This 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 3000 sq. ft custom cabin/timber frame home luxuriously sleeps 8-10. Reclaimed lumber, true plaster, slate, hardwood flooring, large windows, and unique western touches ornate this vacation rental. Enjoy a cup of coffee or a gourmet meal on the expansive deck while soaking in the immense views of Yellowstone, specifically the steam from Mammoth Hot Springs. Let the sounds of Bear Creek soothe your soul.

Upon entering the lodge, our goal is for you to take a deep breath and let your stresses be free. It is time to truly relax in big sky country and leave technology and troubles behind.

Beautiful house near Yellowstone
The house is about 4-5 miles from Gardiner, Montana, which is at the northern entrance to Gardiner, so it's very quiet but still close enough to town so it's an easy drive to restaurants, the grocery store, etc. The house itself is great. It's a fabulous mix of rustic and fancy, with a great living room and kitchen and really nice bedrooms. For us (a family of four, mom and dad with two young adult kids), it was absolutely perfect and provided a great base for our visit to the park. And the views out the back windows and up the hill were just beautiful. Absolutely deserves five stars.

This house is rustic and cute. Pretty close to town but you still feel like you’re in the wilderness. We saw tons of elk on the drive there and deer from the backyard.

Absolutely great stay
We loved our time here. It was the perfect location to get to the park quickly, there was plenty of space for our family and the views were amazing. The only thing that was tricky was finding the location for the first time, but Lisa’s driving directions were so so helpful! Just an enjoyable experience all around!

Wonderful Property
Our family of five enjoyed our stay at Sunny Slope Lodge so much! It is the perfect spot to come home to after a day of hiking and wildlife watching. The location is secluded and scenic (great views!), yet 15 minutes from groceries/restaurants in Gardiner and from the North Entrance to Yellowstone. Lisa was super helpful and responsive, and the house is clean, bright and well appointed. Highly recommend!

Yellowstone Family Vacation
This cabin is perfect for a family vacation. We had 7 people including a 2 year old. Lots of room and an extremely well equipped kitchen that really helped reduce eating out costs. The location was great for easy access to Yellowstone Park, Yellowstone Hot Springs, horseback riding in Jardine and groceries in Gardiner. Very helpful host with local activities information. The entire family loved this cabin and vacation experience.

Unforgettable Group Getaway near Yellowstone!
Our group of 7 had an incredible stay at this VRBO property near Yellowstone National Park! The house was stunning with breathtaking views. Though the drive up in our Sprinter van was challenging, the location near the north entrance was ideal. The hosts were attentive, providing great recommendations. We highly recommend this property for an unforgettable group getaway near Yellowstone!

Mountain Paradise
Windows all around to enjoy the mountain wilderness while visiting, playing games, eating, or planning our day trips into Yellowstone. Lots of room to spread out for quiet time plus a vast kitchen well stocked with high quality cooking utensils, pots/pans, bowls, pyrex. The BBQ was stocked & ready for grilling! Bedrooms were comfy and bathrooms clean and well supplied. Lisa was quick to answer a few questions and evidence of her love for this great place is everywhere. Parking for our 3 cars was easy close to the house. Additional spots 100' away. Floor heat was welcome on cold mornings. WiFi allowed 2 of our group to make calls. The rest of us could only call from Gardiner down below. Highly recommended!

A special property during a historic time
We are coming to the end of an unforgettable family vacation. We traveled from Phoenix to Glacier National Park, stayed in rural towns and big cities, and had the privilege of experiencing some special properties from great hosts. For most of us, this would be at the top of our list of many properties. It is a beautiful home with thoughtful touches. It is rustic and charming in its feel, yet will provide the amenities needed at the end of a long day hiking and exploring. It is tucked away on a mountain, and our first drive to it left us in awe as we seemed to drive up to the clouds. Despite its remoteness, it is very close to the town of Gardiner and the North Entrance of Yellowstone. Unfortunately, we were also in the middle of the flood waters. The town of Gardiner is a lovely town with nice shops and good places to eat. After the flood, the character of the town was evident, as locals rose up to help each other (and the tourists) out. While we had short time in each rental, this is a place I could easily stay for a week. Our family highly recommends this home, and we cannot speak highly enough about Lisa, the host. She was kind, supportive and informative during a difficult time, and we would happily rent from her again.

Everything about it stay at sunnyslope was incredible. Amazing property! Driving to the lodge was a mini safari in its self. Loved the small personalized touches. Lisa's communication was great and helpful. My wife and 2 daughters had the best time and it was possible because the owners are thoughtful and have us a reduced price. It was worth any price.

Yellowstone without the crowds
This is a great authentic log lodge that is remote enough to be private and quiet yet still close enough to the park for day trips. It is a great place to avoid the busy and generic feel of Gardner. It has modern heating and lighting systems even though it is made of old timbers. We visited in winter, the house was toasty warm and quiet during below zero nights and high winds. The wood stove was welcome but not needed for heating due to the heated floors. We were a party of three couples and there was plenty of space. The three main bedrooms are spaced out and have their own bathrooms. The huge and bright great room and kitchen are a fantastic space to gather and hang out. There is a big loft that part of your group (i.e. kids) could use to socialize separately from the great room. If you are looking for a place to gather friends and family this it. The check in and reservations procedures worked fine, and the host contacted us shortly after arrival to make sure everything was OK. It was perfectly clean and organized. We are thinking of coming back again.

Perfect place for our family Yellowstone trip!
Sunny Slope Lodge was the perfect place for our family trip to Yellowstone! The lodge is quite comfortable and was large enough for all 10 of us. We enjoyed the rustic architecture and appreciated the recycling of materials in the construction. After hot (and crowded) days in Yellowstone, we especially welcomed the calm and quiet and airiness, the green and lower temperatures at the house. And we loved that we could look across to the Park, with views of Mammoth Hot Springs, Electric Peak, and Bunsen Peak. The window seat got a lot of use! Lisa is a great host: very helpful and welcoming and responding quickly to questions or concerns! The lodge is very convenient to Yellowstone – only 10-15 mins. to the North entrance (which is not as crowded as the West entrance). The drive into Gardiner is mostly on a dirt road, but apart from some (inevitable) washboard, the road is quite good. From Gardiner, it is only 5 miles to Mammoth Hot Springs. Being close to Gardiner meant that we were also close to whitewater rafting/floating tours, pizza, the Gardiner Market, etc. We have many happy memories of children playing in the yard, the horses next door, family dinners around the large table, sitting on the deck, both cooks and non-cooks gathering round the open kitchen. We would love to stay here again!

Wonderful log house in a very idyllic setting
We really enjoyed our stay. The log house was built and decorated with very sophisticated taste. Every window is a frame capturing fantastic views of the nature surrounding it. Sometimes we had to debate whether to take more time to enjoy the house or to head to the park. It's not an easy choice, :-）

Lovely Cabin in the Back Hills
This is a large spacious luxury cabin tucked in the hills behind Gardiner. It is quiet aside from the tranquil sounds of the creek and sounds of the night. Great kitchen and fabulous decks!! Make sure to bring food if you come later as it is remote. We loved it after so many people in Yellowstone. Great beds and such an open airy floor plan. Thank you so much.
