Not a five-diamond resort. It nails the vibe—handcrafted log furniture, gas fireplaces, and oversized jet tubs in select cabins.

We had an amazing stay at The Hibernation Station while visiting Yellowstone! The location is perfect- super close to both the park entrance and town. The cabins were spacious, comfortable, and stocked with everything you could need during your visit.What really stood out, though, was the incredible staff. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. A special shout out to Amanda and the lovely lady who works in the office at night (so sorry I didn’t catch your name!). You both made our trip even more memorable.Highly recommend The Hibernation Station and we can’t wait to come back!

My fiance and I stayed at this location while visiting Yellowstone as part of a 10-day national park trip.The location was great - very close and accessible to downtown either in a very quick drive or a reasonable walk. We went in September so it was still warm and the A/C unit within the room worked great.The rooms were very clean. There were 4 of us and our unit had 2 queen beds. The unit also came with a full cooktop/oven and cooking supplies which was great to do some basic home cooking to prep for our days in the park or if we didn't feel like eating out when we got back.The property has a great view of the sunset. My friend and I enjoyed it sitting by the fire pit in front of the waterfall. The property also has a hot tub for members and a game room. The games were nice and well kept and the front desk offers free coffee, tea and hot cocoa during their office hours.The front desk also offers free ice buckets when using the room container but any larger amount to fill, say, coolers, requires a purchase of bagged ice.All around a great experience and my colleagues enjoyed the stay. Would absolutely consider for a future trip to Yellowstone.

We have stayed here twice, once for our honeymoon (in just a basic cabin) and once for family vacation(in the south fork series). While setting up the reservation for our family vacation, Amanda went above and beyond to make sure we had a cabin that would fit all 5 of us. Even calling me back to ensure my booking had everything we needed! Then when we decided to extend our stay, even though they were having computer troubles, her attitude was upbeat, courteous, personable, and attentive. The cabin was great, but the service Amanda gave was absolutely TOP notch and she was truly the highlight of our stay in my opinion.

About a 5-minute drive to the West Entrance, with the property being three blocks from the gate area.
Peak season runs May 23–October 31; advance booking is strongly advised due to high demand there.
Yes, in select cabins (Southfork, Grayling, and some Beaver Creek). Fees apply: $50 per night per dog, up to $250 per stay.
