What guests say
8.5 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 419 guest reviews
Yellowstone Valley Inn earns consistently strong sentiment for its stunning riverside setting, clean and charming log cabins, and genuinely warm staff — making it a favourite base for Yellowstone visitors. The most common frustration is the absence of live television (DVDs only), and a handful of guests flagged inconsistent restaurant hours and limited on-site assistance. Those who embrace the rustic, off-grid atmosphere tend to leave delighted; guests expecting standard hotel amenities may find it basic.
