Luxury 3 bed/2 bath river front house, 10 minutes from Yellowstone Park
New to the market- April 2023! Welcome to the Yellowstone Rangers Outpost, where luxury meets Yellowstone National Park. Sitting on the banks of the Yellowstone River and only 10 minutes from Gardiner, the northern entrance to the Park, is a gorgeous 3 bed/ 2 bath modern vacation rental. The owners have family ties to the area and have recently renovated the home with plush functionalism to ensure their family and guests are pampered and comfortable while visiting all that southwest Montana has to offer.
Enjoy stunning views of the Gallatin and Absaroka Mountain Ranges and the majestic Yellowstone River from the wrap around deck or through the large picture windows from the main living and kitchen areas as well as the master bedroom upstairs. A sliding glass door leads to the southern facing deck with ample outdoor seating for enjoying sunsets. Handpicked original western artwork, bronze statues, large Indian style area rugs and original Yellowstone Park signs bridge the modern rustic décor to the home’s chic layout.
Just inside the front door is an entry way with a wooden console table, river rock coat hangers and large bench for easy removal and storage of outdoor gear. The main level boasts one bedroom, a full bathroom, laundry room with a new stack washer and dryer, kitchen, living and dining area. The bedroom has a queen bed and a 43” smart TV. The kitchen has all new stainless-steel appliances, granite counter tops, a wet island with an undermount sink and granite overhang with four bar stools plus a bonus pantry area with a coffee bar. Beyond the spacious kitchen is a full bathroom with a double glass shower, stylish double vanity with sit on top custom-made ceramic sink bowls and a heated tile floor.
Vaulted ceilings provide ample light and the reclaimed wood wrapped beams lend elegance to the open concept living and dining area. A 65” smart TV is cleverly mounted above the picture windows for river and mountain views but is easy to pull down to a more comfortable eye level for watching the news, sports, and movies after a long day adventuring outside. The wooden dining room table comfortably seats 8 guests.
Up the colonial wooden staircase is a small landing which leads to one queen and one king, master bedroom, each with a 43” smart TV. The southern facing master has large picture window views of the Yellowstone River and a wooden desk for those working remotely with a printer to boot. Both bedrooms share a beautiful jack and jill bathroom with a glass shower, reclaimed wooden walls, a double sink vanity complete with a heated tile floor.
Both floors are heated and cooled with multiple mini splits strategically installed throughout the house. The house is also protected with a Ring™ security system so guests can set a house alarm when leaving for the day if they desire. The house is nestled amongst a string of long-term residents along the river and the area is very safe with little to no crime.
*Please note we do have a full-time single renter who lives in the apartment below the rental. They have a separate entrance that is well below and on the opposite side of the entrance to the rental.*

About the host
Hosted by Tanya Smith
Janet and I are proud to offer our family home for your enjoyment. The property and home have been in our family for fifty years. It was originally purchased by my brother, Dan who was a ranger in Yellowstone for thirty years, was a SAR helicopter base manager for Yellowstone Helitack and a generally caring and loving person. My parents lived next door in the cedar log home downstream for forty years. Throughout these years, family and friends gathered at the homes to visit, sightsee, and simply love the area. It has always been a second home to us and our extended family.
When my brother passed recently, Janet and I felt it was very important that we maintain this property as a sanctuary for our family as were his wishes. Our updates to the home over the ensuing year are personal and yet inviting to all. The location is very special in Paradise Valley and is one that my family have been privileged to enjoy over these many decades. We also feel it is important to share this special place. We welcome you to enjoy it during your stay.
