We are former vacation rental owners so that is the lens through which we evaluate lodgings. We stayed in Bucking Moose’s Loft #2. We were 2 people staying in a unit that sleeps 6. Our bed was clean and comfy. Though located on a busy street, not much sound disturbed us. It was great to have a well equipped kitchen (appliances, dishes, pans) where we could enjoy morning coffee, pack lunches for our day trips and cook dinners so we didn’t need to go out at the end of a busy, sometimes tiring, day. Bathroom fixtures were clean and it was nice to have a bathtub to soak in. Starter supplies of bottled water, coffee, dish soap etc were very helpful, and there is a market nearby to buy anything else you might need. SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER: It can be a challenge to schlep a suitcase filled with 6 days worth of clothes and misc. items up a steep stairwell, as there is no elevator. Though the furniture and bathroom fixtures were very clean and the wall decor was quite nice, the carpeting was stained, dirty, or both, which was a big disappointment. Dining chairs and eating utensils would have been a bit under par for a group of 6, though it worked for us. That said, Joseph, the management company’s rep that assisted us with our reservation and questions about Yellowstone prior to our arrival, was very helpful, courteous and professional. We also loved the unit’s proximity to the Park’s entrance, the Grizzly and Wolf Center and the shops in West Yellowstone.

Super cute property in a perfect location. Walking distance from food and shopping. Check in was really easy and management went above and beyond to make us comfortable when we requested an air conditioner after they had removed then the the season. Would def stay there again!

We stayed in Lynx 7. These are quaint and cute little cabins. Think shabby chic. Our unit needs a little TLC ( specifically a broken toilet seat) and some other tweaks, but nothing that would prevent us from booking again. Very walkable to everything and a 1 minute drive to the West entrance of Yellowstone. Overall, great stay!

We loved our personal entrance, the porch swing out front, the comfy bed and the cleanliness of the room! Room service was prompt every day! My only suggestion would be to replace the mirror as it is too cloudy. Otherwise, we would come back again!
