We booked this cabin as we wanted to spend a few days in a rustic place near to Yellowstone Park. This was about 20 miles away. The cabin was rustic and gênerally well presented albeit very small; the bed was nice, plenty of towels, a fridge, microwave, TV, kitchen sink, dish cloth and t-towel, and a coffee maker with some coffee. And small toiletries. But there were some things that could have made the stay better. The main one was that despite the kitchen area and fridge and microwave, we were given only one plastic cup and one paper cup for three nights stay, for $600. We asked for plates/cutlery and the kind men in the shop said they’d sort it, but didn’t. When we called management they said they don’t provide any eating utensils. I pointed out that we’d been promised them in the morning and it was now late (about 9pm). As we wanted to eat our food, they kindly provided two paper plates and some plastic knives and forks, but advised we could buy more at the store down the road. We are grateful for the paper plates etc but think this policy is flawed- there’s not much to buy to eat in Yellowstone, and there’s not much point in providing cooking and refrigeration utilities if you then don’t provide basic crockery/cutlery / it’s not something we packed in our luggage! We had to eat our pre-purchased breakfast out of the cups we were using for hot drinks! And you need more than one paper and one plastic cup for three nights stay. For this reason we wouldn’t go back. The doors and window frames also had gaps in so the nearby road noise was louder than expected. The shower was adequate in strength, and nice and hot. I wouldn’t recommend this cabin though if you’re a large person. The only other thing was the waiver you’re asked to sign on check-in which says you agree to pay 120% of fair value for any damage. But it doesn’t clarify that it applies only to damage that the tenant causes, and gives no opportunity to disagree with anything. For example, the microwave needed a bit of a clean (nothing drastic) but I wouldn’t want to be held responsible for a previous tenant if something hasn’t been noticed. We understand the need to protect the asset and maybe past experience has caused issues, but it needs also to be fair to the tenant. Overall, a nice little cabin, but policies let it down.
