Perfect place to host a family reunion! Main lodge was great! We had 54 people for dinner & the dining table & deck held us all. Bedrooms were also great! Liza was a pleasure to work with! Will absolute consider coming back!

You are an absolute lovely bunch and we hope we get to host you again!
We had our first ever family reunion at this property it accommodated all of us. It was wonderful. There’s enough room to roam room for everyone to be doing whatever they want. It was a wonderful place to stay cannot beat the beauty and the closeness to Yellowstone and shopping.

We are so glad you enjoyed! Thank you for joining us!
We stayed here 5 nights for a family reunion with 22 people. The 11 bedrooms with a mix of bunk beds and queen beds, the living room, the kitchen, and outdoor spaces fit our needs perfectly. The river access was a plus for our younger children and adults. It reminded me of being at summer camp.
Our family had an absolute blast! It was perfect for all 22 of us. There were bald eagles and elk everywhere. Having the river flow through the property is amazing! We loved entering the park through the North and having Gardiner as home base. Accommodations are rustic and ready for some updates but we had everything we needed and had a fantastic time.
North Yellowstone Lodge and Hostel is The Most perfect place that we have ever held a ladies retreat! From the wonderful lodge beautifully situated by the river and surrounded by picturesque mountains, to the comfortable and sweet sleeping accommodations and, we have never enjoyed a more perfect place to hold our Ladies Retreat. Thankyou So Much!hold our retreat!hold oretreabathrooms and
We're all over Montana (as well as Texas and Kansas) so it was an amazing place for our family reunion. It was a great central spot for family from Hamilton, Helena, and Billings to drive and be together. So excited to have lots of things to do for the kids too with the incredible game room. We also ventured into the park and enjoyed the hot springs down the road. All weekend everyone kept commenting on what a perfect spot it was. So grateful for our stay and everything that was provided for us. Thank you so much!
We enjoyed our stay. Great location and setup for us. I am not complaining but there were Two things I did not see in other reviews that you may want to know- no dishwasher so take disposable unless you want to do lots of dishes by hand. Foyer is extremely difficult with a wheelchair and path from lodge to sleeping area and bathroom is not wheelchair friendly. Mom can go short distances on walker so it worked for us. We would stay here again as a huge family.

Over-promised and under-delivered. Old property that is in need of repairs and basic upkeep. The property is able to hold 30 people but the kitchen is too small and understocked with respect to dishes, pots and only had a 4 burner stove. Outlets in the kitchen didn’t work. One of the microwaves was broken. Lights burned out in bunk house rooms and outside room doors. This property has such great promise but needs maintenance and upkeep to be outstanding.

I am so sorry you were disappointed, please let me know what other dishes you felt you needed. I did bring down more mixing and serving bowls and platters as well as drinking glasses. I am not sure which microwave wasn't working but will also look into that. New siding on the dorm building went on this fall as well as new door locks and handles on all of the rooms. We do like to keep the building welcoming for groups to create memories. Thank you for the feedback.
We booked the Yellowstone lodge and hostel when we were planning a large group vacation but weren’t sure a total head count. We had a total of 27 show up ages 2-70. The lodge was a perfect place for so many families to come together but have their privacy in their own private rooms. I would say the pictures online make the yard look larger than it is but it didn’t seem to be an issue. The kids had a blast exploring. The hot springs right down the road is fantastic. The proximity to the park was great especially being able to pass through town for gas and ice each morning. Pictures online showed an outdoor griddle but there wasn’t one on the property. I’d suggest more fans be brought in as there weren’t enough for every room and even early June it gets warm. The kitchen is FULLY stocked. We will definitely book this for our next Yellowstone trip.
We had a family reunion at this place. We did tye dye and family Olympics. There was plenty of space in the main house for meals and other games (board games, cards, etc). In between family events, familys would go to Yellowstone and meet back at the VRBO for supper.
Beautiful, scenic & spacious but rustic property right on the Yellowstone river! Lots of furniture to accommodate our large group. Bathrooms were spacious and clean and so were the rooms although spiders were persistent throughout and made it hard for some to relax enough to sleep. Would recommend spraying. Kitchen is not spacious to accommodate 35 people (counter space is not adequate and it's tile) although we appreciated the 2 large refrigerators. Guests need to bring measuring cups and paper goods as there is no dishwasher or enough plates/cups/silverware to go around. Deck outside has lots of seating and a large table which was great! The wifi was weak and spotty in the lodge and as soon as you left the main lodge it didn't work in the bedrooms. One of the rooms (Evert) had a mattress that dipped a lot in the middle and happened to be my parents room so they had to buy pillows to be able to sleep. The property is dated but large and on a great lot with plenty of parking. We wanted to set up a volleyball net on the grass but there are sprinklers staked all over so we couldn't play but the kids did enjoy the sandy beach by the river. Liz is very prompt in fixing the power going out in 2 of the rooms and called an electrician the very next day to get it fixed. We really appreciated that! We enjoyed our stay!

Thank you Brigitte, we enjoyed having you. I wish we had had you move the sprinklers to play volleyball (and then move back!). We replaced the bedframe after you let me know it was broken. We have downshifted to recommend for 25 people :) more kitchen elbow room.
The property's location exceeded our expectations. It truly sits on the Yellowstone River, providing amazing views of the river (from the lodge and the rooms). Using the maintained path, you can walk down to the sandy shoreline where our kids were able to play and swim, while the adults could fish. The lodge provided a great spot to hang out, share meals, and play games. The rooms and bathrooms were all clean and well furnished for our needs. The only downside to comment on is the absence of A/C (which is consistent with the listing); however, fans were provided in each room.
This was a great location for our visit to Yellowstone and allowed us to have a wonderful family vacation.
