About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Yellowstone..... Outside your front door!

Yellowstone Red Barn Retreat is located on the hillside overlooking the Yellowstone River and minutes from Yellowstone National Park.
WINTER is magical in the Park
and snowcoach's depart daily from Gardiner. First stop is Mammoth Hot Springs with Fort Yellowstone's historic buildings and the iconic Mammoth Terraces and Hot Springs.
Next stop, Old Faithful.... shooting hundreds of feet into blue Big Sky.
Historic Old Faithful Inn and it's fireplace are a work of art - literally! Sit and enjoy hot cocoa, an Old Fashion before enjoying the 5 Star Dining experience.
SPRING blossoms and Yellowstone awakens! Bison, elk, deer, eagles and more give birth giving visitors memories of a lifetime. In the pasture in front of the Retreat you may see elk and their nursing calves or hear wolves teaching their pups to howl.
SUMMER at last! Sightseeing, fishing, rafting, horseback riding...so much to do. Hundreds of hiking trails wander through fields of wildflowers, streams, lakes and waterfalls..... even a petrified forest.
Autumn's splendor unfolds. Elk are bugeling and their annual rut is a memory to cherish. Bears are active preparing for winter. Come and enjoy Yellowstone's AUTUMN colors and our lowest rates.
Yellowstone Red Barn Retreat is a comfy and beautiful place to relax after a day in the Park. The Great Room, dining area and wet bar overlook the landscaped yard and Cinnabar Mountain. Outside you can sit enjoy elk herds across the Yellowstone River and Yankee Jim Canyon. The peace and quiet assure you a wonderful night rest, ready for another day of Yellowstone adventures!

Great place pretty close to the north entrance. It got warm in the house but we were able to open the windows and it was nice. Great view of the mountains and quiet even though the highway was close. We would definitely stay again! The check in process and communication was great.

The red barn had everything we needed for a great stay! One of our best experiences was hiking to the OTO ranch, less than a half mile from the barn….a much bigger elk herd than what we saw in Yellowstone, and the ranch itself was very interesting.

Absolutely wonderful! At night you could hear the river and the elk across the way along with the horses! Far enough from town but only a 15 minute drive to the Roosevelt Arch! Great dining in the area and very convenient. I would like to have had access to the top balcony, but it was being remodeled. Otherwise the house was top-notch!

Wonderful visit, excellent location

As a family of 2 adults and 4 kids we had a great visit at this property. There was plenty of space for everyone and the location of being near the North entrance of Yellowstone but still having the privacy of open country was perfect.

Yellowstone Vista

Fabulous rental! Close to the Park and beautifully decorated. Hosts are nice people to engage with if you choose, but extremely respectful of your privacy as they live close to the cabin. Stayed here several times and always look forward to returning!

Spacious, secluded home, comfortable beds, convenient to Yellowstone

We greatly enjoyed our stay here. The main room was comfortable for our family of four. I liked the remote location where it felt like we were homesteaders on a secluded ranch, but with the convenience of only being 10 minutes from Gardiner and Yellowstone.
