Elk Haven House - Less than 5 min from Yellowstone Park! Beautiful views!

Beautiful and quiet 3 bedroom 2 bath home that comfortably sleeps 6, and is located less than 5 minutes from Yellowstone Park! Also, it’s a short walk from the property to access Gardiner’s downtown restaurants and shops! The property offers a perfect combination for guests; a quiet location away from the summer crowds joined with a close proximity to Yellowstone, Gardiner proper, and hiking trails. Wildlife is common in the area and neighborhood, so don't be surprised if you see elk, bison, deer, a fox, or bighorn sheep on or near the property.

The house has a 4 zone mini split AC/heat pump system to help keep a comfortable indoor temperature year round. The living room and each bedroom have their own dedicated AC/Heat pump wall mounted mini split unit. This system allows guests to individually set their desired bedroom and living room temperatures. Relax and sleep in comfort all year long! On those extra cold winter nights, there is a kitchen heater, along with baseboard heaters in the living room and bedrooms to provide extra warmth if needed.

Luxury vinyl plank flooring installed throughout the main level of the house. The house has a fully stocked kitchen including an electric range/oven, coffee maker, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, etc. Downstairs there is a washer and dryer for guests, along with a card table, tv, and dvd player.

After a long day in the park viewing wildlife or hiking, relax in the sauna or hot tub under the stars. Large backyard patio with chairs, table, fire pit, picnic bench, and bbq to help relax and enjoy the outdoors. Space X Starlink satellite WIFI is provided in addition to a living room 65" Samsung smart TV that is connected to a DVD/Blu-ray player.

Come visit Yellowstone and relax in the comfort of a home away from your home! Plenty of local activities including wildlife viewing, hiking, rafting, fishing, hot springs, horseback riding, etc.

We enjoyed our short stay and I appreciate the owners allowing us to shorten our stay. The house was clean and well maintained. Everything you could need was there. We did not use any of the amenities, but everything looked in order. The owner was easy to work with and quick to reply. Check in was simple. The home is located in a beautiful area and super easy to get to. Super close to the north entrance of Yellowstone!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely home. We saw elk and rabbits in the yard most days along with lovely Mountain View. Gardiner was a great home base to explore the park. It was a fun little town! The home was clean and spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend this property.

This home was a delight to stay in. Great attention was given to making sure any thing needed was there. We spent our days in Yellowstone and then came home to comfortable furniture to rest and be ready for tomorrow. The host was great! Thanks!

Spacious well equipped house with lovely views. Close enough to the amenities in Gardiner but far way enough to be peaceful. The hot tub was an added bonus. Perfect location for Yellowstone with Lamar valley, Mammoth, Canyon village all within easy reach.

Our family absolutely loved this house. From the elk in the front yard to the sauna and hot tub in the back, there was something for everyone. We appreciated the well supplied kitchen and toiletries, as well as the abundance of games and movies. Super well thought out and excellent communication. Gardiner is a lovely town and the proximity to the north gate can’t be beat.

Cozy, clean, and fun! Everything a family getaway should be. Days in the park evenings spent around the table eating, playing games, watching movies, reminiscing over the day in the sauna and hot tub. Simply ideal!

Elkhaven is a well kept, well stocked home in a great area close to the north entrance. Mark was very responsive to any questions we had. The whole rental process was a breeze!! Our family had a great time enjoying Yellowstone and the Tetons. We would definately rent Elkhaven again for any future visits !

A perfect location for taking day trips into Yellowstone. It’s very close to the park entrance. The house was clean and had everything we needed and almost every night when we saw elk in the yard or across the street, including the babies.

Great stay close enough to everything, but far enough to be quiet. The hosts had great suggestions for us on what to do we had a blast! Their house is beautiful pictures don’t do it justice ! Thanks again. -vaughn and Jordan

We have stayed in a lot of VRBO homes and this was the very best. It was just as described and was literally, home away from home. The little town of Gardiner had everything we needed. The north entrance to Yellowstone National Park and all of its wonder and beauty was less than 5 minutes away! This was our best vacation ever! Thank you!!

We loved Elk Haven- great location for us- we came to spend time in the Park. Our college age kids joined us and your house gave us the perfect amount of space for everyone to have privacy. We loved the hot tub ( next time we will enjoy the sauna too!) Our son especially loved all the photos- he is a budding photographer! Thanks again - we will be back!

Elk Haven lived up to its name with elk in and around the house daily. If you sleep with the windows open you’ll be serenaded by bull elk bugles. Close to Yellowstone, you’ll have a great base camp for your vacation.
