About this cabin rental
This area is as close to Alaska as you can get in the Lower 48 States. Due to the elevation (about 7400), the temperatures are similar, the wildlife viewing is as good or better. There are even permanent glaciers above us high in the Beartooth Mountains. The small town and residents remind me of the show, Northern Exposure. It is remote, wild and rustic here.
People who love wildlife and trout fishing (Clark’s Fork River and the numerous mountain lakes). This is the Park entrance nearest to the Lamar River Valley – and the Soda Butte Creek Valley – and the Beartooth Pass/Absaroka Wilderness area (outside the Park). We have had moose, deer, bear – black and grizzly in our yard. Wolves are often seen in the valley. (No, you don’t always see them. If you did, they would change the name to “Yellowstone Zoo”.) This is one of the premier areas of the world for wildlife viewing. The TV, internet, the shower are all extras. You realize that you are renting proximity to the wildlife – not a luxurious cabin. Many of our happiest renters are repetitive park visitors. (“Can we book for next year?” “Can we buy the cabin?”) You are by far the majority of our clients.

Very close to Yellowstone northeast entrance which was less crowded than the rest of the park. There were 2 good restaurants in nearby Cooke City. We loved the small town atmosphere.

A well treed property but not isolated or remote, at all. Three other cabins and some kind of open-air storage building were feet away. The most off-putting part of the property was the presence of the owner’s personal belongings filling every corner (literally) of the cabin: bedroom closet and bureau were filled with clothing; hangers/pegs for jackets by front door hung owners foul-weather gear. We don’t live out of suitcases on vacation, so I moved hanging clothing onto a bed in the loft. Pantry, cabinets and refrigerator’s freezer were all filled with owner’s personal perishable and non-perishable foods. Our provisions for the week were relegated to stacks on the dining table, some free space in the freezer and the refrigerator. Additionally, basic (printed) instructions for location of the bear-proof exterior garbage can, proper use of audio/video, or heating system in the main part of the house (living room, kitchen dining area) were nonexistent…temps at night ranged from mid-30’s to 40’s. Frankly, the cabin set-up was more like one might expect, for a short-fused, weekend visit to a friend’s house, rather than a rental “vacation cabin” reserved a year in advance. We will not rent this property again and cannot recommend it to my friends and family.The one bright spot regarding the cabin was the property agent: Sidney. She was excellent and answered my multiple questions upon checking in and ongoing questions during the week.
