Brief Description: This spacious and open home features exposed timbers, lofted ceilings, beautiful finish touches and some truly amazing mountain views.
Bedrooms and baths: The home has three bedrooms and two and a half baths. The main part of the house is all on the second level. A flight of stairs takes you up to the living area - where you will find the master bedroom with king size bed. Attached is a beautifully tiled bathroom with a huge double shower. This bathroom is the only bathroom on this level, so is also accessed off the living room. The other two bedrooms are on the main level. One bedroom has a king size bed and and attached bathroom with a sauna and the bunk room has one queen futon and a single futon. There is also half bath on this level of the home. This homes is being remodeled winter 2009 to add the third bedroom and second full bath. We will have more picutures soon.
Kitchen: This complete kitchen has everything you will need to prepare any meals you desire during your visit. It is a long kitchen area, separated from the living area by a tall counter with a few barstools - for hanging out to chat with the cook! Off to the side is a dining table that seats four. Patio doors off the dining area lead out to a beautiful deck area for barbecues, or just relaxing and taking in the views.
Living room: The living room has a cozy leather sofa for snuggling up in front of the woodstove on chilly evenings. The home has some books and games for entertainment, plus there is a television with VCR/DVD for watching movies. The home does not have television reception, but there are movie rental stores nearby if you need a movie fix.
Setting, acreage, views: The cabin is located on 20 acres in the Paradise Valley, between the small towns of Emigrant and Pray. Views are of the rugged Absaroka Mountains, and Emigrant Peak - which is just above the main attraction in this part of the valley, Chico Hot Springs.
Activities nearby: Chico Hot Springs, or "Chico" as the name is shortened by locals, is open to the public, and is a must-do while you are here. Go for some great food, a relaxing soak in the hot springs, or some fun local music and a great dancing scene. Besides Chico, there is fishing on the Yellowstone River just a few minutes away, hiking and mountain biking on nearby trails, horseback riding, golf, skiing, tours of Yellowstone National Park, and everything that the towns of Livingston, Bozeman and Gardiner have to offer.
Closest town and airport: It's about 4 miles to the town of Emigrant, which has a small general store, saloon, cafe, post office, and ice cream store. Livingston and Gardiner are both 20-30 minutes from the home. Gallatin Field Airport in Bozeman is the closest, and is about one hour away.
