About the host

Hosted by Theresa Allred

Host profile image
We celebrated our 42nd wedding anniversary in the summer of 2025 and have enjoyed the beauty of nature since before we married. When our children were young, our first real family vacation (that wasn’t driving to and from school to visit our parents) was to Yellowstone National Park. We filled every possible moment with ranger tours, walks to tourist favorites, and drives from one end of the park to the other. We didn’t want to miss anything because we didn’t know if we would have an opportunity to return. We loved Yellowstone so much that we returned regularly. We loved knowing we could return over and over again; we could see the same THINGS, but they are constantly changing. We have never tired of Yellowstone National Park, and there is still SO much we have never seen. We have dreamed of having a home near the park where we could gather as a family at the end of the day and continue making memories. Gibbon Meadows IS that dream. We hope your family will also make wonderful memories here and you will want to return year after year.

Why they chose this property

Gibbon Meadows is our family home away from home. We are a small family business. We hope you love our home as much as we do.
