"Glamping"--sort of...

This place is well done. Great check in process with Montana Jim (but takes 20 mins to go through everything so be prepared). It's pretty much what you see in the pics is what you get. The good: if you want a "glamping-style" experience it is. The bad: it's really not very close to Yellowstone, it gets cold at night and the stove in the tent only handles 2 hours at a time, the hot water is only hot, the sink/shower in tent is very basic, the sky-gazer part of the tent has no shade and it gets very bright and very hot in the morning on your face, there's not much to do right at the camp. All in all, fun for 1 night but you better be the hearty-type and ready to keep yourself entertained while there.

This was a unique experience for my family of four in early July 2025. The staff was very friendly and helpful. While it's hot during the day, West Yellowstone weather will quickly change, and cold will be a whole new experience. A buddy told me the potbelly stove my dry my throat out after having radiation treatments months prior as I continue to heal. We have never felt cold like that and the remaining nights would be with the fire burning to keep us warm. Lesson learned. The key is stoking the fire to get the logs burning just right. They will teach you how to do this during orientation. I recommend the Suite tents that have a sink and shower.

Unsafe Stay – Smoke and CO Exposure, No Heater, Po

We stayed for two nights—myself, my wife, and our two kids—and unfortunately had a very distressing experience due to serious safety issues with the room. The wood stove heater in our room was malfunctioning from the start. I called room service multiple times; each time, someone came to restart the fire, but it would go out again in less than an hour. The room quickly filled with smoke, forcing us to leave the windows open in freezing temperatures. On the first night, I nearly developed frostbite. Even more concerning, we were unknowingly exposed to carbon monoxide. The next morning, both kids had severe stomach aches and vomiting. My wife and I experienced the same symptoms. Despite reporting the issue again, we were told the service team had checked during the day—but nothing improved. That night, the heater failed again. A maintenance person came around midnight but couldn’t fix it. Only after escalating again did someone finally offer to move us to a new room—at 1 a.m. By then, our night was ruined, and our plans for the following day were completely derailed. The staff, especially Hanna, were courteous and tried to help, but the overall response was reactive and too little, too late. We were told a refund would be issued and that the property is coordinating with Hotels.com—but as of now, we are still waiting. This was supposed to be a peaceful and memorable getaway for our family, but it turned into a health scare. I hope this review serves as a caution for other

We really enjoyed our stay at Under Canvas. Montana Jim was great during our check-in, and all other staff was friendly and helpful as well. We loved the on-site restaurant and cute Bronco Bar. My only complaint was lukewarm coffee in the morning at the check-in tent. We will definitely stay at another Under Canvas site in our future travels!!

Checking in was a pain. Check in was 3pm but they didnt have the room ready until almost 5pm. Everybody was friendly and the place is beautiful including the room. But I had to wait for almost 2 hours for them to have the room ready. Im not sure if it was a once off thing, but it was a major inconvenience.
