About this property

Located 10 miles north of Yellowstone Park.

4 bedroom with ensuite bathrooms and a bedroom loft, with full bath on main level, sleeps 12.

A bit of history...In the late 1890's, my great-grandmother and grandfather ran a boarding house and saloon in the mining town of Aldridge in Cinnabar Basin. When her husband became ill, they sold the saloon and boarding house and moved the family to a ranch property along the Yellowstone River which continues to be the primary residence of the Rigler family.

Fast forward...This development on the ranch property, Rigler's River Rest, is a timber home located 10 miles north of Yellowstone Park right on the banks of Yellowstone River. Situated on one of the few remaining riverfront properties with easy, accessible fishing from the banks, the four bedroom home and loft can accommodate 12 people.

Each bedroom features an ensuite bathroom and can be either a twin or king bedroom. The full bath on the main level serves as a bathroom for the loft that can accommodate up to four adults.The kitchen is a country chef's dream. With an open and social floor plan, the kitchen opens into the living room and dining room space. Outdoor space blends with indoor space, with floor to ceiling windows. It captures one of the most pristine views the Yellowstone has to offer.

There is a TV with basic service, Wi-Fi, central air and heat, and a free standing gas fireplace. Rigler's River Rest provides unparalleled 360 degree views of the Yellowstone and surrounding mountains. This place is ideal for groups of fishermen, family and friend gatherings or leadership retreats. Four night minimum stay; three night minimum is negotiable.

****Please note that there are no exceptions to my cancellation policy. Snow, floods, hail, rain, fire, bad traffic, cancelled flights do not exempt you from the policy. I strongly recommend you buy trip insurance to cover your trip in the event you need to cancel.

Rigler’s Rest was nothing short of amazing. The place was spacious, well stocked with everything you may possibly need during a stay, and the decor was on point! We enjoyed every moment of our stay here and the views of the river were spectacular. We enjoyed the outdoor deck areas. After doing lots of travel, I’m convinced VRBO renting is better than motels and hotels. Check in was easy and Tara was very responsive. I hope to stay here again some day.

Perfect Family Stay

Our stay on the Yellowstone River was perfect for outdoor enthusiasts! The view was incredible! The house accommodated 12 people easily. It was clean and the kitchen well stocked. If I had a question, Susan was a text away. Overall, we couldn't ask for more. I have already recommended this house to many of my friends.

Incredible Experience, Absolute Gem of a Place!

This house is incredible! It is very easy to get to, close to the park, even closer to the lovely town of Gardiner, cozy, relaxing, and great for families. There was a ton of space (10 beds in all) and great amenities for a week long trip. We cooked there most nights, enjoying the views and sunset from the comfort of the private balcony. It is very quiet and relaxing, and exactly what you would hope for in a Yellowstone vacation house. Tara was also extremely responsive and helpful, couldn't ask for a better host. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to stay with a family for their Yellowstone trip.

Perfect house for our Yellowstone vacation

The Rigler River Rest was the perfect home base for our Yellowstone adventures. The house is immaculate and plenty of room for a large group, excellent scenery, and fully equipped with pretty much anything you will need during your stay. Tara was great to work with and we will definitely return if we go back to the area.

Absolutely stunning

Great location, exceptionally clean, breathtaking views from every window, kitchen has everything u need and then some. We absolutely loved our stay here, 15minutes from Yellowstone entry, 10 minutes from restaurants and groceries. Great communication with owners also.. that has not always been the case with other rentals. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect location

This house is great. Located in a beautiful spot with enough things to do nearby. We could have stayed in the house all day for four days and it still would have been a perfect trip. Gardiner is a great town with friendly people and this house is the perfect place to stay for your trip to South Montana.

Awesome trip!

Riglers Rest was a perfect place to enjoy the beauty of Montana with Yellowstone right next door! Tara was very helpful with suggestions for Yellowstone tour and fishing guides and her Mom was very helpful with different hiking spots. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need to eat in but it was also fun to go into Gardiner 10 miles away for a bite to eat too. I could go on and on but try it for yourself well worth it!

Exceptional Property!!!

No words can describe this property but WOW and outstanding. We were a small group of 4 and loved everything. Best location just outside the town but still close to Yellowstone. The house was spotlessly clean and has everything to make the stay comfortable. Large house with a fully stocked large kitchen with top notch appliances and cookware. Plenty of living and dining space. Beautiful views of the river and mountains. Nice that each bedroom has its own bathroom. Washer and dryer came in handy. Everything is so well thought out and organized it’s truly unbelievable . We woke up early and enjoyed coffee on the deck and watched the elk in the yard. Also a few Canadian geese family nesting near by was fun to watch all the babies. Firepit on the deck made for a cozy evening and hanging out.We never wanted to leave. If i had a house in Montana this would be the perfect place.

Amazing!

I cannot begin to say how wonderful this property is. We have never stayed at a property so well stocked with anything and everything you might need. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. In fact, I always bring my own pillow and used the one provided instead! 😃 The location was wonderful with mountain view’s all around and the Yellowstone River off the back deck. We were able to see eagles and elk almost daily. We had one very small problem pop up ( the gas grill tank was empty). And that was fixed within minutes. Communication was clear and prompt. We would most definitely stay here again. If fact we hope to.

When they say the home has everything you could need it isn’t kidding! From the fully stocked appliances and basics in the kitchen to the extra bear spray, bug spray, and sunscreen we were over prepared for our trip in to the park. Everything was clean and so cozy and the owner was incredibly easy to get ahold of if I had any questions. Usually we stay somewhere in Gardner, but this home was well worth the extra 15 minutes to get to the park entrance.

This property was perfect for our family getaway in North Yellowstone.First off, check in was a complete breeze, all we had to do was punch in a door code that was sent to us prior to our arrival via e-mail. The property grounds are stunning and right off of the Yellowstone River. The house was immaculately cleaned and very well stocked. The kitchen is large and able to cater to large groups. The pantry had all of the kitchen equipment you could possibly need; a slow cooker, Vita-mix, stand mixer, toaster over, microwave, Instant pot, etc. There is a large grill outside as well. The bedrooms (four in total with an additional loft containing four more beds) were large and clean, each having their own bathrooms complete with showers. The beds were very comfortable.The living area is spacious and open with very large windows to show off the amazing views. The deck on the back of the house was huge with multiple seating arraignments. Sitting out there in the morning with a cup of coffee and at night for stargazing was so incredibly peaceful. I did extensive searches online to find the perfect home for our vacation with two MUST HAVES in mind: Mountain views in all four directions and to be able to hear running water outside, this location delivered on both. I absolutely recommend this property for anyone wanting to vacation in Gardiner.

The property had everything we needed. The bedrooms with baths was wonderful. Each couple had their own space and didn’t need to share. The location was perfect for all the things we had planned. We spent several days going in and out of the Park but also kicking back and enjoying the house and it’s beautiful views. We won’t hesitate to recommend this home to others wanting to enjoy your beautiful area.
