The house was awesome with lots of room to spread out and hang out. We enjoyed the outdoor space (the deck and fire pit) and the indoor space (pool table, huge kitchen and large dining table). It was perfect for our family! Thank you!

Thank you Barabara your home was so beautiful and and homey :) everything was well kept clean and kitchen well stocked l.. We loved the outdoor porch and fire pit area it was used everyday watching sunset 💗 Then town was cute and convenient to Yellowstone National Park every day for us. Appreciate the referral to places to eat and activities as well. Gardiner is beautiful will definitely be back ❤️❤️ The Fager Family~ From Central Illinois

The house worked well for the 3 generations traveling together. The house was clean and the host provided most everything we needed including snacks. Don’t forget to use the bear spray in the laundry room! We saw so much wildlife! In Gardiner the elk are everywhere and in the park we saw a bear and her 2 cubs several times as well as bison, mountain goats, and pronghorn antelope! We also saw a grizzly and wolf pup through our guide’s scope. In the evenings go down to the food truck area for ice cream and music. We had a wonderful time and Barbara communicated well and answered all of our questions promptly. Highly recommend this property and host and the sauna!

This house was an amazing home base for our family YNP trip. It was very well appointed, comfortable, and easy to manage. Our boys loved playing in the yard catching butterflies and crickets in the native plants all over the yard. In addition to the house amenities being outstanding, the location was perfect. Easy to get to everything in and around YNP that we wanted to visit, easy to get home at night, and Gardiner is a great town. The town had everything we needed and some fun stuff too - rafting, restaurants, etc. I highly recommend this property for families.

We stayed for 3 nights in July and used this house as our homebase to explore Yellowstone. The house was perfect for our extended family of 12. It has plenty of room,was very well stocked with games, puzzles, and everything you'd need in the kitchen, and the yard was great for the kids to play.

We stayed in this very beautiful, very clean and very well maintained house on July 27 to 29, 2023. We love to come back the same house again. We appreciate greatly homeowner and Barbara Bush for designing and planning everything for the guests very professionally. Everything we need was available in the house with a stunning Mountain View. Everything was very clean and well-organized. Never seen such a clean sauna. Looking forward to returning. Thank you!

Exceeded our expectations! Beautiful home and garden. Elk visiting the neighborhood. Fun for kids. Lots to do in and around Gardiner. Barbara was immediately responsive whenever we had questions. Grab this property for your vacation!

Short distance to Yellowstone North entrance and mammoth hot springs area for very convenient exploration of the park. Home is spacious, clean, well stocked, and has beautiful views. Owners had a generous bowl of snacks available as well as bear spray to borrow —thoughtful and necessary extras! Highly recommend !!

The pictures accurately portray the property but don’t do the views justice. The only reason I don’t give the property 5 stars on each topic is because it is difficult to find. Hopefully the property manager can update the directions in the check-in email to make it easier to find. Otherwise, I would definitely book this place again if we ever go back to Yellowstone!

Fantastic location for all things Yellowstone! Clean and private. The elk watching from the porch was the best. I would note that there is bear spray in the laundry room - a few of them. Check there first before you spend $50 on it at the store. Overall - 10/10!!!!!

Barbra is a great host and this property was perfect for our group. With 5 couples staying at the property, we had enough room for all of us. Gardiner is a wonderful location to stay when visiting Yellowstone. So many restaurants close by and shopping. We were able to walk to almost anything we wanted. Wildlife were abundant around the property and it was so fun to see them every morning and evening. The home had everything you would need including snacks and entertainment. This truly was a home away from home and we stay here again in a heartbeat.

The house was AMAZING. Lots of space. Great for kids and babies. Great view. Great location for visiting Yellowstone and walking around Gardiner. The host was really kind and helpful. The driveway is really tucked in there so just pay attention to your GPS when you’re trying to get there. Highly recommend this property.

This home was perfect for our family of 8 with ages 10 to 71. Description of property and photos was accurate. Kitchen was amazing.

Minutes from the North Yellowstone entrance. This place is fabulous. Everything you see in the photos and more. Highly recommend.

By far one of the best properties we rented. We stayed the first week of April, off-season for everything, but still plenty to see. Our mostly elderly 8-person group loved everything about the home. The views from the front are great, photos online do not do that justice. We watched animals all day every day. Nights are so peaceful, quiet, and beautiful. Barbara was great to work with, always fast and accommodating. She and Alan are very knowledgeable and helpful. The neighborhood was great. We enjoyed walking into town and to the park entrance on many days. Well-stocked neighborhood store nearby. The home is one of the best-stocked VRBO's we've had. Love the kitchen and large table, great for large groups. The beds are super comfy, the master bed is adjustable. Plenty of room to spread out, and hubby enjoyed to pool table. We just love this house. Already planning on coming back.

Fantastic location and beautiful home, we had a great time in Gardiner and be able to stay in this home added to the memories we made. Close to shops in the town and at the doorsteps of Yellowstone, it was a wonderful base for our week of adventures. Barbara answered all our questions and the house was well stocked. All in all, just a wonderful time.

We had a fabulous stay! The kitchen is well stocked and the beds comfortable. The location is perfect for Yellowstone Park visits. We’ll be back!!

