Summer & Winter Paradise, Stunning Mountain Views & Close To Yellowstone Park!

Welcome to Yellowstone Sky Vacation Rental! Situated on 20 acres in the heart of Paradise Valley, Montana, our vacation home is open year-round and offers breathtaking 11,000 ft. mountain views of the Absaroka-Beartooth and Gallatin Mountain Ranges. Plentiful wildlife sightings including mule deer, whitetail deer, elk, fox, eagles, osprey, hawks, sandhill cranes and more. Oftentimes at night you can hear elk calling out in the upper elevations and if you love stargazing, you’ll be amazed at the beautiful nighttime sky! Sunrises and sunsets are not to be missed as they are colorful and inspiring.

This one-level home accommodates 1-6 guests. Whether you're a single person who loves lots of space, a couple or a small group, Yellowstone Sky Vacation Rental offers a private, peaceful and clean home base. Our hope is that you’ll be able to escape, rejuvenate, relax, explore, be adventurous and create many wonderful memories in this incredible area of Montana!

Paradise Valley during all four seasons is truly a dream-come-true for photographers (hobbyists & professionals), nature lovers, wildlife watchers, artists, writers and outdoor sports enthusiasts. Yellowstone National Park’s north entrance in Gardiner, MT is a GORGEOUS 40-minute scenic drive that follows the famed Yellowstone River and is the ONLY entrance that is open year-round into Yellowstone’s Northern Range where you can drive your own vehicle from Mammoth Hot Springs to Cooke City, MT during the winter months.

Whitewater rafting, scenic river floats, fly fishing, hiking, private Yellowstone Park tours, hot spring soaking, horseback riding, cross country skiing, winter wildlife viewing, and downhill skiing are some of the fun activities that are offered in this area. The town of Livingston is a 25-minute drive and offers many restaurants, shopping, museum, grocery stores, bars, gas stations, post office, hospital, pharmacy, park and more. There is a small grocery store and gas station in Emigrant, which is a 15-minute drive. The Bozeman-Yellowstone International Airport is a beautiful 60-minute drive…unless you stop to take photos along the way (which we’re sure you’ll want to do)!

Great Place to Stay
This property is everything it is advertised to be. The place was clean and well stocked with dishes, cookware, towels, etc. Everything you would need for an enjoyable stay was provided and everything worked well. The host responded quickly to any questions we had and went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that our stay was enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again if I revisited this area.

Perfect family vacation
We stayed on the property for one week with our family of 6. The property was a beautiful hour drive to Yellowstone. We were far enough to enjoy the peacefulness of the land but just 20-ish minutes away from town. The house itself was beautiful! The owners were absolutely lovely and easy to get in touch with. We appreciated all the information on hikes/things to do/places to eat. Cannot say enough nice things about the owners or the property. We would love to come back.

Yellowstone trip
We loved staying at this house. Mark and Jean were great hosts and responded promptly to questions. We enjoyed meeting them and also the goats and dog! The house has amazing views of the mountains and it was nice and quiet on the property. The house was large enough for everyone to be able to spread out and have their own space. We were there while it was very hot outside. The house doesn’t have central a/c, but did have two portable a/c’s. They were enough to keep the house comfortable and if you liked it a little cooler at night, there were fans to help move the air a little more. We didn’t cook a lot at the house, but the house had everything you need in the kitchen. There is a grill outside and we grilled dinner a couple nights. We usually packed picnic lunches to take with us into Yellowstone each day. We brought our own cooler, but I did notice one in a closet if you didn’t bring your own. We made a grocery run to Livingston one time and when we needed to resupply water or sandwich items, we usually stopped at the small Grocery store in Gardiner. We explored Yellowstone every day during our stay here. I will point out it is a fairly long ride from the property to Gardiner/Yellowstone. I think it was about 40-45 minutes. But we felt the positives of the property far outweighed the extra driving to get to the park. We would definitely stay here again.

Paradise Valley/ Yellowstone Vacation
We had the absolute best time! Mark and Jean are amazing hosts. We came from Florida for 10 days and stayed the first leg of our trip here. I honestly did not want to leave. There is so much to do right here. The home was comfortable even though it is very warm there right now. We kept the shades down on the windows during the day and the a/c units and fans were fine. We were on the road for much of the time, but the house was roomy and has everything you need, great coffee maker with kcup option, pans, plastic ware for storage, etc. Mark gave us many great ideas for dining and sight seeing. It’s about 50 minutes to Gardiner which is the north entrance of Yellowstone. We used this for the north and northeast sides of the park. We went back to Livingston twice, loved it there. I would absolutely return and stay longer next time.

Best of the best with views for days!
From the moment we walked thru the door, we felt ourselves relaxing. The house was bigger than what we really needed for the two of us. We ended up being able to spread out our stuff and do some laundry after driving for a few days. The house is extremely clean and well appointed with small touches to make us feel at home. Beautiful bedrooms, comfy sitting rooms, fluffy bath towels, and a kitchen that had everything we needed for our four night stay. Even games and books to keep us busy on our down day. And the views! Don’t forget your binoculars as we saw a herd of elk wandering over the ridge. The mule deer came by each morning and evening to feed nearby, so did some birds. (Quail maybe?) The owners live on the property so if we needed anything, the response was quick while giving us our privacy. Close by to Yellowstone National Park or wandering thru old downtown Bozeman or Livingston. So much to do in the area and it was nice to be in the middle of all of it!

Perfect launch pad for our Yellowstone adventures
The only gripe I have about our stay was that we didn't stay longer. First, the location is perfect. We were and hour from Bozeman airport, 20 minutes from Livingston for groceries and shopping, and about an hour from the north Yellowstone gate. The home is spacious, well-stocked, and quiet - perfect for our family of 4. The little touches were what I enjoyed the most. The plush towels (most VRBOs have cheap, scratchy towels). The welcome note. The nice knives (my wife LOVED those). The stack of brochures for Yellowstone and more. It added up to the perfect getaway adventure to enjoy the mountains. I only wish we had more time!

Jean and Mark are the best hosts!
My husband and I booked their lovely place for us and our parents for our week trip to Yellowstone. Upon arrival Jean came over and introduced herself and was so helpful even lending us coolers to use for the week! Their home is situated in such a peaceful area with gorgeous panoramic views! We were able to sit out on the deck and watch mule deer and their babies frolic. Mark was very knowledgeable about the areas and very helpful on recommendations for hikes and sites to see. We really enjoyed getting to meet these two, they are just as kind as could be! The home has so much helpful info and books for your many adventures, and anything else you could possibly need. We hated to leave! Thanks again for having us Georgians!!

Montana stay
Located in Paradise Valley the house was in a nicely secluded area within reasonable distance to Yellowstone National Park, hot springs, trailheads, fishing & some good restaurants. The town of Livingston was only 15 minutes down the road for shopping & supplies. The mountain ranges are a spectacular view which we would sit on the rear deck & enjoy each evening. The house was ideal for our crew of adults & was quite spacious, neat & clean. We had a chance to talk to Jean & Mark the owners who were friendly & accommodating. I would book this Vrbo in a heartbeat again if I was to return to Montana. Pete

The moment we arrived inside the home we felt cozy safe and welcomed ! Besides the amazing views of the mountains when we woke up the next morning, the location of this home felt centrally located well between north entrance of Yellowstone and airport. The spacious house had plenty of room for six of us and everyone had their own bed. The kitchen was filled with all the tools we needed to cook our meals each night. Jean and Mark interactions were warm and friendly. Definitely staying here again .
