About this house rental
Cowboy Lake is truly one of a kind - rustic and refined log lodge with 4 large bedrooms (sleeping up to 12 people), 5 baths, an entertainment style kitchen and living room, indoor gas fireplace, outdoor patio fireplace, 360 views with PRIVATE pond, walking and biking trails that lead to Chico Hot Springs Resort.
The Lodge sits on a hilltop in a private, gated neighborhood in the heart of Paradise Valley with privacy and views.
The home is an easy 30 minute drive to the North Entrance of Yellowstone National Park. You can also fish on the private trout pond within the gated community; go horseback riding, soak in mineral hot springs, or get a massage at Chico Hot Springs, less than 1 mile down the road. This is all done while enjoying the benefits of a PRIVATE vacation rental home that feels like your own private lodge, with 360 degrees of the most drool worthy mountain valley in the country.
Cowboy Lake Lodge is the perfect location for launching day trips to SW Montana rivers, trails and National Parks, family gatherings or a group retreat. Perfectly appointed, the home that comfortably sleeps 12 is 1st class in every way. There isn't an inch of the home that isn't refined, Montana, and luxurious. At Cowboy Lake you could stay at the house and just take in the views, or spend a week exploring the overwhelming amount of recreation opportunities out the back door (literally).
Paved quiet, gated neighborhood is perfect for families who bring bikes with them for kids or adults alike to ride, walk and roam freely and safely. Bring your own fly fishing gear for amazing trout fishing in the "lake" where you are guaranteed a bite! We do request no bait and catch and release only, please.

Our family had an AMAZING time at the Cowboy Lodge in Montana! We made so many wonderful cherished memories that we will hold in our hearts forever! I actually booked this property through Key Montana and they were a complete joy to work with and I look forward to working with them in the future! I don’t understand why anyone would book through VRBO or Home Away when you can get such personal and AMAZING service with Brooke and Deena at Key Montana! Thanks again ladies for a job well done!

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.

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.

Absolutely fantastic experience in the Paradise Valley! We had a multi-generational family vacation at the Cowboy Lake Lodge and loved every minute of it. The house is immaculate and the views of Emigrant Peak and the valley are amazing. Trout pond was so fun for the younger members of our group. Key Montanta team was incredibly helpful with recommendations for restaurants and activities. Overall, could not have been more pleased with our visit and will look to come again as soon as possible.

My family of 10 stayed at Cowboy Lake in June 2021. The house is beautiful and sits in a breathtaking valley. There is literally a mountain peak out the back door. The house is extremely well stocked and you have more than enough to make yourself feel at home while on vacation. Everyone from little to big enjoyed our stay. Deena and Brooke from Key Montana Properties are wonderful to work with. We had to reschedule our dates because of COVID and they made it so easy. I would recommend this house over and over again.

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!

Our family of 5 ( 3 teenage boys) had an amazing week staying at Cowboy Ranch Lodge! The home exceeded our expectations: space , location , cleanliness, comfort , view , activity , etc.. The boys fished on the pond just adjacent to the property and had good successs with some nice sized Rainbows , we brought mountain bikes and road the trails around the Buffalo Ranch area and stumbled surprisingly upon a “ old town “ movie set being constructed on the property and ventured up the emigrant creek gulch road which was really fun area to explore on bike. The trips into Yellowstone were very easy and we had two fun days in the park. We also used the recommendation from the property manager for our guided fishing and whitewater rafting ! The proximity to emigrant ( 5 mins) , Livingston. 25-30, and Yellowstone ( 35-40 mins to north entrance) were nearly perfect for what we had planned for our week.

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.

We found Cowboy Lake Lodge to be a beautiful home with spectacular views. It was very comfortable for our extended family to enjoy without crowding. We especially appreciated the two separate living rooms as the kids could watch movies while the adults enjoyed conversation. The location made it very convenient to partake in Chico Hot Springs and Yellowstone Park. Also, Livingston offered several fun stores for shopping. We had a wonderful stay and can't wait to return

We had a wonderful stay at the Cowboy Lake Lodge. The house was beautiful and offered spectacular views. It accommodated our extended family nicely with plenty of room for the kids to watch movies upstairs and the adults to relax downstairs. It's proximity to Chico Hot Springs was awesome as we were able to enjoy a soak every day and easily partake in the spa services. It also was convenient for enjoying several adventures in Yellowstone We enjoyed a marvelous stay and can't wait to return.

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!!!

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.
