About this property

Horse Ranch on the Yellowstone River. Close to Gardiner and Yellowstone Park.

If you are looking for a perfect base camp to explore Yellowstone National Park and Montana, you've found it! Our guest house is situated on the banks of the Yellowstone River, just 17 miles north of Yellowstone National Park. It is a free standing structure which sleeps 4 comfortably. Stay with us and you'll have easy access to the river, the national park, and the rest of the "Big Sky" state of Montana.

*Until the Carbella Bridge is replaced, the home is an extra 4 miles north of Gardiner.

Our family raises horses and maintains pasture and grazing for clients. In the summer, you'll witness the everyday chores of a working ranch--irrigating, haying, fencing, etc. In other seasons, breeding and training horses take up good parts of the day. While you enjoy the peace and quiet of this agrarian setting, rest assured that it's a short ride to the amenities of town. We think it's the best of both worlds.

National parks, you may know, are not pet-friendly. We offer a variety of kenneling choices for dogs, and corrals or stalls for horses. Guests are free to keep their pets in the guest house, if they wish.

Children especially, but adults as well, are encouraged to enjoy our cats and dogs, collect fresh eggs from the chicken coop, watch as horses are trained in the round pen or as ferriers tack shoes on their hooves. It's a safe, fascinating environment, and a welcomed reprieve from the rigors of traveling.

We're happy to help you plan your days, in and around the Yellowstone ecosystem. Hopefully, you'll return home with an idea of what life is like on a ranch, as well as many memories of Yellowstone Park and "Big Sky" country.

THE SPACE
The guest house is clean, comfortable, and has all the basic amenities. The queen master is downstairs with a closet, dresser, and fan. The full bathroom with a stand up shower, vanity, separate toilet room is on the main floor.

The kitchen and living room complete the ground floor. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full size refrigerator, freezer, coffee maker, basic spices, oven, range, microwave, toaster, baking and cooking equipment, cutlery, glasses, bowls, plates, and more.

A view of the Yellowstone River consumes the east facing window of the living room. Two rocking chairs, a sofa, small ottoman and chest make a cozy seating area. Satellite TV programming and a flat screen TV make winding down at the end of the day easy.

Steep stairs lead to the loft with two twin beds, a small seating area, closet and fan.

The side room in the hallway has a washer and dryer for guest use as well as all veterinarian supplies for livestock.

The house shares a front space with horse tackle and feed. We provide a big crate for your dog should you ever leave them at the house to go into the Park or out to dinner.

*Please note it will take 40 minute to get to Gardiner, the northern entrance of Yellowstone Park, until the Carbella Bridge is replaced.*

Do not, I repeat, do not pass this place by....
This home is an amazing place. One cannot find a better, more relaxing spot in the heart of Paradise Valley. This is a true Montana/Yellowstone experience. Close to it all....while also being far away from the madding crowd. Very accommodating hosts, a very charming horse ranch, and wildlife within minutes of the place, the likes of which are rarely seen inside the park. Can't say enough great things about our experience here.

Highlight of our road trip
We stayed three nights here, and it was the best part of our road trip through Idaho and Montana. The hosts were so gracious and helped guide our activities. The kids enjoyed helping with farm chores, playing with the dogs, and spotting wildlife. The cabin was perfect and just as described. We are already trying to find a time we can return and stay longer. Thanks so much!

“WOW”
Couldn’t have ask for a better stay, Vern & Laura were a wealth of information about the area. The tip on bear watching and the wildlife in the area was a reason our trip was so memorable. Thank you for sharing your home and ranch with us. Would come back a million times. 😎🇺🇸
