Cozy cabin!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The cabin was rustic on the outside with modern amenities on the inside. Very inviting and cozy at the end of a long day in YNP! The rural area is just what we love with Mountain View’s out of every window. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

our stay
Beautiful setting, and cottage. Could not have asked for more. Will stay there on our next trip. The owners were wonderful as was the local residents that we were able to chat with at the local bar. Our daily and evening visitor "Grizz" made us feel at home as did Julie and Dave. Would highly recommend this beautiful property to visit. Thank you again

A beautiful little spot
We really enjoyed our time at Julie's cabin. We went to Yellowstone several days, and although it's a bit of a drive, it's a pretty drive. Griz and Junie Bug are so sweet, and we enjoyed watching the horses too.
Montana is such a beautiful state. We also enjoyed the cooler weather.
Hopefully, we can come back one day.

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was perfect for my son and I and it had "home comfort" written all over it! The best part of the cabin though was Griz! If you wonder who Griz is, rent this cabin! You won't regret it!

Cabin Getaway
The stay could not have gone better. The location was quiet, peaceful and close to Montana history spots. Virginia City was a highlight and we would recommend the plays at the playhouse. My wife wanted to sneak Griz the ranch dog into her baggage, but a dog the size of a small horse would have been too conspicuous!
