Big let down

We were so hopeful for this rental but it was so unmaintained. Everything was dirty. Multiple fans were broken. A bed was falling apart right and the host didn't seem to want to try to help the situation. They just asked questions about the broken stuff. Almost like they were uninterested in helping. Great view tho.

Great house, just needs several repairs

When we first got to the house there was a dead rat in the bathroom so the entire downstairs smelled of dead rat. Mouse traps everywhere. Outside yard looked unkept. The separate bathroom downstairs shower needed cleaning. The hot water heater kept cycling off. So we had to constantly reset it or take cold showers. The internet was horrible. Finally got someone out to repair on day 3. And for some reason they don’t keep a trash cart there so they want the renters to take garbage to landfill, which is 3 per trip. But all the neighbors have carts… For the price we paid none of this should have occurred. And the light switches and the control panel in kitchen were a huge pain in the tail! Basement temp was soo hot, and we never could figure out how to fix it! Needless to say it was a disappointment. Owners need to address several issues!

Great stay!

Our stay was wonderful. The area was great with an amazing view. The home was spacious and cozy for our traveling party of 9 people. The game room in the basement worked out great for the kids. The back doors were a bit tricky and we had a hard time keeping them closed (that would be my only 'negative' comment, and it honestly wasn't that big of a deal for us).

Great Location!

We had 15 family members stay here while we visited Yellowstone NP. It was 30 minutes to the park entrance and you went through West Yellowstone which had several eateries. The cabin was spacious and had great views of the Idaho mountains. Well stocked kitchen.

A Beautiful Retreat

We could not have been happier with the cabin and its amenities. There was space for everyone and plenty to keep us occupied when we were in from our adventures during the day. The property manager was just a message away, and they helped a lot with notes in the cabin as well.

Spacious cabin with great views all around

Lots of space of 8 adults in our party. Had wonderful time during our 3 nights stay. Very well equipped and stocked kitchen, spacious living and dining areas. Surroundings exactly as as seen in the pictures. Couple of issues: Outside lights at the front entrance won't light up, which left us in the dark as we park and enter. Many expired items still stocked in the kitchen that are well past the expiry dates need to be thrashed.

Great cabin

Pros: excellent communication with host, very close to Yellowstone, kitchen was well stocked, lots of space for our group of 10. Peaceful and quiet area. Cons: house definitely could be cleaned better. Not sure if the kitchen was done before we arrived as the previous renter’s food was still in the freezer, fridge and microwave were dirty inside, dishes were still in the dishwasher and we found several pots/pans in the cupboards that we needed to wash before using. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the cabin worked well for our group.

No TV upstairs, no hand rail leading into the house. Wasn’t great for elderly parents trying to get in and around. Not enough pillow cases for pillows. Bathroom tiles missing in the shower. Didn’t seem like the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed.

Family vacation

Overall the place was really roomy. I felt like the picture didn't do it justice. It was a really nice cabin. It was well stocked. The kitchen was great! The beds were really comfortable. The game area for the kids was amazing as well. We even used the fire pit in the back and they had plenty of wood for us to use. But the longer we stayed there, the more we noticed that things were broken or not working. Some windows didn't open and they had tape holding them up. Tiles in some of the bathrooms were broken. The doors had a really hard time staying closed. We did enjoy our stay. These things are minor, but overall it was a great place to stay for 5 days.

Bring Mouse Traps

Overall it worked great. We found cat/dog food in the kitchen drawers upon arriving, and crumbs of all sorts stored in the couch cushions. The double doors were a little tricky to deal with, but we figured it out. The biggest complaint is that there were so many mice. Every night they were coming out of the walls and running around the house. We could hear them working away in the walls at night. It made it hard for many of our party to feel comfortable sleeping anywhere in the house because there were mice spotted in every bedroom and bathroom. There were no mouse traps to be found so if you are bothered by the mice then I suggest not staying here OR bring your own set of mouse traps and peanut butter! Otherwise it was an okay place and worked okay for what we needed.

Mouse house

House had a mouse in it. Owner was slow to respond 10 hours, and then told us we could just set traps ourselves. What??? Weeds everywhere 2-3 ft high - even across front of house. Open plumbing in downstairs bathrooms with holes open to wall for mice to come and go. Unfinished bathrooms and closets in both downstairs rooms. Smoke detector no battery in downstairs bedroom. Downstairs bedrooms overhead lights quit working on second night. Upstairs overhead lights in bedrooms won’t come on after 2nd night. Coffee pot in kitchen was filthy. No Kleenex anywhere in house. Outlets - some don’t work (half of an outlet does, other half does not. Wi-Fi does not work - rebooted numerous times and speed never reached past 4 mb/s - totally useless!!! BBQ grill is total grease and caked on food - disgusting. Squeaky doors in bedroom bathroom - wake up spouse with every opening. Only window in bunk room is broken and won’t open - no fresh air in room what so ever. Outside deck chairs and tables filthy and wood table is so chipped in paint no one would ever use it. Weeds around camp fire pit so high it would start a grass fire if you tried to get to it. This house SHOULD NOT BE LISTED ON Vrbo!!!

