Canyon Lodge & Cabins - Inside the Park

Canyon Lodge & Cabins - Inside the Park

10/10 Excellent
"Location was perfect for accessing the park. Keep in mind, staying in Yellowstone is the absolute best option although it's more expensive... WELL WORTH IT... it's a big park; staying outside the park would have been frustrating and would have wasted a lot of time. If you stay here or anywhere in the park, there are no televisions in the room, no cell reception, and very limited or no internet access. I really liked this as it enhanced the focus and peacefulness of the beauty of Yellowstone without distractions.... some technology addicts will find this triggering... I say, suck it up and try it, you'll like it! The amenities are pretty good at this location and has everything you'll need... stores, food, gifts, etc. are all within a short walk."

Lake Yellowstone Hotel and Cabins

10/10 Excellent
"Loved this stay! We stayed in a cabin right by the hotel and it was perfect! We loved sitting outside to stargaze. You will get a notification when dinner reservations can be made - make sure to do so! We made a reservation as soon as it was available but overheard some panicked visitors around dinner time who weren’t sure how to get table and were having to ask the front desk for last minute options. The food was exactly what we expected compared to other national park lodge dining options. The lake is beautiful and it set us up for a perfect starting point to hit West Thumb, Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic areas before heading to Grand Teton at midday. From the hotel I do recommend going to Hayden Valley for sunset. We found a great spot with a view of the valley and (safety distanced) bison."

Soda Butte Lodge

Soda Butte Lodge

8/10 Good
"Parking is difficult and not many dedicated spots on the street. It is very remote and was only used for one night while traveling through. Not a lot of options in the area so your choices are limited. As expected it is an old property and don’t expect cellar in the town."

MTNLUX Refuge_Creekside Sauna & Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely loved the house!! Stunning grounds and amazing decor!! Everything you could possibly need or want was available for use, especially in the kitchen! I loved the details accounted for like the beach towels for the hot tub and the laundry baskets for carrying clothes. The owners communicated quickly and thoroughly to emails which was appreciated. We didn’t realize until after booking there are 2 other rentals attached to the house. It really wasn’t a problem but something that should be included in the listing. We loved the sauna, the hot tub and the convenience of the washing machines. There was a moldly smell in the hot tub as well as the washing machines but overall the house is immaculate! We wish we stayed longer!"

"Very nice property on the edge of Cooke City, situated directly on Soda Butte Creek. Property is very well cared for, with wonderful amenities for visitors. You are a 10 min walk to downtown Cooke, and a 15 min drive to Yellowstone North East Entrance. We enjoyed the Sauna, Hot tub, and laundry onsite. We loved the quiet atmosphere with views of river and mountains."
