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.
This apartment's great location gets high marks from our customers. During your stay, you're just a quick walk from Gallatin National Forest. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the apartment.

The best of the best
Our stay was the best of the best--inside and out! The view from the outside sitting areas can't be beat! Beautiful views of the mountains, with stunning sunrises and sunsets. This clean and comfortable studio rental had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The kitchen was well stocked, and the roomy bathroom was thoughtfully appointed with extras to make our stay enjoyable. The bed and living area were very comfortable--our stay was the best of the best. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience! We would love to return!

This property was beautifully appointed, comfortable and cozy. It was like coming home after a long day of sightseeing. The host took thought of whatever you might need. We only stayed 2 nights but if Yellowstone wasn’t such a large park to travel in and out of, I would stayed all week

Buffalo Room stay for Yellowstone
My spouse and I stayed at the Buffalo Room while we visited Yellowstone. It was the perfect size for 2 and the patio grille and fire table were awesome. A special note was the communication with Barbara. I had a request for her and the communication was timely and responsive. Will definitely stay again.

We loved our stay in this Studio. It had a full kitchen, was roomy and comfortable, and the outdoor sitting area was fabulous! It is so close to the park, but so much better than the park lodges. Book it! You won't regret it!

Our stay at the Buffalo Room was everything you could ask. We stayed six nights and spent five days exploring Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. It was a great "home base" and we needed nothing ... everything was provided.

We had such an amazing stay at the Buffalo Room! This was my second stay here and it was just as great as the first time! The view is amazing, we even watched elk eating and walking around from the relaxing patio. The apartment is clean and has extra touches for anything you may need! I can’t wait to be back again to visit, I cannot recommend this place enough!

This home was beautiful. So clean! It had everything we needed, even the switches were labeled! The bed and sheets allowed us a peaceful sleep. We sat outside a few nights and the views were spectacular. We will definitely stay here again. And thanks for recommending Wonderland Cafe in Gardiner then Gun Barrel Steaks in Jackson. Two delicious meals! Thank you again.

My husband and I loved every minute in Gardiner! This quaint studio is set above the town with a gorgeous view of the mountains. We grilled steaks our first night and enjoyed the sunset from patio (well stocked kitchen which was greatly appreciated!). Barbara and Allan were wonderful hosts and we can't wait to return.

Perfect stay in Gardiner
My husband and I stayed at the Buffalo Room for the last 2 nights of our Yellowstone trip. It had everything we needed, was super quiet, clean and comfortable and with a great view of the Roosevelt arch! Easy access to Yellowstone, and the binoculars came in handy to spot a grizzy far away on a ridge. Would definitely stay here again on our next Yellowstone trip!

I was very pleased with these accommodations. Although small as noted, it had EVERYTHING you need and was well designed for the square footage. View was beautiful, storm moved through while I was there so didn't get to enjoy sitting outdoors, but convenient to everything! Would definitely stay again!

Such a great place with every detail thought of. Would be perfect for exploring the northern half of Yellowstone. Loved seeing the Roosevelt Arch as we came and went each day. Great hosts and full of info about the park if needed. You won’t be disappointed if you choose this rental! Would love to come back someday.
