We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The view of the Yellowstone river and the mountains from our back door was spectacular. The complementary breakfast was really good. It was pretty close to the park. The restaurant was great. The Yellowstone Valley Lodge far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed the quiet of the cabins, but not too secluded. The riverfront and walkable river access was lovely, along with the firepit areas. Perfect for stargazing. Very nice!

This property was ideal quiet getaway for a single person or a couple wanting to enjoy nature. Walks down by the river. Wonderful upscale dining, and the best aged beef I have ever had. Convenient to fly fishing or leisure rafting or floating the Yellowstone river. Fifteen minute drive to Livingston,MT, for other dining options. Thirty minutes to north Yellowstone entrance. Staff was professional and prompt to every need. Main office had some clothing options if you needed seasonal fishing apparel, snacks, wine and wonderful guide advice for area.

The Yellowstone Valley Lodge is all about location, location, location. It is situated on a high bank, immediately above a bend in the Yellowstone River. Roughly 15 miles outside of lovely Livingston, MT and 35 miles to the North entrance to Yellowstone National Park, YVL is convenient to both. The cabins, however, are spartan. We had a small cabin (actually a duplex) with 2 queen beds. I thought I requested a single king bed, but that could have been my mistake. The room comes with a micro fridge (think: a 6-pack of beer and maybe a chunk of cheese), no closet space, a "table" that was 2'x3' with a single chair and a small bathroom with a shower and a single sink in the adjoining room. Interestingly, advertised as a place for anglers, there were no hooks to dry waders or store fishing gear anywhere. Oh, and there is a nightly hatch of insects, completely inside the room. Swarms of them. The Yellowstone Valley Grill was on the property was a nice, albeit expensive, restaurant with a nice wine list. If you plan to use the YVL as a base for exploring the area, it's great. If you like to lounge around your cabin, you will soon feel claustrophobic.

This is a gorgeous location with many wonderful things to do in nature very close by. Area has many excellent food options. Hotel’s restaurant was in the “B” range, not the “A” range. However, everything else was perfect!
