Photos and Description of the Livingston vacation house rental
4 bedrooms, 1.5 bathroom, sleeps 8, large rec room accomodates extra people

Memories are made at this simple and beautiful ranch-style home. Located in the heart of Paradise Valley, you will be just 30 minutes from Yellowstone Park, 10 minutes from Livingston, and a stroll down the hill to the Yellowstone River. Gorgeous panoramic views of the Absaroka and Gallatin mountain ranges.

This 4 bedroom home can accommodate up to 8 guests. Beautiful warm colors surround you, 2 fireplaces keep you cozy(1 wood burning and 1 gas) in the large 2900 sq. ft. living area. Beautiful decks surround the home, which boasts a large recreation room for parties and games. Fitness/weight equipment in barn. Laundry facilities in home.

Kitchen is slightly dated, however it gives the home an old school charm. Fully furnished with cooking utensils, cutlery and cooking needs. Bedrooms are located downstairs, there are 3 queen beds and a kids bedroom with 2 twin beds. The recreation room can accomadate a few more people in sleeping bags or bring your own air mattresses.

A river runs through it...: Yellowstone Country - Anglers enjoy floating the Yellowstone River, fishing in the clear mountain streams, or matching their skills with wary spring creek trout. The fabled rivers and streams of Yellowstone National Park are only a short distance up the Valley. The fishing doesn't get any better than here.

After a day of hiking, fishing, trail riding, exploring, or skiing you can relax in the hot tub or cuddle up with a good book in front of the fire. We are perfectly located for your Montana adventure.

There are numerous bird species in Paradise Valley including, American bald and golden eagles, owls, hawks, falcons, wading birds, four species of hummingbird, and Osprey. As the seasons change so do the vistas and activities available. In the Spring, migratory birds return, newly born calf elk appear on the mountain, the first tiny wildflowers bloom, and the streams open for fishing in late May. As Summer unfolds, the meadows turn to green, elk and deer are minding their young, rodeo season is under way, floating the wild Yellowstone River is enjoyed, and horseback riding and hiking are always fun with wildflowers in full bloom. The many area streams hold abundant and beautifully colored Brown, Rainbow and Cutthroat Trout. Keep your eyes out for a young buck who likes to eat the flowers near the house. He will let you watch from the house as he eats his dinner just a few feet beyond the glass doors.

When winter sets in and snow is on the mountain, the squirrels, finches and chickadees cluster at the feeder, elk by the hundreds graze the foothills, skiers head for the slopes or the back country, fireplaces warm the toes, and trips to Chico Hot Springs occur more frequently. The stars so brilliant in the cold clear skies make for the end of a perfect day.

Our guests have access to over a million acres of public land, including those in the Gallatin National Forest and the Absaroka/Beartooth Wilderness. There are trails to hike, peaks to climb and pristine areas to explore.

Loved this place! We already booked our next stay!

We actually stayed here in July of 2011. We are headed back out here June 2013 and are so excited. Our two boys had so much fun fishing, white water rafting, seeing bear & other wildlife, hiking, horseback riding and more! The beds were super comfortable, and the home was clean when we arrived. The manager and neighbor Bill was so sweet and took great care of us. The views from the deck are incredible. This isn't some fancy hotel. It is a beautiful home with amazing views and lots of relaxation potential! We brought our wireless internet card to do a little bit of work, and we only turned on the TV once to watch a movie. Otherwise, we were totally entertained and happy with the river (within walking distance), our hike to the waterfall, Yellowstone National Park (just a short drive away) and visits into town to visit the train museum and check out the local shops. Waking up to deer outside our bedroom window, and experiencing a quick Montana storm that knocked out the electricity were just a few added benefits! The neighbors were nice, although there is a ton of privacy. Everything was clean and we enjoyed it so much we are headed back again! Thanks for a wonderful stay in Montana.

My wife and I chose this location because it had a more rustic and down-to-earth feel. We wanted to have the opportunity to un-plug from everything and get our family to see beyond their cyber-chains. This was the best time our family has had in years. We sat by the fire in the evenings and talked over board games. We walked through gorgeous terrain and went through Yellowstone. Our family hasn't been this close in a long time. Thank you for the use of your home!

My family stayed here and absolutely LOVED it!!! There was so much to do around here. We were able to hike all throughout the area in such a beautiful location. The river ran right by the house and we had the best time tubing. We were also able to bing our dog which is mandatory for our family. The owners are obviously family oriented b/c there were plenty of board games to help entertain the kids. Thank you for memories that we will take with us forever!

My husband and I retired several years ago and enjoy traveling now. We had a great time soaking up the Montana environment. There was a quaint, homey little town nearby, wonderful views, and Yellowstone was a short drive away. Perfect little get-a-way!

Very disappointing

Location was great, but everything else was unsatisfactory. The property is dirty, unmaintained and unsafe for small children. Upon arrival there was a big, black garbage bag of trash left on the floor in the middle of a bedroom, another bedroom had a piled-up blanket on the floor and we were left a note that indicated there was wash in the laundry room to be finished - what a warm welcome. Other than the refrigerator and a few utensils, we didn't use the kitchen because of the general feeling of grime everywhere. The flooring in front of the kitchen sink felt as though it was going to give way at any moment. The only shower was very moldy. The railing that encloses the stairwell is unsafe (it gives to either side about an inch). When we turned on the ceiling fan in the living room we were sprinkled with globs of cob webs. The fact that there's no TV/cable service at the property was not a big deal and certainly disclosed in the ad, but I know now it has nothing to do with location any everything to do with trying to skimp and save on expenses. The grounds were unmaintained; many weeds and cigarette butts scattered all around. This property is classified as “budget”, however I would still expect the property to be clean, safe and well maintained. Will definitely come back to the area, but we will not return to this property.
Owner's Response: I have been renting my property for over 5 years and have never had a complaint about the home or environment. We have had the same wonderful cleaner for 4 of these years. In all the time I have rented there has never been a need to retain the security deposit until this family. Our cleaner arrived to find the property in such disarray that she was shocked. Dirty diapers littered the floor, there was filth everywhere, including dog fecal matter, and it was as if they went out of their way to destroy personal property. Do not let one vindictive person ruin the possibility of your family enjoying the rugged terrain, abundant wild life, incredible views, and charm of this vacation.

We had a great time staying at this house. We enjoyed so many activities: BBQ's, hiking, swimming in the Boiling River hot springs, rafting, scenic drives, shopping, and relaxing in the home. We appreciated the well stocked supplies in the house. Our stay would have been perfect and more comfortable if there was box fans or air available to cool down the house during the day, as it got to be above 90 degrees in the living room and kitchen area. The neighbor was nice enough to come over and loan us his converter box so we could get local channels on the TV. This made it nice to sit back and watch the news and weather to prepare for the next day of fun. Overall though, this was one of our most memorable vacations and the home made us feel as we were at our own home. Thanks for opening your doors to us.

We loved it! The house is well stocked with everything we needed and more. We enjoyed hanging out, playing games/sports, taking in the views as well as heading out to some of the suggested activities (hikes, Yellowstone, Chico Hot Springs, horseback riding, etc.). What an incredible vacation!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! We can't wait for our next trip!

Thank you so much for opening your home to my family. We enjoyed the home tremendously. We loved walking to the River, flying kites, swimming at Chico Hot Springs, and took your advice on some hikes.

We are coming back next summer!

Thanks!
