Grizzly Den - Above the River! Yellowstone mountain views and Air Conditioning!
About this house rental
Located in Gardiner, this attractive house for R 5,418 per night is a great option for your next break. The Grizzly Den is an amazing place to call home during your visit to Montana. Come play in Yellowstone and the Gardiner Basin-Paradise Valley! Rafting, horseback riding, hot springs, fishing, hiking, dining, cross county skiing, wildlife viewing, and of course Yellowstone Park is all accessible within minutes. We will help you plan a great trip! This Air Conditioned 2 bedroom home has two additional separate loft areas for adding sleeping. We are located above the banks of the Yellowstone River and less than a mile from the north entrance to Yellowstone. We are in the heart of Gardiner, MT making it an easy evening stroll to local dining and shopping; or stay back and enjoy grilling on the deck over looking the river. The house has 18 windows facing south into the park highlighting the stunning views of 11,000 ft Electric Peak. You can literally look out the windows, or off the deck and see: elk, antelope, deer, and occasionally bears and wolves roaming the hillsides of Yellowstone. Bring your binoculars! We are located about an hour from the Bozeman Airport.

Very nice property. Didn't realize the tightness of the staircase; several adults didn't want to stay upstairs because of it (more room for me!).

The location of this home was ideal, right in the middle of Gardiner and less than 5 minutes from the park entrance! The house is quirky and kitchy, but clean and has most everything you could ask for available. Our one big complaint is that the beds are all lacking. The 2 queen sized beds are raised up so high that they are literally difficult to get into. For my 80 year old parents it was bordering on dangerous. The upstairs queen bed desperately needs to be replaced as it has a valley in the middle and is impossible for 2 adults to sleep in together. If the only other people staying at this place are children then the other beds are fine, but they are either mattresses on the floor or very small twin beds. All in all it is a cute place, but if you are looking for quality sleep this may not be the ideal accommodation for you.

Nice place to stay. The only reason I gave 4 stars on the neighborhood is because the parking is pretty tight especially if you have multiple vehicles. It's clean and you have a nice view of the river and mountains.

This beautiful home in Gardiner, MT was perfect for our ladies hiking vacation! We enjoyed the views of the river and the elk! The location is perfect. The size and the cost for our 3 nights was unbeatable! Thank you so much for helping to make our trip amazing. :)

There wasn't any air conditioning. The swamp cooler filters were dirty, so they weren't working. They didn't provide trash bags. The owner wasn't very nice about my concerns. We wouldn't recommend this place to anyone if it is during hot months.

Grizzly Den is a nice place to stay!
VRBO hidden fees are a bummer.
Paid much more than was listed online.
Don't mind paying for things, just tough to stomach the extras and fees after things have been booked up and payments have started.
Why can't all of these things be listed up front?

We had a great trip. Location was conveniently located near the north entrance to the park. Check in and check out process was very easy. The owner replies very promptly if you have any questions. The house was very cute and perfect for a family. The only small challenge was parking. Parking was very tight and we had a large SUV. Would absolutely stay again.

Great cabin and location to restraints, shopping, and excursions. It is so close to Yellowstone Park’s north Entrance! The teens enjoyed a private room upstairs and a loft area to hang out in. Parking was a bit tight and living area is small and not much room to sit—but worked ok for us. Overall very accommodating and perfect for our family of 5! Could have taken another family with us.

A few glitches, but an overall winner for our group of six, aged 7-77

There is NO CAR WASH ... its a garage now. We had a hard time finding this rental. Its not a stand alone, there are several units. Nice home ... lots of sleeping options but prop manager wasnt responsive when needed.

Great location to North Yellowstone! Host was great at responding to us before and during our stay! Neat town! We went during off season the week before everything opens back up but loved that we timed it this way as it was not filled with tourists and avoided all crowds! Highly recommend!

This was just what we needed for a home base as we explored Yellowstone. The most comfortable beds.

Very convenient! Parking is tight but manageable. Super clean. One word of advice, only one bedroom on main floor all other beds up a very narrow but super cute spiral staircase. I would rent this place again.

Grizzly Den was everything we wanted and needed. Close to the north gate of Yellowstone. Every modern convenience you’d need. More than ample for our family of four adults to sleep comfortably. They even had a Christmas Tree set up for us(we arrived on Christmas Day do that was a nice feeling). Excellent communication too. If we come to Gardiner again, we hope to stay here.

This was a perfect family getaway! The house is beautiful, perfect space for our family of 5. The kitchen has everything you need. We had coffee every morning on the deck overlooking the Yellowstone River. The upstairs space was perfect for our 3 teenage boys. My 14 year LOVED sleeping in the high loft. The proximity to e everything was amazing. We walked to the grocery store, Yellowstone entrance, and whitewater rafting! Having a laundry room available was amazing, we went home with clean clothes!! We would definitely stay here again!

Nice home with a great view
Home sits above the Yellowstone river and has a great view of the river as well as the area around Yellowstone park. Wildlife is plentiful throughout the area. We saw elk, deer, buffalo, and river otters. The north entrance to the park was closed due to flooding so we were limited to Gardiner but it has a charm of it's own. Overall we had a great time.

Area is beautiful. Surrounding area is friendly and safe. Checking in and out was very easy. Just as in previous reviews, stairwell is narrow, therefore not great for elderly or handicapped, however it was perfect for us. My elderly father took the downstairs bedroom, therefore no issues. The patio view was gorgeous, more than expected. The sound of the rushing Yellowstone River was soothing.

We really enjoyed our stay in Gardiner. It's a quiet little town. The market being walking distance from the property was absolutely amazing. Our stay was great and we would stay here again.

Great place that sleeps far more people than I ever expected and each person had privacy too. We even had an open single bed. Cozy place with lovely views and just minutes from Yellowstone North Entrance. We loved the Grizzley Den.

This was a fantastic stay. I highly recommend it. The only things to note was that we couldn't find the sheets for the pullout bed, which ended up not being an issue, and the shower downstairs is hot when it says cold and vice versa. I would 100% stay here again.

We had a group of 8 adults and were all able to fit comfortably. The place was clean, had a gorgeous view, we saw some elk snacking right below the deck, and the well stocked kitchen meant we didn't run out of pots or pans while making meals for 8. Would definitely stay again!

Grizzly Den was a perfect location for us to enjoy Gardiner and get into Yellowstone for early morning and late afternoon animal watching! The upstairs gave our kids lots of options for sleeping arrangements that were fun (and separate)! Plenty of cooking utensils and appliances in the kitchen for us to use. But we loved getting to walk to the Tumbleweed Bookstore and Cafe for delicious breakfast and Cowboy's for an amazing dinner! The beds were comfortable and even with low temps in late November the house was warm and cozy. The deck and view from the deck were great as well. The house is stocked with game and puzzles too! Perfect for the evenings! Thank you for letting us enjoy your home while we got a quick trip away!
