Six guests from Switzerland to AZ and in between.

We enjoyed the isolated location, and the large property to explore. It would have been nice to set around the fire pit, but time didn't allow. The interior decor (mounts, skins, wall hangings, furnishings) was awesome. Huge pantry with basics and more. Nice big showers. Air conditioned.

Nice and Peaceful

This house was clean, spacious, and peaceful. It is located within 10 minutes of downtown Livingston. All of the furnishings are very authentic western and comfortable. I would highly recommend if you are in the Yellowstone area.

Blanket With Bloody Band-Aid

Beautiful but DIRTY. We stayed at the property while bringing our son to MSU for his freshman year in August, 2020. The home had a wonderful floor plan and accommodated our family very well. However, the house was DIRTY and the furnishings were worn and stained. The first night we had no lights in half the house because of a blown fuse. We couldn't find the fuse box, (it was outside on the back deck) there was no 3 ring binder with household information that is normally found in VRBO homes. The garbage cans were FULL, countertops had dirty rings, the windows were filthy and etched by something that distorted the view, the master bedroom had a blackhead on the mirror and there was water in the Mrs. Meyer's soap dispenser to stretch the last dregs of hand soap. The bedding was VERY WORN and had stains, but the worst of all was the bloody Band-Aid we found stuck to the blanket on the last day of our stay. My son slept with a bloody Band-Aid for three nights. We discovered it the last morning after my son complained of something scratchy at the foot of his bed. When I called the management company that services this property to complain, they were slow to return my call and only gave us our cleaning fee back. They acted as if this was a great concession for them ($150). I wish now I had held them more accountable. The management company wouldn't allow us to check-in to the property until 5pm because they needed "extra time to clean due to COVID". THEY DIDIN'T EVEN WASH THE BLANKETS, We are just lucky we didn't all get sick. I have pictures of the blackhead on the mirror, watered down soap, dirty/etched windows and bloody bandage. I would think twice before renting a home from Mountain Home

Beautiful Property

We rented this house while in Montana for a wedding. It is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. It’s a little hard to find, especially at night, but the surrounding area is stunning! We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Highly recommend.

Fabulous Montana Experience

We rented this property for our winter vacation and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! We used it as a jumping off point to visit Mammoth Hot Springs and to tour Yellowstone national park in the winter. We thoroughly enjoyed the ranch setting the chance to visit nearby horses and to watch deer in the morning. The property was clean and we liked that all the rooms were on the main floor. We played games, had evening drinks, and enjoyed relaxing and watching the elk in the mornings. Our kids were initially somewhat startled by the mounted animal heads on the walls (they are city slickers :)) but ended up naming them all and got used to them quickly. I highly recommend this property for a small family wanting a Yellowstone or Montana vacation.

The ranch was even more wonderful than we expected! It was the perfect home for relaxing, cooking, and enjoying quality family time. Beautiful views and close enough to plenty of shopping and dining. The home has beautiful decor and comfortable spaces. We enjoyed the breathtaking views everywhere we drove from the ranch. Was an absolute perfect getaway and I highly recommend to anyone coming to see Montana!

Total get away with the family

We loved the wide open spaces, the super comfortable home, the deer in the back yard and the horses in the fields. Every day we went for walks and every night we looked at the infinite amount of stars. It was just what we needed. Great place that had it all for us. Thank you

Paradise on the Shields River(bend Ranch)

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Shields Riverbend Ranch.The views around the ranch of the Crazy, Absaroka, and Bridger mountain ranges were surreal, and the ranch provided a panoramic view of the ranges. There was easy access to the Shields River which provided my sons and I many hours of enjoyment! And when fishing is not so good, the quaint, nostaligic streets of Livingston are only 15 minutes away...great restaurants (Gils Goods and Pinkys among them), art shops and of course Dan Bailey's fly shop. Back at the ranch, we enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the morning watching the birds and other wildlife; and at night we retired to the patio area for a night time show of stars and sounds of the "last best place." The decor of the ranch house was comfortable-western and it was obvious great care had been put in to making it a truly unique place. In preparing for the trip I talked with Mountain-Rentals office a couple of times and received great customer service, so good in fact I could not believe it. I plan on renting again from them.

River Home

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Shields Riverbend Ranch. The house is very comfortable, especially having a real fireplace and tasteful furnishings. We loved to be able to walk through the backyard to the beautiful Shields river. The views are great, you see the Absaroka-, Crazy- and Bridger Mountains from different windows. The location is wonderful; just 15 min to Livingston; yet you are away from the crowds. We will be back whenever we travel to the Livingston area. Management is great. Got us an early check in and mailed back an item we forgot at the house. Thank you for opening your wonderful place to us.
