About this property

BEAUTIFUL 5 STAR LOG HOME ON 26 ACRES! LAKE VIEWS, STOCKED POND, 18 MILES TO YNP

We call our home Valhalla Ranch as an ode to my father, the ultimate Viking of our family, because this was his heaven. We encourage you to bring your family and enjoy one of Island Park, Idaho’s most sought after locations. Our beautiful cabin is set back on its own private paradise of 26 majestic acres with its own private pond and stream. We stock the pond with rainbow trout making fishing one of the children's favorite activities. Valhalla's magnificent views will have you mesmerized for hours gazing at Henry’s Lake, one of the top fishing lakes in the country, or scouring the mountainside for wildlife that migrate through the area. And the best part is that the house is just 14 miles from the gates of Yellowstone National Park!

We offer a spacious 5860 square ft home with four private bedrooms, an open sleeping loft as the 5th bedroom, and three bathrooms for the comfort and convenience of up to 12 guests. All linens are provided for your stay. There is a mini split in the kitchen/dining area as well as one in the primary suite, both providing heat and AC when needed. There are fans in the living room, kitchen/dining area and the two main floor bedrooms. Both the Loft and the main floor bedroom have portable AC units. The downstairs bedrooms stay much cooler in July/August and have floor fans if you need them.

Our open floor plan provides wonderful spaces for families to gather. The large living room, with floor to ceiling windows, is the perfect spot to enjoy the incredible views, watch television, or read and play games. The large kitchen is well stocked and has lots of room for all of the chefs in your group. Enjoy fixing a home cooked meal with family and friends in this well-appointed kitchen or barbecue steaks on the outside grill on the back patio. The dining room seats 8 with additional seating for 4 at the bar. Outdoor dining is encouraged on the expansive wrap around deck.

Enjoy a rousing game of billiards in the downstairs family room or play ping pong in the "kids room". A laundry room with full size washer and dryer are available for your convenience with all supplies provided.

Our outdoors is what sets Valhalla Ranch apart from the rest. Imagine wading in a private stream while watching eagles soar overhead. You will never feel closer to Heaven on Earth than at our little slice of paradise.

Valhalla has Direct TV and a very good reception. Cell phone coverage is excellent.

Here at Valhalla Ranch we offer you just what you need on your vacation whether it's a trip to explore Yellowstone National Park, fishing in one our famous rivers and lakes or simply enjoying nature. We look forward to your arrival and enjoy your stay!

Beautiful location & close to many local attractions! Elk in the backyard and fish in the pond.We ran out of toilet paper, not enough wash cloths or towels for all so had to do laundry a couple times which is pretty minor in the scheme of things. Thank for the memories

Awesome place!!

We had a wonderful reunion vacation with our family of 8 from other states! Plenty of room for the eight of us. I would only say that if there were more people, it would have been a little more difficult with only three bathrooms. But awesome views and a beautiful place to stay! Can’t wait to book again for another time!

Spacious Family Home

Had a wonderful stay with family at Valhalla! Although we only stayed for four nights, we had a great time, cooking meals in the spacious kitchen and playing games on the front lawn. We also caught a few trout in the small pond! We drove into Yellowstone a couple of days and stocked up on supplies in West Yellowstone. Enjoyed great birdwatching from the expansive deck and the lake view of course never gets old. After hearing the elk bugle here and there for a few days, we finally got to watch a herd on the mountains behind the house. The property is a lovely respite and worth the little extra time to stay outside the park and be able to do your own cooking and laundry! If you have a big group that wants to stick together with accommodations —Valhalla is for you!

Wonderful Stay!

The property and home were both just amazing! They outdoor deck/s were perfect, enjoyed quite a bit of time there! The owner understands that the little things can make all the difference! For example, they had laundry detergent available which is much appreciated when traveling. Also available were baggies, some condiments and some things that are hard to travel with or you just forget to purchase but really need. Owner was very timely in all communications which was just great! Would definitely stay again.

This was a spectacular place for us! The house is equipped with anything you need and plenty of space for all 12 of us. The views are stunning! It’s in an excellent location for Yellowstone and all of the surrounding activities. We enjoyed hiking, fishing, Yellowstone, white water rafting, horseback riding and a rodeo. So much laughter and so many memories made here. Thank you for all of your hospitality.

Amazing home and location

This property has it all! The views are breathtaking. The house itself is clean, in good condition, well stocked, and surrounded by so much wildlife. It had everything we needed and more! We enjoyed walking around the property and soaking up the views. The pond was stocked with fish and we were lucky enough to catch a few. Perfect spot to go to Yellowstone. We hope to return!

The Most Amazing Place at Yellowstone

We absolutely loved staying at Valhalla. The property and house are absolutely beautiful. The view was stunning. It was close to Yellowstone and the things we wanted to do. Our kids had a blast with the games and activities in the house. The house was equipped with every possible thing you could need for cooking. Cellular reception worked well. The property owner/manager Rosalyn was very helpful and accommodating. Honestly our experience at Valhalla was as perfect of an experience as anyone could expect. We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend Valhalla to anyone that is looking for an amazing place to stay near Yellowstone.

Something for Everyone

Pictures don’t do justice here, absolutely breathtaking views all around! We came to visit Yellowstone and of course that was incredible but the entire family had the best times just hanging out at the property. There were lawn games, we caught fresh trout in the private pond, (delicious BBQ) the pool table was a big hit and so many cozy places to just sit and enjoy the views. Would definitely come again and would recommend 100%

Valhalla, heaven indeed!

Wow! This home and its surrounding beauty left my family and I in awe. Pictures can't capture how truly beautiful it is. A trip to Yellowstone National Park led us to booking this property since it is only 14 miles from the West Gate/Entrance. All the comforts of home away from home. We had a great time bonding and taking in the breath taking sceneries/landscape of this home. We even saw some mule deer in backyard. We had such a great time that we plan on returning.

a little bit of heaven

we were a family of 10 including 4 under the age of 10. House set up perfectly as did the surrounding yard and area. All meals were prepared and eaten on premises. We did purchase our food in Idaho Falls which had a wider selection. We were thankful of having such a nice home to stay as Y'stone was closed for most of our time. Another reminder of planning for the unplanned events.

Spectacular House

This is a beautiful house that was plenty spacious for our family vacation to Yellowstone. The kitchen was well-equipped. The grandkids turned the upstairs loft into their "clubhouse". The adults enjoyed games of pool, and the front yard was just right for a couple games of family kickball. The view from the deck is spectacular. Only negatives to us is that the house could use a half bath and we wished it were a little closer than the 20 minute drive to Yellowstone. Yellowstone is such a large place that some nights it took us 1 1/2 - 2 hours to get back to the house. But overall, this was just an incredible house for an incredible vacation.

As described and more

Our family of 10 (6-70 yrs) had a memorable trip! The house was immaculate and saying it's well-stocked is an understatement. Lots of nice touches too...huckleberry jam and honey with welcome note, pop-up puppet theater for kids, etc. Plenty of room to spread out and have your own space if needed. View is spectacular and pictures are accurate. Kids had fun fishing in pond and playing frisbee golf (nice lawn in front of house for games). I wasn't sure about staying outside the park as it's 15 minutes to YNP entrance and then add whatever you are visiting, so it can be a long ride. We went into the park 3 of the 4 days. But the house made it worth it and there's plenty of wildlife to look at along the way. Rozalynn was quick to answer any questions and you can tell the owners take pride in Valhalla. Thank you for sharing your home. All around, a trip our family will never forget!!
