Walking distance to West Yellowstone's commercial heart, and close to the the National Park West entrance. Clean, well equipped and cosy, perfect as a base for a three day exploration of the Park.
This unit perfectly suited our needs for our recent trip to Yellowstone. Our room was clean, check in was easy, allgreat location, just a few miles from the entrance to the lake
Highly recommend the Bucking Moose. The Wolf Cabin is great for a family of 4. Excellent location, super clean, easy check-in, safe. We will come back!!
This place has a spot on sense of what it is offering its customers. The description was nearly 100% accurate. Would definitely stay here again if at Yellowstone.
I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay at. Right outside of the west Yellowstone entrance this spot is close to the Main Street of West Yellowstone. Clean, easy check in/ check out process and it looked exactly like what I saw online. I would highly recommend
The room was very clean and check in/check out was easy. I liked the electric fireplace and information sign. Walls are a little thin as we expected from other reviews. We slept well overall
Bucking Moose is 1,000 stars. There aren't even enough stars. It was adorable!! Perfect location, beautiful furnishings, just amazing!! I am already planning my next visit.
I wish I had brought an electric kettle to boil water (there was a keureg), but otherwise the place was perfect for a weekend in west Yellowstone. The location gave easy access to everything. It was spacious for 2 people and a dog. The kitchenette is bare-bones so plan to eat out or bring easy-prep snacks
We got out of the park and needed somewhere to crash before driving home. Room to organize our stuff, a refrigerator to keep our food cold, coffee making ability in the morning, a good shower and a good bed. Parked right in front of the door which was nice with all our gear. Just what we needed.
Stayed at the Bucking Moose for two nights. Comfortable, clean and warm…listing was accurate. Checkin was easy, check out was a breeze. Park located 1 block away, great for running dogs. Great location on main road, easily walk a few blocks to restaurants and shops. Convenient store located a block away is the late store, good to know when staying during times of early closures. Great place, will definitely stay again! Thanks Sweet Home Montana!
