We enjoyed the privacy of the apartment and its quiet, cozy feel. We also appreciated the amenities of the kitchen, which enabled us to eat most of our meals "at home." We'd be happy stay there again next time we visit Yellowstone.

Rive Gauche, Oui!

Rive Gauche provided a special place to stay while we enjoyed our daily Yellowstone adventures. It was comfortable, clean, and convenient to Yellowstone. The owner thought of many charming and welcoming details and we loved our stay there! We felt it was a special find.

Perfect stay

Rive Gauche is the perfect location to stay if you want to enter Yellowstone's north entrance...you can see if from the house! The house was by far the most comfortable stay of our whole trip. The only bad thing was that is was SO comfortable, we had trouble leaving it to explore town and the park! Loved every thing about it.

Super Clean, Great Location

Property is very clean and the kitchen was stocked with all of the little things we needed during our stay. Views of the river and the wildlife were incredible. The location was ideal for us as we are very familiar with the area. We experienced a drainage problem with the showet and after calling several phone numbers and leaving messages, a very nice gentleman repaired the issue that evening. We could have used more than two bath towels for two adults for a weeks stay but we made it work by using the laundromat. I really enjoyed the Paris theme as it was a nice break from the typical mountain inspired decor. The gated entry was an excellent experience as it provided an extra sense of security. Overall, our experience was very positive and we would book here again.

Great nights sleep

Quality of bedding was amazing. The best sleep we had out of the 5 total places we stayed on this vacation. You will be blown away with the bath towels too, very luxurious. The quality of pretty much everything was top notch. You’ll be very satisfied with the house and porch overlooking the river! The only downfall was the WiFi, but hopefully you’re not out here to be streaming on your device (no tv in the studio) or working anyways! Signal from the router was very weak. We could connect but then it disappears. The 5G signal was good enough to just disconnect from the WiFi. We didn’t really have a need to be connected, but worth noting.

We enjoyed our stay. The studio apartment was very clean and neat. The town has many restaurants and very friendly people. The location being so close to the north entrance of Yellowstone makes this a very accommodating location. Sitting on the back deck and watching the flowing river was amazing.

Perfect Location

This property was the perfect location to explore North Yellowstone and have a comfortable home base to return back to. The apartment was beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The location couldn’t have been better and we loved sitting on the porch just watching the river go by.