Yellowstone vaca

Location was amazing! Million dollar views. Beautiful home. Large enough for all of us. Just a few items that need to be addressed by owner. There was literally 5 drops of dish soap, only 1 dishwasher pod. The door on the fridge has a malfunction that makes it diffucult to close. The locks on the doors are extremely confusing. The kig room bathtub drain needs to be looked at, it drains super slow. We werent anle to enjoy the firepit or the horseshoe pits out back because the weeds were too tall. In all fairness. There has been a lot of rain lately. The one thing we thought was unfair was that we were required to take all our trash to the dump. Which is about 15 miles away. And a minium of $3.00. I believe that should be included in our stay. Also needs to be checked. The toilets in both upstairs bathrooms run constantly, you have to make sure to jiggle the handle or it wont stop. On a more positive note. There were plenty of things to do. Basement well stocked with movies, games, and fun things to do. Plenty of bedding and towels. It truly was a beautuful place to stay and I would recommend it.

Christmas vacation

Better than expected. We stayed here over Christmas with our family and close friends. Plenty of room for both families and kids to play in and around the property. We were able to watch the kids ride snowmobiles around the property during the day and play games in the cabin at night. It was -27 degrees the night we arrived and the property owners made sure the house was warm and the fires going. Previous reviews state issues with a few minor things but we found no issues with the cabin. Doors work great you just have know how to use them... I would not hesitate to stay here again and look forward to another vacation next year.

Great Location, Mid-tier Accommodations, Calibrate your Expectations

This cabin is a really great place to stay with a large group of people. The view is spectacular and Yellowstone is only a short drive away. We had a lot of fun during our stay. However there are some major issues we ran into and would not come back unless certain issues were addressed. Safety Smoke detectors with missing batteries or no detector all together. The laundry room has open switch panels with exposed wiring. The door locks are confusing and are all secured by bungee cords. Likely because people can’t figure them out and the wind blows the doors open. When the water pump failed, it filled the laundry room with a delectable burning plastic smell. The bunk-room smelled like damp mildew and the window is broken. Not ideal for people with mold allergies. We got around it by using the many fans provided. Rodents We found a single mouse in the kitchen and downstairs. He was very cute, we named him Washburn after Mount Washburn, I highly doubt other parties would feel the same way about a mouse in the house. There were mouse traps in the Boiler room but they were not set. [4:58 PM] Water We got a call right before arrival about a lack of hot water, only to discover upon arrival that there was hot water? Then suddenly on our first morning there was no water at all. The owners were responsive and sent someone out to fix it multiple times. However we still had water issues until our last full day there. It took a lot of our time and energy to work around that. Lighting The lights in this house are controlled by a very outdated and proprietary computer system, It took us an entire evening just to figure out how to turn everything on and off. It was a bit of a funny challenge that we enjoyed but still a minor inconvenience. Laundry The dryer barely works, we gave up on the idea of laundry after one load. Cleanliness There is dust and cobwebs around the house. Not that big of a deal for us, but it may be for people with higher standards or severe allergies. If you want a clean, seamless, hassle free cabin this is not the place for you. If you are a large party of Goblins like us and just need a place to crash while exploring Yellowstone, this is the perfect place for you. We would love to give this place 4 stars, but upon looking at past reviews a lot of these issues are not being addressed. That on top of the water issues we had, we give this place 3 stars.

Needs some attention!

This is a beautiful log home that needs a good cleaning, furniture replaced and overall attention. The furnace did not work the week we were there. Fortunately we did not have severely cold weather. The owners sent the gas company out 3 days after we checked in and he was able to get us hot water and he also got the gas fireplace working. There was dust, dirt and cobwebs all over. The doors going outside are all tied shut with ropes or bungee cords. The electrical panel and furnace wires were exposed in the basement. A serious hazard if there had been children. We did receive a partial refund from the owners after 2 weeks.

Gorgeous setting, house needs help

The setting of this property is gorgeous and super peaceful. The outside of the home is beautiful too. The kitchen is well stocked The furniture inside is very worn with tearing in fabric and should be replaced. The carpeting has tack strips out on the floor which the kids stepped on and got hurt. The smoke detectors are all pulled out which is concerning. The water for a shower was hot one time the entire week we were there, even the first shower of the day was chilly. Looks like there was some sort of major leak downstairs so the downstairs is still under construction with paint on half of the bathroom. The ping pong table was held together by a piece of duck tape which broke immediately. We were really excited for this property and it’s not cheap so we expected more. We wouldn’t come back, unfortunately.

Why they chose this property

We LOVE Henry's Lake, Island Park and being near the West Entrance to Yellowstone National Park. We are close to the highway but definitely far enough away to only hear the wind in the trees, hawks and eagles flying over and an occasional sighting of Moose and antelope in our front and back yard.

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique with 3 Large ensuites and a 4th bunk bedroome and it sleeps 16 in those rooms and an additional 2 on a new pullout couch in the main floor living area.
We have a BIG WONDERFUL view of the Sunset off the back deck during the summer months with only a 30 minute drive into West Yellowstone.
