Awesome cabin in beautiful location

Stayed here for 4-nights on a skit trip. Just a great little cabin in a beautiful location. Fully equipped and cozy. Peaceful location with river right out the front door.Easy, scenic 30-minute drive to Big Sky. 10-15 minutes from Riverhouse for great dinners. The Corral not far away either for drinks and dinner.

The wood stove was awesome. Nice, quiet, and clean. However, I would not recommend driving across the bridge during the winter. Thank you!

Super cute, awesome place

Super cute, clean and nice. We stayed in the winter. The wood burning stove is a cool touch and everything was as we thought. One note for folks coming in the winter is that the parking is a bit away from the cabin so you need to lug your luggage and food through the snow, which may not be easy for everyone. Happy traveling, nice place!

Nice cabin

Great place with all the amenities to enjoy time away and easy access to the surrounding areas... Kitchen fully stocked, hot water shower, stove keeps the heat all night. We enjoyed using it as a 'home base' during our MT/WY adventures.

Snowy getaway

We booked this sweet cabin for our ski trip to Big Sky. It proved to be an amazing base for our adventures. Quiet, serene and private was just what we needed. We did not mind the hike in over the snow packed bridge, but could see this as a problem for those with mobility issues. Natalie was absolutely great at getting back to us when we had questions, and the cabin was toasty warm. We will definately be back.

Awesome

We loved the cabin and the location. It was very quiet. There is a small resort across the river but we hardly noticed. Also, it’s close to a lot of amazing hiking trails, whitewater rafting, and fishing. Highly recommend!

Amazing Little Cabin

This is a great little place. Beautiful view out in the front deck. Could have used a TV for background noise but it was a nice change. Would stay again. Feel like a true Montana stay rather than at a resort that feel corporate.

Anniversary Celebration

The cabin was awesome!! Had everything we needed and was in a great location for everything we wanted to experience in northern Montana! Natalie was fantastic at answering questions and modifying our reservation…one of the best hosts we have had!!—The cabin is located behind Cinnamon Lodge, on a road that doesn’t quite look like a road, it took a minute to find it, and there is no cell signal to call and ask. It truly is right on the river, it was spectacular!!

Simple, rustic

We loved the simplicity of this rustic property. We didn’t need more than it offered, and we liked being so close to the river. The price was reasonable and the daily drive to Big Sky was not a problem at all.

Overall, a great stay

Right on the river with a fantastic view and good fishing. There was a little more traffic noise than I expected, but not bad. It is a tighter fit than expected and could benefit from a few things in the kitchen, an arm chair or couch and resupply of trash bags with a larger can for longer stays like ours. In general, it was great, and the price was right. If I ever get to go back, it is on my short list of places to stay!

Great cabin

My husband and I stayed for 5 nights and 4 days and we LOVED it. It was just the right size. It stayed warm the entire time with no drafts which was great since it snowed for 3 of those days. The sounds of the river flowing was very peaceful. The location is great-about 10 minutes from Big Sky and 45 from West Yellowstone. The bridge to get to the cabin looks very rickety but was actually very sturdy. We definitely would stay again.

Love this cozy little cabin!

This cabin was great for a 5 day, 4 night stay. About a 24 minute drive to Big Sky resort. The cabin is located across the river from the parking area, and you have to cross a bridge by foot, but it's not a very long walk. Beautiful river view out of the front window. The heater was responsive and everything was functional and tidy. I would definitely stay again!

Great property, beautiful view.

Our stay was really good, only thing was that the property might need to me sprayed for pest control. We probably killed about 15 spiders, one even got inside of our luggage/clothes. Other then that the property was amazing and the we enjoyed our stay.

What we were looking for

Very nice property. Good location to Big Sky and Yellowstone. Quiet area. Bridge that gets you to the property is a little concerning but does its job. Loved the river and the calmness there. No TV but that is ok you don't really need it Wish there was maybe a cozier seating option in the cabin. Great kitchen and very comfortable bed. Slept great!
