Cute Cabin near Yellowstone West Entrance
My wife and two daughters really enjoyed coming back to the cabin after long days of hiking at Yellowstone. The beds were comfortable. I loved the shower. The cabin was built with quality and decorated beautifully.

Amazing Location Close to Yellowstone
Our family loved our stay at the Buttermilk Country Cabin! It was the perfect location for our families week long trip to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. We loved coming back here each night. So close to Yellowstone but away from the busy town. Tucked quaintly into the forest it was so cozy and beautifully decorated. The cabin was very clean and the beds super comfy. Tara and Caleb were awesome hosts and very responsive to every need. We would totally recommend this cabin to anyone coming to Yellowstone. We’ll definitely stay here again if we ever come back. Thanks for the great stay!

Nice stay, but tight quarters
We had a nice stay at this cabin, but it was very close quarters! If the pull-out couch is pulled out, it is nearly impossible to get to the bathroom, which I would say is my biggest complaint. But it was very clean and relatively close to West Yellowstone. Owners were quick to respond.

Very Private Setting!
We absolutely loved our stay here. It was very secluded and away from the busy town of West Yellowstone. Upon arrival, Caleb greeted us and made sure we didn't need anything. The cabin is gorgeous! The stairs to the loft are steep, as mentioned in the description, but it did not hinder our stay. We attended the rodeo on our last night and it was fun! The rodeo also occurred on Friday night, but it was quiet in the cabin and we could not hear it. The property is beautiful and easy to access. We were able to cook breakfast with the portable appliances provided. The drive to West Yellowstone was short, and we also got to see plenty of neat places on our way. If we ever get the chance to return out west, we will try and stay here again!

Perfect getaway
My husband and I stayed here the first three nights of our honeymoon, and it was perfect! The communication was great; Caleb met us upon our arrival and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a long day of travel and arrived to a cozy place to rest for a bit. Some of the best night’s sleeps were in this house! Close to West Yellowstone which was convenient for our plans and offered options for food and drinks. We attended the Wild West Yellowstone rodeo on the property too, and it was a blast. We hope to return some day and spend more time here!

Super cute, quiet cabin.
Very cute cabin for a couple to enjoy some quiet time in. I wouldn't recommend having over 2 people here, as it is pretty tight. Rodeo was very fun along with a fun trail ride on the property. Close to yellowstone but even closer to harder, longer hikes in Montana if you're into that kind of thing.

Adorable Cabin in the woods!
My husband and I stayed in this cozy cabin for about a week. It has everything you need for your stay. It was wonderful getting to relax after a long day in Yellowstone and then to kick back and enjoy the evening in this place. The location is absolutely perfect. Close to the entrance of the park, restaurants, shopping and local attractions. The owners were absolutely amazing to work with. They kept us updated the whole time of what was happening after the flooding in Yellowstone. Its definitely a little piece of heaven!

Wonderful Montana cabin
Wonderful cabin in the woods with lots of charm and beautiful surroundings. Caleb and Tarah have a great spot to enjoy the woods and cabin. Trail around the property to take long walks and enjoy the views of their pond and the mountains in the distance. The horses and cattle at the rodeo were nearby for viewing and petting (if they were interested), We enjoyed having something just outside of the town for relaxing and away from the main hub of West Yellowstone shops. Cabin was a treat from our normal suburban living. Looking forward to seeing their larger cabin finished so we can bring family or friends for a visit.

Easy access to Yellowstone
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin! Caleb and Tarah were very responsive to us, greeted us as we pulled in and gave us all the privacy we needed. We definitely appreciated the bear spray. The cabin was a cozy place to come back to after hiking in the park and being out in the cold, as it snowed during our stay. The description of the cabin is very accurate so we were organized with food that we could easily prepare. The stairs were easy for us to navigate. The drive to the west entrance of Yellowstone was very simple and we were able to make it with a little traffic and minimal wait time. Thank you Caleb and Tarah for your hospitality!

Cute little place!
We really enjoyed staying at the cabin. It was perfect for our honeymoon stay and accessing yellowstone park! We would just suggest maybe bringing your own outdoor kitchen like a camp chef if you plan on cooking much besides on their BBQ. We brought ours and made all our own breakfasts as all the breakfast restaurants were already closed for the off-season. Really great place!

Hi there! We are the Oldroyds (Caleb, Tarah, Gracie, and Walker.)
Caleb was raised in Wyoming but spent his summers in Montana with his father enjoying the beautiful property that this cabin is located on. He builds log homes for a living and enjoys the outdoors and all it has to offer. Tarah was born and raised here in Montana. She has her degree in early childhood education but since having children enjoys her time as a stay at home mother. We met on a blind date and were married in April of 2016. We had our beautiful daughter in 2017 and decided to start our cabin rentals in 2019. We are hoping to add a couple more cabins within the next few years but for now just have the one cabin.

Why they chose this property

This property is located 6 miles outside of the town of West Yellowstone on a private 50 acres.

The owners do live on the property too but want you to know that their guest's privacy is very important to them.
