Situated on 20 private acres overlooking the Yellowstone River and Paradise Valley, this custom log home is the perfect Yellowstone National Park basecamp for couples and families alike. The A-frame design makes the living area spacious with high ceilings and large windows giving a bird's eye view of the Yellowstone River and southern Paradise Valley. The northern facing wrap around deck is a perfect place to grill, lounge, soak up the sun, and watch the sunlight fade over the river.
Anyone familiar with Paradise Valley will recognize that this property is in Tom Miner Basin, one of the most popular areas in the valley. Tom Miner Basin is home to herds of wildlife as they migrate in and out of Yellowstone National Park. Elk, deer, big horn sheep and antelope call Tom Miner home much of the year. From late fall to spring a herd of big horn sheep can be found sunning themselves in the driveway and the nearby grass land. Hummingbirds love the area as well, as the former owners faithfully filled their feeders, to watch them from the windows.
The upstairs hosts two main bedrooms, each with their own private full bathrooms and in-room spacious vanities. One room has one king and two XL twins. All three are brand new and selected for comfort. The XL twins can convert to a second king, should guests prefer. The other room has a new king bed and two regular twins.
The downstairs hosts two smaller bedrooms, each with a queen bed. Both bedrooms have in-room vanities and they share a full bathroom in the east wing with a door for complete privacy from the rest of the house.
The open concept kitchen is well stocked with basic spices and ample amounts of cookware, dinnerware and glassware. The kitchen island is a good place for breakfast or dinner prep. The dining room table seats 8 comfortably with views of the Yellowstone River, Paradise Valley, and lower Tom Miner Basin. The living room has a flat screen TV with comfy chairs and a couch. We also have a toy bin for kids, books, movies, and an electric piano.
If you need a spacious basecamp for your southwest vacation to Montana with Yellowstone National Park entrance 20 miles away, and the geographical border a few minutes up the gravel road from the house, this is the place for you.
**Please note our nightly base rate is for 8 guests. There is an additional charge of $25/person/night for groups of 9 to 12 guests. Infants (0-2 years old) are welcome without additional charge.**
