"Well, I've never stayed in a home like this before!" Once in a lifetime experiences can be found at the River Island Retreat. Majestic sunsets backdrop the meandering Yellowstone River, moose, and eagles circle over the house looking for fish and ground squirrel. Siebeck Island, the dead end road where you will find your unique dwelling which sits along the beautiful Yellowstone River, surrounded by trees and wildlife; yet is still walking distance to Livingston parks and downtown. Old industrial structures, an abandoned train car and more can be found on this piece of history. The home itself, a former garage for the Plant is fully remodeled and updated (top to bottom). This private sanctuary offers a unique view of the river and a secret corner of Livingston, rarely seen or experienced.
