Lodge came with everything we needed which was really helpful since we flew for our vacation and was limited with packing. Excellent views of the Yellowstone River and surrounding mountains! We saw wildlife every day of our stay! Convenient location to Yellowstone National Park. Gardiner is a quaint town to visit with plenty of shops and places to eat. Highly recommend Riverside Lodge!

We loved our stay at Yellowstone Riverside Lodge! It is such a great location. Steps from the river for fishing, elk in the field, prong horn on the road in the early morning. The house was very clean and the hosts, Kelly and Yancey, were very helpful answering all of our questions. Thanks so much for a great stay!

This was hands down the BEST vacation home we have stayed in! FULLY STOCKED with EVERYTHING we could need and more! We explored Yellowstone 3 full days. Every day brought a new adventure. It was amazing coming back to the comfort of this home! I can’t say enough good things about this place! Thank you for having us.

My Family and I were blown away by this home. We have stayed in many places over the last several years through Vrbo and this place was hands down the most fully stocked house we’ve ever stayed in. It was almost like the owners of the home had just stepped away, and we stepped in. They anticipated every need from kitchen, bathroom, entertainment, and beyond. Additionally, it was spotless and so well put together. We thoroughly enjoyed the wildlife that surrounded the home, even waking up one morning to a herd of elk right outside our front door. We really enjoyed seeing and hearing the river flowing from the backyard deck. I even caught my first cutthroat trout while fishing one morning. This place was simply amazing. I can’t stress enough how it had everything you could possibly need to live like you were in your own home. Such a warm and lovely home! Thank you for sharing your amazing home for our family to enjoy.

This was an exceptional place for so many reasons. The house is very inviting, beautiful views from all the windows in every room. One of the cleanest places I’ve stayed. Everything you need is there. We like to cook and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! The wildlife is stunning. Herds of Elk almost every day. Yellowstone Hot Springs was very relaxing and close by. Our hosts were very kind and even brought in a rollaway bed for my grandson. A peaceful, lovely vacation. We would all love to return.

Splendid and peaceful

This location was absolutely perfect in terms of Yellowstone NP, Grand Teton NP and Bozeman airport. Also, the home was so peaceful as it sits right next to the Yellowstone River. We enjoyed relaxing at the house as much as visiting the national parks. We enjoyed the house more than we expected and our expectations were already high in the first place. We highly recommend staying here!
