About this property

Pelican Point | Private Beach, Dock & Views | 35 mins to YNP

Pelican Point is a 7,600-sq-ft estate on the lake, framed by 150 feet of private beach, a large private dock, and endless water views. Designed for 12 guests within a gated enclave, with six king master suites featuring ensuite bathrooms and views, it offers rare privacy and a setting of quiet grandeur. Days begin with coffee above still waters, unfold in Yellowstone’s wild beauty just 35 minutes away, and return to alpenglow on the lake, firelight on the lawn, and a sky heavy with stars.

A Private Lakeside Retreat Minutes from Yellowstone

Welcome to Pelican Point, a 7,600 sq/ft luxury estate set on 1.7 acres of manicured grounds along the shores of lake. A place unlike any other, where each room opens to sweeping views of the water. Tucked within an exclusive gated community, this retreat was designed for refined travelers—whether you’re planning an executive retreat, a family escape, or a once-in-a-lifetime Yellowstone adventure.

With 150 feet of private beach frontage, a sprawling lawn, and a private dock, every moment here feels like a postcard. Morning coffee tastes better on the deck overlooking the water, afternoons invite swimming, boating, or world-class fly fishing nearby, and evenings end with s’mores around the firepit under a blanket of stars.

The Lodge

7,600 sq/ft of luxury living with soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and seamless indoor–outdoor flow to the lake. This is a rare and remarkable retreat, with water views from every room in the lodge.

Six true king master suites—each with its own comfortable king bed, separate area, view, and private en-suite bath—so every guest enjoys a personal retreat.

Four fireplaces throughout the home for year-round ambiance.

Chef’s kitchen with new high-end appliances and generous prep space; both formal and casual dining.

Multiple living rooms designed for conversation, movies, or quiet reading with the water in view.

New fiber-optic internet for fast, reliable connectivity—ideal for remote work or streaming.

Occupancy: Limited to 12 guests per county permit and septic capacity.
In extenuating situations, up to 2 additional guests (max) may be considered case-by-case with prior written approval.


The Setting
• Private dock + beach for boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding
• Lush lawns and landscaped grounds ideal for barbecues, games, and lounging in the sun
• Peaceful gated community with low-density surroundings for the ultimate sense of seclusion

Seasonal Highlights

Spring Awakening (May 15 – June 15):

Yellowstone and Island Park emerge from winter’s rest with roaring waterfalls, lush greenery, and wildlife at their most active. Bison calves, elk, and moose are often spotted, and the rivers come alive with trout fishing. Days are cool and crisp—perfect for hiking uncrowded trails or cozy evenings by the fire after exploring the park.

High Summer (June 15 – Aug 15)

This is peak season at Pelican Point. Long, sunny days invite swimming, tubing, and boating right from your private dock. Evenings stretch late into the night with fiery sunsets and stargazing by the firepit. July 4th is unforgettable here—fireworks sparkle over the water and can be enjoyed from the deck, lawn, or dock. Fishing is excellent, and a drive up Sawtelle Peak reveals breathtaking panoramic views of the entire region.

Golden Serenity (Aug 15 – Sept 15)

As summer crowds fade, Pelican Point transforms into a sanctuary of calm. The lake grows still, making it ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, and quiet mornings on the dock. School is back in session, so Yellowstone’s trails and boardwalks become peaceful again. The air is crisp, sunsets grow richer, and the first hints of autumn colors begin to spread through the mountains. It’s an especially romantic season for couples seeking tranquility.

Autumn Splendor (Sept 15 – Oct 15)

This is Yellowstone at its most dramatic—elk bugle through the meadows, wildlife prepares for winter, and the mountains ignite with brilliant fall foliage. Crowds have disappeared, making this the perfect time for photographers, nature lovers, and travelers seeking solitude. Crisp days give way to cool evenings, ideal for fireside gatherings and intimate dinners after days spent exploring.

Your Gateway to Adventure:
• Yellowstone National Park: Just a 35-minute scenic drive to the West Entrance
• World-renowned fly fishing: Henry’s Fork, Henry’s Lake, and Box Canyon all minutes away
• Big Springs & Mesa Falls: Iconic Idaho landmarks nearby
• Horseback riding, hiking, and family adventures: All within easy reach

Why You`ll Love Pelican Point:

Guests often say photos can’t capture the feeling of Pelican Point. Every room in the lodge opens to sweeping water views, a reminder that this is no ordinary retreat. With six private king suites, four fireplaces, and the stillness of the reservoir just outside, the lodge feels both vast and intimate. It’s a rare place—one that lingers long after you’ve gone.

Stephen`s Experience: This place was everything I hoped it was and more. So many things to do and Bob was always responsive to any questions we had about local places to experience. My two daughters, granddaughter, wife, mom, and son-in-law all stayed here. We hiked in Yellowstone park, rented side-by-sides 4-wheelers in the forest, played countless games of pool and ping pong in the game room, had a nice boat dock so we could bring our boat for surfing, wakeboarding, and beautiful morning boat rides to the restaurant on the other side of the lake. Went fishing at Henry`s lake just up the road. So many memories that we will never forget in a place where I already miss having morning coffee on the patio enjoying the view.

Kendal`s Experience: This property is stunning! The home is decorated in upscale mountain decor. It is spacious, luxurious and equipped with everything you could need.
The outside was absolutely beautiful. A deck, patio, lawn, fire pit, grill private beach and boat dock in a mountainous surrounding. The outside amenities were probably the best part for us. A sunset boat ride and surfing `on glass` with a fiery sunset and full moon rising...amazing! Couldn`t be more beautiful!! This property is all you could want. Don`t miss the experience!

Kaylie`s Experience: This is THE place to stay if you plan on this area. Ideal location, great amenities, and well taken care of home. Love being on the lake, quiet mornings, fire pit in the evening, and beautiful view of the stars at night. Was just what we were looking for on our trip. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Kent`s Experience: This home was everything we expected and more! Spotless, huge open areas, the backyard is to die for, the views, and all the little details. Nothing goes unnoticed, every little detail is in place and accessible. We loved the gathering areas on every floor! The bedrooms and bathrooms are all equivalent, even the laundry room was luxury. Would highly recommend, you won`t be disappointed. Close to yellowstone, would highly recommend High Mountain Adventures right down the street, we drove miles and miles up and down mountains on Side by Sides, whole trip was amazing and this house was our favorite part! Thanks Again!

Wade`s Experience: We had a total blast here. We can`t imagine staying at a better place. The beach was amazing, the house was big and spacious. This was definitely a trip to remember and the whole family loved it.

For any 5 night reservation or longer, enjoy one free 60 minute in-house massage (message for availability).
