Yellowstone Trail Lodge · Yellowstone National park

If you could still follow the historic Yellowstone Trail to Yellowstone National Park you would pass this modern day western cabin - full of all the amenities you dream of in a vacation home, but only a short 30 minute drive to Yellowstone National Park.

The Yellowstone Trail Lodge is a 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home, and only 10 years old. The home is furnished with the finest furniture, new mattresses and every detail and amenity you could imagine. You will find yourself at the end of a rural road (but still very easy to drive to) with uninterrupted views of the Absaroka mountains and the surrounding "Paradise Valley." The minute you step inside and see the deer and antelope grazing in the 4 acres surrounding the property, you know you have found your Montana vacation home.
The lower level has a bedroom with a queen bed and nice desk, full bath and washer / dryer closet. The full kitchen with dining area is ideal for cooking meals to eat with breathtaking views or outside on the patio, enjoying the Big Sky air. Stocked with large and small appliances (all new), utensils and serving ware for the entire group.
The living room has seating for all, windows with views, and a pull out sofa (queen size) for additional sleeping. The flatscreen smart TV has Direct TV and a very simple stereo system.
Upstairs are 2 bedrooms and a shared full bathroom - the first bedroom has a queen bed, TV, and desk - and of course, more of those amazing views. The second bedroom has 2 single beds and a dresser.
Aside from everything in the home being like new, well thought out and comfortable, you cannot imagine a more ideal location for a trip to explore the mountains, rivers, towns and your favorite National Park.
The owners of the home manage a hotel in the west and know what it takes to make a guest feel at home. They also have a love for the history and romance of the historic Yellowstone Trail - a historic route that is mere yards from where the home sits. In addition to a sense of place, you will find interesting history and artifacts in the home. The Yellowstone Trail Lodge will quickly become the place you will want to return to year after year with your family and friends.

You can access the home with an electronic keypad on the front door. There is also a backdoor key pad if needed.

We live in Livingston and are available for questions or emergencies. Most info is in the welcome book or sent to you prior to arrival, but please do not hesitate to call us with any questions! We are always happy to help and would always prefer a question rather than any frustration on your part!

You are in a neighborhood, with other homes around, but it's definitely still "rural." You are 15 minutes or less from restaurants, bars, hot springs and groceries.

You will need a car to get around the area. You are an easy and short drive to Gardiner and Yellowstone National Park (to the south) or 10 minutes from Emigrant (to the north) where you can find groceries, gas, restaurants, and entertainment in either. Livingston is 25 minutes to the North of the house. We recommend 4 wheel drive in the winter time. The roads in the neighborhood are plowed in the winter, but its always a good idea in Montana!
