Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Pros: Number of bedrooms and bathrooms was great for our group. We also appreciated that the property was pet friendly. Communication prior to arrival with the host was excellent. Location was good and easy to find.Cons: The property looks a bit unkempt from the outside and the front steps were not in the best of shape. The property is very dated and could be much cleaner. There was not enough cutlery for our large group and kitchen items are older and have seen a lot of use. The pictures show a nice outdoor dining set but it was thrown/trashed underneath the deck so we weren’t able to enjoy the wonderful Island Park outdoors.
Great location on the golf course with easy access to anything you need. Older split level with creaky floors, small kitchen, few electrical outlets, and plumbing that causes the temperature to fluctuate in the upstairs showers. This explains the lower price, so you do get what you pay for. Host was great to work with and helped get us another night when our plans had to change at the last minute. The kids loved the air hockey table in the garage! There is no room to park in the garage, however, like the listing said there was.
We stayed while visiting Yellowstone with our adult children and grandchildren. The place is clean and comfortable with plenty of room to hang out and everything we needed to cook meals.
Really enjoyed our stay at this property. Very quiet neighborhood. Accommodations were clean . Would recommend to anyone looking for a pleasant place to stay.
It was so smooth and easy to get into the house. Everything was cleaned and was ready for us. We loved the location and the privacy we had. It worked out great for our family trip.
The location was excellent. Like other reviews, the home was dated on the inside and not super clean but we spent the majority of our time in the park.
The location is very convenient - maybe 25 minute from West Yellowstone. There is a grocery store right at the front of the neighborhood. Checking in and out was easy. The house may be a little more dated than the pictures but it was very comfortable (the kitchen is better stocked with equipment than other vrbo’s we’ve been to) and we really enjoyed our stay. Would recommend!

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness
Just OK
Property was affordable and appliances all worked but the interior was poorly maintained. No AC but the weather was cool enough that it was not too much of a problem while we were there in mid June.
The neighborhood is lovely and peaceful. The property perfect for our needs, having everything we needed. The house xould have been cleaner in kitchen area, like walls and sink area. Needs some good maintenance attention
This property was the first time we've rented a house instead of multiple hotel rooms for a party of 8. It gave us a chance to interact with each other that multiple rooms can't. We'll do this again. Good experience

About the host
Hosted by Bill at Brook Trout Inn West Yellowstone
The Brook Trout Inn started in 2000 with our first vacation rental cabin. And now we have a total of 9 vacation rental cabins and mountain homes for our guests to enjoy, and we've named this property Gateway to Yellowstone because even though it's located in Island Park, Idaho it's still only 20 miles from Yellowstone's West Gate.
We also live close by to all our properties, so if you need anything while you're staying with us, we're only a phone call away.
