About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Gateway To Yellowstone Park And Outdoor Adventure. FREE internet and cleaning.

Escape to the Cozy Cabin, a charming retreat nestled on over half an acre of treed land, offering ample parking for your cars, trailers, ATVs, and snowmobiles. Step inside through the spacious mudroom, where you can shed your adventure gear and utilize the full-size washer and dryer.

The well-appointed kitchen, featuring a new microwave and induction range with oven/air fryer combo (updated for the 2022 season), flows into the open living and dining area. Unwind on the plush sofa, wrapped in a cozy blanket, as you enjoy the warmth of the fireplace or watch a movie.

The Cozy Cabin comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests across four bedrooms, each equipped with its own heater for personalized comfort. Two bedrooms are conveniently located off the living room, while two more await upstairs. Fresh linens adorn the beds, with spares available in the first-floor linen closet. One upstairs bedroom opens onto a large covered porch with a table and benches, perfect for enjoying the serene surroundings. The other, dubbed the "Cub's Den," delights kids with two bunk beds, a TV, and a DVD player—granting you some well-deserved peace and quiet. A fold-out bed in the living room sofa provides additional sleeping space.

Stay connected with complimentary high-speed internet (100+ Mbps). Two bathrooms, one fully remodeled for the 2021 season, offer showers, toilets, and sinks, stocked with fresh towels—extras are available in the linen closet. The fully equipped kitchen includes cooking essentials and select spices, while a propane BBQ grill awaits outside. Gather around the fire pit, encircled by trees and log benches, for memorable evenings under the stars (just bring your own firewood and food).

Adventure beckons beyond the doorstep. The West Entrance to Yellowstone National Park is a scenic 30-minute drive away. Ride ATVs or snowmobiles directly from the driveway, embarking on journeys of any length—even over Two Top Mountain to West Yellowstone, Montana. Fishing, boating, kayaking, and canoeing are just minutes away, with several restaurants and a grocery store in town for convenience or a night of "Eating Out"—our favorite recipe!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Our stay at this property was disappointing and did not match the expectations set by the listing. While the rental advertised complimentary cleaning, we were asked to thoroughly clean the cabin before departure, and we were also charged for damages that did not occur.The cabin itself is outdated, with uncomfortable and unclean bedding and mattresses. The mudroom lock was broken, requiring us to use less convenient entrances. Additionally, access to the property was difficult due to poor road conditions and multiple detours.Overall, the experience was unsatisfactory, and I would recommend considering alternative accommodations such as a hotel or another short-term rental.

Great trip with my daughter to tour the area and get in a little fishing. The Cozy Cabin was perfect for the two of us but could certainly accommodate a lot more people. Everything was really nice. The only two "dings" I would give were:a) It would be very helpful to have a shelf in the bathrooms to store shaving kit or other toiletries. b) There should be some instructions provided for powering on the TV. The little button on the extension cable was not obvious at first.The host was very pleasant and accommodating. We would definitely stay the next time in the area.

Great Stay Close to Yellowstone

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was well-supplied with everything we needed. We were a group of 4 adults and 5 kids aged 6-15. Everything was clean and well-taken care of. We liked that there was a nice outdoor space and fire pit to enjoy as well. Our only minor complaint was that the mattresses could stand to be replaced. We had a great time at Yellowstone and coming back to a cozy cabin at the end of each day was lovely!

Beautiful cabin and location in the woods! 25-30 minutes to Yellowstone's West entrance so very convenient. Kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed plus some! Saw 2 moose one evening right outside in the driveway around 6:00 pm. Thank you!

Yellowstone vacation 2024

We stayed at this home for our trip to Yellowstone in August 2024. The home was reasonably priced and 30 mins from the town of West Yellowstone. We found the description of the home to be accurate, however there are a few things that bear mentioning. The home was clean and the one issue we had with cleanliness of a carpet in an upstairs room was handled by the owner. The problem is that the furniture is older and the couches definitely show signs of wear and use. Because the home has no air conditioning, it smelled musty when we entered. I definitely feel the couches should be cleaned. The home has no dishwasher - a fact that I overlooked when booking. This is not necessarily a problem except that renters are dependent on how clean the previous renter was. We found "sticky" mugs and dishes and the cutlery was not as clean as I would like. A dishwasher would be a welcome improvement to ensure cleanliness of kitchen items.The final issue we had was that the owner only allows two bags of trash per check-out. Other trash has to be dealt with by the renter. The owner does include clear instructions as to where to take the trash but it just felt cheap. We were traveling with an infant and a toddler and diapers alone filled two trash bags!

Nice and peaceful

It was a nice place to be and share with family. We visited Yellowstone and stayed here. We were able to cook our meals and enjoy each others company. I will say the coffee machine is different from what the picture is online. Although it said it took pods we did not see where or how. Maybe we just didn’t know how to use it but it is a different machine than what’s listed. We did see some cute squirrels around the place. We did enjoy that we had options on how to cook things. Loved that they had a bbq grill to use. I would recommend this place. It’s very peaceful outside. I enjoyed sitting outside. I don’t drink coffee but I imagine others would enjoy sitting outside sipping on some coffee. Oh and the shower pressure was so lovely! I never tried the one connected to the kitchen but the one from the living room was very nice.
