50th birthday/yoga retreat

This house was the perfect spot to get away with seven of my best friends for a yoga retreat at Chico Hot Springs. It was spacious with plenty of beds for everyone and has an awesome layout where we could all be together. I would definitely stay here again!

Lovely stay

I used this property for a staff retreat for our clinic staff. It allowed us to stay together and we were able to utilize the space to stay and learn together. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and dishes we needed for meals. We really enjoyed being close to Chico for the hot springs and a nice dinner.

Great getaway

Overall amazing trip! The home was beautiful and communication with the property manager was wonderful. Located in a gated community, with views, walking trails and a short walk to the neighborhood pond. Close enough to Yellowstone National Park and plenty of fishing access sites along the highway. Highly recommend!!!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! Close to Chico Hot Springs, Yellowstone, river float -- although the pond near the home is reason enough not to want to leave! Home has everything you need, and the view is fantastic.

Fall getaway/Birthday celebration

We had a fabulous time! The house was absolutely amazing! The area was absolutely beautiful! Everything we needed for our getaway and birthday celebration was at the house! Being so close to Chico Hot Springs was a huge bonus for us to relax at the pool and then come back to relax by the fireplace. We will for sure be back for all our future adventures in that area. The house was perfect and we all left with some amazing memories!

Beautiful, secluded property with fantastic views.

I've stayed at several houses in Paradise valley and this is a favorite. Quiet location on grassy plateau above Chico Hot Springs. House accommodated two families well. Large, functional kitchen for cooking and dining. Great patio for viewing sunset. Well stocked with cups, plates, tableware; etc; could use some updated cookware.

One word....Amazing!

Cowboy Lake lodge was such an amazing place to stay and call "home base" for our family's week vacation in Montana. There was plenty of space for the 10 of us. The home was clean and everything noted in the listing. The view of Emigrant Peak is unbelieveable. Nice neighborhood with nice neighbors who gave us awesome suggestions regarding things to do and see.

Stay in Montana

We were attending my Daughter's wedding at Chico Hot Springs. The house could not have been better equipped. Although we rented it over two years ago, the homeowners honored our agreement through Covid. We could not have been more satisified. Thanks!

Family Thanksgiving

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our second trip to Cowboy Lake Lodge was just as incredible as the first. Perfectly located near Chico Hot Springs, an easy drive to Yellowstone, Livingston and Bozeman. The house was the perfect setting for our family thanksgiving vacation. We hiked, visited the park, took a dip in the hot springs, had gourmet meals at Chico, enjoyed the Rocky Mountain Museum in Bozeman. But mostly we hung out at the house enjoying the beautiful view of snow capped Emigrant Peak with a fire in the fireplace and a hot toddy. House accomodated all eight of us very easily. We love this place and can't wait to return in July.

Montana Perfection!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the most amazing stay at Cowboy Lake Lodge. The home had spectacular views and was furnished with everything we needed for a fabulous family vacation. The entire Key Montana crew was amazing and Deena would reply to a question within .minutes. They gave great recommendations for restaurants- 2nd Street Bistro and Follow Yer Nose were 2 favorites. Chris from Yellowstone Guidelines gave us 2 spectacular days in the park. Kate Chrome catered some fabulous food. We ended our trip with floating down the Yellowstone River with Yellowstone Wooden Boat tours. Every minute exceeded our expectations!

Stunning views surround this luxurious vacation home

What a perfect home for a large group! More than enough room for gathering yet the layout still gave you privacy. The great room, which is open to the kitchen and dining room, couldn't have been set up more ideally for our rehearsal dinner for 50 people. The views from the patios were breathtaking, and much time was spent out there. Brooke always answered our questions in a timely fashion, which was really appreciated even though we never could get the Keurig coffee maker to work! The only reason we gave 4 instead of 5 stars was that there were some housekeeping issues. We only had about two squirts of shampoo in the master bathroom, not nearly enough for 2 people for a week. For the price of the house, I didn't think we should have had to go around to the other bathrooms to scrounge for more. All of the frying pans had dried food around the handles from previous guests, so we had to do a bit of cleaning before we could cook with them. That aside, I wouldn't hesitate to go back again and enjoy this stunning vacation home.

Cowboy Lake Lodge Never Dissapoints

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Once again our family had a wonderful time staying at the Cowboy Lake Lodge. We were able to entertain 25 friends and family from as far away as Belgium. Everyone had a fantastic time and commented on what a beautiful home this is and what a gorgeous setting it sits on. Since our last stay the owner bought a new BBQ pit, added a refrigerator in the garage and while we were there swapped out the coffee maker for a brand new one. The owner and property manager for this property are really trying to make your stay a memorable one. Thanks as always to Brooke and Deena at Turnkey Property Management for meeting our every need. They gave us fantastic advice on things like the Livingston Rodeo, Fourth if July Parade, fly fishing guides and we’re very responsive to some maintenance issues. First class operation all the way. I could go on but you can read my previous reviews if you’d like more. Our family is a huge fan of this property and can’t wait to return. We love Montana, paradise valley and Yellowstone National Park!!!
