They cabin was perfect for our needs. E we had a couple of issues with a toilet and a heater, but they immediately sent someone out to fix the issue. Very impressed with their quick response.
The cabin is very nice. There was a mistake made and the cabin was not clean when we arrived but they were quick to send cleaners and take care of it thankfully. We enjoyed staying there. There is some low water pressure in the kitchen faucet and at least one bathroom shower but other than that, everything was great!
The property was a good fit for our extended family of 19 in 8 family units. Each nuclear family was able to have their own bedroom space; bathroom capacity was a bit more challenging but we knew in advance to expect that. The location was fine - limited services are nearby. We generally ended up getting groceries in West Yellowstone when leaving the park.
We chose this listing to accommodate us & our kids, grandkids, & g-grandkids. Ended up with 15 adults & 5 kids. ABSOLUTELY beautiful home. The lofts were a favorite of the grandkids!! We never figured out how to use the gas fireplaces. Communication with property manager was excellent. Garage was a bonus!
We frequent the area often so when we rented the property we wanted to know exactly where the location was. We did not know until we committed. Then we had an opportunity to visit it a month or so prior. It was a little further away from Yellowstone than we would have preferred and the neighborhood wasn’t exactly what we would have expected.
However, once we all (19 of us)got situated and perused the property we were pleasantly surprised. Very clean, roomy, very well stocked, and easy to use. We had a GREAT TIME and the location didn’t turn out to be a problem after all. I would highly recommend it for your stay!
The pictures online did not do this cabin justice. It was much nicer inside than it looked. The rooms were large, the master suite was lovely, and two of the rooms had lofts which made putting little children to bed very convenient. We were a family of 25 and only had to put three children on sleeping bags in the family room. There were a lot of stairs to climb so that part would not be good for someone in a wheelchair, Although there is a lift chair in the garage. It was very convenient to the horseback riding and the lake activities, And was only a half hour from Yellowstone Park. We would stay there again, although we wish they'd have had some ping pong table or pool table for the teenagers. I gave it a 4 out of 5 for cleanliness because the screens on the windows needed washing and the outside area could have been hosed down, but the inside and the beds were very clean. Overall we have a lovely stay, and would give it a 4.7 rating
Granma and I hosted everyone of our kids and grandkids for a week -- 21 in total. Ranged in ages from 1.2 to, well, north of 70. The property could have not been better for us. You have to be careful who you assign to the bedroom on the main floor becuase it's adjacent to the kitchen (we could have done better with that decision!!). The huge garage was a plus for us, as we used it as the meeting place in the evenings, away from many of the bedrooms. The beds, the furnishings, etc. are great. Having owned short-term rentals near a national park and at the beach, we know the what to appreciate. We would recommend this property to large families for a get together like we had. Thanks to the owners for sharing it with us!!!
Loved the area and the house set up. Check in was a little confusing because the property had multiple lock boxes. I loved that the kitchen had labels on the cabinets and was stocked with everything we needed to cook. It was also convenient that the address was on outside doors. Some bedding had not been washed, but we didn’t use all the beds so that was ok. We did have to rerun the dishwasher upon arrival also. Just minor things.

Winchester Stay
The house itself is lovely. The rooms spacious. we determined the outside gas line was broken and the owners got someone out to repair it right away. The only issue we had was cleanliness. in master bedroom, the sheets were not clean as well as some of the downstairs beds. we were glad for the washer/dryer so we could wash the sheets. The place needs an overall good cleaning, lots of dust on furniture and ceiling fans. The yard could of used mowing as well. Other than that we enjoyed the space and the ability to spread out.
Beautiful cabin, 35min drive to Yellowstone west gate, fully equipped kitchen and very spacious cabin. Seemed a bit off the beaten path and private, good fit for our family of 11. plenty of room for more!
This was a well-equipped cabin. Far more available to use, from pack and plays to trash compactor. I wish there had been better instructions on how to keep the hot tub chemicals balanced and the hot tub operating well. I also wish I would have recognized the trash compactor sooner so we could have used our garbage space more efficiently. I can see why they are not necessarily on main listing, but the book in the cabin should have more instructions.
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful 3 story home. It had way more room than we needed but it worked wonderfully for us. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked for our whole group many times. The Bed and bathroom linens were plentiful and very clean. To be able to use the hot tub was wonderful, as well! Everything was ready and very clean for our stay.

Great location, big cabin to fit a large crowd. Plenty of parking. Kitchen was fully equipment and nice. Bathrooms could have been a lot cleaner.
