South Plateau Cabins - A Unique and Beautiful Log Home


WELCOME
Make your Yellowstone vacation a truly authentic and comfortable experience with this 3 bedroom 2 bath log home.

The living room and dining area make up almost half of the cabin. With its vaulted wood ceiling, grand fireplace, and handmade staircase, the room is both beautiful and comfortable. A Samsung HD television makes the room feel even more like home. The dining table has two additional leaves and six sturdy matching chairs.

Great Place to stay with in (long) walking distance of all the shops!

Cozy rustic feeling log cabin not too far from the main strip in West Yellowstone. Very clean and great location. Beds were comfy and the place was quiet. Two buildings away from High Mark Rentals which is nice if you are renting equipment for ATVing or Snowmobiling.

When we entered the cabin we were so impressed! It’s beautiful, rustic and very comfortable. We all slept well on the beds. Beautiful linens. My adult children loved the large tv and relaxed on the couches, playing Mario Kart. The bathrooms had all we needed. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen had all we needed if we had. We enjoyed our stay very much and definitely stay again.

Beautiful Cabin

Even though we were impacted by the flooding in Yellowstone this cabin and the other local things to do by Justin helped us still have a great time. The cabin was ideal for our family. The park was so close and glad we got at least one day in it before the shut down.

30th Anniversary Celebration with friends in the snow!

The log cabin is located on the edge of town with all needed conveniences (groceries/shopping/restaurants) and fun activities close by. Our stay being in January with a massive snow fall, found the log cabin in a magical setting. Only one neighbor who we could barely see over the snow - it was great! Justin, our host, was amazing, kind and helpful. The cabin was very clean & cozy with plenty of space. The wood fireplace was perfect after a day of snowmobiling & we found all our basic needs met in the kitchen, which included basic seasonings. The bedrooms were spacious with plenty of storage & beds were very comfortable as we all slept like babies. The log cabin was the perfect place for our stay; it gave us that real Yellowstone feel.... I would highly recommend this place.

Wonderful stay

It was a wonderful stay. If I had to search for anything negative to say it would be that short women can't see in the mirrors. So move the one from the front bedroom to where you can see yourself. We did. And if you have long hair and use a dryer, bring one. The one in the master will not dry your hair. Again...who cares. Neither of those things were actually negative or affected our great stay. We had a wonderful time even with rude locals. The cabin is actually in town and very clean.

Nice stay and it is a real log cabin!

We had a great stay at the log cabin. The kitchen had everything we needed and even a rice maker! We found it very comfortable and clean. The laundry is right next door almost (don't go across the street to the more expensive laundromat). The yard was overgrown but we didn't care. You park right in the driveway. The best part was the host. He responds IMMEDIATELY. Truly, you can message through the app and it's like texting with someone. He's very responsive and helpful, even when I was asking several questions that were clearly written other places! Very appreciated!

It was very convenient to the park and town, but not good for young children (open railings on staircase and 2nd floor landing). We were also surprise that the washer and dryer were coin-operated and next door at the TV park
