This was a nice comfortable place to stay in West Yellowstone. The room was clean and extra care is taken to ensure guests are well taken care of. The only suggestion is that 2 coffee k cups for a 3 day stay for 2 adults isn't adequate. With no staff on site we couldn't obtain more. Small inconvenience not anything that would keep me from going back.

We are former vacation rental owners so that is the lens through which we evaluate lodgings. We stayed in Bucking Moose’s Loft #2. We were 2 people staying in a unit that sleeps 6. Our bed was clean and comfy. Though located on a busy street, not much sound disturbed us. It was great to have a well equipped kitchen (appliances, dishes, pans) where we could enjoy morning coffee, pack lunches for our day trips and cook dinners so we didn’t need to go out at the end of a busy, sometimes tiring, day. Bathroom fixtures were clean and it was nice to have a bathtub to soak in. Starter supplies of bottled water, coffee, dish soap etc were very helpful, and there is a market nearby to buy anything else you might need. SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER: It can be a challenge to schlep a suitcase filled with 6 days worth of clothes and misc. items up a steep stairwell, as there is no elevator. Though the furniture and bathroom fixtures were very clean and the wall decor was quite nice, the carpeting was stained, dirty, or both, which was a big disappointment. Dining chairs and eating utensils would have been a bit under par for a group of 6, though it worked for us. That said, Joseph, the management company’s rep that assisted us with our reservation and questions about Yellowstone prior to our arrival, was very helpful, courteous and professional. We also loved the unit’s proximity to the Park’s entrance, the Grizzly and Wolf Center and the shops in West Yellowstone.
