5. New Home 4 Miles to Yellowstone

46mi from Cooney Reservoir State Park · 1 site

Walk to everything from this new home on Main Street located in the Coolest Small Town in America - Cooke City, MT! 4 miles to Yellowstone, NP with "the most scenic highway in America," The Beartooth Highway, and a short drive to the East. Enjoy a true mountain town experience in the Cooke City - Silver Gate area after a day of exploring Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding high country. The property is 100' x 100', and the house is 1,050sf. Everything in this house is brand new and was completed in July 2023. A large mudroom/gear room/laundry room sets the stage for your endless adventures in the Cooke City - Silver Gate area. We've done our best to set the kitchen up with everything you could need to make most standard meals - pots, pans, baking sheets, and coffee supplies. YOU WILL NEED YOUR OWN MILK/CREAMER, which you can get at the Sinclair or Cooke City General Store, a 3-minute walk away. Sugar, spices, and cooking oil on hand. For dining out, Cooke City has several summer restaurants. Easy to get basic provisions at The Sinclair and The Cooke City General Store - actually, you must visit the General Store, it's AWESOME! You can make a full meal from what they offer, but for more variety, shop in Cody, Livingston, or Gardiner before arrival. We keep cooking oil and spices at home. Whether you are renting to work remotely, need a basecamp for a month of wildlife viewing, or want to provide your family with a unique summer experience, this house will cover your basic needs with ease - shelter, kitchen, internet, and a shower. WE DO NOT HAVE A TV. THERE IS NO CELL SERVICE IN COOKE CITY and many places in the park and to the east into WY. You will want to use "calling over wifi" to make phone calls when you are in wifi, and using this option, your phone works as normal. NO SMOKING NO PETS We built this with our own hands, just the two of us! Thousands of hours of sweat, sometimes tears, a LOT of hard work, long days, missed skiing, and sacrifices. This is our home away from home, and we hope you treat it with love and care so we can enjoy the newness of it too :)

Weekend Trip to Elk River Camp At Wolfe Meadows

Great glamping site situated close enough to downtown Red Lodge for a bite to eat, yet just far enough away to enjoy the quietude and dark skies at night. Appreciated the easy communication with Cyndi and Brad as well. Would stay here again!

My daughter and I loved this unique stay during our travels in Montana. It was truly a highlight, and we loved meeting and talking to Kelli, who was super responsive, helpful and friendly. We slept well and enjoyed the views and visiting with the goats on the property. As long as you read the description and know what to expect, you will likely love this place as much as we did! Thank you, Kelli!
