New bathroom tiles, and a new breakfast bar in the dining room, seats 5 people on stools, and 6 at the table and chairs.We have a fenced back yard but that does not stop the animals from stopping by to visit. We have a deck and almost every window gives you a view of the rocky mountains.

Newly paved parking lot in 2021.

Family vacation with young adults

The house was cozy but allowed us room to spread out. Everything was in working order, clean, and well kept. We were within walking distance to everything in Gardiner. Highly enjoyable stay.

Excellent location

Location was excellent for day trips into Yellowstone being so close to the entrance. Plenty of places to walk just down the street for food, shopping, or just to visit the many shops. We did the white water rafting trip and it was also very close. Would stay again and would recommend. Host is very responsive with any questions you may have.

A stones throw to the park entrance! Perfect little getaway for our family. The home is cozy and comfortable with fun decor from the past! The beds are super comfortable and the wood burning fire place was the cherry on top! Easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, and shops.

Family Vacation in Yellowstone

This property was the perfect way for us to spend several days in Yellowstone. It was so fantastic to be able to spend days in the park and still have a "home" to come to and spend time as a family cooking meals and playing game in the evening. The property was clean and well kept and had everything we needed and then some! Terry was fantastic about communicating whenever I had questions before arriving as well as making sure we knew how to access the property when we arrived. Would absolutely recommend this place for a family looking for a cozy home while exploring the park!

Yellowstone Trip

This house was perfect for our Yellowstone trip. The location right outside the Northwest entrance made going into the park each day so easy. In addition, many of the restaurants and shops are walking distance from the house too. The house was well stocked with amenities.

Great house. Perfect for visting Yellowstone.

We loved our stay. The house is so close to the North Entrance of Yellowstone. Everything was as the listing said. Beds were comfortable. The fenced in yard was nice. Love the views of the mountains out the windows and from the yard. We has Elk right in the yard daily which was so neat. We definitely recommend this house. Was perfect for our family.

Yellowstone Vacation

Great location and property and was well equipped. Everything worked well. Bed was a little soft for us but we’re seniors so we’re used to a firmer bed. Terry was great and answered all our questions. We had a wonderful time visiting our favorite National Park.

Convenient and comfortable

Clean and comfortable, allows pets and has a fenced yard. An excellent location for exploring Yellowstone National park. Furnishings are interesting, with books and knickknacks. It is in town, across the street from an eatery that can be a little noisy, but didn’t bother us. Elk wander around the town, and one got into the fenced yard, which was startling, but it did eventually leave. The house was just what we needed for two couples and two dogs.

Great location but creaky

The location is great for Yellowstone. The area is close to restaurants and shops. You are expected to wash and dry the towels before you leave which I wish was explained prior to booking. We didn’t mind doing but wished it was stated upfront. The house floors creak and the doors creak and need to be slammed to shut which makes it hard to move about without waking others. The host communication was great and everything was clean. Lots of available towels.

Amazing House! Great Loacartion.

The house is amazing and very well stocked. Terry had coolers and ice packs. The kitchen was stocked with knives and pots. It’s got a great location for visiting Yellowstone. The burger place across the street is top notch, and the grocery is within walking distance. There are also neighborhood mule deer that we saw each morning. The only issue is that the mattresses need replaced in one of the rooms. They are really worn out.

A quick 10 minute drive from Yellowstone north entrance

We had a comfortable stay at this quaint little home. While one bathroom for 8 people was a bit of a struggle, the proximity to the north entrance of Yellowstone made it worth it! Less than a ten minute drive to the park. The home is a quick 3 minute walk to local restaurants and the town grocery (which was well stocked). The house itself is small, but well stocked with all of the essentials. Keep in mind there is no dishwasher, but we had plenty of hands to help so it was no problem. Keep an eye out for local wildlife in the front or back yard. We had visits from both elk and mule deer! All in a great stay in a perfect location.

Convenient, clean & comfortable

We loved how close the place was and it was big enough to accommodate all 8 of us comfortably. My only critiques of the place would be: 1) The wifi was very unreliable and spotty. 2) The bbq grill would not stay lit. 3)We paid a large cleaning fee ($120), but that apparently did not include doing laundry. We had to spend 3 hours on our last day washing all the sheets and towels per the owner's request. We have stayed at several VRBOs and have never been asked to do the laundry. We would still stay here again, but the next time we would take all the laundry to a laundry mat and go to breakfast!

About the host

Hosted by Terry Wilks

Host profile image
I was the manager of the westernaire motel & trailer park in Gardiner mt. for 9 years now and my husband and I decided to invest more then just time into the community. this is are investment we chose, we lived and worked at the motel 1/2 block from the property. and are working at upgrading this investment regularly.Now we just work on the property.

Why they chose this property

my husband retired from the military & police work and wanted to spend his retirement here so we chose something we know and like to invest in are retirement. The Yellowstone area has so much to offer for so many different interests.

What makes this property unique

This unique property and central location are a great asset to us and the folks that stay with us. It has been kept up, and with my husbands keen eye upgraded, & we will continue to make the most of upgrades to provide a superior visit for our customers. It is much more beautiful then the pictures.
