Excellent place to stay if you want to go to Yellowstone and don't mind driving an extra 30 minutes. Clean place with comfortable beds and all you need for a few nights' stay. My new favorite place in that area!

We used this as a jumping off point to explore Yellowstone national park and it was fantastic. Prices were reasonable and it was only a 20-25 minute drive to the west entrance of the park. We had a party of 5 , (parents, kids and gramma) and the spruce cabin fit our needs perfectly . Would highly recommend to anyone.

I loved everything about this 3 night stay. I slept like a rock in the bed. It was clean and offered everything you would need, even all kitchen essentials to cook a meal. It has a homey feel to it. Cozy cabin with no expense spared. Fresh flowers being planted outside. I would stay again if ever in the area and I recommended you do too.

Little tiny cabin. Clean and cozy. The internet is a bit slow and unstable but it’s okay. It is a bit small, not enough room for large luggage and the car isn’t able to park upfront, it is a bit inconvenient.

We stayed in one of the small, dry cabins (no water, shower). We were not excited about contactless check-in on our phone (I use a flip phone only for emergencies), which was kind of a pain. The pizza at their restaurant was good in the evening. It would have been nice for the continental breakfast to start at 6am like other places we've stayed, by 7am we were already out and about heading for hiking areas.

The technology is nice. You don't meet a person, everything is through written messages. The room is very cute but small. There is no place to open a suitcase and if you are traveling with equipment it is really inconvenient. In addition, as soon as the sun rises, the room is lit.
