Family road trip
The communication from staff, ease of check in, the surprise at how awesome the lodge was it all well exceeded our expectations! This was by far the best stop we’ve had throughout our 2 week roadtrip. We definitely will keep this place on our list when we come back to Yellowstone!

4/10 Fair

Just not up to par!
If you think this is small, I can assure you it’s even smaller! Floor looked clean but I spilled water and when I cleaned it up the rag was black. The shower didn’t drain all the way, and since your toilet is in the shower, your feet get wet every time you go in there. Not an overall good stay!

The two ladies who manage the property came quickly to assist us on how to get the TV working. They are sweet and polite. But the way the cabine was advertised I thought this cabine could accommodate three adults comfortably. The lift though has a VERY short ceiling and adults couldn’t stand up. Actually, most of 10 year-olds couldn’t either. Then we thought “Awww … how cute! This loft was built for toddlers”. But than the stairs are WAY too steep ! Way too dangerous for kids and adults. The steps are narrow and very high. So … two of the adults in our group ended up sleeping in the living room. But all in all it was a good stay. My friends complained that due to no black-out blinders on the windows the cute outside lights bothered them during their sleep. Great service though! And the river RIGHT ACROSS the resort was a treat!

8/10 Very Good

The rooms are like tiny houses very compact, but have a fridge and a microwave. A big shower a very comfy bed high ceilings lots of windows. The bed was very comfortable around our limited but the on-site pizza is excellent. Check and check out or done electronically. there are no keys to lose, which I like lots of plug-ins USB ports The only drawback was someone was smoking weed outside, and it was blowing into my unit, not a fan

I loved staying here. It was so compact but had everything we wanted (except for a water cup to brush my teeth with). It was clean tidy and easy. I'd definitely recommend this property again.

We loved everything about the resort. The only issue we had was with the laundry mat. The washers over soaked our clothing and I had to pay twice for the dryers to make sure our clothing would be dry. Our clothing never got fully dry.

8/10 Very Good

Overall a great place to stay. New, clean, lots of thoughtful touches to make it comfortable. We rented both the larger cabin with loft and kitchen, and the smaller with just a queen-sized bed. Loved the larger but I wouldn’t stay in the smaller again because of the shower/toilet setup. Once we showered, we had to wade through a puddle to get to the toilet which was a challenge in the middle of the night.

Great Stay!
Great, clean and comfortable little cabin. The only thing that could be different is the AC (window unit) set up. If you want to use the AC, you can only close the blinds half way. This forces you to fill the gap with anything to keep privacy, since the windows are in view of other units.
