About this condo rental
Nestled in Pray, this charming condo for $177 per night is a great option for your next break. Paradise Valley Cottage is your comfortable home away from home set amongst giant willows and pine trees with a view of the Rocky Mountains. The cabin is a stand alone building on our ranch with a very private entrance. The cabin is centrally located between Livingston and Yellowstone National Park with easy access to all that Paradise Valley has to offer. Step onto the wood deck and flagstone patio to enjoy the magnificent mountain views and barbecue your favorite meal. Walk along Eight Mile Creek to our private pond and enjoy the music of the water flowing while gazing up at Emigrant Peak. Five miles from the cottage is Chico Hot Springs. After a day of hiking or skiing this is the place to be to sooth your tired muscles and relax. Here you can catch a meal at the grill or make reservations for a more elegant dinner in the dining room. Later, you can take in a live band and dance the night away. On the way to Chico Hot Springs there is a general store with everything you can imagine and across the street is a post office, bank, deli, bakery and the Old Saloon where you can enjoy a fantastic breakfast, burger or your favorite beverage. The biggest attraction is just 35 miles south - Yellowstone National Park. Besides the famous Old Faithful Geyser, you will see wildlife - bison, elk, bear, big horn sheep, and if you're really lucky, wolf. The Park has so many wonderful sights that one day is never enough. If you are able, hike some of the back trails to really experience the peaceful beauty and in the winter, take a snow coach tour, snowmobile, or cross-country ski to enjoy the silence and pristine beauty. For all the fishermen out there, Yellowstone River is easily accessed by our private site, one-half mile from the cottage. Set your drift boat in the river or wade in to catch rainbow and brown trout. Whether you are fly fishing or bait fishing, Yellowstone River will not disappoint. In the summer, if you're look for a boating experience or want to sunbath at the beach of a lake, Daily Lake is 15 minutes away and swimming, sailing, fishing and windsurfing are some of the popular activities found on this lake. In the town of Livingston, among all the necessities (grocery store, pharmacies) you will find museums, art galleries, a farmer's market on Wednesdays throughout the summer, restaurants and boutique shops. There is also an 18-hole golf course and Sacajawea Park which hosts the annual music summer fest in July. Wintertime brings to Livingston live plays at the Blue Slipper and Firehouse, seasonal events such as the Christmas Stroll, bazaar and New Years Dance at the Depot.

A cozy little peaceful place close to a Yellowstone entrance. It is a beautiful area. The owners leave you alone to enjoy our time. The thermostat controlled fireplace as well as a stand alone A/C unit keeps the place comfortable. My recommendations: the bed needs replaced. If someone rolls over in bed it is loud enough to disturb everyone, also those with physical issues have a difficult time getting up and down due to the height of the bed. Most things are thoughtfully provided though they were out of laundry detergent, we don't all bat 1000% all the time. I realize this isn't the only place off the access road but it would be nice if the owners would get together and have the road maintained, it is awful. The ceiling fan needed cleaning. I'd give it a 4.5 if I could. I do recommend it.

We very much enjoyed our stay on the "ranch" in Paradise Valley. Although out in the country, it was Montana "near" to the North entrance to Yellowstone National Park which we visited twice during our 3 night stay.
The property had all the necessary equipment for cooking and although it was technically a "studio" it was a large open space/room with a large bathroom.
We would recommend staying here.

My husband, my adult daughter and myself stayed here for 2 nights. It is close enough to the Yellowstone National Park and the Yellowstone Hot Springs, so the location was perfect for us. We didn't have any interactions with the owners. We waved one morning when she was feeding the horses, but maybe she didn't see us. The size was good for our needs, as we were not there much. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The only complaint we had is, when we would arrive or venture outside, there were a lot of barking dogs, which sounded like a kennel. This kind of took away from the peacefulness for us. This may not bother some people, but was not enjoyable for us. Just not our cup of tea.

We took day trips leave in the morning and coming back at night to fix dinner, relax and sleep. It’s a great place to stay with out loads of people. We had an issue with the shower and Chris popped over instantly to fix it. It’s a close stay for Yellowstone and Chico Hot Springs.

We loved our stay here!!!! It is so quiet and peaceful. It was the perfect home base for us while we explored numerous hiking trails.
I was especially appreciative of all the cottage was stocked with. Many places throw anything left but it was nice to find bear spray, bug spray, sunscreen, toiletry items.
Coffee outside in the mornings with the horses and the view was the absolute best while we took a week to unwind from busy and hectic lives.
((Only advice is the road going to the cottage is rough, which has nothing to do with the owners. We were very thankful for our Jeep. Just need to know it’s a bumpy and rough 3/4 mile to the cottage, so not much, but it’s slow going and would be rough in a small car.))
We hope to return sometime soon.

The beauty of the scenery is undescribable. You look out the patio window and see the mountains in the distance and the horse and pony 20 feet away behind the corral. The cottage has everything anybody could ever need. We cooked every breakfast and dinner there on our four days stay, the host are prompt to answer any question and a right around the corner We hope to go back there next year

Peaceful slice of paradise is a perfect name for this place. It was clean well stocked with most anything you would need to cook, wash clothes, plenty of linens and the bathroom had soap and shampoo in case you forget. We had a great stay and would recommend a Peaceful slice of paradise.

This is a very clean, comfortable and spacious studio suite. It is literally beside the horse corral so you can watch the horses out all of the windows. No dishwasher but who minds washing dishes with beautiful mountain views. The location is completely quiet. The only thing keeping us from giving this excellent across the board is the road in from the highway. It is the bumpiest roughest road we have ever driven on!

Well appointed studio with beautiful views. Enjoyed waking up to see the sun rising over the mountains and horses on the property. Our daughter loved the animals and the location was perfect for our stay visiting friends in the area. Perfectly clean and helpful hosts. Our friends who live in the area plan to recommend this spot to their future visitors!

My wife and I enjoyed the stay. Cottage was very well equipped. Location was great. Too bad the North entrance to Yellowstone was closed, had a 2 1/2 hour detour to the West. But the drive there was beautiful. We’ll be back sometime to see what we missed. Thanks again!

My boyfriend and I loved our stay here. The cabin was perfect for what we needed and had plenty of cooking supplies for dinner at home on the last night! The dirt road out was a little rough, but it probably wouldn’t have been too bad if the rental hadn’t been a tiny Mini Cooper. Otherwise, everything was as described. The property was beautiful and bed was comfortable!

This was a lovely little place, perfect for myself and my two kids. It was very clean and cozy, with all the amenities. And horses right outside the front door! Chris was kind and friendly, but very respectful of our privacy as well. Ideal location - so close to Chico, Emigrant, great hiking and fishing locations. We had a wonderful stay!

Quick Get Away
This was such a lovely little place to get away to for my husband and I! It had a sweet quiet ambiance that was perfect for relaxing and not being rushed to go anywhere or pressured to do to much.
The mapping on the VBRO site is a bit off of it location. It's closer to Emigrant than Pray. It is a beautiful and very convenient location!

Truly a slice of paradise!
We stayed the end of June 2022 and it was amazing! Chris and Julie were so welcoming and friendly, and the location of the cottage is perfect. We were nervous as the flooding had happened the week prior to our trip, but the surrounding areas/restaurants/hiking/etc was great! Highly recommend!!
