"Paradise Valley and your lovely house served as the perfect base for exploring Yellowstone, Virginia City, Pine Creek and the surrounding area. We had traveled more than 4,000 miles before arriving here so we truly enjoyed the ‘comforts of home.’ We truly enjoyed our stay! We really enjoyed staying at Yellowstone Lookout. The ‘cabin’ was even better than the pictures. Nice, new and VERY NEAT AND CLEAN." - R and C, Cleveland, OH, 12/15/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Nice home; sturdy, clean, roomy and efficient. Nice river view and great view of mountains all around. It was fun to BBQ on the River deck and watch a beautiful Montana sunset." - R , P, B and H , Virginia, 12/13/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"If you plan to go fishing, go to Knoll’s Fly Shop (just up the road a mile or so) in advance. “Doc” is very knowledgeable and such a fun character. The house was perfect! We had a great time." - N and C, Mass., 12/13/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We had a wonderful time in your beautiful home! Thank you for all the thoughtful, special touches. Seeing Yellowstone in the winer and skiing at Bridger Bowl were "dreams come true." Loved all the wildlife--we saw elk, bison, deer, coyotes, wolves, eagles and pronghorn." - D, D and K, New York, 12/11/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Thank you for helping us enjoy a vacation we have dreamed of for years. Yellowsteon Park is a uniquie experience that words don’t do justice to. Paradise Valley is appropriately named. The people of Montana are second to none. Thanks for the tips on places to eat, the K Bar in Gardiner has the best pizza I have ever had; the Montana Rib and Chop House in Livingston was a treat. By day 2 we were already referring to your cabin as ‘home’. It could not have been more enjoyable. Next time, we will plan on fishing right outside the door! Natural is my lasting impression. The variety of wildlife, the scenery and the way the people of Montana respect and protect what the lord has given them is unmatched in our experience. God Bless Montana. " - M and V, Tulare, California, 11/10/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We’ve had a wonderful time. We’ve been fishing most days, visited Chico Hot Springs (and their great restaurant), taken a horse back ride, took a day to visit Yellowstone and the Tetons, meandered around Livingston and Bozeman (MacKenzie River Pizza is a delicious lunch stop) and have gone skeet shooting. Fantastic experience! The halibut at Chico is the best I have ever had—bar none. Endless recreational opportunities and the fishing was excellent. We’ve been swimming in the Yellowstone everyday, hiked to Pine Creek Falls, and visited the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman—the boys loved the dinosaurs and the weapons displayed. There is so much to do and see and not enough hours in the day to get it all done. We’ve enjoyed the use of your home—don’t be surprised if you see us here again!" - B, M, J and M, Scottsdale, AZ, 11/05/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We’ve had a wonderful time staying in this BEAUTIFUL home. It is the first time that I have been to Montana, but definitely not the last! My husband and I developed a real obsession for fly fishing and it’s hard to think of a better place than this to do it. We highly recommend Knolls (just down the road) for excellent flies, helpful advice and great prices. All in all, this was one of our more enjoyable trips—hope to be back some time again!

