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!

Amazing site! Very private, pull through that has plenty of woods to block the road (rarely saw any cars). Beautiful spot in the woods with a wonderful fireplace. Close to Chico hot springs but far enough away to think you’re the only ones out in the woods. Would definitely stay here again!

The road is a bit bumpy and narrow, but it was so worth it. Such a beautiful secluded spot by the River and Josh was kind enough to help us get settled in

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!!!

One of the best Hipcamp locations we've encountered. The sound of the stream was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

The camp was great and very clean! Sleeping next to the creek was much needed after a long day of driving. The road is quiet and tucked away.
A perfect stayover. 10/10 will come here again in my next fishing trip around Yellowstone.

This is quite possibly my favorite campsite ever! I loved the privacy, the running creek, and exploring the landscape along the nearby road

Loved this cozy camping spot by the river! Tranquil creek right by the site with lovely sloped hillside surrounding you. Raspberries were nearly ripe too! I loved the location and proximity to beautiful trails.

A peaceful little slice of paradise. The cabin is so cozy and we slept so well with the sound of the creek right outside the window.

Jim Bridger historic cabin 3
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.

It was very scenic and had a nice river flowing next to the cabin. The fireplace inside the cabin was really nice as well.

We spent two nights at Josh’s van site. We came in late both nights after long days at Yellowstone. The land is beautiful and very private. There was a creek right next to the site which was very soothing while sleeping. We had a mule deer stop in to say hello. If you are driving up there after the sun goes down, watch out for elk on the roads. They are plentiful! Thanks so much Josh!

Magical, that's how I'd describe this site ✨️ Nestled along the creek, relaxation comes easily. And wow, it was a treat to have such a level site! The picnic table and firepit make the spot so cozy. But, there is also a nice grassy area. It is right on the road, but the way it's positioned with the trees/shrubs, it's not noticeable. And I'm sure we had more traffic than normal being a holiday weekend, yet, it didn't impact our stay at all. Great base camp location for all the grear hiking in the paradise valley. Amazing site; we'll be back! 🏕

Explore your wild and adventurous side and make a point to stay here! I am a new sprinter van owner and this was my first Hipcamp stay in it. I am usually a tent camper. The van allowed me to experience something like this, feeling a bit more safe while I was on my own for my journey home with the van. Close to amenities in Chico Hot Springs but remotely tucked away on beautiful private property nearby. Directions were easy and I always had cell service (AT&T).

Beautiful view of the mountains and a great little get away! The stream was wonderful to have access to and just to hear it in the background. Cabin was adorable and with close access to the Chico Hot Springs and their amenities. Definitely staying here again

We have stayed at all three of Josh’s cabins up historic Emigrant Gulch and it’s always been a good time. Nothing but beautiful trees, mountains and silence. The cabins are nice and always have plenty of firewood to keep you warm through the night (we have stayed up there twice now in the winter with temps below 20 degrees). The outdoor range is a plus and the compost toilets are sooo much better than a classic outhouse pit. Always a pleasure to stay in one of these cabins with this Looke’s Mill being the most spacious and family friendly. Josh and fam’s hospitality and quick communication is excellent.

Josh gave great directions and the cabin was so cute and surprisingly well lit! The stream provided very calming white noise, the bed was pretty comfortable (it reminded me of an hammock in a good way) and the outhouse was only a quick walk away. Would definitely stay here again!

On our way to Yellowstone, my partner and I opted to spend a couple of nights on Emigrant Creek in Lundy’s Cabin—and we were so glad we did! This is a beautiful oasis with a creek that runs right behind the cabin and a good number of beautiful hikes nearby. The cabin itself was cozy, with a gas stove to heat the room and some cute Christmas lights for after dark. I’d absolutely come back when I am next in Yellowstone area!

Awesome little cabin with a creek running next to it. It was an awesome place to stay while we hiked and scouted in the area for hunting. Chico hot springs is near by as well.

It’s a perfect little one room cabin with no bathroom no sink no running water just beautiful views of the mountains and the constant sound of a running stream. Bring a little buddy propane space heater bring an LED lantern for the bedside because it does get dark and it does cold !
I loved every minute there

We absolutely loved our stay at cabin #3. It was the perfect blend of comfort & solitude, and the surrounding area is just beautiful. We hope to visit again!

Oh my goodness… What a little piece of paradise. The cabin was so charming right by the creek… tucked away in the pines!! The views were breathtaking, especially the sunsets. I would recommend a high clearance vehicle as the terrain was somewhat sketchy.… But once you arrive, you will be sad. You didn’t stay longer.!

The location was remote and beautiful. We loved the stream nearby for sleeping and playing. Inside the cabin, the main bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of room for the two cots without feeling crammed. The outhouse was clean and we appreciated the solar powered lights in the evening. Stargazing was incredible!

After several days of tent camping, this cabin was a bit of rustic luxury for us! The rushing stream adds some nice white noise, the outhouse was the cleanest I'd encountered, and the front porch is a lovely place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee before a day of exploring Yellowstone. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous and calming. You may want to make sure you have a sturdy vehicle to get down the rough gravel road, and bring a sleeping pad or inflatable mattress for the rope platform bed. Do not miss the Chico Hot Springs, just down the road, for an awesome dinner, drinks, and a soak. I will absolutely be back!

This little cabin was honestly my favorite part of my trip, and I wish I could've stayed longer :'-) the creek behind the cabin was such a good backdrop for noise while sleeping, it was so peaceful & serene. Also bonus is that there are a few very cute yellow bellied marmots who would be sunbathing on rocks by the creek when I'd wake up to go sit by the creek and sip some tea! The views are incredible, the cabin is so cozy, the wood burning fire was nice for the cooler nights when it stormed, and the outhouse is super well-maintained and clean! This is definitely the place to stay if you want a unique getaway that doesn't break the bank, and is also a reprieve from either tent camping, or a very cool glamping experience. About 10 mins away from Chico Hot Springs, which was a very cool discovery, and about 40 or so minutes from Gardiner, and Yellowstone! Thank you so much Josh for your hospitality :)

Great site! Tucked away into nature but close to amenities at Chico Hot Springs. Awesome little creek next to the site that was fun to play in for our family of four and provided natural white noise for sleeping. Only downside was that the fire pit was perpetually wet so we couldn’t use it. Highly recommend.
