PARADISE VALLEY GETAWAY-PRIVATE, PEACEFUL, WIFI,HOT TUB, ~A/C~

We stayed here for 10 days. A family of five. Plenty of room to move around. We had neighbors but never saw or heard them. Very quiet and serene area. About 30 minutes from the North gate of Yellowstone. We drove into the park each day and then came home to a very relaxing atmosphere. Most mornings we got up early (sun rises very early compared to Texas) and drank coffee while observing the mule deer in the yard. Stay here if you get a chance. Great price for the area and owners are very helpful and easy to work with.

We stayed at this house for a week at the end of September 2011. It was our first time in Montana and visiting Yellowstone NP and our first time using VRBO so we didn't really know what to expect. Now that we've dealt with more house owners i have to commend Bob for making the whole process so smooth and fast and hassle-free. He was a pleasure to deal with! We got our deposit back after we came back without having had to ask for it. we also appreciated the little personal touches around the house when we got there such as trail mix and popcorn and all the different magazines and brochures about the area and the parks and of course the DVD collection, especially the Yellowstone DVDs which we enjoyed immensely. Having books in one of the bedrooms was super nice as well!
Finding the house was very easy, we just followed Bob's directions and had no problems. The house is located in such a great area: since we were there in the fall, you could see the tree leaves changing color, the grass was all white-yellow and those mountains in the back were amazing! the weather was quite warm with day temperatures in 60s-70sF on our arrival, but nights and early mornings were much cooler! it was quite windy some of the days and there was some rain overnight, so beautiful fall weather! we really enjoyed the apple tree by the house and the family of mule deer that greeted us when we arrived.
the house itself has 3 levels: the living room/kitchen/one of the bathrooms and two bedrooms with the deck are located on the main(second) level. we mostly used the main floor and were very comfortable there. the living room is very nice with a huge deck and a hot tub/grill and a great place to watch the stars at night. the kitchen was well-equipped and we had everything we needed including soap and cleaning supplies which we really appreciated. the only thing that could be improved in the kitchen is the sharpness of the knives; they were quite dull.
there's another bedroom in the attic, but the stairs are quite steep. there are more bedrooms and another kitchen and bathroom and washer/dryer in the basement(all bedrooms and kitchen have windows), but i much prefer the main floor! the house was very clean. so the house was great for us and our needs and we would not hesitate to stay there again. it's about a 45 minute drive to Yellowstone NP entrance in Gardiner, MT and it's a beautiful drive(you can see bison,mule deer,pronghorn sheep and coyotes).
Thanks Bob for letting us stay!

We were so pleased with our choice of the Paradise Valley Getaway. It was simple to get to from Bozeman Airport and the location is perfect for numerous day trips. However, we enjoyed the the place so much that we stayed at the house and relaxed much of the time. Sitting on the deck was wonderful as the clear, sunny mid-August weather was absolutely perfect. We welcomed regular visits from deer in the afternoons.

The kitchen was well-equipped and we ate nearly all of our meals at the house. All of the appliances and utensils were in excellent condition. Everything in the house was impeccably clean.

I can't emphasize enough how wonderful the views are, not just from the deck, but also the living room and kitchen. This house probably has some of the nicest, unobstructed views in the area. There's plenty of space between the house and its nearest neighbors making it feel private, but it's also not too far removed from things. I heartily recommend Paradise Valley Getaway and would absolutely return again.
