Amazing property! It had everything we could possibly need on our 4 day visit to Yellowstone. It was only 5 miles from downtown. Inside was beautifully decorated and extremely well maintained and brand new. Definitely was a wonderful stay!
House was very clean. Everything was well organized and ready for our stay.
