This small place was perfect for the two of us for a short stay. Very clean and new, and great location for visiting Mammoth Springs. Though you could have 4 people in this unit, it would be very crowded. No place for kids to play outside, as there is only a gravel seating area. I’d recommend for two travelers

We were very happy with the accommodations! The studio was very clean. It was very nice to have both internet and air conditioning. As we discovered from talking with others inside the park, most places do not! Gardiner is the perfect location for easy access into Yellowstone!

Comfy & Convenient to Yellowstone National Park

The unit was just as pictured and described - like new, modern and comfortable decor, and conveniently located to Yellowstone National Park and area restaurants and activities. The neighborhood was unexpectedly like an alleyway and all the buildings were crowded in together, however, this building was newer and very nice and you could enjoy some views of the mountains. The unit was conveniently stocked with everything we needed, and we truly enjoyed our stay!

Clean & comfortable, but...

If I had Google earthed where this property sits, I would not have booked it. It's not nice there. Kudos to the genius level pics that hide it!However, it was comfortable. Best sofa bed ever! It was clean. It was quiet. We had zero issues with our stay.

Stay in Gardiner

Very nice accommodations. The parking lot and entrance are located off an alley. It appears many of the surrounding buildings have some renovation going on, so the area is probably on the upswing. Very quiet. Easy access to amenities in town.

Modern Delight

Sparkling clean modern studio apartment so close to northern entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Owner reached out personally when answering question. Lovely start up extras. Gorgeous shower area. A group of Elk literally walked down our street each day. Only suggestion is a bit of space for hanging or placing clothes. Would return for sure and highly recommend.

Great Yellowstone property

This apartment was perfect for our family when we were visiting Yellowstone. It's super close to the entrance and the property manager is very helpful. We couldn't figure out the stove top and he came in to give us a tutorial. I would stay there again!

Amazing place to stay in Gardiner

This is one of the most amazing places to stay in Gardiner, Montana. The property was immaculate. It was very tastefully decorated, and was a wonderful find. The hosts are amazing, and made this the easiest VRBO stay I will be booking here again in the future.

Great stay!

Loved how close this was to the north entrance of Yellowstone! Easy check-in process. Clean. I agree with other reviews that it would have been really nice to have a couple luggage racks for suitcases though, as there wasn’t a great place to put those. It would also be nice if there was a way to turn off the blue light on the mirror in the bathroom, as it is bright at night if you like it completely dark when falling asleep. More so personal preference though. Would definitely stay here again!
