The South Fork Cabin was clean, comfortable, and convenient. It had everything we needed, including bear spray and insect repellent. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was spacious. The master bathroom area was a bit awkward and small, but served its purpose.

House was great! Very clean and only 5ish minutes outside of west Yellowstone which kept us out of the hustle and bustle while still being close for dinner and supplies when needed. We had an issue with WiFi and they were very responsive with getting it fixed quickly! Would stay here again.

Enjoyed our time here

No complaints at all. With only two of us there was more than enough room. That was good because we had so much stuff for skiing to organize and dry out before repacking our back packs. Bed and bedding was good in master suite. Kitchen was good. Bathrooms were good.Location is only a few minutes from town- very handy. We would stay there again.

Wonderful

We had a great stay at South Fork cabin. The house was perfect. There was plenty of room for four adults and the location worked qell. We were only 5 miles out of town so we were close to grocery stores, restaurants and the park. We got to do all that planned and even had the excitement of a little snow. When you're from Florida that can be a treat. The only issue we had was a water pressure problem, but management was finally able to get the plumber to fix it. We would certainly recommend South Fork to anyone looking to stay in the area. I had left a short list of some items we felt maybe usful to other visitors.

Great location for Yellowstone

We enjoyed our stay at the property. It was very convenient to the West Yellowstone Entrance, fully stocked with all the little things you need when staying in a VRBO - laundry detergent, basic toiletries, spices, and even a cooler to use for those long days out exploring. We would definitely book this property again. My only caution would be, if you plan to work or need wifi, this may not be suitable. There is wifi, but it is very slow. That didn't bother us, since we were able to escape for a few days without the need for wifi.

Family Vacation

The property was close to main road, ten minutes from main town. Check in was easy. The cabin was SUPER clean, comfortable beds, cute decor, but slightly outdated. This cabin had a fully stocked kitchen. The master bath is a funky design with a tiny shower and tiny toilet area. If you are tall, this bathroom is not for you. There is NO air conditioning which the owner states but we were surprised to find that you are unable to open any windows. They are double windows with locks on them. When we entered the home, it was a bit stuffy so we tried to open a window and were unable to. The water system is obviously a well system and has very little water pressure. We were a family of five adults and you could only run one shower at a time and nothing else not even the bathroom sink or the water in shower would just trickle. The outdoor seating in yard has no appeal, lots of weeds in flower beds and bats living above garage vent. You can hear and see them flying in vent when outside.

Fabulous Forest Get Away in West Yellowstone!

I organized a “bucket list trip” for my in-laws, their friends, my husband, and I. This stop was **perfect** for accessing west Yellowstone and close to restaurants while also feeling like you were in the forest. Super spacious house for 6 adults and the host was wonderful. Thank you for the gift basket of huckleberry treats! 😋

The house was very clean and enjoyed the air conditioning during an unusually warm summer.

The house is nice and nicely decorated. however new pictures should be taken. Trees are overgrown and address hard to see late at night . We had trouble with the stability of the toilet in the hallway bathroom that didn’t get fixed during our three day stay. Mike responded during the initial complaint but nothing later as the plumber was 90 miles away. Otherwise the house is fine.

Great location!

This home is located just outside West Yellowstone. It’s close enough that it’s easy to go into town, yet far enough out that it’s quiet and peaceful. The inside of the home, was very comfortable, but the outside needs some attention. The yard and landscaping looks to be a little neglected. The listing indicated the fireplace would be available, yet it was locked up so we couldn’t use it. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend to others.
