Overall it was a great stay. I did have to ask for items from the front desk throughout the week (toilet paper, coffee, garbage bags, a broom to sweep our kitchen) We had to take our garbage to the dumpster ourself. And our room/building key would randomly stop working and we would have to have it reset. All a little frustrating for the proce we paid to stay. Not enough to stop us from staying there again.
I’ve been going to West Yellowstone for 25 years. Almost all of the hotels there are dated and old or external entrance motels. This property was nice and new. It would remind you of a very nice mid-tier Marriott or Hilton owned property with rustic decor. Nothing too fancy but it was the nicest place for 259$ total on September 6. The other mediocre hotels in West Yellowstone like holiday inn or Grey wolf were all 399 plus tax and fees. This place blew them out of the water. It’s a brand new property. 18 miles from town in Island Park so it you are looking to be in the center or town you are not, which was nice to me. The staff was great and the continental breakfast was good. Definitely a high recommendation for this area especially with no kids to entertain.

Breakfast was terrible. Ice machine broken so had to buy ice from them daily. For the cost of the stay I was definitely expecting more. Next time it’ll be an air b&b.
Well kept property with many amenities, friendly staff & made for a pleasant stay

Stayed in the cabin and it was amazing. The only downfall is that the AC wasn’t working but the front desk girls were very helpful and willing to put a work order in to get it fix asap. Otherwise it was a great stay.
The bed was comfortable, bedding was great. We loved the kitchenette and the personal hot tub on the porch. The continental breakfast was good. We will definitely come and stay again.
Everything about the room was amazing! But the issue was with breakfast area. If you plan to stay here, bring a pack of filtered water. There is none in the vending machines. You can only use the filtered water they have during breakfast and can only fill up their small little cup with it.
