Electric Peak Cabin in Yellowstone Park

NORTH PARK ENTRANCE AT GARDINER. This Yellowstone Cabin Rental Is On Private Acreage Five Miles From The Park's North Gate with the Best Wildlife Watching And Cutthroat Trout Fishing!

Charming cabin built in 2009 with two bedrooms that sleeps 5 located just five minutes from Yellowstone Park's North Entrance on several acres of private property. Perfect for travelers who want easy access to the famous Northern Range and Lamar Valley with its bison, elk, deer, wolves, bears, AND fishing for world-famous Yellowstone cutthroat trout!

This beautiful cabin is unlike all other vacation rental properties in the area. Lying in an extremely private location just above Highway 89 north of Gardiner, Montana, and the Roosevelt Arch, the cabin is easily accessed by a well-maintained, short, 300 yard-long Private Drive.

This setting provides you with total solitude and isolation from any hustle and bustle of the busy roadways leading to/from the park. However, at the same time, when needed, you are just minutes away from restaurants, the market, and shops in Gardiner or a bit further away in Livingston and Bozeman.

Built on a log frame, this cabin has all modern amenities yet has a great amount of rustic appeal including beautiful hardwood floors. It has enormous windows giving you unmatched views of Yellowstone's Electric Peak, Devil's Slide, Dome Mountain, and many other spectacular geological features. Wildlife abound here and deer, elk, pronghorn antelope, bighorn sheep, or bison are seen on the meadows and mountain slopes near the cabin. Often during the spring and fall, they are standing right in the cabin's yard. No-where else in the northern Rockies will you find wildlife this abundant and close in a natural setting.

Horses graze nearby, and the Yellowstone River, home to world-class trout fishing, leaves the park and passes just a few hundred yards below you.

There are many access sites to the Yellowstone River very near to the cabin, one within easy walking distance (that is a very great fishing spot...just ask our boys!).

Being near Gardiner, our cabin is at the home of the Yellowstone Forever, a long-standing educational institute offering numerous courses in the park. The Electric Peak Cabin is a perfect place to stay when visiting and attending these courses.

  • We visited this location but ideally needed to be there in the afternoon as the sun was on the "wrong" side of the arch. I used a wide lens to capture the arch and didn't attempt to correct the distortion as I felt it added to the picture (for me anyway). It took a long time to get this without hoardes of people in the shot.

We loved the cabin. The front porch was a great place to watch the sun set over the mountains, look for wildlife, or have our morning coffee. Todd stopped by while we were arriving and gave us lots of helpful advice. The location was perfect, only 5 minutes from Garndiner and the north gate of Yellowstone. We also enjoyed a trip to the hot springs just 3 miles down the road.

Great place

Very peaceful location and easy access to the park and hot springs. Bed we slept in was very comfortable. Sitting on the deck with the view was great. The only negative was the futon furniture was uncomfortable to sit on but we weren't at the house sitting that much since we were in the park most of the day. I would definitely stay here again. Todd was also very responsive any time I reached out. Great place!!!

Amazing

This cabin is cozy and in a perfect location. Good food around, I recommend Cowboy’s Grill. If you are looking to fish there are good spots around too. Like 8 minutes away from the North Entrance of YNP. So much wildlife around the property and looks out to Devil’s Slide.

Perfect!

The Electric Peak Cabin is the perfect get away! It was close to Yellowstone but far enough away from the park that it was relaxing. Todd, the owner, was fabulous and great to talk with. He was responsive to messages. While the cabin is near other houses and vacation rentals, its location makes it feel deceptively isolated. Herds of elk we’re passing by when we were there. Definitely recommend this cabin.

Good location

The cabin was cute and in a good location. It could use some improvements such as replacing the broken trash can, more kitchen necessities and more comfortable living room furniture. We found it to be a little too small for four adults; however we were basically there just to sleep. The shower is also very small and I’m only 5’ tall. That said, the views were beautiful, it’s close to town and lots of wildlife.

Beautiful Gateway to Yellowstone

Our stay at the cabin was amazing. The cabin is only minutes from Yellowstone, while still giving that secluded, country stay. We enjoyed watching the sunsets and gazing at the stars. Each night at dusk my family and I watched a massive herd of elk come down from the mountains and graze in the hay fields across the river. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed and then some. Gardiner is only minutes away if you need anything else during the stay. Todd always responded promptly with any questions we had. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Yellowstone.

The little cabin at Electric Peak exceeded our expectations. The location is stunning and so close to Yellowstone. We regularly saw elk nearby and had a family of deer visit the property each evening. My kids were absolutely enchanted! Todd, our host, was super responsive and friendly! The cabin is well stocked and cozy. Perfect for boardgames and movies after a long day of exploring the park.
