive to the West Yellowstone park entrance, while still being remote enough that you feel truly in the wilderness. We’ve stayed in a lot of rentals as a family, and this was by far my most enjoyable experience.

Yellowstone Getaway

Our group of six had a very comfortable and cozy stay at Aspen Getaway! Communication with the hosts was great, check in was very easy, and the property was easy to find. 20 mins from Yellowstone West Entrance and downtown West Yellowstone. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of dinner ware for all. We would come back and stay in a heartbeat!

Perfect retreat for my crew!

We felt at home as we were having adventures! It was the perfect size for our 6 kiddos (ages 12-2) and grandma and grandpa. Enough beds and spaces to not get on each other’s nerves but still be together! Everything was well stocked and high quality! Owners were super sweet and even gave us a call when there was a report of a bear in the neighborhood to help us stay extra safe!

Won't disappoint

Of all the places I have stayed this is one of the best. It was accommodating from the renter responding quickly when ever I asked questions, there was so many hangers and hooks for use, many utensils, spices to cook with (which was helpful when I was making burgers), everything was labeled especially helpful when switching on the lights. Everyone loved the rocking chairs and the Air fryer was such a plus when we had take outs for the fries. The place was amazingly clean. The place is a little over 20mins from West Yellowstone town which was perfect to do take-outs and get to the house after a long day walking around Yellowstone NP. If I plan to visit Yellowstone again this is the number one choice for me.

Perfect place to stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was very cleaned and well stocked. It was very comfortable. It was one of the favorite VRBOs we have stayed at. We saw “Winky” the moose who lives in the area one evening. We would definitely recommend this cabin and would stay there again. Beautiful comfortable cabin!

Beautiful cabin in the woods.

What a lovely home set in a little enclave of homes on 5 roads. We had so much fun seeing the resident bull moose, Clyde, sitting on the deck or porch with rocking chairs listening to bugling elk and at night the coyotes. Mesa Falls (a beautiful mini Niagara Falls) is just 25 minutes away. A must see. We fell in love with West yellow stone. Everything you need is in this wonderful property . The kitchen is well stocked, bear spray and bell, flashlights. All the fun essentials. We had a Blast and wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Thxs for sharing your lovely home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About Gary and ChaRee Preston - Property Manager
ChaRee has managed this property for years and takes great pride in making sure your visit is special.

About Greg and Lisa McAlister - Owners
We purchased this home in September 2017. Greg grew up in Texas but I grew up in Gardiner, MT (the north entrance of the park). Buying this wonderful home in Island Park is almost coming home for me! We currently live in the central valley of California and look forward to lots of great summer adventures in Island Park.

Why they chose this property

Besides the house itself, we love the abundance of trails in the area, closeness to Henry's Lake and are over the moon to be so close to Yellowstone. No matter where I have travelled, my heart has always belonged to Yellowstone and Greg has grown to feel the same.
