Perfect Stay in the Treasure State
This cabin is exceptionally well-appointed, both in terms of the amenities needed for a comfortable stay and the equipment needed for outdoors activities. We arrived to the cabin, part of a secluded group of similar cabins perched on the lake. Parking was easy, and the cabin felt private despite being close to other cabins. Walking in, we were blown away by the breathtaking view of the lake, framed by mountains and the big sky. The bedrooms were large and beds comfortable. The bathrooms were clean and the kitchen was well equipped with everything needed to cook, from eggs in the morning to steak dinners at night. The porch on the main floor has a grill, which we used, and a fire pit where we made smores on starry clear nights.
The cabin is about a 2 minute walk from a small bar and restaurant. The place had a locals only vibe but was welcoming and friendly regardless. The food was great and the prices were reasonable, unlike some of the places in West Yellowstone itself. Thankfully, our hosts left a list of recommended restaurants, which came in handy.
The location made getting to Yellowstone itself a cinch. The additional 15 minutes to get to the gate as compared to staying in town is really negligible, especially when you consider that getting from the gate to grand loop road can take an hour depending on whether bison decide to hang out in the road or not. We were grateful that at the end of a long day, we could go back to our cabin and enjoy a soak in the hot tub.
