The cabins are spread far enough apart to offer privacy to each party, but know that you may still see other travelers on the land during your stay. In addition to the cabins, enjoy the outdoor picnic and dining area, an outdoor gas stove, and a gas-powered fire pit. Outhouse with bucket toilet + cedar chips + bucket liners.

1mi from Silver Gate · 9 sites · Lodging

Located less than a mile from the NorthEast entrance to Yellowstone National Park. The Range Riders is a rustic Airbnb lodging option for people who don’t mind communal bathrooms, creaking floors, and thin walls. It is a beautiful building with a lot of history and charm that shows it's age. Range Rider Accommodations Located in the town of Silver Gate, just outside the Northeast entrance to Yellowstone National Park, sits the historic Range Rider Lodge. Construction began on the Range Rider in 1937 after the magnificent Beartooth Highway was completed. Whole logs were brought in from the surrounding forests and oil paintings depicting beautiful mountain scenes were commissioned to line the banisters of the second floor. The Range Rider was originally constructed to be an “indoor playground” for all of the tourists coming over the Beartooth Highway. Since its opening, the Range Rider, originally called the Gorham Chalet, has seen many wild times and brought a lot of entertainment to a small mountain community. Ernest Hemingway even used to frequent the bar and write. The original logs still stand and the Range Rider still possesses all of the magic that it has had since the day it opened. Over the years not much has changed, just enough so that people can continue to enjoy the Range Rider as so many have been able to in the past. Rooms in the Range Rider are available to be rented for nightly rentals. Rooms with one double bed start at $99.00/night and rooms with two double beds start at $184.00/night (these prices do not include tax). There are 5 communal restrooms; among them are 2 men’s showers and two women’s showers and two men’s restrooms and 2 women’s restrooms. The Range Rider is a rustic lodging option for people who don’t mind communal bathrooms, creaking floors, and thin walls. It is a beautiful building with a lot of history and charm but its age shows. The Range Rider Lodge is not for people looking for a luxury lodging option. It offers the bare minimum for your stay; the beds are comfortable and made with fresh linens and towels are provided for the bathrooms. The rooms are simple with just a bed and a table furnishing each room. The building warms up during the day but cools off at night depending on the outside temperature; to combat this we provide small space heaters in each bedroom.

Had a great trip to this cozy little cabin. The cabin was clean, plenty of firewood provided, and the Jackery + lights were a nice touch. Great location close to hiking and Chico Hot Springs. Would stay again!

Clean and very well stocked for a cabin. The sleeping bags and mattresses/cots on site were comfortable and clean. It’s remote, the stream is awesome to have nearby, the night sky is incredible with near zero light pollution, great fire pit, xl picnic table, lots of propane lanterns/burner/grill, I could go on for awhile. I didn’t get a chance to meet the folks who own it but they’re probably really great. Their cabin game is A+. I would note that this property is not for the total novice camper. You’d have to be atleast a decent driver to get a shitty little car or minivan down the path to the cabin but it’s no problem in an suv or truck. The cabin has everything you need to really have a great glamping base camp, your entrusted with a nice assortment of fire, propane accessories, fire pits, wood stoves, sharp stuff etc. Nothing here is stupid proof. Your don’t have running water, there’s no electricity and no fires if things get to dry. That being said it’s got plenty of water from the creek and various buckets, tubs, coolers and such along with a really cool old wash basin thing for your hands. There are a bunch of propane lanterns, mantles and fuel all stocked for light. Great options for cooking, grate over the fire pit, grill, and two large burners inside. We flew out and rented a car to explore the tri state area so we had very little with us. I would recommend a headlamp, some good food and maybe a few cold beers but you don’t need to worry about a whole lot else

Super cute cabin with everything I needed. The stream right by it also kept the area nice and cool despite an air temp of 90. The road leading to it had a number of big potholes that would be hard on smaller vehicles, but it also made sure that any traffic going through were going slow. Would absolutely stay here again!!!

Weekend Trip to North Fork Cabin

Amazing site! Felt totally remote while only being 20 min from the Yellowstone entrance and a little town with gas & ice & goof There were so many goods like pots, pans, silverware, camp chairs, gas lanterns, sleeping bags and pillows for the cots. It mightve been on me for being dumb and not realizing but I only wish i knew how much stuff was included i wouldve packed less

Beautiful little spot! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We loved playing in the stream that flows right next to the cabin and hearing it at night while sleeping. Our dogs also enjoyed hiking around the property. Very close to the park entrance and lots of cute shops and restaurants.

Incredible secluded cabin in the middle of the mountains! The sound of the rushing water was the absolute best thing to fall asleep and wake up to. My dog loved playing in the water and it is extremely accessible. I was hoping to see some otters, but I did hear some noises at night when falling asleep! Some critters are definitely nearby, as to be expected given the location! Josh's instructions were great and I had no trouble finding the spot. The generator with lights was also extremely appreciated! Felt safe as a solo female traveler, especially knowing that there were other campers across the way at the other cabin.

This is a great cabin and very cool/private area. Becky provided great directions and information for our stay. The cabins were clean and just about everything you need is provided.

Not one, but 2 cabins, each with 3-4 comfy cots with extra padding

We really enjoyed our time at Becky’s cabins and loved the privacy and beauty of the place. The listing isn’t very detailed on what’s available at the site but there is a LOT— we were pleasantly surprised by the TWO cozy cabins with wood stoves, a percolator for our morning campfire coffee, and details like lots of extra kindling and TP were really nice too. I had reached out to Becky ahead of time about my parents who hoped to bring their camper up and camp near us as I was unsure if that was allowed. Becky was very nice about it, but she was right— there was no way my parents could get their camper up to the cabin, because there is a drive-through barn with a 10-foot-tall opening that you approach at an angle, and leave on a hill, a little less than a quarter mile from the cabin. There is no driving path around this barn as the whole place is on a very lush section of mountainside and there simply isn’t any other way. They were willing to let us “try” to get through the barn but the camper wouldn’t have made it and anything larger than a teardrop trailer would probably struggle. They very generously allowed my parents to park on the other side of the barn, in a nice flat section of land, which we appreciated greatly! Additional notes: the gravel road leading up from Gardiner is 5 mi and washboard rough, and takes 10-15 minutes, then the final stretch to get to the cabin is about 3/4 mi further than the listed address, so you definitely need Becky’s directions handy! :)

Yes, it is a 6 mile drive over a washboard road. Yes, the country lane has pot holes and is slippery when wet. Yes, we would stay again without hesitation. We didn’t see anyone for the entire week which is exactly what we wanted…showered with water from the creek, caught the first rays of sun on the porch with coffee, and enjoyed quiet evenings around the campfire. There is wildlife around so keep a watchful eye out. Becky…what a rich inheritance to have a place like this in your family. It took our breath away, not only because of the altitude but because of the awe inspiring beauty. We are already talking about a return trip:) Thank you for sharing this idyllic space with us!

Becky’s cabin was beyond phenomenal. The feeling of remoteness in the Gardnier area is something you won’t get staying in a lodge. The ambient creek running through the property added such an immaculate vibe & the ability to pan for gold was a bonus!
