Amazing home. Spacious and well stocked with everything you need to enjoy a family get away. Had a party of 12 from 18 to 76 and everyone had a wonderful time! Will book again for sure.
Loved our stay at Gibbons Gardens in West Yellowstone. Everything was clean and new and had more than enough room for our family of 7... it really was perfect. Theresa was so easy to work with and answered any questions we might have promptly. The convenience to the West gate of Yellowstone NP was also a plus. We would highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area.

The most comfortable and convenient stay for Yellowstone National Park!
The location is perfect to head into YellowstoneNP. The house is beautiful, VERY comfortable and has every amenity you could want. Also plenty of space for different activities (kids v. adults). The owners were very responsive, answering all our questions (which were very few as we received very clear and detailed instructions before and during our stay. We had a wonderful stay and I can't wait to come back!

Beautiful place, exceptional hosts
The Gibbon Meadow lodge was a great find in West Yellowstone. It had a lot of room and was very well stocked in the kitchen and the spaces available. It was very convenient to the park and close to everything in town. We felt very welcome and they added so many little touches to make our week of celebration memorable. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to booking again next time l'm in Yellowstone
We were a group of 10 adults and I can’t thank the owners enough for allowing us to stay in their home. It was spacious and well appointed. Everything was organized very well in the house and kitchen. The water pressure in the showers is phenomenal and the towels are luxurious I will rent this property again and highly recommend this home.
This house is roomy and the perfect space for our family. The kitchen was very well equipped with all convenient appliances! Linens and furnishings were quality and plentiful! Game area downstairs was good for our teen grands! Definitely pleased!!

Gibbon Meadows Lodge
Our family spent a week at Gibbon Meadows Lodge in West Yellowstone. We had an amazing time. This is a great launching point for visiting Yellowstone or for easy walks into town. The home itself is perfect for a large group. Every kitchen amenity you can imagine is available. The home is super clean and really well decorated with lots of fun wall hangings. The beds are comfortable, and the common rooms are huge and easily accomodated our group of 12. Our host Theresa was available to answer any questions. Highly recommend.
This place really has it all. You can tell that the owners put a lot of thought into the layout and amenities when they built the house, especially for snowmobilers. The heated garage had plenty of hooks and cubbies for all of our gear, as well as multiple boot dryers to dry everything off when we were done. The place was completely stocked with everything we needed and we were never left wishing we had something. Everything in the place was high end and it was perfect home base for the 10 guys we had snowmobiling. Would be a great setup for families as well. Theresa was fantastic with communication and made sure we felt welcome to reach out with any questions. I can't recommend this place enough.
Theresa and family,I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to extend my heartfelt gratitude for sharing your amazing house in Yellowstone with us. The beautiful appointment of the home and the six spacious bedrooms truly made our stay memorable and incredibly comfortable.The attention to detail, and the wide array of appliances, made us feel right at home. It's clear that a lot of thought and care went into making this house a special place, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Yellowstone.Thank you once again for your generosity and hospitality. We cherish the wonderful memories we made during our stay and look forward to the possibility of returning in the future.Warm regards,Margie and Family
We loved the home, and Theresa was a great host. Everything was so beautifully decorated and new. The kitchen had an enormous island, which was great for prepping food for our group. The long dining table had seats for 12! The open concept kitchen, dining area, and family room was very well designed, and perfect for our group. The kitchen was also very well stocked. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice; fluffy towels and great mattresses. Everyone in our group of 11 friends said they would definitely return in the future.
One thing to note, is that there are 6 bedrooms on three levels. The top level has four bedrooms, but just two of them have bathrooms inside them. This was a little bit of a surprise to us. The other king bedroom and the bunk room upstairs share an upstairs bathroom. On the entry level there is just one king bedroom with a bathroom, and an additional bathroom in the hall near the kitchen. On the downstairs level, there is just one king bedroom with a bathroom. There’s an additional bathroom on the bottom level as well next to an amazing living space with Yellowstone decor!
There was also a great welcome package for us when we arrived, and the home is just a mile from the entrance to West Yellowstone national Park. Great restaurants in town too. We especially enjoyed the Chop Shop. We had a great stay. Thank you!

Fantastic Trip
We had a fantastic snowmobiling trip. Close to the rental places and all the restaurants in town. Great trails. House was clean, setup well and supplied with everything we needed to make it an enjoyable hassle-free experience. Exactly as advertised.
Extremely well equipped household. We didn't need to bring anything. Very nicely located, a very short drive to Yellowstone or to town. Beautiful house.

Awesome Stay to Celebrate Our 40th Anniversary!
Our entire family joined us at this wonderful home for a week to help us celebrate our 40 years together. Our host, Theresa, has thought of everything that makes Gibbons Meadow Lodge the absolute best place for a Yellowstone vacation. So close to the west entrance to the park and right in the hub of the delightful town of West Yellowstone and its proximity to white water rafting and paddle boarding, horseback riding, and golf. We could not have had a better experience and have recommended the Lodge to family and friends.
Lovely home, very clean, bright, and spacious. The kitchen was great to use and very functional, and all the rooms were well laid out and attractive.Across the street is a cute coffee house/bakery for quick snacks and breakfasts. Everything in town is close by, with a grocery store only a few minutes away, and you can easily walk into the main street area for shopping, ice cream, dining, etc.

Perfect for our group of 8 adults!!
Our entire group was very pleased with this lodge! Many in the group said that it was the most well thought out house they had ever rented. Everything we needed was there. The kitchen/living/dining areas were perfect and we never felt like we were in each other's way. Having 2 laundry rooms was amazing for this group!!
The location could not be any better for this group as we went snowmobiling, rented a snow coach, and went out to dinner and everything was within an easy 5-7 minute drive.
We loved West Yellowstone and would not hesitate to secure this lodge again when we return!
Theresa is the best host I have ever worked with anywhere. I wish I could have met her as she was delightful to talk with about the house and the area. Every text or email was answered promptly. And I loved the fact that I had my security deposit back in my account before we arrived home!!
Thank you, Theresa for providing such a wonderful lodge for others to enjoy this beautiful area of our country!!!

Fantastic House
This place fantastic! One of the best accommodated rentals I've stayed in, and I've stayed in a lot. The home is very well cared for and is beautiful. The basement was so fun for our kids. Perfect amount of bathrooms and great sized bedrooms. It made our stay with 8 adults and 4 kids not feel crowded at all. Double laundry, 1st and 2nd floor made each group who needed to was clothes be able to do so. And not to mention so close to everything, and the Yellowstone west entrance. Theresa is also so helpful and kind! Highly recommend.
