All the staff was so friendly, you can tell they truly enjoy their job.
I definitely will be coming back either to the West Yellowstone or the Paradise Valley or maybe even a totally different location.

Stayed here with my girlfriend and it was absolutely amazing. We had the shared bathroom and shower which was’t as much of an inconvenience as we thought. Quick walk and with the lanterns they provide, even at night everything was easy. Would stay here again

It was an amazing experience, we enjoyed everything except the heater was awful you had to get up every 30-45 minutes to put more wood to stay warm. Which in return had you up all night on vacation. Everything else was wonderful.

We had an unforgettable stay at under canvas! Their service and hospitality were incredible, so warm and welcoming and anticipated every need. We were nervous about unexpectedly low temps overnight, but they were pro’s and ensured we had everything we needed for a warm and cozy stay. We loved the design and layout of our deluxe tent, it was so comfortable and smartly laid out. The sunset view was a bonus! We loved the laid back vibe of the common areas and the starry sky view of the Milky Way on our first night in Montana is not one we will ever forget. We are already planning stays at additional under canvas properties, I think we are hooked!

The experience of this property was alone 5/5 for me. We stayed in a deluxe tent and it was amazing! Staff was awesome and they have plenty of activities for all ages. Food was great! Make sure you are prepared for cold nights, that is my only advice! I would come back here in a heartbeat!!

Not all bad, but bad for me.
It was a disappointing stay, even though we were looking forward to staying here. The stove in the room was not working properly and smoke filled the room, causing the fire alarm to go off. Hotel employees fixed it once. The room smelled of smoke, but we were not offered a room change. Since it was cold and rainy outside, we did not request a room change. However the same problem reoccurred and the fire alarm went off again. We were afraid to use the stove and we stopped using it. We spent a very cold night and woke up freezing in the morning. My wife got sick because of the stove malfunction and could not enjoy the trip the next day. It wasn't all bad, but the stove made it a bad experience.

Fantastic location to stay while enjoying Yellowstone and the surrounding areas.
Tents are comfortable and well appointed but be prepared for cold nights as there is no electricity and the wood-burning stove only lasts a couple of hours.
Lodge is set up for fun and the team go out of their way to cater to your enjoyment.
