We love to stay here, its close to west Yellowstone, dog friendly, affordable and quiet.
Very easy to self check in and out outside of season with emailed instructions and a text line. This made us getting into a place for the night super convenient with our dog, and it had everything we could've needed a couple night stay with cute rooms!
Even though you don’t get to meet anyone in person, the directions and information are perfect. Lovely clean room , good amenities . Anglers lodge across the road for food was amazing.
Absolutely loved that place! Close enough to Yellowstone National Park to see the park, and far enough away that we could get out of the crowds of the town of West Yellowstone. Gave us the feeling of cabin style home without being too far from a gas station and food. It was GREAT!
