What's nearby

  • The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone offers different dramatic looks and moods dependent on the time of day. The falls are luminous in the morning. In the evening when this photo was taken, the canyon takes on a soft, almost painterly light. If you can, make a visit right after sunrise and return for the sunset.

    2 min walk - 0.2 km
  • 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.

Great stay!

We had an excellent stay! The communication was awesome and checking in was a breeze. The home was super close to the North Entrance of Yellowstone and very comfortable when we were inside during the cold and snowy weather. The kitchen had everything we needed and we felt super relaxed. A great stay!

Convenient location right outside Yellowstone

I stayed here with my wife, children (8 and 5), and my parents. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own sleeping space, and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. You are just down the road from local coffee shops and restaurants and the north entrance to Yellowstone National Park. We would stay there again.

Great town location

3 bedroom 2 bath rental worked great for walking to shops and restaurants. No designated parking only street parking. The unit gets stuffy as most windows are stationary and do not open. New pillows would be a welcome addition. The property manager was very responsive to any issue.

Excellent location

Although the front of the property was not well kept, the location and home were perfect for our needs. Comfortable and extremely close to gate to Yellowstone and within walking distance of many places to eat and shop. I walk with a cane and it was accessible. They asked for shoes to be removed when entering the home but made an exception for my braces. The front porch was a delightful place to sit in the evenings and early mornings,

Owner Didn’t Care About Uncleanliness

The location of the property is great! However, the property was not cleaned. There was toothpaste residue left on the bathroom sink faucets, the jets in the tub were covered in black mold, the kitchen sink and stove had food residue, and all air units were caked in dust. The occupation license was also expired by 9 months. I contacted the owner about this once we arrived. They said they would contact me the next morning since it was late. I didn’t receive a call, text, or message at all. They obviously didn’t care that the property was not in good condition for guests or the fact that we were not happy about the condo of the property that we paid for.

Very Convenient to Yellowstone North Entrance

This property is located in cute Gardiner and we were very pleased with how close it was to start and end our day at Yellowstone. We stayed two nights. The first night we were able to walk next door and grab dinner from a food truck and listen to live music. The following night, we got back from the park at peak dinner time, so we opted to cook dinner at the house. The kitchen is minimally stocked, but we made it happen. While the listing states it has air conditioning, it was not central air like we're used to. We visited during a very warm time of year and the upstairs got VERY stuffy and miserable. The house has a window unit and two portable units. The downstairs was comfortable, but at the end of the day, the upstairs was not. Our family of 7 had no choice but to suck it up. There is also no parking spot assigned to the house, so we had to park on the street and walk and then try to move closer to the house later in the evening. The property itself was very clean and in a quiet location. The owner was very quick to respond to my messages.

Our stay

We rented this unit for our trip to Yellowstone. It is located right at the north gate, which was wonderful. However, this was not one of our favorite VRBO stays for the trip. Particularly because it wasn't clean. There were crumbs on the living room end table and floor, and the bathtub was dirty. Also, there were high weeds in the walkway and steps going up to the unit. The platform bed in the downstairs room had a very comfortable mattress, but it was hard to get around the right side of the bed without wacking your leg on the wood bed frame corner. The upstairs loft area was a bit weird but it would be OK for kids. My 73 year old mother-in-law had to watch her head and didn't find the bed comfortable. The unit is on a hill, so you will need to carry your luggage up stairs, maybe 15 or so steps. I don't think there were many options in this small town right outside Yellowstone which met our needs of at least 2 bedroom with baths, but next time I think we'd look harder for a better unit.

Cute house, great location, some issues

This house is decorated very well, in a great location, and was very clean and comfortable. Overall, I must give it a very good review, as we enjoyed the facility. However, there were several things that concerned us. There were 6 in our group and the home was advertised and had beds for 10. That said, there were only 5 glasses, very minimal pans for cooking, and no trays for the oven (to keep our Texas toast from dripping in the oven, we ran out to buy foil). Both the kitchen sink and the tub would get hot water for a minute or so, and then change to freezing cold water (??) My husband was afraid to shower out of fear the same would happen in the shower. When we came, the long steps up to the unit were covered in ice and snow - we spent some time trying to chip it off (thank you for the shovel), as the railing only went halfway down and we had several seniors with us that were afraid of slipping. We had to park way down the street and the streets and sidewalks were treacherous. It did appear as though there might have been parking in the back for guests, but this was not mentioned to us, and the walk to the house had about a foot of snow on it. The first night there, beeping alerted us to a fire alarm that had a dead battery - the unit itself was very out of date. At that point we went looking for a carbon monoxide alarm and did not find one. These are all things that can be fixed I'm sure. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay to kick off our Yellowstone trip! The property is literally around the corner from the Roosevelt Arch, with unbeatable morning views. Just as memorable as the location were the owners. After checkout, I realized I had left my watch behind. They went above and beyond—working with their cleaning staff for several days after our departure to track it down and ship it back to me out-of-state. Truly outstanding hospitality. We would absolutely stay here again!

Large, well-provisioned, 3-bedroom place. Perfectly located, surrounded by the town's best eateries. Not quite as clean as other places we stayed, but this is not too surprising given how large this place is. Clothes washer and dryer are functional (if you bring your own detergent), but the dryer makes a terrible noise and takes too long to dry. Still, it did the job.

We loved the fact that it was in the center of the town and we were able to see elk and it was quite cozy and clean. My only recommendation is please replace the pillows because all of them were as flat as a pancake and so we ended up with neck aches :-). The host was very communicative and the town was delightful! I would also suggest that you add in the listing that one of the bedrooms is open (i.e. a loft) which inhibited privacy. Thank you!

This was a great stay! We are a family of 9 and all slept comfortably. Check in was easy. The main issue is parking. You only get 1 designated parking spot. We had 2 cars to fit all 9 of us and luckily were able to find spots not too far away to park.

Great location

The house was the right size for our group. We had plants of towels and wash cloths which is always important! The location was right around the block from the Yellowstone North entrance and was perfect for our in and out for two days in the park. Check in was easy. There were a few souvenir stores around the corner, a pizza joint and a bistro. Across the bridge (less than 5 minute drive-10/15 minute walk) was a grocery store, gas stations and other places to eat. We loved the town of Gardiner.
