Nice cabin on beautiful lake

Cabin was very nice and cozy. The property and surrounding lake were just beautiful. Our only problem was that we didn't stay longer. We used cabin as our hub to visit Yellowstone. Next time we are defiantly planning to stay longer so that we could use the kayaks and boat. Burt was great to work with.

The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to spice up your gourmet meals. Sit back and enjoy the beauty of nature all around the wrap around deck. The view of the lake is outstanding.

The cabin is very nice with everything you might need. Fishing was good, we caught a lot of trout and kept enough for a fish fry. Burt was very accommodating. The drive to Yellowstone and the Tetons was long but we knew this when we rented the cabin. Thanks Burt for a very relaxing week.

FIVE STAR SECLUDED CABIN STEPS FROM PRIVATE LAKE LOADED WITH FISH.

We are five star cabin folks. Burt's cabin has it all and more. Beautiful cabin in secluded spot several yards from a private relaxing lake plum full of large trout waiting to snatch up your bait. We stayed for two weeks watching bald eagles, ducks, pelicans, deer, humming birds and strolling the majestic lake at sunset. The area has countless adventures for those who desire exploring, hiking, breath taking scenery and nights out with good food near by. Best hidden vacation hideout in Idaho. Ten years and it's still our favorite relaxing cabin get away!!!

Supreme Five Star Lake Front Cabin Paradise in the North West!

We have reserved and checked out countless cabins in four surrounding states. Nothing comes close to this secluded cabin. Peaceful nature surroundings this lovely cabin.You near leave without catching yummy large fish. Secluded lake is great for evening rowing to watch the sunset. Host is A+ for all your needs. We have been celebrating our anniversary and vacations at Burt's Cabin for over seven years. Never gets boring to detox from everyday life with nature all around you. Burt is consistently up dating and improving all aspects of this five star "Best in the west cabin"!!!

Early October Deer hunting trip

Me and my hunting partner stayed for 5 days at Burt's cabin. This is an annual trip for us hunting in this area. Getting there was easy if you follow Burt's directions. We were amazed at the setting from the time we drove up. This was without a doubt the best place we have stayed over the last 5 years. The cabin had everything you might need except groceries of course. Internet was fast. We didn't watch tv but there are two tv's in the cabin. There was an abundance of wildlife on the lake. Ducks, geese, muskrat, cranes etc. The fishing was good and the sunsets were awesome. If we can get tags and the cabin is available we'll do it again next year. Awesome place! Thanks Burt!

Incredible time in an incredible home on the lake

First off Burt is a great man to work with. His amazing knowledge of the area and ideas of what to do were very helpful. The pictures he has online DO NOT do justice to his home. The home is very spacious, very well appointed and is a true home away from home. The property and area are amazingly beautiful. His point of land that juts into the lake is to die for. The water and fishing were EXCELLENT for all activities. My 20 yo daughter didn't watch TV, her phone, radio the entire time we were there, there was too much to do. Loved it, needed it, and truly deserved it. I promise we will be back. Also note to others. Try to go to any of the parks BEFORE schools get out for summer. No lines, no people, no waiting in traffic. The best advice we got our entire trip!

Our Fall oasis

This was our 8th year back to Burt's cabin. We absolutely love to stay there. It's quiet & peaceful. The fishing is fabulous & the scenery sitting by the lake is perfect. We love the ducks who fly in & this year we saw a cow moose right across the water. Burt is a really nice guy & always makes sure he communicates & accommodates his guests. The cabin is well stocked with everything you need & he makes fun improvements every year. Plenty of room to stretch out & relax! The laundry room is a bonus & we enjoy sitting on the porch. Especially for morning coffee & evening sunsets. The cabin is close to St. Anthony sand dunes to ride side by sides. So fun!! We have also emjoyed West Yellowstone, Island Park, Harriman State Park, Big Springs & Upper and Lower Mesa Falls over the years. Thanks again Burt for the wonderful stay. Take care & see ya next year. #9

Son’s 16th Birthday Trip

My son loves to fish and hunt and be in the great outdoors. He chose Yellowstone as his 16th birthday trip so I found this property that was perfect on a lake to take him and his best friend for four days. Yellowstone was about an hour drive away, which was not bad. The property was perfect, a great cabin with all the amenities and right on the lake! It is beautiful. It is definitely secluded and well off the beaten path. It’s about a 20 minute drive into the town of Ashton down mostly a dirt road. You don’t need four-wheel-drive but if you are in a smaller, low clearance car, the drive is not gonna work out well for you. Unfortunately the weather was not ideal for fishing but the cabin itself was lovely. Good communication with Burt the owner, and he lives on site to answer questions and attend to any issues you might have. It was a nice quiet stay only wish we could do it again with nicer weather.
