Fabulous location and views

Great location, local town has much to offer, breathtaking views with large windows. Great time at Yellowstone with easy entry. Easy drive from Bozeman. Some privacy issues with deck and a path right next to some of those large windows of the house and people walking by can look directly into the home.

Gorgeous view and perfect location

Thoughtful details, incredible view of the river, everything one could need and a kind host. Sooo close to the entrance to Yellowstone but more enjoyable than staying in the park. We would definitely stay again!! Next time we would stay longer and enjoy the hot springs nearby, raft the river and add another hiking day in the park.

Perfect Yellowstone Stay

My husband and I stayed here while visiting the Northern loop of Yellowstone NP. It was immaculate and beautiful. We enjoyed the back balcony with a perfect view of the river. The location was perfect for both the entrance to the park as well as town restaurants and shops. Owner was great to work with and we would definitely stay there again!

It was a bit warm sleeping with no AC but opening the windows to let the cool mountain air in at night was helpful. Fans in each room were provided.

River Stay

The vrbo condo was awesome. The kitchen was well stocked, the condo was clean, plenty of fresh towels, the view/location on the Yellowstone River is awesome! Can't have a better view! There is one small market in the town of Gardiner which seems to have all of what you need. Not many good restaurants there though. Wonderland Cafe is the best, opens at 4:30 for dinner. show up at 4:30 get your name on the list or be seated then for an early dinner. You cannot call ahead for seating or reservations.

Perfect for Yellowstone

My family and I rented the Waterhouse just before Christmas, and we couldn’t be happier with our stay. The home is extremely comfortable and thoughtfully updated. We ate almost every meal in, and found the kitchen to be well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. Also, the kitchen, dining and living rooms flow well together and offer a great space for hanging out and relaxing. The view from this property is breathtaking. Our favorite time was after moonrise watching the moonlight shimmer on the Yellowstone River with all of the lights out. We were welcomed with a nice bottle of Prosecco, and Patrik was readily accessible for any questions. You simply cannot go wrong with the Waterhouse for a visit to the park any time of the year.

Hated the place (snark warning)

I asked my wife if I should give a horrible review so that no one would want to rent and we would have any week that we wanted. We were watching Elk every evening from the patio. We were walking distance to the Roosevelt arch. We were able to do day trips into the park with no issues. Patrik, the host, is extremely cordial and informative. Patrik's dogs are a hoot, especially the GSP. My wife was sitting on the corner of the patio closest to the river one evening Knitting and he came bounding over and launched himself into her lap like he was a toy dog. The house is fantastic! Do yourself a favor and close the shades during the day to keep the heat from the sun down. Do yourself a favor and keep all of the windows open at night so you can sleep to cool breezes and the sound of the river in the background. Gardiner is NOT a foodies mecca. If you are a food pack it in. There is a general store there but it's not like having Whole Paychek, I mean whole Foods, Wegman's or other decent grocery chains in the area. We were honestly very sad to leave the area.

Excellent location. Easy entrance to Yellowstone. Quick walk to restaurants. Excellent view of Yellowstone river. Elk and mule deer were around the condo and area—great to watch out the windows. Plenty of space for our family of 4. The main living area has an AC unit but there is not AC in the bedrooms. Fans are provided for bedrooms. We stayed during a heat wave so bedrooms were a little warm while sleeping. Unless you stay during a heat wave, opening the bedroom windows at night will keep the bedrooms cool for sleeping. Highly recommend this condo!

Wonderful location

The property was exactly as listed. It was spacious, comfortable, and has everything a traveler could need. We stayed for two nights while visiting north Yellowstone. We enjoyed the view, feeling as though we were still in nature. The location is also perfect to walk to somewhere to eat and the shops. But, you can easily stay in and cook beacuse the kitchen is ready with anything you made need (except food, although there were spices and condiments). The shower had great water pressure. My teens especially loved the owner's friendly dogs and looking at the cute chickens.
