About this property

YELLOWSTONE CABIN - THE ELK VIEW CABIN at Yellowstone (River view)

  • The Elk View Cabin is located 4.5 miles from the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park and just a few hundred yards from the Yellowstone border at Gardiner, Montana. With spectacular views of the Yellowstone River, Sepluchar Mountain, Electric Peak and the sprawling Yellowstone valley our guests enjoy every aspect we have to offer. Throughout the year wildlife roams freely through the property as they migrate in and out of Yellowstone National Park. Our guests may see elk, bison or mule deer grazing just feet from the windows and patio. Grizzly and black bear may wander through as well.

    The Elk View Cabin offers a spacious kitchen and open floor plan with table seating for 6. Enjoy views of the valley and mountains as well as the Yellowstone river from the Kitchen, Dining Room and Living room. Our guests enjoy morning coffee on the patio watching the sunrise across the valley and relax with their favorite beverage in the evenings as the big Montana sky changes many colors and evolves into star-filled night sky.

We enjoyed the beautiful scenery surrounding this lodge, the convenient location to Gardiner for small food shopping and eating out, minutes away from the NP North entrance. The property offers comfort, lots of space, everything one may need while in vacation, and an abundance of local art displays throughout to entertain the visitors, making it unique.

Cabin was super clean and had a lot of helpful extras that made the experience even better. We were able to play cards while looking at the breathtaking view. It was like we were out of the city but still had the accommodations (like fast WiFi) to make sure we were set up for success in Yellowstone. Highly recommend and would love to stay here again.

Beautiful and clean cabin with all the amenities we could need! Unfortunately we didn't see any wildlife in the fields outside our big front windows, but wildlife abounded in the surrounding areas. Luckily we're used to gravel roads, because there's a 4-mile gravel to access the cabin. The only inconvenience was having to drive our trash to a dumpster on our way out of town when the car was all packed up!

Beautiful cabin

The cabin was awesome! It felt like you were at home and could tip back, relax and enjoy the wildlife. The mountains in the back were gorgeous and watching the elk in the fields was fun. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay at this cabin. It was very clean, instructions for stay, check-in and check-out were precise. The Elk came toVisit on our first and last day which was an added bonus. The four mile drive in on the county maintained road was a little bumpy but my Rav 4 Hybrid handled it great. I would highly recommend this location for your Yellowstone visit.

Super comfortable place to stay for two couples it worked out well each having our own bathrooms.

Very nice place to stay very comfortable and at home feeling. It is a long gravel road that leads you to the house that could use some attention with gravel being leveled out better but overall it was a great place to stay stay again.

This cabin was absolutely amazing and spectacular. The views were absolutely breath taking. It wasn’t in the hustle and bustle of town, yet it was certainly close enough if we needed to grab some groceries or eat out.

A great location!

Wonderful location for the north entrance of Yellowstone. Very well stocked but we did need to borrow a better corkscrew from another cabin for a stubborn cork. Liked the proximity to town and the hot springs very much. Comfortable beds and loved having two bathrooms. Good views and we saw elk on the grounds in the afternoons.

It was an incredible stay. Everything was perfect. The view of the stars at night, being so close to Yellowstone. Everyday was an adventure. My only regret was not planning to stay a little longer. Highly recommend!

Excellent location to the North Entrance to Yellowstone

Good accommodations. Very clean. Conveniently located to Noth entrance of Yellowstone. It is on a gravel road about 5 miles from the entrance. Kitchen was well stocked with necessities. I would recommend it as a place to say when visiting the North end of Yellowstone.

Gravel road cabin

This cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable stay! It was decorated with an abundance of Indian, wolves, and horses decor. The location was close to the North Yellowstone Entrance which was great except for the 5 mile long gravel road to the cabin. We enjoyed seeing a lot of elk around that area!

Great views

This cabin was perfect for our stay while visiting Yellowstone National Park. Plenty of room for us (5 adults and an infant). Comfy and roomy, great furnishings and a nicely equipped kitchen! Appreciated that the benches on the little patio transform to a picnic table and an electric grill was provided. Great binder full of information about the area too. Loved watching elk from our living room windows!

Beautiful location! Saw elk & antelope every evening

Very clean and had anything you could want. The decorations were a little busy for my taste. I was disappointed in the grill-its a George Foreman on stilts and you have the haul the garbage like 10minutes. After a family of 6 stays for 5 days, you don't anticipate leaving room in your vehichle to haul trash that far. Overall, a wonderful place! Eat at Wonderland Cafe in Gardiner.

Excellent for wildlife viewing

The home is well situated for wildlife viewing and we appreciated that the owners provided binoculars for viewing. The gravel road that leads to the home can be a little rough, and can be traversed with a sedan, but I would recommend a 4WD in inclemate weather. The town of Gardnier was a little crowded due a rodeo in town. There are limited dining options so this created a bit of problem, but highly recommend the restaurant at the sage lodge up the road in Pray.

Cabin was Very Nice, Clean and well-equipped for a stay. We were Very Disappointed at the view. From the porch we faced a large storage building and the river view was pretty none existent-a long distance away and only a peek of water between a couple trees.

We truly enjoyed our 5 night stay at the Elk View cabin. The view from the large picture window is breathtaking and we enjoyed dinner each night on the patio. The added loveseat and two chairs on the patio made a cozy spot for morning coffee as we navigated our plans to Yellowstone for the day. The kitchen is fully equipped with all that we needed to make our dinners. The shower had amazing water pressure- one of the best showers we’ve had, especially after hiking all day. There is so much interesting art work to look at that we admired different pieces each day. The location of the cabin is perfect for exploring Gardiner and Yellowstone. We went on many hikes but especially enjoyed a hike right out our front door up into the foothills. We found our own hot spring nearby to explore and loved the little restaurants in Gardiner for burgers and beer. We would recommend this place to our friends!
