Hyalite House was just as shown in the pictures and stated in the description. The owner dropped by to say hello and ask us if we needed anything during our stay. It was a great place to call home at the end of a long day in Yellowstone National Park.We saw tons of wildlife, scenery and great hiking!Thank you for a great trip!

Relaxing Countryside Stay

Lovely location. We enjoyed seeing the beaver in the pond, as well as the Canada Geese. Very clean and stylish. Great ammenities. I would suggest being more specific on how to handle the garbage and sending the notice the night before instead of that morning. We were on the way to the airport and turned around to comply. Guests will not know about the Paradise Valley policy and will assume placing garbage in the cans on the deck is sufficient. AND the closest drop off location at Chico is NOT readily apparant. We drove several miles toward the airport until we spotted one.

Yellowstone House

First of all the property is everything and more that the listing shows. We drove out from our home in FL in our Airstream. We decided to rent a place to spread out for the week before continuing down the road. The owners were completely helpful in allowing us to park the trailer on property. We also had our Lab Daisy with us and she loved the property for multiple daily runs down to the river.. The house has everything you need. We've rented other properties and they always come up short. Not this one. We've stayed in Emigrant over the years and love the area. The fishing is spectacular and there's great food in range. The kitchen and grill were super well stocked.The park is just down the road and Livingston the same. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the Hyalite House.

I don’t even know where to start. This was by far the best vacation spot I have ever stayed at. The home is absolutely beautiful. The landscape is breathtaking and the house itself is beautiful, inside and out. The kitchen has most everything you would need (pots, pans, plates, glasses, silverware, kitchen utensils...). The master bathroom has kaundry and plenty of towels are supplied in both bathrooms. The furnishings are comfortable and homey. We were greeted each day with horses and deer and the views are unbeatable. If you are looking for a relaxing vacation spot, this is it.

Great Hyalite House Stay

A remote feel with nice views, yet a quick drive down the road to restaurants, entertainment, river take out, convenience store, etc. The house was a great space for our group of 6 adults and we enjoyed our breakfasts and dinners on the large deck. We appreciated that the house was stocked with basic condiments and spices and plenty of towels. Paradise Valley has so much to offer and we spent 2 beautiful days floating the Yellowstone River. A great family vacation at the Hyalite House!

Return to Paradise Valley

This home was perfect for our return to Paradise Valley. It was conveniently located right near all of our favorites spots, yet gave us a sense of privacy and solitude. We SO enjoyed exploring the property and using the mowing paths to walk to the river. An especially memorable moment was hearing the coyotes howl at night! In addition, this house had all the "extras" we might have needed including bear spray! We will definitely be staying here again in the future!

We loved everything about the property. It was very clean and had every bit that we needed. Sterling was helpful with any questions we had and was great to talk to. We loved sitting on the back porch and watching the wildlife with the mountains in the background. It’s in the perfect location l, close to Yellowstone but remote enough for the getaway feeling we were looking for. Highly recommend, would love to go back one day!

Beautiful well appointed home with stunning views

The location in regards to Emigrant could not be better- less than a minute to the restaurants, bar, gas station, bakery. 30 minutes to Yellowstone and 30 minutes to Livingston. The home is very well appointed and fireplaces were incredible with our 20 degree weather. View is spectacular!!! The only thing that was not a good for for us was that we wanted a secluded cabin on the Yellowstone river. It was more cabin then we needed because just 2 of us, but I splurged because looked perfect with convenient yet private location. I was surprised when I drive into a neighborhood with houses all around. We were looking for something very secluded, and from the photos it appears to be. Yes I google earthed it as much as I could from description. Also the river is very close, you walk through a very navigable pasture with a path, but it’s not in view. To be fair, it did not state it was in view though. Ppl Our main purpose was to fly fish, so the river was an important point. That being said, we ended up fishing in spring creeks because it was so cold and still ice on river, so didn’t matter. The ponds are beautiful and you can see the springs flowing up in them. The horses and deer added to the scenery! I am not trying to deter anyone from staying at this beautiful home, I just wish the photos would have shown the surrounding neighborhood clearly. For some people that is a plus, they do not like seclusion, for others it’s a deterrent - would just like to have been informed.

Beautiful home with roomy/comfortable accommodations!

We enjoyed our entire stay for an early MT Christmas with our extended family. The kitchen was completely equipped and well stocked with all the basics. The owners checked in with us when we checked in and when we left and offered to be in communication about any issues that might come up. The gas fireplace in the main room and the master bedroom added warmth and ambiance. I did not care for the extra paperwork/contract once we booked with VRBO nor the "$75 insurance coverage OR a $3000 lean against our credit card" that was required after we booked. The home was centrally located to lots of places including Yellowstone NP, hot springs, stores and more. There was lots of wildlife activity on the property and surrounding area which we love.
