Tranquil Private Home on the Yellowstone River

This tastefully furnished lodge looking decor, YELLOWSTONE RIVERVIEW RETREAT, is located only 3 miles north from Yellowstone National Park original entrance in Gardiner, Montana. Riverview Retreat is the perfect place for fishing the Yellowstone river for as the Yellowstone river flows thru the back yard, also great for photographers, wildlife enthusiasts, Weddings, or just sitting on the banks of the Yellowstone river and enjoying the tranquility of the river and Yellowstone park across the way.

This house sits on three acres, surrounded by lots of mature trees a huge yard with the back of yard being private, the back yard has a covered gazebo with rock fire place and a deck over the banks of the Yellowstone River, also apple and cherry trees. The house is a 2 bedroom with a king bed in master room, queen bed and bunk bed with bottom bunk a full and top bunk a single. 1 full bathroom with shower tub and 2 sinks with handicap bars in bathtub and at toliet. 1 1/2 bathroom with a toilet and sink at the back door easy to get to from the outside. Large living room with 54 inch TV with satellite. Dining room table sits 8 and a counter bar that sits 3. The kitchen is fully stocked with all amenities, coffee, tea, sugar, spices, flour, ketchup and lots more. I also stock tp, all soaps except hair. Washer and dryer with soap. And bear spray to take with you will your out hiking. The back yard has a deck with table and chairs with barbeque right off the back door. The large back yard is big enough to play soccer in and then the most enjoyable feature is the gazebo with deck over the river. We also have built a concrete dance floor off the gazebo for weddings. This house is a very comfy house and is far enough out of town to not hear all the noise but yet close enough if you need to run in to get some supplies.

At different times of the year you may see different wildlife in the yard such as mule deer, elk, grizzly and black bear and buffalo.

Yellowstone Dream Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was an ideal location for entering the park. We never had more than 2 cars ahead of us to get in the park. The couch and bed were comfortable and so relaxing after a long day in the park. The kitchen was well stocked with staples which made it so easy for simple meals at home. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property in a cute town
We loved this place. The cabin itself is comfortable. Outside there is a a great area to sit and watch the river. If I come back to this area this is the cabin I want to stay in. We are very happy we chose this property. Didn't want to leave.