"What a fabulous week we had! We hiked on most days, saw a great deal of wildlife including a huge bear grooming itself on the trail. It did not care about my presence. It just stared at us with a funny look. We drove to the Beartooth Highway and faced a snowstorm at the summit. This part of the country is mesmerizing. We are in awe of the grandeur and wonder. Thanks for letting us stay in your house. We loved it here" - P and L, Canada, 11/05/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"What a beautiful ‘base camp’ this home provided for our trip to Yellowstone. We are Montana natives hosting an exchange student from Germany. We were able to fish right out our door and loved this base from which to explore the Park!" - D family, Montana, 11/05/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"First of all, thank you for the opportunity to stay in your gorgeous home. The drive into Livingston is so magestic and the views around this area are breathtaking! Walking into your home, I was like a kid in a candy shop...just taking it all in. All is kept saying was WOW! The views, the river in your backyard, the hot tub, and all the comforts of home. This was a late honeymoon for us and we could not have asked for a better place--private, relaxing and gorgeous! We hope to return one of these days! " - D and G, TX, 10/26/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"I wanted to let you know how much my family and I enjoyed our stay at Yellowstone Lookout. The house was immaculate and the most well equipped I have ever stayed in. I have to tell you that your house is the only one I've ever come across that provides the guests with a cooler. What a luxury when you are exploring, hiking & driving through Yellowstone and the magnificent Paradise Valley. As I mentioned before, your home was the most well equipped place I have ever stayed. Once again, I would like to thank you for opening up your vacation home to us. We walked away with many fond and exciting memories of a spectacular vacation." - L T and B, , 10/07/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"What a beautiful state and wonderful vacation home! Your home is a welcome sight at the end of a day of seeing all that there is to see in the area. We enjoyed sitting on the porch, just watching the River and the clouds over the mountains go by. On of the best vacations and definitely the best ‘rental home’ ever!" - N and G, Palmdale CA, 02/13/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Yellowstone Lookout North was very warm and comfortable accommodation for the start of our winter vacation. We enjoyed the great Yellowstone River view and close proximity to Yellowstone Park. To our pleasant surprise we had GREAT cross country skiing above Mammoth Hot Springs. The Park is so peaceful and enjoyable in the Winter. The kids loved the spiral stairway and we all loved the comfortable beds at Yellowstone Lookout. This was a great start to our winter vacation. Now, we're off to ski Bridger and Big Sky. We will highly recommend Yellowstone Lookout to anyone who wants to visit Yellowstone in the Winter. Thanks for the fabulous stay!" - S, T, K and E, Minnesota, 01/21/12(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We had a great time—the Yellowstone River is beautiful. We fished some, hiked and just drove around. The house was really nice—we definitely enjoyed it!" - R and J, Austin, TX, 11/04/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Beautiful view of the mountains and Yellowstone River right from the house! Saw all kinds of wildlife including elk, deer and eagles. We saw the temperature go from 28 in the morning to the high 70’s in the afternoons during our September visit. Snow in the higher elevations of the mountains was gorgeous and the stars at night were as clear as we ever have seen! We caught several trout and enjoyed cooking them here. The lodge had all the necessities that are needed to enjoy the stay!" - , 11/04/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

"WOW…this week in Yellowstone has got to have been our best ever. We’ve been to the Park at least a dozen times. It was definitely great to have this incredible place to come ‘home’ to. Thank you so much, you literally thought of EVERYTHING . Each time we thought, “on no, we need a …….., there it was" - G family, Wisconsin, 11/04/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

Thank you so much for providing this wonderful place for us to stay." - G, Minnesota, 11/04/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We enjoyed our time in Paradise Valley. We liked Mill Creek, Pine Creek and the Tom Minor Petrified Forest as well as spending a few days in Yellowstone. Lots of wildlife and nature to enjoy right from the house!" - , 11/02/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We used your wonderful cabin to explore the area. In fact, we liked the couch and chair so much that we will be purchasing a set when we get home. We explored Paradise Valley, Gallatin River Valley, Yellowstone and the Tetons. We saw bear, elk, bald eagles, bison, mountain goats, big horn sheep etc. The wildlife highlight was witnessing an elk giving birth. WOW. Thanks for the basket and all the amenities of home. M and J-- Rhode Island " - M and J, Rhode Island, 11/01/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We spent one week at this property (February 12 - 20, 2011). This house was even better than expected. The setting was beautiful. It overlooked the mountains on both sides and stood very close to the Yellowstone River. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating. The home was very clean and comfortably furnished. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of our "stuff" to store wiihtout tripping over it all the time. The kitchen had everything needed even down to salt, pepper, paper towels, etc. We also loved the hottub. It was very relaxing after a day of exploring. Our adventure incuded dogsledding with Absaroka which was a blast. We would highly recommend this to anyone. We split our visit with a 2 night trip to the Snow Lodge at Old Faithful. This is also very highly recommended. The house is only about 45 minutes from the North/Gardiner entrance of Yellowstone. We saw lots of wildlife on the way (which is one of the reasons it takes about 45 minutes to get there due to being cautious when driving to look out for deer and elk crossing the road). The town of Livingston had a nice Albertson's for any grocery needs. We ate at the Rib and Chop House in Livingston. FANTASTIC food!!!! Don't miss it. I had some of the best seafood I've ever had in Livingston, MT...go figure! You won't be disappointed with this home or it's location!! " - B and K, NC, 02/23/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"What a beautiful place. The house was perfect. We have never stayed at a place where everything was furnished as well as it was at Yellowstone Lookout." - C Family, Knoxville, TN, 02/13/11(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

