About this property

Montana's Yellowstone Hideaway is a one bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, large bathroom, spacious shower and living room with a futon couch. The Hideaway is conveniently located just 4 blocks from the historic Roosevelt Arch and the original North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park. The grocery store, restaurants, coffee/ice cream and gift shops are all less than a mile away.

The Hideaway has pine accents and rustic/outdoor decor. It has a fully equipped kitchen, including a full size refrigerator, oven/stove, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, blender, pots, pans, plates, bowls, glasses and utensils. All linens are provided for the bedroom and bathroom as are WiFi and DIRECTV.

The Hideaway Apartment is located beside our smaller Bear Den Efficiency Apartment (VRBO #724939) and has incredible views of Electric Peak. Both apartments are located below our home, but are completely isolated with separate entrances.

If you have any questions about the Hideaway or your visit to Yellowstone please don’t hesitate to ask! I have lived and worked in Yellowstone for over 25 years and look forward to helping you experience the magic of Yellowstone that turned my 1995 vacation into a career and home for myself and two amazing daughters!!

Great little apartment

Great little 1 bedroom apartment set up. 2nd room (Living room) has a futon for kids. Whatever kitchen appliances you need it’s most likely stocked. Collapsable cooler is available if needed. Only a few blocks away from restaurants and laundromat. Would book with again

Very comfortable accommodations, very near the park. Quiet and away from the main street of Gardiner, yet close enough to walk to everything, even the Arch at the entrance.

Overall good!

We enjoyed our time at the Montana Yellowstone Hideaway. Everything inside was clean and exactly what we expected. The water/shower smelt odd but not a big deal. The only real problem we had the whole time were some noisy little neighbors. Kids from an adjacent house were very loud one morning and throwing rocks at an elk that was passing through. Other than that, we loved staying minutes from the park entrance. We recommend if you’re looking to visit Yellowstone.

Wonderful place to stay! Eric was a great host. He answered all of our questions and helped us plan what to visit at Yellowstone. Our place was within a block of the north entrance. Made it so easy to get in and out if the park. We had a nice fully-stocked kitchen along with a separate living room and separate bedroom. It’s perfect!

Exceptional Mountain Hideaway

First, let me say that Eric, the owner is outstanding! He is a Grizzly Bear Biologist in Yellowstone and offered so much advice for our trip (invaluable)! Second, the Hideaway was perfect as a base camp for all of our Yellowstone adventures. Extremely clean, well stoked and convenient to EVERYTHING! If we had to plan this trip again, we would have stayed here the entire time…we stayed a few days in West Yellowstone (1 block from the entrance) and sat in line to get into the park for over 45 minutes each day (even though we went early in the morning). The scenery in Gardiner was also so much better than West Yellowstone! Don’t pass up your opportunity to stay here! You won’t regret it.

Our experience at the Hideaway was wonderful. The apartment was impeccably clean and welcoming. Its central location in town was a significant advantage. All in all, it was an immensely enjoyable stay. Additionally, the host went the extra mile by mailing us a pair of sunglasses that had been inadvertently left behind. We couldn't recommend it more highly!

Excellent & convenient stay near Yellowstone

From start to finish the owner, Eric, was so helpful & responsive to our questions. He is very knowledgeable about Yellowstone Park and provided us with suggestions & insight. We enjoyed our stay, his hideaway apt. was very clean, quiet, as advertised, and comfortable. Bed was comfortable too. We were able to cook, lots of utensils for that. So conveniently located by the north entrance to get into the park each day. Definitely recommend!!

The apartment was very cozy and and we’ll stocked!! We only got to stay one night due to my husband’s unexpected health problem. Eric went over and above for us “out of towners” making sure we were comfortable in our time of need. I highly recommend his place and him! Thank you again, Eric!!

Fantastic stay

This unit exceeded my expectations, and Eric is a fantastic host. It was sparkling clean, with a well furnished full kitchen, a comfortable bed, plenty of room in the bathroom for personal items, and was very peaceful and quiet.

Yellowstone Get Away

The property was clean and comfortable. It is located 5 minutes form the North entrance which is a good gateway into your Yellowstone experience. Eric is a great host. He is easy going, knowledgeable about the park, and easy to get a hold of. We hired a guide to see wild life, Mike Skeleton of Yellowstone Wonders. It made for a magical day. I highly recommend Mike as well.

June, just before the Flood

Note: We are lucky to have completed our visit to Gardiner and Yellowstone National Park before the recent record-breaking floods. We are very happy that we chose to stay at the Hideaway after spending our first four nights in the park at Grant Village. The location is perfect for exploring the northern half of the park. It was nice to relax on the couch and rocker in the living room after a day in the park (much more comfortable than our Grant Village lodgings). The local grocery store was easy to find, so we were able to cut back on eating out in favor of meals "at home". The hosts, Julie and Eric, are very friendly. We enjoyed our chats with them very much, and learned a bit about Yellowstone in the process. We also enjoyed the morning visits from the local elk mother/child duo!

Perfect place to stay for Yellowstone

This was a great spot to explore Yellowstone NP from. Comfortable, clean and quiet. Kitchen was well equipped and handy, especially because there was a grocery store in town. Bed was comfortable and linens top notch. We did two days with a guide we highly recommend - Mike Skelton from Yellowstone Wonders. He helped us find so much more wildlife than we could have found on our own! Highly recommend this accommodation and that guide service for a great vacation.
