Cabin By The River~ 10 minutes from the north entrance to Yellowstone Park



Cabin By the River was built in 1995 and rests on the banks of the Yellowstone River, 10.5 miles north of Gardiner, Montana, the only year around entrance to Yellowstone Park. We have fully recovered from the historic 2022 flood and enjoy full access to Yellowstone Park. The cabin is situated on about 5 acres in the upper Paradise Valley, south of Yankee Jim Canyon and north of Corwin Springs, Montana. We enjoy a country setting with neighbors across grassy fields.

The cabin is decorated in country cabin decor and will sleep five. There is a queen bed in the main floor bedroom and a queen and a single bed in the sleeping loft. The front porch overlooks the river and offers a porch swing, table and chairs and a gas bbq. For rainy days, there are reading materials, games, Dish TV and DVD player with a selection of movies. The small kitchen offers a full size range and refrigerator. Dishes, utensils, coffee maker, crock pot & a brief pantry are provided.

The bathroom is a tub/shower combination. Linens, towels and paper products are provided.

Wifi service is available but caution that we are in a mountainous area and it is sometimes undependable. Your Verizon cell phone works well but is the predominant cell Service in our area.

We have a fire ring down along side the river for marsh mellow roasting or just enjoying.
In the grassy area above the cabin there is a swing set, yard games and tether ball, lots of area to run and play. Fishing in the Yellowstone River from our property can be successful and a great experience in a blue ribbon trout stream.

We are only 10 minutes to Gardiner, the north entrance to Yellowstone. Our guests enjoy coming out of the Park in the evening to the quiet setting of the Cabin By the River. We do have a 4 night minimum.

During your stay at this cabin, you're just a quick walk from Gallatin National Forest. The cabin offers free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • The cabin offers a kitchen, a living room and a private garden
  • Free WiFi

The cabin is situated, literally, right on the river, a stones throw. Very comfortable for 2, but a family of 4 or 5 would also be able to enjoy the home and the surroundings just fine. The porch is a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or to unwind after a day adventuring in the park. The Wagners thought of everything to make a stay quite comfortable and restful. Highly recommend

Perfect Yellowstone Vacation
Chris and Warren provide the perfect home away from home for your Yellowstone vacation! The Cabin by the River is clean and comfortable with all the extras. Only 10 minutes to Yellowstone's North entrance, it is a perfect location for day-tripping in the park. However, the cabin could be a vacation all on its own with its beautiful views from the porch, tether ball, corn hole, volleyball, checkers, and so much more! Chris and Warren are beyond gracious hosts! They quickly answer messages and have wonderful suggestions for getting the most out of your vacation. Warren even loaned us bear spray and binoculars when he realized our Yellowstone newbie oversights. I can't say enough about this gem of a vacation spot! My family enjoyed a trip of a lifetime here!

Cabin By The River is a dream
My husband and I were celebrating our twentieth anniversary with a trip to Yellowstone and found this property and loved it. The cabin is just as cute as it looks and only ten minutes from town and the North gate. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and by the river after a long day in the park. Our hosts were lovely and added small touches you don’t often find in rentals. We can’t recommend this property enough. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us.

I booked this cabin for mine and my husband’s anniversary and it did not disappoint! It is exactly as described but better! We spent multiple days in the park and a day in Gardiner. We loved every moment especially sitting on the deck drinking coffee in the morning. Chris and Warren are just the sweetest hosts! I hope to visit again

We loved staying here!
The Cabin at the River exceeded our expectations. It was clean and had everything we needed to make our stay just like home. The owners were kind and responsive. It was a 10 min drive to Yellowstone Park. We fished, played yard games, and hung out on the porch in the evenings. The view was beautiful! Highly recommend!

Peaceful cabin by the Yellowstone river
My wife and I had a very peaceful stay for 4 nights while visiting Yellowstone NP. The cabin was perfect for our evenings after visiting the park during the daytime. The cabin is very close to the north entrance of Yellowstone. The cabin was very cozy and so peaceful next to the Yellowstone river. Sitting on the porch swing in the evening listening to the river was so relaxing. The cabin was very clean and quality paper products were provided ie. paper towels, tissues, and toilet paper. The shower had great water pressure and was hot... very nice after a long day out venturing at the park. The owners were wonderful hosts and were available anytime we had questions. We hope to stay here again our next time visiting North Yellowstone.... truly a beautiful area.

Magical river
Sleeping and waking to the sounds of the Yellowstone river was magical. The drive to YNP each morning was short and beautiful. Cabin is small and quaint just perfect for a family of 5, and if you want to spend day (or 2) at cabin plenty to occupy kids.
