About this property

Amazing Views of Yellowstone Park & River! A 1/2 mile from YNP’s North Entrance.

Enjoy The Sound of The Yellowstone River and The Sights of Yellowstone and the surrounding mountains from this beautifully remodeled holiday rental. Located just around the corner from The North Gate of Yellowstone in Gardiner, Montana, this rental was lovingly remodeled and decorated to be comfortable, welcoming and stylish.
We named this rental Water House Two because the original wooden Water Tower used to stand on this property until the 1960's and the original stone Pump House is situated just below on the river. During the remodel and revision of the original house and the property we found old receipts from Gardiner Residents water payments and buried water house gear and parts.
Located in a nice area, everything is within walking distance. The quaint mountain town of Gardiner, Montana (Population 800) is the original entrance to Yellowstone National Park and the only entrance open all year.
You can stroll to dinner, shopping and to The Headquarters of Yellowstone Forever for Ranger and Naturalist Talks. The Boiling River, popular for soaking, is just inside the park gate and Mammoth Hot Springs is located 15 minutes from the house and the new Yellowstone Hot Springs is just North of Town, about 15 minutes.
This is a 1,200sq/ft. Lower Unit with another rental above. The house was originally one and with the new remodel, it has been made into two separate units. Bedroom 1 has a queen size bed and Bedroom 2 has two twin beds. The Kitchen has a Pantry, Senseo Coffee Maker (we include the coffee for you), Toaster, Microwave, Mixing Bowls, Picnic Basket, cooking and eating utensils.The Living Room has a 55" SmartTV, large comfy couch and oversize chair. You can Log into Your Prime, Netflix, Disney+, etc.. Accounts. We already have DirecTV Service for The TV. The bathroom has double sinks and a hair dryer and towels for your convenience. Canned lighting, French Doors and new windows have been installed to make the rental bright and to bring in the surroundings. Each bedroom has a window or windows that open to the river.
Parking is on the street. Please do not park in front of Quimby Cabin next door.
River access is just around the block.
Children 5 years old and up only unless previously approved.
* CHECK IN IS BETWEEN 4PM AND 9PM UNLESS A LATER TIME HAS BEEN ARRANGED WITH OWNERS.
* * PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THIS IS A LOWER UNIT SO THERE MAY BE GUESTS UPSTAIRS AND YOU MAY BE ABLE TO HEAR FOOTSTEPS OR MOVEMENT ABOVE. We have done everything construction wise to damper noise.
We own Paradise Adventure Company and Yellowstone Raft Company. Please let us know if you are interested in any fun Activities during Your Stay.
We look forward to Hosting you!!

By far, the best part of this property was the proximity to the river and the North Entrance of Yellowstone.Interior was clean and comfortable. Bathroom is spacious, kitchen appliances were nice and dining area had enough space for our whole family.But again, the sound of the river through the open windows--that is what makes this property five star.

The view and location was awesome. A short walk will get you to the Yellowstone National Park sign and Roosevelt arch. Entering the park from this location, in the morning, was a breeze. There was no wait at 830am. It's also right in town so restaurants, bars and shopping is just minutes away. On our walks to and from the property we saw deer and elk. It was a really nice overall experience.

Beautiful property right on the Yellowstone River. We enjoyed the scenery and the area after long days in the park. Many local shops and food options within walking distance. We also enjoyed White water rafting, which we were also able to just walk right to from the rental. The house was well stocked and we appreciated the laundry available half way through a long road trip. My only suggestion would be a bit more clear check-in instructions for the proper gate entry for future guests.

Perfect location for Yellowstone. Great views of the river. Perfect place to come back to after a busy day. Full kitchen was great to have so we could prepare lunches for the park and then could make our own dinner when we came back. Don’t forget to sign up for whitewater rafting- was so much fun.

My husband and I came for a week getaway for our anniversary and it was an absolutely lovely stay. It was very clean and well stocked. The view of the river was beautiful. Our favorite part was how insanely close it is to the north entrance to Yellowstone. Although the town is small there are good places to eat and places to shop. There was also so much wildlife everywhere, which was so amazing. We hope to come back and stay here again soon.
