Little Chalet in the Forest - Year Round

Welcome to the Cozy Chalet in the Heart of Nature!

Discover our inviting log cabin nestled in the enchanting forests of Island Park, Idaho, just moments away from the captivating West Yellowstone. Meticulously rebuilt with utmost care, our cabin offers a warm and welcoming ambiance for travelers.

Inside, you'll find a well-appointed bathroom with ample space to utilize the washer and dryer, a fully-equipped studio kitchen complete with a dishwasher and garbage disposal, and in the living room area, - a generously sized flat-screen smart TV connected to the internet for your entertainment. The comfortable sofa on the main level conveniently transforms into a queen-sized pull-out bed, comfortably accommodating 1-3 guests. Additionally, a snug loft features a queen-sized log bed, offering a cozy retreat. And don't forget to relax in the new hot tub, perfect for two or three guests to unwind.

This delightful cabin, affectionately known as "The Little Chalet," is perfect for small groups of 1-3 adults, providing an atmosphere of coziness and comfort. The custom-made queen aspen log bed in the loft accommodates two, while the mini fridge boasts a tiny freezer. The studio kitchen includes a toaster oven and microwave, along with a charming dining area for 4-5 guests.

Your entire cabin is exclusively yours, with a designated parking area clearly marked. While the parking area is shared with the adjacent cabin, there's ample space to ensure your convenience. We've even provided a path from the parking area to your front door for ease of access.

The cabin is conveniently located near Mack's Inn and West Yellowstone, providing easy access to the splendors of Yellowstone National Park and the vibrant town of West Yellowstone.

The Little Chalet in the Forest
Overall, we were satisfied with our stay. The cabin appeared to be recently updated and was very attractive however it seemed more geared for younger guests rather than us senior citizens. The main floor was poorly lighted; we actually had to use the wall-mounted TV for additional lighting. This cabin is very close to the Big Chalet. The difference between the two when booking wasn’t as clear as I thought it should be. My original intention was to rent the Big Chalet and found out later it was the Little Chalet. Oh well, my mistake. The hot tub was not working when we arrived but the owner made the extra effort to repair it into the wee hours of the morning! It was very pleasant but not as private as I had hoped. All the appliances were practically new and worked well. The main bedroom is upstairs but a bit of a challenge to get into the bed due to the closeness to the ceiling. One must climb over the footboard to get in bed. The stairway is narrow; another challenge for seniors, but manageable. All told it was satisfactory. Suggestions: Some repairs to the deck are needed. Add a couple lamps on the main floor. Lastly, a nice cushioned chair for the upstairs bedroom would be nice. I would recommend the Little Chalet to younger friends with no hesitation, but caution older folk to beware of the minor drawbacks I listed above.

Cute little cabin
The cabin was in a nice location, 30 minutes away from west yellowstone. It's nice for sleeping, not much else. Very small but we spent most of our time out and about. Bring your own coffee cups

Perfect get-away
Our Little Chalet was exactly that - but so much more. We had everything we needed there - all in a very efficient set-up. It is adorable inside. We loved being able to cook our meals - thus saving us money. The kitchen had it all - dishwasher, toaster/oven, microwave, plus all the pots and pans, etc. you need. The outdoor grill was great to have, too. The sleeping situation worked out perfectly for our family of 4. The Chalet is in a beautiful area and so it was really the perfect get-away. We all loved it!

We stayed 2 nights at the little Chalet and loved every minute!
We wanted to get out of the touristy areas of yellowstone, but still be close to it and the Little Chalet was the perfect location. The cabin was cozy and perfect for us two. We loved the scenery and everything this cabin had to offer!
