Spacious Log Home near Yellowstone Park/Gardiner. Sleeps up to 12, deck and view

Situated on 20 private acres overlooking the Yellowstone River and Paradise Valley, this custom log home is the perfect Yellowstone National Park basecamp for couples and families alike. The A-frame design makes the living area spacious with high ceilings and large windows giving a bird's eye view of the Yellowstone River and southern Paradise Valley. The northern facing wrap around deck is a perfect place to grill, lounge, soak up the sun, and watch the sunlight fade over the river.

Anyone familiar with Paradise Valley will recognize that this property is in Tom Miner Basin, one of the most popular areas in the valley. Tom Miner Basin is home to herds of wildlife as they migrate in and out of Yellowstone National Park. Elk, deer, big horn sheep and antelope call Tom Miner home much of the year. From late fall to spring a herd of big horn sheep can be found sunning themselves in the driveway and the nearby grass land. Hummingbirds love the area as well, as the former owners faithfully filled their feeders, to watch them from the windows.

The upstairs hosts two main bedrooms, each with their own private full bathrooms and in-room spacious vanities. One room has one king and two XL twins. All three are brand new and selected for comfort. The XL twins can convert to a second king, should guests prefer. The other room has a new king bed and two regular twins.

The downstairs hosts two smaller bedrooms, each with a queen bed. Both bedrooms have in-room vanities and they share a full bathroom in the east wing with a door for complete privacy from the rest of the house.

The open concept kitchen is well stocked with basic spices and ample amounts of cookware, dinnerware and glassware. The kitchen island is a good place for breakfast or dinner prep. The dining room table seats 8 comfortably with views of the Yellowstone River, Paradise Valley, and lower Tom Miner Basin. The living room has a flat screen TV with comfy chairs and a couch. We also have a toy bin for kids, books, movies, and an electric piano.

If you need a spacious basecamp for your southwest vacation to Montana with Yellowstone National Park entrance 20 miles away, and the geographical border a few minutes up the gravel road from the house, this is the place for you.

**Please note our nightly base rate is for 8 guests. There is an additional charge of $25/person/night for groups of 9 to 12 guests. Infants (0-2 years old) are welcome without additional charge.**
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

We absolutely loved this home. The location was excellent, short drive to the North entrance of Yellowstone. Saw lots of wildlife from the deck. The views are amazing, the house was clean and exactly as advertised. The owners of the home were very helpful and welcoming. 100% recommend.

The location and cleanliness of this home was excellent!! The owners are kind and very responsive. It was a perfect distance from many adventures!We traveled with 6 of our children ages 3-18, so 8 total. It was a bit of a tight fit for us. The listing states the house could sleep 12. I would not suggest taking more than 8 people. The kitchen appliances all work well, but the kitchen is small and there isn’t a lot of indoor seating for meals. We ate every breakfast and dinner at the house and packed lunch in the provided cooler (which was very helpful!). Due to limited storage space we had food covering the counters. Again, everything worked and was very clean, just not quite large enough for what we prefer!The seasonings aren’t well stocked so if you’re going to cook, I’d recommend bringing some or buying some. We flew so didn’t bring anything like that with us. It gets very hot in the home as the day goes on. We traveled in august. There are only a few fans for the bedrooms, so just keep that in mind. There were some very warm nights. It did finally cool off in the middle of the night/early morning. The view is absolutely stunning and the deck area is great for relaxing and hanging out. Overall it was a nice stay but we wouldn’t stay again due to the size and preferences for our family and how hot it became in the house. It was a very hot week so I understand though. If you’re used to AC it is quite an adjustment. It didn’t deter us from having an awesome week though!

Wonderful place to see wildlife just up the road behind the house. We saw elk, deer, and grizzly bears one evening before sunset. The two bedrooms upstairs were roomy, great for family. Great communication with host. We would love to come back again.

Great location, comfy stay

We are an extended family of 9 (siblings, spouses, 3 teens and grandparents) most of whom are visiting Yellowstone for the first time! The property was exactly as described. The hosts were responsive when we had a minor shower issue. They even gave us super useful wildlife viewing tips! And you cannot beat the location. We didn’t have time to stay longer, sadly. 10/10 totally recommend.

Best property ever!

Amazing property, view, and hosts. My son was sitting on the couch messaging on his phone, and I asked who he was talking to. He said the property owner. He seems like a great guy. We appreciated the personal communication and touch. We would definitely choose this place again the next time we get out that way.

This was an amazing cabin with a short drive to Yellowstone. We were able to see a lot of wildlife just driving around the mountain. The owners were so nice and great to deal with. We ended up buying a pan, spatula, and coffee filters for the property. I wish there were some better baking sheets and kitchen items (like a pizza cutter) in the kitchen, but that stuff wasn’t that big of a deal. Great property and you’ve got to check it out!

Beautiful, convenient location with friendly hosts

This property is great for a family vacation. About 20-25 minutes from Yellowstone, with lots of opportunities to see wildlife in the area. The house is clean, spacious and well equipped. The hosts were very friendly and helped us spot even more wildlife in the area. There is a small but well stocked grocery store in Gardiner for daily needs. Overall I highly recommend staying here.

Lovely stay

Multi-generational family stay while exploring Tetons, Yellowstone and surrounding area. Well appointed and lovely log cabin home. Comfortable surroundings, plenty of space to hang out together, sleep and bathrooms. Beautiful surroundings, greeted with snack basket and fresh eggs that was a wonderful surprise. Owners live down the hill on the river which was a great exploration. Friendly and offered welcome advice about surroundings re: Yellowstone and where to see grizzlies, etc. Location is central to what we wanted to do in area

We highly recommend staying here. The cabin was very clean and cozy. We loved the view of Paradise Valley, cooking on the grill and relaxing on the deck at night looking at the stars with a cool breeze. This rental provided bear spray, coolers, river towels, dish, dishwasher and laundry detergent, a great variety of spices and cooking utensils. We had plenty of towels for the week. We were welcomed with farm fresh eggs and some snacks. We enjoyed talking to Vern. He is a very kind person. Don’t hesitate to book your stay here. We would definitely come back!

We stayed at the Emigrant house during the Yellowstone portion of our family's bucket list trip West. The house was exactly what we were looking for - rustic, off the beaten path and perfectly large enough to accommodate the 9 of us comfortably.

Family adventure

This home was perfect for our family. Plenty of space for the 5 adults and 3 kids. We were able to observe grizzlies in the wild nearby (at a safe distance!) and my husband and son did some fishing. It was not far from Yellowstone’s north entrance. There is a long dirt road to get to the house since the bridge was washed out, but the drive is definitely worth it.
