“A Yellowstone Park View” lived up to all of our expectations. It was super clean when we arrived and we were surprised at the size of the rooms, especially the kitchen, dining and living rooms. The beds were comfortable and the place was very quiet as it was located a short distance off the main street. A lot of extras are provided in the kitchen in addition to the regular appliances.
The Wi-fi reception is problem free. There is a BBQ available just outside the door and a seating area with a spectacular view of the mountain range. The grounds are well maintained and parking is close. The location is within walking distance of several restaurants, many of which serve top notch food. Most of the food trucks were shut down in mid-September, and wait times were long for evening dining.
We spoke to Tom, the owner, several times during our four day stay and he is very knowledgeable about the region, having lived there for many years. He has a great sense of humor and provided some useful tips for sightseeing in areas outside of the park. He, like everyone we met in Gardiner was friendly and always willing to help with advice. We also enjoyed his two very friendly young golden labs.
In summary, this is a great place to stay for the local atmosphere and access to Yellowstone Park. Definitely worth a return visit or two!
