The whole family really enjoyed our stay, the kids really loved it. Dave and Diana were super friendly. The cabin and the location are exactly what I think of when someone says “Montana”.
Great location conveniently located close to the Madison, Gallatin and West Yellowstone. Cabin has fully a kitchen stocked with appliances, dishware and flatware. The views are incredible.
Very nice accommodations. David and Diana were very gracious host. It is reasonably close to Yellowstone and Ennis, a 1 and 1/2 from Bozeman. Some of the best trout fishing in the country! Loved this VRBO
Fantastic cabin in a remote location that was exactly what we wanted! David and Diana were so nice and showed us everything we needed! We made wonderful memories!
Incredible. If you want to be away from it all, but explore Yellowstone, horseback ride, walk trails, fish, check out geysers and springs, this is a great place. The owners are awesome!
Cozy cabin with wood burning stove. Great property, with another house and cabin with gear storage on same property. Walking distance to river with great fishing access.
Hosts were super friendly and helpful.
Will definitely stay here again!
Montana Spirit is an overall fantastic rental experience. The cabin itself is gorgeous, very clean and exceptionally well furnished for a rental (the kitchen has every pot, pan, dish, and other things you need. The knives are even sharp!) Access to the Madison is perfect for flyfishing stays, which is what we did. A short hike takes you to some of the best flyfishing on the planet. And the views from the valley are nothing short of spectacular, especially to an eastern flatlander such as myself. The hosts, Diana and David, are responsive and very friendly. Five stars all around!
Perfect home-base for our trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton!
David and Diana were exceptional hosts and their property and cabin were beautiful! They were prompt with communication and answered all of my questions and were there to greet us and show us around when we arrived and checked in on how our stay went before we left. The cabin had everything we needed and the views were gorgeous. The drive to West Yellowstone took about 35 minutes from the cabin but was an adventure in itself as we saw several moose, elk and pronghorn during our travels multiple times! I would definitely recommend staying here! It helped make our Yellowstone vacation even more special.
Great place just off the Madison River for the 6 of us for our fishing trip. Not far for us to go to where we met our guides to float the Madison and Henry’s Fork Rivers. Also fished the Gallatin in Big Sky, which wasn’t a bad drive. West entrance to Yellowstone NP was 30min. Dave and Diana were super kind and easy to communicate with. The house was spacious, very quiet and peaceful, had everything we needed. Enjoyed the antelope in the yard each morning! A little confusing on VRBO regarding the House vs the Guest Lodge, but easily cleared up talking to the owners. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks again Dave and Diana!
We’ve been coming to the Madison River for years to fish. This time we brought our girls to fish and tour the area and wanted a larger place to stay. David and Diana’s place was perfect! They are so nice and friendly! The house is fully stocked (no need to buy condiments!!) and we had fun playing games and cooking, barbecuing, and being outside. Their family joined us for fireworks right out back on the 4th of July! We’ll definitely be back next year!

Uncomfortable
Cabins and view are amazing, we saw eagles, mule deer, mountain goats, antelope and even a fox. The only real issue is the owners stay at the property with you. Almost like having a baby sitter. Owner even walked in our room unannounced while my husband was still in bed.
This property was amazing. The location was remote and absolutely beautiful. It was about 30-40 minutes to the West Yellowstone entrance. Check in was an easy process with the hosts meeting us and showing us around. The cabin was cozy and comfortable to return to each evening. It was well equipped, even having bear spray to borrow and wood for bonfires. There was abundant wildlife nearby. We saw goats on the nearby mountain, an eagle, a beaver by the river, and had antelopes in the yard. I would highly recommend this cabin and we would love to return again in the future.
It was exactly what we were looking for. House was in a private valley with wildlife everywhere. Elk, antelope, big horn sheep, mule deer, and bald eagles were seen from the property the week we were there. Not to mention the blue ribbon trout stream right out the front door. This place is perfect for an outdoors family. Easy ride of about 40 or 45 minutes into Yellowstone National Park.Only disappointment was hot tub wasn’t functional at the time we were there. The wife was looking forward to that. Other than that the place was just about perfect. Will be back and thanks for letting us into your home.
The property was located in the flats beneath the nearby mountains. Lovely views 360 degrees. River access, but tough to fish directly in front of the house. Road into the property was long and rough. The home itself worked perfectly for the 6 of us. The bedrooms were comfortable. Having two bathrooms was a plus. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook. The only real disappointment was not being notified that the hot tub would be inoperative. Wish we would have been notified prior to our trip as we packed bathing suits and could have used it after fighting current all day in the river. Overall, the property met our needs.
Beauty everywhere you look! Such a great place to connect with family and nature. Loved this place! 50 minutes to Yellowstone, or Ennis. Walk to the Madison River and fish. Dave and Diana are great hosts! They live on the property in another home so never a problem with getting questions answered, and privacy not an issue. Highly recommend!
Private location a very short distance from the Madison river . The most comfortable most fully equipped home imaginable. Diana and David could not be anymore gracious. David was extremely generous with his time with us pointing out his favorite fishing spots .
The entire experience could not have been any better. Bill Stewart
The property and cabin are perfect. The surroundings are beautiful with deer and antelope. The river is flowing and perfect as well. My family and I could not be happier. The host was very accommodating even when we sprung a last minute early arrival on her. She waited until almost midnight to check us in and get us settled. Again could not be,happier.
This property was a wonderful surprise. If you want peace, quiet and a sky full of stars at night look no further. The house is beautiful and was very clean. Our hosts were very nice and provided great information about must see areas and stores where we could shop. We hope to return soon!
