Quiet Cabin With a Creek Nearby - Wildlife and Mountain Views

Your Yellowstone Basecamp for Wildlife, Adventure, and Wide-Open Montana Beauty

If your perfect Montana getaway means waking up surrounded by mountains, watching wildlife wander through the landscape, and spending your days exploring creeks, trails and Yellowstone's wilderness, this cabin is for you. This is a peaceful, nature-immersed retreat where you can step outside and instantly feel connected to the land. Guests regularly spot deer, fox, birds, and other wildlife right from the property. The quiet, scenic surroundings make it easy to slow down and take it all in.

Whether you're here to hike, fish, photograph wildlife, explore Yellowstone, or simply breathe in the fresh mountain air, this cabin offers the perfect base camp. Come back after a day of adventure to a warm, cozy space where you can relax, refuel, and enjoy the calm of Montana evenings. It's a comfortable, private place to unwind, recharge, and truly experience the beauty of the outdoors.

This 1,040 square ft log cabin, built in 2019, is located in the old mining town of Jardine, just 5.5 miles up a county maintained dirt road from Gardiner, Montana - and worth all fifteen minutes of the drive to get here. Cabin 2, along with our other three cabins, sits on just over 12 acres of private property that borders national forest land. You'll be hard pressed to find a more comfortable, cozy space than this one.

The old Jardine mine site is part of the beautiful and unique mountain views you'll see while you sip your morning coffee or tea from the back patio, as well as being able to see and hear Bear Creek! Soak in the spring flowers and Montana sunsets over the ridge out front. If you prefer your walks without the crowds of Yellowstone, there are also great hiking trails just a short walk from the front door. We'll leave you a can of bear spray to borrow while you're out exploring the area.
