Great Stay

Wonderful stay, great distance from Yellowstone. The house had everything we needed. Everything was very clean. We also enjoyed Marvin the Moose who would come visit the yard most night. It was so fun to sit on the porch and just watch Him. Would stay here again.

Great place!

This cabin was perfect for our visit to Yellowstone. It's 20 minutes from the west entrance and is located in a quiet area. It's bigger than it looks in the pictures and had plenty of room for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. It was clean, and the kitchen had all the pots/pans/gadgets we needed (though the toaster was pretty finicky). It reminded us a lot of our own cabin, so we felt right at home!

Great choice and value

The Cedar Rest is a great cabin for visiting the West Yellowstone Area. The cabin has everything a family needs to make your stay comfortable and the location is excellent. Easy access to the West Yellowstone park entrance and fishing the Henry's Fork, Madison, and Gallatin Rivers.

VRBO just a short drive from Yellowstone

We loved having a comfortable VRBO during our adventures in Yellowstone. We did a lot of hiking, so it was great for the kids to have their own beds! We even explored Idaho some and went horseback riding close to the VRBO. Great location and comfortable space!

Beautiful cabin. Quiet area. Saw moose the very 1st morning right along side of the cabin. Beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed. If we could have changed anything it would be that it would be closer to West Yellowstone. We would definitely stay there again

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this fabulous cabin surrounded by amazing landscapes and the beauty of nature. If you are looking for an escape from the stresses of everyday life, look no further!

West Yellowstone vaca

The house was really nice and perfectly met the needs of our group. My dad enjoyed the porch and we all appreciated the serene and quiet area. You could hear some highway noises but I slept with any open window and was not disturbed.We made a few meals at the house and found the kitchen and grill user friendly with the exception of a cheese grater. LOL Kudos to the owners for a pleasant stay.

West Yellowstone.

Property was perfect, the washer and dryer were a godsend for halfway through our trip. The cabin was perfect size and if there was something missing I’m not sure what. The only thing that might be improved was the lighting over the mirrors in the bathrooms., since there is no natural light in bathrooms. Distance from park wasn’t bad. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful cabin for your next adventure's home base.

The Cedar Rest cabin was the perfect place for our family's vacation getaway. It was our base camp for adventures in Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone. It was a little far from Grand Teton... But it was nice to stay at the same place for the week, rather than move a couple times on vacation. The kids enjoyed having their own space and the cabin was well stocked with anything you could need. The host was great to work with and very quick with communication. One of the best vacation rentals we've ever stayed in!

Childhood friend reunion

We were very happy with our stay as everything was just perfect… There was plenty of room for the 5 of us. It was very clean and cozy. Great instructions on how to get there and lock code entry was easy. We stayed for three nights, but wished we had many more…The beds were comfortable and the house was very well stocked. it was close enough to Yellowstone, but not too close. It was located in a great neighborhood that we would walk every morning and evening to wind down from our long days in Yellowstone. We were left with a nice goodie bag which was super thoughtful of our wonderful host. The dill pickle mustard was a big hit! Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Very Charming Cabin

Very charming cabin. Very clean. Any questions with the manager were effortless and answered quickly. The quiet location gave us the perfect solitude we were seeking after our long days exploring the local areas and parks. We rode sxs and explored the area, explored Yellowstone, Grand Tetons etc. West Yellowstonenwas a quick drive away. Also loved the options that Island Park offered us just down the road like grocery, fuel and restaurants. The beds are very comfy and shower heads are AMAZING. Great location if you are looking for a place to unwind out of the hustle and bustle. I would definitely stay again.

Perfect stay for Yellowstone

Great property! Great location about 20 minutes from West Yellowstone. Very well stocked kitchen. House was perfect for our family of 6. Good communication from the hosts. My girls would have liked a mirror in the guest room with two beds (helpful when you have teen girls)! The bath towels, while "fluffy", tended to have a slight "musty" smell when they got damp...only noticeable for those in our group sensitive to smells; not that they weren't clean, just something that happens to towels overtime/with lots of use and it's probably time for replacements. Only issue we had was we had to be on the road very early on our checkout day... according to the check out policy, to avoid an extra fee, all the towels had to be fully laundered. So that meant no one could shower in the morning and we had to use paper towels for brushing teeth, cleaning up in the kitchen etc. in the morning. But all in all, we loved the place and would most definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!
