Grizzly Den - Above the River! Yellowstone mountain views and Air Conditioning!

The Grizzly Den is an amazing place to call home during your visit to Montana. Come play in Yellowstone and the Gardiner Basin-Paradise Valley! Rafting, horseback riding, hot springs, fishing, hiking, dining, cross county skiing, wildlife viewing, and of course Yellowstone Park is all accessible within minutes. We will help you plan a great trip! This Air Conditioned 2 bedroom home has two additional separate loft areas for adding sleeping. We are located above the banks of the Yellowstone River and less than a mile from the north entrance to Yellowstone. We are in the heart of Gardiner, MT making it an easy evening stroll to local dining and shopping; or stay back and enjoy grilling on the deck over looking the river.
The house has 18 windows facing south into the park highlighting the stunning views of 11,000 ft Electric Peak. You can literally look out the windows, or off the deck and see: elk, antelope, deer, and occasionally bears and wolves roaming the hillsides of Yellowstone. Bring your binoculars!
We are located about an hour from the Bozeman Airport.

Family getaway

Nice place to stay. The only reason I gave 4 stars on the neighborhood is because the parking is pretty tight especially if you have multiple vehicles. It's clean and you have a nice view of the river and mountains.

Great Yellowstone location

This lovely home is conveniently located right outside the gate and yet amongst the shops and restaurants within Gardiner. It was quiet and peaceful with comforts f home. Bone bedroom downstairs and a very tight circular staircase for the other sleeping areas. But my adult kids had no issues navigating them Great back porch with beautiful Mountain View’s! We would definitely choose this property again!

Perfect to explore!

Great location to North Yellowstone! Host was great at responding to us before and during our stay! Neat town! We went during off season the week before everything opens back up but loved that we timed it this way as it was not filled with tourists and avoided all crowds! Highly recommend!

Charming and Convenient Stay with Stunning Views!

We stayed at this adorable VRBO in Gardiner for the second half of our Yellowstone trip, and it was a great experience! The property has so much character, with unique loft and nook beds that make it feel cozy and fun—definitely a place kids would love. The views from the house are absolutely breathtaking, and the location couldn’t be better. It’s within walking distance to charming shops and restaurants, making it super convenient after a day exploring the park. While the beds could have been a bit more comfortable, for the price and unbeatable location, this place is a fantastic option. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it for anyone looking for a charming, budget-friendly home base near Yellowstone!

Nice, close walking distance

Very convenient! Parking is tight but manageable. Super clean. One word of advice, only one bedroom on main floor all other beds up a very narrow but super cute spiral staircase. I would rent this place again.

Amazing stay

We had a great trip. Location was conveniently located near the north entrance to the park. Check in and check out process was very easy. The owner replies very promptly if you have any questions. The house was very cute and perfect for a family. The only small challenge was parking. Parking was very tight and we had a large SUV. Would absolutely stay again.

Great View

Seven adults and 2 children enjoyed the location of the house. The flowing stream right outside was delightful, and Gardiner was a fun community. The house is a little quirky, with 2 "bedrooms" being mattresses on he floor. Only one bedroom was downstairs and the wooden spiral staircase was narrow, which would be challenging for anyone with mobility issues.

Family Trip

Great cabin and location to restraints, shopping, and excursions. It is so close to Yellowstone Park’s north Entrance! The teens enjoyed a private room upstairs and a loft area to hang out in. Parking was a bit tight and living area is small and not much room to sit—but worked ok for us. Overall very accommodating and perfect for our family of 5! Could have taken another family with us.

Wonderful home with beautiful views of Yellowstone and Gardiner!

Check in was very easy, the hostess gave us great information about the house. The home was roomy enough for the 7 of us. Parking was a little tight. We enjoyed the deck overlooking the Yellowstone River and Gardiner. Beautiful views! The location was within walking distance to shops and restaurants. There were some issues that had to be dealt with while we were there. WiFi had also failed halfway through our visit. All in all, a very nice place.

Clean, Cozy, Comfortable, Convenient.

Grizzly Den was everything we wanted and needed. Close to the north gate of Yellowstone. Every modern convenience you’d need. More than ample for our family of four adults to sleep comfortably. They even had a Christmas Tree set up for us(we arrived on Christmas Day do that was a nice feeling). Excellent communication too. If we come to Gardiner again, we hope to stay here.

Great location - beautiful house

The Grizzly Den was a fabulous spot for our family (2 adults and 2 teenagers) to stay during our Yellowstone vacation. The beautiful setting along the Yellowstone river as well as the convenience to the Park were just part of the story. We loved the deck and wonderful grill so we could enjoy home cooked dinners soaking in the beauty of the country. We could easily walk to shops and restaurants in Gardiner when we didn't feel like cooking. The proximity to the Flying Pig is great if you plan to do rafting, horseback riding, fly fishing, etc. The house is beautifully laid out, and the loft area was great for the kids.

Nice home with a great view

Home sits above the Yellowstone river and has a great view of the river as well as the area around Yellowstone park. Wildlife is plentiful throughout the area. We saw elk, deer, buffalo, and river otters. The north entrance to the park was closed due to flooding so we were limited to Gardiner but it has a charm of it's own. Overall we had a great time.

Great Place

Grizzly Den is a nice place to stay! VRBO hidden fees are a bummer. Paid much more than was listed online. Don't mind paying for things, just tough to stomach the extras and fees after things have been booked up and payments have started. Why can't all of these things be listed up front?

Unique Getaway

Grizzly den was a very unique cabin. There were total of 7 adults ranging from the age of 47 to 77. The stairs are very hard to maneuver and to get luggage up there is very difficult. The place sleeps 10, however really only 4 adults privately. The loft and side room is really only made for children and are mattresses on the floor with very little head room. We did not use pull out couch because didn't want to crowd the common area. The 2 double beds are very high but provide step stools to get in. Mattresses are pretty firm. All this being said, the cabin was very well supplied and we made it work for our 3 night stay. Clean and place is short little walk to town. Parking very tight. We enjoyed our stay and the magnificent views. Don't really recommend for this place for such a large group of older adult couples, but for family with kids would be perfect! Saw elk in nearby town of Mammoth. Yellowstone is gorgeous! Host was very accommodating!
