We really enjoyed our stay in this charming old house. It had so much character, and the unique layout made it a fun place to stay. The house was comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure, which we really appreciated after long days exploring Yellowstone.The location was also very convenient, just a short drive from the North Entrance of Yellowstone National Park. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and were excited to see lots of pronghorns and rabbits nearby. We would happily stay here again!
House was clean amd well maintained. Host was responsive and polite. Some of the light switches didn't work, but there was seperate lighting options which provided adequate lighting. Beds were soft and comfy.
House was neat and tidy. It is a beautiful house at very convenient location. I would definitely recommend to anyone provided some of the things are addressed especially if it is to be rented in summer. It gets really hot in summer at Gardiner (may be it was an exception this year), there were two portable ACs but only one was operational which was not at all enough, other one was working but hose was not fit properly (patched with duct tape) as it kept coming off which should be an easy fix. Otherwise all good. All the best.
Our family of four enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Can’t beat the proximity to Yellowstone’s north entrance and the town had everything we needed. We had one note for families: this is an older home with creaky floors. If everyone has the same sleep schedule, no problem! But if you have young kids that wake easier it may not be for you. From the kitchen/bathroom, you go through the extra bedroom to get to the master and the floor doesn’t let you do that quietly! But beyond that, really a great place to stay!
Perfect location!! Very close to everything!! Everybody had a comfortable place to stay. Our fur baby enjoyed the fenced yard too! Elks just right outside the gate. We would definitely love to stay here again if we get the chance to fo back to YNP! The host responds quickly to any question or concerns! We highly recommend this place!!
Great location for exploring North Yellowstone, only 5 mins from park entrance, and in the evening walking distance to all you need for a lovely evening. The cottage had all we needed for our stay and we all felt very comfortable. Also very quiet at night for a good rest.
The house had everything we needed and was old and rustic. Some gave poor reviews because it is and older house, but we didn't mind at all. The location was great and the town was perfect. If we ever come through here again, we would stay here.
Alex is one of the most communicative hosts I've stayed with. GREAT! the property was clean and had LOTS of space. (especially nice after a NP cabin). Kitchen is well equipped. And nice that people have left salt and spices so you don't need to buy them all.
The cottage in Gardiner is a perfect location for visiting Yellowstone. We appreciated the car port. The town is friendly with lots of shops and good food.
House is very close to Yellowstone North entrance, we saw Elk around town and did some shopping/ eating. House is old, but well kept- some of the rooms were dark with limited lighting. We had 4 adults and 1 child- so 2 adults slept on the pull out couch, there is also one queen bed and 3 single beds. Beds were comfortable.
We loved staying in this VRBO. Travelling with two dogs can be challenging so it was great to have a fenced yard for the dogs!!The house had everything we needed and more!We loved having a fully equipped kitchen so we could prepare sandwiches etc for picnics in the Yellowstone Park! (It beats having to stand in line for burgers and fries in the park) Also great to have laundry facilities !!The house made this trip a breeze for us! Thank you to the wonderful host. We will be back!
The place is an older home. But clean and has a good amount of space. It was perfect for us traveling with our dog. The yard is nice and fenced. It’s not luxury but has necessities. We loved the location, you could walk to everything and the park entrance is just around the corner. The whole town is of an older construction and the roads are not great but hey you are in the wild, Wild West where elk just might be right outside your window. lol!

Fantastic cottage space near Yellowstone Park North Entrance
We loved staying at this little cottage near the entrance of Yellowstone in Gardiner, MA. The rooms were perfect, the kitchen was wonderful, and the washer/dryer was a nice surprise! We enjoyed our coffee in the beautiful front yard with a view of the mountains! We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic little cottage with a view of the mountains from the alley, and an adorably manicured yard
We LOVE the cottage! This is our second time staying in this house when we come to Yellowstone. The house is adorable and homey, and Alex is a great person to rent from. Anytime we come back, we'll definitely stay at Alex's cottage!

Ok stay but not great
Adequate to meet our needs for a short stay. It is an old house with all the quirks that go along. Smelled bad upon arrival but improved with open windows. Bathroom ceilings are very low but didn't bother us we are short but if you are 6ft it wouldn't work well.
Location, location, location! We were right near Yellowstone NP entrance. The Stone house was and older home that looked like it has some updates. Very comfortable, adequate linens and supplies. When we first arrived, we weren't sure. Entering via the alley we were abit taken back, but inside was comfortable. Had a nice fenced in yard for our dog. Host always responded promptly to questions, concerns.
