YEAR ROUND, a Cozy Studio for 2, Overlooking the Historic Yellowstone Arch

NEW Studio, Full Bathroom, Full Kitchen, Private Entry, Peaceful Yard with Views
Available year-round, enjoy the peace, quiet, snow and skiing in the winter; the abundant wildlife in the shoulder seasons and the hiking, rafting and scenery in the summer months.

"Where The Buffalo Rooms" a studio apartment situated up on a bluff above the town of Gardiner, Montana with amazing views of the historic Yellowstone Arch, Electric Peak and the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park.

Our walk-out studio apartment comes equipped with all the comforts of home including a pillow-top, queen bed, full bathroom with tub and hand-held shower head and a full kitchen. The sofa with extended chaise is the perfect spot to relax, catch a movie or check your email after a full-day exploring Yellowstone! The full kitchen will allow you to fix your own meals and pack lunches in the available cooler for your journey into the Park. Smart TV and Wireless Internet are included.

What we love about our home is that it is "in town" without being down on the main street. Our secluded lot is located up on the hill, about a five minute walk to downtown Gardiner where you will find shopping, restaurants, raft companies and more! The studio has an outside patio and lawn directly by the unit. Barbecue your dinner while admiring the view! There is private parking and a separate gated entry down to the unit. Our home is located up a dirt road, hill. Winter reservations will need an All-Wheel drive vehicle to be sure of access, even though the owner plows daily. Exterior security cameras are present on the property.

We keep our reservation calendar updated to the minute and our description on this page is accurate. So if you feel this is the spot for your next vacation and your dates are available on our calendar, you are welcome to book directly without contacting us (use Instant Booking option). Just follow VRBO's process with your credit card. We will be in touch immediately upon booking. If you do have specific questions not answered here, please email Barbara.
NOTE: VRBO sometimes INCORRECTLY lists our unit as a one bedroom, this is INCORRECT, it is definitely a STUDIO.

Wonderful place, beautiful view

Everything was easy at this great studio apartment. The pictures on the listing are very accurate with a gorgeous views and privacy on the patio, which was a wonderful place to drink coffee each morning. Convienent location and nearby laundromat. We didn’t see our host, but she responded promptly when we inquired about checking in a little early. And the kitchen is outfitted with everything you need. We will be back!

A wonderful place to stay in a great location for exploring the northern parts of Yellowstone. The space is indeed cozy, but also very comfortable and quiet. Step outside and there are great views of Gardiner and the mountains. Gardiner was fun to explore too! There is a great grocery store very close for stocking up.

This was our second time to stay and we loved it as much as the first! Location is perfect! We saw elk and deer every day and the scenery was beautiful! The studio has everything you could possibly need including a cooler which was great for packing our lunches for Yellowstone! Gardiner is a great town and this is the perfect place to stay!

Do yourselves a favour and book a stay in ‘the Buffalo Room. It is quiet, clean and comfortable with everything you need. The outdoor seating around the fire pit is a bonus and a great place to relax and take in the views after a day exploring Yellowstone. The beautiful nearby tree provides a shady area from the sun. Thank you Alan and Barbara

We stayed in the Buffalo Room for nine nights while we visited Yellowstone National Park. It was a perfect location … close to the park n overlooking the town of Gardiner. It was exceptionally clean and had everything we needed, even a cooler for our picnics in the park. We saw elk on the hill behind us and elk and mule deer as we were coming thru town heading back to the Buffalo Room. We loved sitting out on the patio relaxing and enjoying the beautiful views. This was our first visit to YNP and we were very happy we found the Buffalo Room.

Amazing property/location

I would recommend this property 10/10! Amazing and very responsive host, beautiful and clean apartment. Views were stunning. We really appreciated the cooler, binoculars, plenty of towels, outside facilities (Adirondack chairs, and fire pit table was amazing). If you are thinking of visiting Montana with easy access to the North entrance of Yellowstone Park, do not pass this one up! We look forward to coming back!