Our experience at this home far exceeded our expectations. Everything was clean, spacious, and very family friendly. We particularly loved the 10 person dining table that overlooked the views of Yellowstone! The management was incredibly kind and easy to communicate with if there was a need. The house was very convenient to downtown Gardnier. We were easily able to walk into town to shop and explore. Our family made new memories that will last us a lifetime!

I could not say more about this property and its host. Absolutely gorgeous view, house, yard etc .... I brought my husband who was unable to go in 2020 due to COVID and military guidelines, but he retired this year from the military and we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary, so I made sure he could go this time. I brought my dad too who is 67 and has never really traveled, so Montana was a bucket list item. I also brought our best friends who were celebrating their 26th anniversary and I brought my cousin (who was graciously able to park her small RV (she's a Montana native) out front so that she could bring her old doggy with her, as the house rules are strictly no pets, which we totally understood, but this was a wonderful accomodation that they allowed. (Many, many thanks). Our first morning we had Elk cows and calves literally in the driveway, we had huge bull Elks bugling literally at the back fence, we watched them for at least a couple of hours roaming the front and back yard area, it was amazing!!! Can't say thank you enough. Oh! Also....lots of clean towels, beach towels, bags for us to take rafting, coolers etc. Just a wonderful place to stay.

Let me start by saying that on our second full day at this beautiful house, historic floods hit and Yellowstone closed. Suddenly our plans to spend a week exploring Yellowstone were not going to happen. We had to decide what to do: evacuate when the roads opened or stick it out. We decided to stay, and I’m so glad that we did. Turns out there is plenty to do in the area even without Yellowstone. We found some great hiking trails (thanks to our hosts!) and got to see amazing parts of the Montana wilderness we would not have seen otherwise. We took the kids on a beautiful ride through the mountains on horseback. And we spent time relaxing in the natural hot springs to wrap up our trip. If the river had been a little safer, whitewater rafting and fishing would also have been options. Gardiner is a really nice town to walk around, and the business owners and restaurants couldn’t be more welcoming. The house is almost a destination in itself. It is as nice or nicer than it looks in the pictures, and our crew of cousins (7 kids ages 13 down to 2 years) had a blast. They spent lots of time running around the yard, playing pool, and roasting marshmallows around the firepit. We had board game tournaments with the games provided at the house, watched movies on the large TV (with microwave popcorn from the Gardiner Market!), and those of us who like to read had no shortage of books to choose from. Honestly, they’ve spared no expense to make things comfortable. Everything you can think of is provided. And the views are incredible! As for the hosts, I can’t say enough good things about them. When the flood hit they checked on us to make sure we were ok; when the water was deemed unsafe from the flooding they brought us bottled water; when it looked like we might lose power, they brought us batteries for the flashlights; and when the park closed they recommended other trails and things to do in the area. Their kindness and a safe, comfortable vacation house saved what could have been a disastrous trip. It wasn’t the vacation that we planned, but it was a lovely vacation nonetheless. If you’re reading this wondering if you should still come to Gardiner while the park entrance closed, I recommend it. You’ll get to see a beautiful part of Montana that’s a bit off the beaten path.

Great location and fantastic property with many amenities. Ideal for our family of 10 ranging in ages from 3 - 68. Wildlife at your doorsteps on many occasions.

We had a wonderful time-this is our third time in Gardner and our favorite place to stay so far. The location is great - the grocery stores within walking distance. The kitchen had everything that we needed as well as condiments, basic supplies and snacks- not expected but definitely made it convenient. The beds were comfortable and the downstairs area was a hit with the kids/teens in our group. The host was quickly responsive for any questions that we had. We enjoy being in Gardner due to the proximity of Yellowstone national park – and would often see elk in the yard. The fire if it was also a nice as it was easy to use. As Gardiner has grown, there were more restaurants to choose from as well as a nice bakery next to the Conoco!Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent on all counts!!

Excellent on all counts!!

Family and friends enjoyed our stay in this home. It was cozy and 5 minutes from the North Yellowstone entrance. The beds were comfortable and we had enough rooms for everyone. Property manager was attentive and had a great response to our questions and concerns.

Our family of 7 including 2 on crutches stayed here very accessible with the main level Very clean well stocked and very tastefully decorated Barbara was very responsive to any questions Thanks Seema

We had a bless! The host and the place were exceptional, everything was super clean and nice, amenities out of the ordinary, very much recommended to stay if you're in the area of Yellowstone park

Loved the place managers where great house was beautiful views where amazing close to shops and gate to Yellowstone close

We stayed here during our first trip to Montana while visiting Yellowstone. Being so close to the North entrance made it easy to slip into the park early in the morning to enjoy the solitude and animal watching before the crowds arrived. Gardnier is the cutest little town. It has a great market and several good little restaurants. The home exceeded all our expectations in every way. It is decorated nicely and is very welcoming and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and has everything you could need. The basement is insane and allows for engaging, fun family time whether playing games, shooting pool or hanging out by the fire. The mountain views from the main floor are simply breathtaking. You can even see The Roosevelt Arch from the large picture windows. We hated to leave and are already looking forward to our next trip back to the area and plan to stay here again.
