What a fantastic time we had!!! Family (2 sets of parents; 6 kids ages 2;4;6; 9;9;11) flew into BZN with brief stop in Livingston for groceries. Grandparents drove in from TX. Property was so spacious with everything we needed and yard games, ping pong, beanbag toss (didn’t get to use propane grill though). The neighbors weee very friendly too!!! Cowboy Lake hikes, fly fishing and swimming for kids (and grandmother), picnic table and sunrise and sunset colors and night stars were wonderful. Nearby Chico hot springs pools/restaurant was so fun in afternoons. Follow Yer Nose BBQ in nearby Emigrant rivals TX BBQ with great music!!! Hostess Deena was so available & patient & great helping us plan the entire trip (including recommending Julie’s wooden boat trip on the Yellowstone River while we were in Paradise Valley & travel suggestions for last 3 nts: Old Faithful Snow Lodge 2 nts; Mammoth Hot Springs lodge last night before family flying out). Bozeman Museum of the Rockies is not to be missed. We hope we can come back some day!!! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/33781b32-f51c-4d9b-b1ba-7ad9abb931e5-1754616984374.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jeff J.

The house was beautiful, location stunning, and team very easy to communicate with. I will be working with Key Montana Property Management next time I am in MT! ##### Andrew K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brandy V. Aug 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### One word....Amazing! Cowboy Lake lodge was such an amazing place to stay and call "home base" for our family's week vacation in Montana. There was plenty of space for the 10 of us. The home was clean and everything noted in the listing. The view of Emigrant Peak is unbelieveable. Nice neighborhood with nice neighbors who gave us awesome suggestions regarding things to do and see. ##### Brandy V.

Jun 2, 2024 #### Family Vacation to Livingston/Yellowstone Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first trip to Montana and we loved it! The house was amazing and the views were breath taking. There was 9 of us total and had more then enough room in the house. We spent our days at Yellowstone and evenings in the garage playing ping pong! Thank you for a great first trip to Montana, we will definitely be back! ##### Nicole H. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Wingate by Wyndham Great Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Wingate-By-Wyndham-Great-Falls.h8158.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Lion Hotel Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Red-Lion-Hotel-Kalispell.h40020.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Kalispell Glacier National Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Kalispell-Glacier-National-Park.h459725.Hotel-Information) > > [Silverwolf Log Chalet Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Silverwolf-Log-Chalet-Resort.h11771711.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Great Falls- Convention Center by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Great-Falls-Convention-Center.h19923.Hotel-Information) > > [Glacier International Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalispell-Hotels-Glacier-International-Lodge.h24304507.Hotel-Information) > > [TownePlace Suites by Marriott Whitefish Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-TownePlace-Suites-By-Marriott-Whitefish.h27015867.Hotel-Information) > > [My Place Hotel - Kalispell MT](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-My-Place-Hotel-Kalispell-MT.h35562202.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Kalispell.h41442.Hotel-Information) > > [O'Haire Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-OHaire-Motor-Inn.h893331.Hotel-Information) > > [Crystal Inn Hotel & Suites Great Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Crystal-Inn-Hotel-Suites-Great-Falls.h799560.Hotel-Information) > > [Grouse Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Grouse-Mountain-Lodge.h15527.Hotel-Information) > > [SpringHill Suites by Marriott Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-SpringHill-Suites-By-Marriott-Kalispell.h15273529.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Heritage-Inn.h29334830.Hotel-Information) > > [Whitefish Riverfront Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-The-Pine-Lodge-On-Whitefish-River.h8343327.Hotel-Information) > > [Kandahar Lodge at Whitefish Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Kandahar-Lodge-At-Whitefish-Mountain-Resort.h868703.Hotel-Information) > > [Homewood Suites by Hilton Kalispell, MT](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-Kalispell.h6289024.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Kalispell by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Kalispell.h1695930.Hotel-Information) > > [Meadow Lake Resort & Condos](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Meadow-Lake-Resort-Condos.h884895.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Riverfront Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Riverfront-Hotel-Suites.h531727.Hotel-Information) > > [The Great Falls Inn by Riversage](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-The-Great-Falls-Inn-By-Riversage.h40031.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilderness Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Wilderness-Club.h5236639.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kalispell.h1635509.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Flathead Lake Inn And Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Flathead-Lake-Inn-And-Suites.h1080587.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge by Wyndham Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Kalispell.h1682703.Hotel-Information) > > [Stage Coach Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/West-Yellowstone-Hotels-Stage-Coach-Inn.h171708.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Rocky Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Best-Western-Rocky-Mountain-Lodge.h2657281.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn Great Falls South](https://www.expedia.ca/Great-Falls-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Great-Falls.h14424.Hotel-Information) > > [Lodge at Whitefish Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels-Lodge-At-Whitefish-Lake.h1492496.Hotel-Information)
