Great stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at American Bison Lodge. Our group of ten included adults, teenagers, and children. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax. The kids enjoyed the television and foosball set in the downstairs area. There was plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy our meals, and the dining room table also provided a great place to work on puzzles. The house was very clean, and the kitchen was incredibly well stocked. We had everything we needed. The location was ideal. We were close to Yellowstone West entrance. Shopping and dining in the town of West Yellowstone was fun too. The host provided great communication before, during, and after our stay. We would definitely recommend this property!

Awesome Snowmobile Camp
The house was awesome. Very spacious. Everywhere you looked there was another bedroom or bathroom. Very clean, everything worked flawlessly. The property manager was always super easy to get ahold of and was very friendly. If work brings me back out here I will definitely be booking this house again!
