Very Charming Cabin
Very charming cabin. Very clean. Any questions with the manager were effortless and answered quickly. The quiet location gave us the perfect solitude we were seeking after our long days exploring the local areas and parks. We rode sxs and explored the area, explored Yellowstone, Grand Tetons etc. West Yellowstonenwas a quick drive away. Also loved the options that Island Park offered us just down the road like grocery, fuel and restaurants. The beds are very comfy and shower heads are AMAZING. Great location if you are looking for a place to unwind out of the hustle and bustle. I would definitely stay again.

Perfect stay for Yellowstone
Great property! Great location about 20 minutes from West Yellowstone. Very well stocked kitchen. House was perfect for our family of 6. Good communication from the hosts. My girls would have liked a mirror in the guest room with two beds (helpful when you have teen girls)! The bath towels, while "fluffy", tended to have a slight "musty" smell when they got damp...only noticeable for those in our group sensitive to smells; not that they weren't clean, just something that happens to towels overtime/with lots of use and it's probably time for replacements. Only issue we had was we had to be on the road very early on our checkout day... according to the check out policy, to avoid an extra fee, all the towels had to be fully laundered. So that meant no one could shower in the morning and we had to use paper towels for brushing teeth, cleaning up in the kitchen etc. in the morning. But all in all, we loved the place and would most definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

Beautiful cabin for your next adventure's home base.
The Cedar Rest cabin was the perfect place for our family's vacation getaway. It was our base camp for adventures in Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone. It was a little far from Grand Teton... But it was nice to stay at the same place for the week, rather than move a couple times on vacation. The kids enjoyed having their own space and the cabin was well stocked with anything you could need. The host was great to work with and very quick with communication. One of the best vacation rentals we've ever stayed in!

About the host

Hosted by Shawna

Host profile image
We have been experiencing the Island Park and West Yellowstone area since the early 90s. Nikki & Bill enjoy fishing, boating, hunting, snowmobiling, hiking and x-country skiing. We love the area and all the recreational opportunities available right out your door!

Why they chose this property

We decided on Island Park due to the location and recreation potential. We live in central Montana and for a quick drive we can experience all the mountains have to offer. It is centrally located between family and friends making the location even more desirable. We also have friends who are full time residents Island Park and West Yellowstone who we visit and recreate with regularly. We finally decided to have a home to call our own when we are in the neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is “Just Right” it is large enough to accommodate us and friends or family but not so large that we lose the cabin feeling. It includes all the comforts of home in a fantastic setting. The Aspen Ridge location is off of the main path so it is a great place to kick back after our day of recreating or catch the morning sun to plan the day ahead.
It is located close to all the fishing hot spots if you feel like wetting a fly, both Henry’s Fork and the Madison are close and fishing in Yellowstone Park is a hop skip and a jump away. When we lake fish, Henry’s lake or Hebgen Lake are both good options. The cabin is located in the Aspen Ridge Subdivision where the proximity to public lands access is fantastic. You can choose your sport by your mood in the morning. Perfect!
Bill and Nikki have chosen Moose Crossing Vacation Rentals to manage their cabin and ensure the happiness of their guests. Shawna and Rhonda are a small property management company and we take great pride in our rental cabins. We strive to make sure that the cabin is clean and comfortable for all of our guests. We appreciate you choosing our cabin for your vacation memories and hope that you arrive at a vacation cabin, but by the time you leave it feels like home.
