Otter`s Edge | Steps to River| Hot Tub | 29MI to YNP
Welcome to Otter’s Edge, a cozy 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath cabin tucked into the quiet Rancho McRae neighborhood. Curl up by the propane stove, unwind in the hot tub, or gather around the firepit under the stars on two custom outdoor decks. You’re just steps from the communal boat launch and beautiful Island Park Reservoir—perfect for fishing or boating. Yellowstone National Park is only 40 minutes away. After a day of adventure, relax with smart TVs and enjoy a peaceful, memory-making retreat.
🛏️ Sleeping Layout (Perfect for Families & Groups)

🏡 The Space
The cabin features a warm, open living area centered around a cozy propane fire stove, creating the perfect atmosphere after long adventure days. Smart TVs make it easy to unwind.
The full kitchen is well-stocked for cooking at home (please note: no dishwasher) and is ideal for everything from big breakfasts before Yellowstone days to grilling and dinners back at the cabin.
Large windows, natural light, and thoughtful cabin finishes make the space feel both comfortable and elevated.
🌊 What Makes Otter’s Edge Stand Out

Perfect Family Stay with Beautiful Nights and Amazing Hosts!Our family had the most wonderful stay at this property! We traveled with three adults (including a grandfather) and two kids. The home was absolutely perfect for all generations. It was clean, spacious, and very comfortable for everyone.Our favorite part of the trip was spending time outside at night. The fire pit was fantastic for gathering together. Relaxing in the hot tub under a sky full of bright stars was truly magical!The highlight of our trip was the incredible honesty and kindness of the hosts. I accidentally left my wallet behind when we checked out. The hosts found it and mailed it right back to me immediately! This level of care and helpfulness is rare. We are so grateful for their quick communication.We highly recommend this home to any family looking for a stress-free and welcoming place to stay. We would absolutely love to come back again!
