This location makes for a great stay while visiting Yellowstone. Easy communication with host and an easy check-in process. Very clean and comfortable room. It was quiet so you could rest after a long day of hiking and adventuring. Would definitely stay again, if we are ever in the area.

This room was perfect for our 2 day stay. It had everything we needed. It is close to the Yellowstone entrance. It is clean, new, and the grounds are well kept. Maya communicated everything we needed ahead of time. The place we easy to find and I highly recommend it!

Just a quick overnight stay to be able to access Yellowstone for a second leg of a longer trip. This unit is super close to Yellowstone’s north gate and was perfect for our trip. Maya was a wonderful host, helpful and kind. She was onsite and helped me find my suite. The space was spotless and looked exactly like the photos. The bed was comfortable. I would recommend Maya’s space to others traveling through.

If anything, the pictures didn't show just how truly lovely the room is. Spacious bathroom, walk in shower with 2 shower heads, plenty of hot water, quality bath products provided. My grandson particularly loved the large TV with built in Roku and the excellent internet. He said it was the nicest place we stayed in so far one week into our month long road trip.

Great location. Quiet. Very clean nicely sized rooms. Easy parking. It is on a short gravel road so wouldn’t recommend for motorcycles but I would definitely stay again.

Very nice room for one or two people. Owner Maya very courteous, helpful, responds fast. A new clean room in a quiet area. This was a trip on my bucket list and I was leary about where to stay. Maya made it easier for me to answer all of my inquiries. I will definitely stay there again.