"Words can not deccribe the awesomeness of the whole experience! We loved this house! " - B and A, CA, 10/26/10(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Just a fast note to say thanks, we got home Monday night about 8:30, my entire family enjoyed the house, the view, Yellowstone, and the snow. Our grandsons age 5 and 3 had never seen snow before and waking up Thursday morning to 3 to 4 inches was the best present I could have given them. They played outside all day, making angels, a snow man, throwing snow balls eating snow cones, sliding down not only the hill behind the house but the roadway. The snow coach tour of Yellowstone on Friday was great, the snow was about knee deep and we all enjoyed playing in it, I think we took about 400 pictures, Will let you go just wanted to say thanks. EM" - , 01/02/10(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We have had a glorious week. Of course, we have to go home but do so reluctantly. We love your home. It is so well designed. I think it would make a perfect retirement home for a couple of ‘old’ people. It had such a great smell of newness/cleanness when we arrived on Sunday. There was nothing that we needed that was not furnished. How GREAT! Again, thank you for letting us rent your wonderful home. It was ‘wonderful’! " - J and P, Owatonna, MN, 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"A GREAT location! Well equipped and comfortable ‘homey’ place to stay. We saw so much bird life and wildlife right from the house. Yellowstone was fantastic and we saw too much to even mention. We even caught fish in between it all—that felt great! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit!" - M, P ,R and I, Brookfield MA and Hancock England, 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

"WOW! First, thanks so much for the lovely basket of goodies! What a wonderful surprise. And second, thanks so much for letting us rent your beautiful home. We did so much while we were here—because in Montana, there is everything to do! From the beautiful drive down the roads, to the fun float down the Yellowstone River to the National Park visits (so many animals), to the Madison Buffalo Jump to the beautiful sunsets on the back porch! Thanks so much!" - K, J, M, A and S, Charlotte, NC, 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We are all feeling a bit melancholy about leaving tomorrow. This area is so beautiful, peaceful and magical. The scenic float down the river at sunset was perfect. Livingston is charming with so much art! We spent a day at Chico—horse back riding and soaking. We spent a day at Yellowstone and were thrilled to see so much wildlife. Some days we fished and simply sat by the Yellowstone River in the backyard. It was hard to pull my toes out of that inviting water for the last time. The house was PERFECT—thanks for the gift basket!" - D, D, R and S, , 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Thank you so much for a lovely home to come to. We enjoyed our stay. Our family loved the turn key feel at Yellowstone Lookout and the fact that everything was perfect. We had a great time here.

Thank you again so much for the great home and care you gave us." - S family, Michigan, 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"I wish I could have stayed longer. Three weeks was just not long enough. Thanks for making this home available. It was a comfy place to hang my hat while exploring this beautiful, magnificent area. I greatly enjoyed the bald and golden eagles, pelicans and various geese and ducks doing their daily flights past the house on their way up and down the River. Thanks again for all the comforts of home. I hope to visit again. " - J, Pennsylvania, 11/05/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We loved the riverside hot tub with the snow falling all around us. What fun! We watched the bald eagles go up and down the river and saw deer on the other side of the river while sitting in the hot tub. The house was stocked with anything and everything you can imagine and very cozy. We felt a great sense of peace and tranquility at this home!" - G and L, England, 01/11/09(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

After long days of seeing Yellowstone, we loved coming home to 'our' cozy home and the hot tub on the river." - Anonymous, Bristol, VA, 04/23/08(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We had 3 wonderful days at Yellowstone Lookout North. The home was well equipped, tastefully decorated and so peaceful. We enjoyed the magnificent views, snow capped mountains, soaring eagles and the Yellowstone River. The fishing was ok too, for late March. It's a great place to relax, so comfy. The hot tub is an added bonus, as well as, the Wi-Fi, since we did not have cell phone service, my husband could still check in with work when needed. A truly great place to enjoy Montana!" - Sue Koerten, Wausau, Wisconsin, 04/01/08(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

Can go and stay at the pretty house on the river in Montanna?" " We love it there!" Well...we love it too.

"We enjoyed our winter visit to Yellowstone Lookout! The snow was beautiful and the River was alive with ice crystals floating down it and bald eagles, geese and ducks flying above. One day we visited Yellowstone Park and were amazed by the Winter beauty! We enjoyed cross country skiing and wildlife viewing and felt like we had the Park to ourselves. On another day we cross country skied up Mill Creek (by the cabin) and on the the way home, we enjoyed soaking in the nearby mineral hot springs. On other days we explored Livingston, Bozeman and Bridger Bowl ski area. The cabin was cozy, warm and extraordinarily neat and clean. We really enjoyed our stay!
