Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
It was advertised as a cottage, but it really was the lower unit to a two story with people walking around and dropping things which was noisy. he would have liked a single cottage without others above us. The ceiling fan was wired wrong and it wouldn’t go on without the ceiling light being turned on. You couldn’t run the fan at night because the lights would be on. It was clean and nice and the staff was very nice and accommodating.

Adorable little cottages overlooking the Gardiner River. Conveniently located near the NW entrance to Yellowstone NP. Rooms are well appointed with comfortable beds and a modern farmhouse decor. The friendly staff was helpful with restaurant recommendations and directions. They even offered to help take a photo of our group upon our departure. Very enjoyable stay.
