Loved this cabin! Clean, updated, well appointed. Warm! The s’mores kits were adorable. Great for shorter stays as no oven; induction top only in ours. Easy parking. And super quiet! Staff were very nice. Breakfast it included with cabin stays. Would highly recommend.

Has a log cabin with knotty pine interior - 2 bedrooms and two large screen tv's. Bed were firm. The kitchen was well equipped and clean. Was a short distance to the indoor pool, which was rather cold. Good hot tub, though. Complimentary breakfast was adequate - things in packages, fresh fruit and good coffee.

The cabin was so amazing and exceeded our expectations. The front desk was helpful each time we needed something. The smore kit was the best way to walk in to a Yellowstone Cabin. So inexpensive, yet so caring and impactful. 10 out of 10 would recommend staying there

We came in after dark from Yellowstone and left pretty early the next morning but I definitely wished we could have spent more time there. Could hear the wolves howling across the street at the discovery center
