This cabin is located only 10 miles (10-15 minutes) from the West Entrance of Yellowstone National Park and is in the closest subdivision to the border of Montana and West Yellowstone. Since short-term rentals are restricted in West Yellowstone this is one of the closest places to the West Entrance of Yellowstone that you can rent on VRBO! Being so close to the entrance of the park means you will spend less time driving to and from the park and more time exploring all the amazing sights and attractions Yellowstone has to offer.

Our cabin is professionally cleaned after each stay. Our cleaning service is all inclusive and will take care of garbage removal and all cleaning. Unlike other rentals we will NOT be asking you to take your garbage to the landfill, and we will NOT have a list of cleaning tasks for you to do before check-out. Our main goal is for you to have all the time to enjoy your vacation and we want your check-in and check-out to be easy and hassle free!

Snowmobiling:
Winter-time is the perfect time to rent snowmobiles! We provide them at a discounted rate on our website.

The discount code will be sent to you once the booking is confirmed. Please make your booking and you can pick up the snowmobiles at our central location near all of the trails.

ATV/UTV Tours:
We also provide ATV/UTV tours. Since you are staying in our Cabin, you can book with us directly at a price of $150 per person. Just send a quick message and we can set it up.

The closest ski resort is Big Sky Resort in Montana, just about an hour’s drive from the cabin. Many guests also enjoy cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right here in Island Park or at Harriman State Park, which offers beautiful, groomed trails in a peaceful setting. We’re also about 2 hours from Jackson Hole and Grand Targhee — giving you access to three of the best ski resorts in the country, all offering world-class terrain and stunning mountain views.

We are highly rated hosts who are committed to providing our guests with best possible experience. This cabin is the result of over a year of hard work and we look forward to sharing it with you! Come enjoy your vacation at our home away from home!

Many houses don’t live up to the pictures. But not this place!! Pictures do not do it justice. The location couldn’t be more perfect and the home is immaculate and beautiful. The host is top notch and the scenery is out of a movie. We did a 65 mile snowmobile tour through Yellowstone and it was beautiful. You are only a few miles from West Yellowstone but just away enough to feel the experience of your own mountain cabin. Very well equipped kitchen Winter here is my favorite. All in all, and I don’t say this lightly, this is the Highest grade I would ever give for any vacation home I have ever stayed in 5 stars are not enough From home to host the experience has been nothing but first class! Highly recommend!

Overall amazing property, we had a great experience and recommend this place to anybody. The beds were comfortable, the layout and decor were great. The place is VERY well stocked with everthing you need for a comfortable stay. Both the gas grill and fire place have gas lines connected directly to them, so no need to worry about propane running out. The sauna, hot tub and massage chair are great features that we enjoyed using. The owner was amazing at communicating and gave us tons of recommendations for places to eat and places to visit in yellowstone. The proximity to west Yellowstone and the entrance is fantastic.

We had a fantastic stay - Chris was so quick and responsive to questions and provided terrific suggestions for our vacation. There's also a binder in the house that provides excellent highlights. The kitchen is well equipped (including a pizza oven) & the house provides plenty of space for families/groups to gather. The drive to Yellowstone is easy and passes quickly. It's all highway until you reach West Yellowstone. We found the beds downstairs to be softer than we prefer (accustomed to Tempur-pedic). The taxidermy is a little over the top for me, but I'm still giving the house & our visit 5-stars.

EXECEPTIONAL Yellowstone Family Adventure

We would book this exceptional home again in a second! There were seven grown adults and everyone had their own space lots of bathrooms, wonderful hot tub and porch with a propane fireplace that we crowded around every night! The kitchen didn’t lack for anything and we prepared meals every day. Very comfortable beds and pillows, fluffy towels, the washer and dryer were an added benefit. Chris, the owner communicated wonderfully! It took us 12 minutes every day to get to the West Yellowstone gate and the grocery store in town had everything we needed! The prices are much better in West Yellowstone than the island Park FYI. Do yourself a favor and Book this amazing Home! -The Thompson Family

"Unforgettable Family Adventure in the Perfect Location

Thank you for sharing your wonderful home! Our family of 5 truly enjoyed the space and location. We spent 4 days in Jackson at the rustic lodge prior to our arrival where we explored the town, Grand Tetons and went horse back riding. This home the perfect spot to explore Yellowstone and surrounding area. Our favorite day here was on our ATV tour with the home owner Chris. He took us to the very top of the mountain where we enjoyed majestic views. What a special vacation filled with wonderful memories. Thank you!!

Amazing VRBO in Island Park

This is as nice a VRBO as you can ever hope for! The house was magnificent, with high end cabinetry, counters etc. It was a kitchen you would like to have in your own house. Huge family room great family spaces throughout, incredible porch and deck area. I could go on, but you get the idea. It was a great location for us as we were exploring West Yellowstone. Chris was a pleasure to deal with; easy to communicate with and he gave us very helpful suggestions. I only with we had scheduled to stay longer!

Island Park Oasis

From the moment we walked in the door we were certain this home was going to be an amazing place to return each evening. From long drives through the park, to horseback riding in a storm (wife and kids loved it!), to the return of our many adventures, this home was a welcome oasis. Plenty of comfy beds, splendid showers, well appointed kitchen, room to relax and of course the hot tub. Beautiful, clean and relaxing. We had the best time. Thank you, Chris and Sonia.

Exceptional Yellowstone Lodging

We had 5 adults and 2 children that stayed for a week. We travel quite a bit as a family and have rented VRBO's, we found this one to be the best we have every rented. The personal touches were great. The setting was beautiful. There were spices, condiments and paper products for us to start with. The towels weren't ordinary cleaning service towels. Our whole family agreed it was by far the best we had ever rented.
