A great place to stay!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic VRBO and we cannot say enough good things about it. The accommodations were outstanding - the home was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the location was perfect for exploring the town and Yellowstone NP. The owners, Natalie and Kevin were also extremely communicative and helpful, making the whole experience even better. We highly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a great place to stay!

Yellowstone comfort
Buffalo Trace is comfortable, well-appointed, and within minutes of the North entrance of Yellowstone. The owners were particularly helpful suggesting special spots in the park to view animals. At the end of our long days exploring the park, it was nice to cook in and relax with friends.

This house was perfect for our family trip. The location is walkable to the main area of Gardiner and so close to the north entrance of Yellowstone making it the perfect “home base”. Owners are easy to get in touch with. Would recommend without reservation.

Yellowstone Experience
The property was absolutely perfect for my family . We were so close to Yellowstone 's North entrance. There was virtually no traffic entering the park. When we drove to the West side of Yellowstone we were going against traffic and avoided the long lines of cars entering the park. What a blessing!! The town of Gardiner was quaint, charming and had a Western vibe. Delightful!!

Amazing Yellowstone Rental
The Buffalo Trace Retreat was the perfect home for our trip to Yellowstone! The house was absolutely beautiful and perfectly located so that we could enjoy every aspect of the park! At the house, we had lots of elk and mule deer visitors, which made the trip even more special! Natalie and Kevin were the perfect hosts and made our stay absolutely perfect!!

Excellent Location with Beautiful Views of YNP
Positive - Location is excellent, Views from sitting room and balcony upfront are astonishing. Has all kitchen appliances, had large washer and dryer. Negative - the listing advised that only soap would be provided but the soap provided was a small disc for 3 days stay. Ridiculous.

Family vacation
Home was very spacious with plenty of room for our six member family to be in. We were able to be together or have our separate space. Very close and convenient to Yellowstone Park which was a plus as we spent three days there. We had a comfortable home to stay in and a wonderful time in the park. Thanks!!

Great property at a great location
The property was absolutely beautiful. The house was right in the center of all the most beautiful views. It was perfect size in accommodating 7 people. The only issue I had, is there was only 6 towels for 7 people. The person getting the house ready should be aware of how many people will be staying and make accommodations for 7. I would absolutely stay again

Perfect location for North Entrance to Yellowstone
We really enjoyed this property from the beautiful views to the perfect in-town location. The house is within walking distance to the grocery store, yummy restaurants and the north entrance of yellowstone. The park is what brought us here and staying further away would have been difficult. Easy communication with owners and they let us check in a bit early which was nice.

We SO enjoyed our stay at Buffalo Trace. It was such a great location to enjoy YNP. We found the accommodations to be very comfortable and relaxing. The town of Gardiner was very quaint. Kevin and Natalie were very helpful when we had a mishap with door combination. 😳 oops. Would LOVE to come back someday 😀 Only hiccup….internet was subpar. But who comes here for the internet?
