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.

What's nearby

  • The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone offers different dramatic looks and moods dependent on the time of day. The falls are luminous in the morning. In the evening when this photo was taken, the canyon takes on a soft, almost painterly light. If you can, make a visit right after sunrise and return for the sunset.

  • We visited this location but ideally needed to be there in the afternoon as the sun was on the "wrong" side of the arch. I used a wide lens to capture the arch and didn't attempt to correct the distortion as I felt it added to the picture (for me anyway). It took a long time to get this without hoardes of people in the shot.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Definitely Elk view place

We arrived at the cabin and parking and checkin were easy. The cabin was very nice with nice views. Sleeping was a little rough the first night because all through the night we kept hearing Elk calls. But when we woke up there were Elk all around the cabin front and back. One elk walked between our car and the back window.That was so cool and well worth the rough night. The other days the elk never returned so we were very lucky that first night. You do travel a gravel road to get to Gardiner but the view and animals made it worth the dirty car. We would stay there again. The only thing that was missing was a fly swatter.

Lovely stay!!!

Stayed here with my husband and my 2 boys (15 & 16 yr old) and the space was perfect for our stay. Beds were comfy, which my boys also appreciated a large bed for each of them since they are both over 6ft. There was quite a a bit of artwork throughout the home but we quite enjoyed looking all of it. It was also great that they had some bear spray we could take on our hikes and a pair of binoculars to borrow when trying to look for more timid animals in the park. The only complaint we had (which is in no way owner's fault or even in their control) was that the road is a dirt road with a lot of teeth shaking road chatter. But we made due with going slow in our rented equinox. Bigger tired vehicles or better all terrain vehicles would have an easier time on the dirt road. Otherwise just go slow and find the best side to drive on as you go. The north entrance is very close, just again slow going bc of the dirt road. Everything was easy peasy when getting into the home and checking out. Their info binder had tons of great and helpful info to read as well. Great place with beautiful views! 😁
