About this cabin rental
Need to take a break? The "Old Hwy Cabin" is centrally located in the Last Chance area, within walking distance from the world-renowned fishing stream, "Henry’s Fork River". Also located 30 minutes from the West entrance to Yellowstone Park. You could spend days or weeks enjoying the surrounding mountains and valleys!
With year-round access this cabin was built in 2016 on a quiet road. The cabin has all the modern conveniences with the charm of the past. Our comfortable, but rustic cabin is your home away from home. Enjoy sitting out on the deck and watching the sunrise while you drink your morning coffee. Or grilling a steak on the BBQ in the evenings, or better yet cooking a hot dog and roasting marshmallows over the fire as you find the constellations in the sky. (But please practice fire safety! Fire pit for use when fire risk is not high or there is not a burn ban in effect.) Don’t forget to swing some shoes in a friendly game of horseshoes while you’re enjoying the great outdoors.
Our cabin is 1950 sq. ft. and has vaulted ceilings with Knotty Pine tongue and groove throughout giving it that rustic country feel. Hungry? After a day of adventure, come home to a kitchen that has everything you’ll need to create a home cooked meal for your family or friends, with seating for 10 available. The Living Room has a 58" SMART TV and a Blue-ray player (DVD’s are not provided), a sofa sleeper and a couch, a gas fireplace will help take the chill off at night while you enjoy a book or a family card game. A small selection of family games and books are available for your use. There is also WIFI access (password provided on-site). The Utility room has a washer and dryer for your use (please provide your own laundry soap) and ample hooks to hang wet items like bathing suits, towels, or snow pants. The Master bedroom is located off the kitchen and has a king size bed, with a TV. The Master Bathroom has a jetted tub to relax in after the days adventures. The upstairs loft is classified as the 4th bedroom with 3 twin size beds, one is a trundle bed. A perfect spot to play a quite game of chess. The 2 upstairs bedrooms have queen size beds ready for a good night’s rest after a day of hiking, fishing, and exploring. For children, we have toys, games and books as well as a portable crib, and high chair. Our Goal is to make sure our guests have the best experience possible, and to make our guests feel at home!

We really enjoyed our stay. This was a great home for our multiple family meet up. Plenty of room for everybody to have their own space but be together in one location.
Home was extremely clean and well set up. Kitchen had everything we needed. Great parking for multiple vehicles.
Was nice to be close enough to Yellowstone but yet far enough away so you got away from the craziness of Yellowstone for the night.
We visited the resort across the highway and enjoyed the music on Thursday night.
Thanks for the great place to stay!

Just what we wanted. Someplace quiet with everything that we needed. We were able to cook/bake our breakfast & return late afternoon to enjoy drinks & grill our supper then enjoy an evening of cribbage. Very clean, beds comfortable, use of washer/dryer, adequate dishes & cookware & basically a home away from home. Pam quickly responded to message regarding a leak & fixed in no time. Highly recommend this rental.

We absolutely loved staying in this home. There were 9 of us and we appreciated having 3 full bathrooms, a washer and dryer, and such a great kitchen to cook in. The beds were comfortable and the whole house was very clean. We also enjoyed the fire pit and the 4 roasting forks that were available for guests to use. The kitchen was well- stocked with small appliances: 2 griddles, rice cooker, crock pot, and toaster. There were also plenty of pans and cooking utensils. There was shampoo, conditioner, and body wash available in every bathroom and plenty of towels. We loved staying in this home and would love to return.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this location! The cabin was spotless and was easy to find. We used the fire pit to make s’mores with the grandkids. The only thing I could recommend is that another AC unit placed upstairs would really help during the hot months. We were thankful for the cool evenings and the oscillating fans.
I’d definitely stay here again and will be sure to recommend this place to our friends and family.

When we pulled to the property we immediately thought this is not the place, however it was. The front is completely free range grass in its native form the outside of the property has no mountainous look to it HOWEVER, once we entered the property we were pleasantly greeted with a spacious, clean, very mountainous looking interior. There was ample cookware, utensils, spices and basic kitchen necessities. Beds were comfortable and the A/C came in handy on the warmer days. Do not expect a grandiose view however it is located not far from the highway. Sidenote: If your traveling from afar plan to stop by a grocery store on the way to take advantage of reasonable prices. Once in this area the grocery prices are significantly higher.

We really enjoyed our time in Idaho. It was just 30 minutes to the West entrance of Yellowstone. The house was very comfortable and clean, and the neighborhood was quiet.

Check in process was easy and the home was thoroughly clean when we arrived. The home has everything you will need to enjoy your stay. Would stay at the property again with no hesitation.

Family Vacation
It was further away from Yellowstone than we thought. The cabin was gorgeous and quite. Curious as to why the grass wasn’t mowed. The ceiling fans needed cleaning. Over all it was great. Will recommend to friends and family.

Great summer cabin!
This was a great pick for our family! Close enough to the Mack’s inn area and good dining options nearby. This cabin was very clean and comfortable for our party of 8.
Thanks for providing games for the kids and the info binder was a great resource!

Loved our Stay!
We loved this cabin! It was exactly as described and was so comfortable and cozy. There were some great restaurants nearby and we had everything we needed to cook dinner when we wanted to. Communication with the owner was great. We contacted her with a minor issue and she responded immediately and fixed the issue right away. Beautiful place and convenient to Yellowstone and Mesa Falls.

Excellent Experience
This was a great home for us to stay! It was well appointed...especially the kitchen! We had a great time...and will (hopefully) be back. I appreciated the binder that included "all the things to know about the area". Super helpful.

Cozy Cabin
Very cozy house! Very clean and lots of room to spread out. About 1/4 mile from the river and close to some of the best fly fishing in the world. Would stay here again !

Great cabin with all the amenities you’ll need. Great location in a quiet area of town
Very simple checkin process. The lock box on the post was hard to find at night. It is also difficult to operate, I’d recommend a different lockbox near the door so it’s more noticeable. Thanks!

Yellowstone vacation
The house was perfect. Everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay until we had to cut it short two days ahead of time to fly home to Louisiana. We were hit hard from the hurricane Ida. Had a tree fall through the middle of our hone and flooded the whole house. Hoping we will make it back one day to complete our vacation. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us b

Amazing experience at this cabin!!
From the minute we walked into the cabin we were enthralled!! It was sparkling clean and had everything we needed. Our only regret was that we didn’t rent it for more days. We will definitely come back here again!

Beautiful and felt like home
This home was beautiful and had plenty of room for our family. The description was accurate and the cleanliness exceeded my expectations. We loved the design of this home so much, my husband drew up some plans so we can build this home when the kids are grown and we want something cozy for us but spacious for the kids to come visit with their own families some day!

This place was worth every dollar. I would definitely rent again and recommend it to anyone
The house was exactly what VRBO showed on their site. It was very clean when we showed up and were able to check in about 45 minutes early. Everything we needed was a short drive away, other then Walmart. However, I would definitely rent this home again. GREAT job goes out to the property manager.

Great House! Very comfortable!
We enjoyed this house a lot. The kitchen was well stocked and it was a good base for us as we visited Yellowstone. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for all of us. The one downside is the hot water heater must be small. Just plan your showers so you don’t all have to shower in the evening or in the morning. Other than that I can’t think of anything we were disappointed in.

This was the perfect place for us! We were visiting Yellowstone and this cute cabin was just awesome. It was clean, very comfortable beds, plenty of room for our family of 8. The decor was very fun and well done. The kitchen had everything we needed. My kids loved the jetted tub. Such a small little community so it was nice and quiet. Very easy to find. I would highly recommend staying here. We loved it!!
