2 Bedroom Cabin in Silver Gate

Get away from the highway! The Silver Willows "Ursa" cabin is the sister cabin to Silver Gate's highest-reviewed rental property, Sarva ("The Moose," VRBO #316248).
This cabin is situated in the eastern meadow of a four acre parcel of land, bordered by pine and aspen trees to the west and north, with Soda Butte Creek a stone's throw away. Tall pine trees ensure privacy between the two cabins. The property is located on the south side of Soda Butte Creek, so you'll be away from the highway traffic that runs through town.
This cabin comfortably sleeps 4 (1 queen bed, 2 full beds), with an added raised air mattress available for a fifth guest. Please note that a fifth guest will invoke the $30/night extra persons fee.
Ursa is found in the small town of Silver Gate, Montana, 1 mile outside of Yellowstone National Park’s northeast entrance and 3 miles down the road from Cooke City. The Silver Gate/Cooke City area is popular with wolf watchers (the Lamar Valley is a short drive away!) and park visitors looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the larger border towns, as well as winter sports enthusiasts who come to take advantage of the recreation opportunities in the Beartooth Mountains.
The Silver Willows property is located away from the highway on 4 acres of woodland bordered by Soda Butte Creek, which runs through the property on its way into Yellowstone National Park. This cabin sleeps up to 4 people on a queen bed (in the master bedroom) and 2 full beds (in the loft), all with memory foam mattresses. It's a great option for smaller groups and families, while larger groups may want to consider the Sarva cabin.
Because the property is south of the highway, snowmobilers have quick access to the Bannock Trail and can ride directly from the property to the backcountry sledding areas beyond. In 2016 we added additional trailer parking areas on the property for those hauling in their sleds.
Whether you want to enjoy the wonders of Yellowstone, a quiet picnic at the creek or a snowmobile ride in winter, Silver Willows is the perfect getaway.

Summary: It was an amazing 5 days at the Ursa Cabin and Yellowstone, and we were not ready to depart!! The cabin was so comfortable, quiet, beautiful, with all the comforts of home. The surrounding scenery was phenomenal, and the wildlife did not disappoint! We leave with several stories & highlights, and many pics and videos!!

Summary: We absolutely love the location and convenience of this property. Easy access to NE Yellowstone region. Well stocked kitchen for most cooks needs. Comfortable

Summary: We stayed 5 days in September, the cabin is well appointed, comfortable and clean. The ladder to the loft could be an issue for some but I don't know how it could be laid out any better. A great home base for exploring Yellowstone. We were not able to find a trail to the creek, it was overgrown/could use a weed wacking. Not a big deal since the weather was not ideal for outside sitting. We did enjoy the front porch when we could and loved seeing the lone bison come by. There are neighbors but we did not see or hear anyone. The other cabin on the property is near but there are trees in between, so no issues with privacy. I would recommend this property to others.

Summary: I spent 4 nights in this house a short drive down a gravel road from the highway. There are several adjacent properties but all are partly screened by trees and it is a quiet neighbourhood. The inside of the property has comfortable and good quality furnishings' and appliances and is very clean. It is about a mile from the entrance to Yellowstone National Park, and this is one of the quiet entrances so no waiting in line!. I greatly enjoyed my stay here and I would happily book this property again.

Summary: A really nice place. Not as secluded as it looks in the pictures, but it’s a small little town and everything is just kinda all together. The cabin is really nice and homey and has everything you could need for cooking . And you will want to cook because there isn’t much as far as restaurants go. But it’s by far the most beautiful entrance to Yellowstone.

Summary: The home is clean and welcoming. We very much enjoyed the full kitchen and made sure we stocked up on groceries in Bozeman which was great advice. We wish that the place was more private and easier access to the Soda Butte creek, but certainly peaceful spot.

Summary: This property is on my top 10 of VRBO rentals (and I rented many vacation homes in MT over last 20 years)! Despite the close proximity to the highway running through town, you barely hear the vehicle traffic noise. The access to and wading accessibility on Soda Butte Creek is great--reason for my stay here and this area (FISHING!). The cabin was top-notch (and larger than anticipated from the pictures). Very modern, yet great "rustic" feel. Love the covered porch facing the treed meadow and creek (wished it was a little more cleared of the trees to be able to see the creek and mountains more--but still very relaxing space). Impressed with the owners' prompt responsiveness to questions prior to arrival and their "welcome call" night of arrival. My only comment, and it is a suggestion and not complaint, is that the ladder up to the loft is a bit unnerving. It is at a very steep angle so easy to climb up but getting back on ladder and down was a careful challenge. It may not be so bad if the ladder was pulled out more at bottom to give more of an angle like a staircase... One final comment which is a minor complaint (and suggestion): replace the charcoal grill. In sum, rent this property. I did a lot of research for lodging in Silvergate and Cooke city area and saw the other properties/lodging properties once I got there. This is a must rent--far exceeds other options.

Summary: Cabin was very clean, beds were comfortable, and peaceful location. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking dinner each evening. Location is great for exploring Beartooth and Yellowstone.

Summary: Pictures show a very nice cabin, but it was even bigger and nicer than I expected. The kitchen was very well appointed, had everything we needed. The owners did not skimp on any amenities, and in fact, supplied the unexpected (shampoo, shower gel). Super clean (thank you, Jessie), super nice, and super owners (easy communication). We really enjoyed the well-stocked movies, books, games, and Max's amazing photography. We had need of nothing. My children didn't want to leave. Beautiful property. My favorite was watching wildlife from the porch. Soda Butte Creek was only about 40 ft from the porch. It runs too fast (early June) to fish, but I would expect good fishing later in the summer. A lone bison grazed every morning next door (we referred to him as Barry). I was really bummed that we never saw a moose in the park, but on our return to the cabin the last night, there was one in the yard! Happy danced again the next morning as we were packing up because we saw a mama moose and her calf across the creek. We would definitely stay here again, and I'm already recommending it to everyone I know😊

Summary: Stop your search! If this property is available, book it now. We were thrilled with the location (just a few minutes outside the Yellowstone n/e entrance) and privacy during our stay. We have stayed in many rental properties and this one rates right at the top, based on location, layout and amenities. We loved the beautiful pinewood interior, spacious cooks kitchen with island, spacious livingroom with vaulted ceilings and comfy seating. The queen bed had nice bear flannel sheets and was very very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious, with a step in tub shower. The water pressure was great for showers and as hot as you need it. The full sized stackable front loader washer and dryer are also in this space behind doors. The wi-fi was fast and we were able to keep in touch with our family at home. Cell phone calls don't work up here but there is a land-line that can be used if necessary. In fact, one of the owners called to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. The owners (Max and Jenn) take pride in this property and communication is great! We drove into the park several times through the Lamar Valley, which is rich in wildlife viewing and very few tourists in the Fall. We saw many bison, elk, fox and pronghorn on our hikes near the Tower/Roosevelt area. Hell Roaring trail was great! There is also a "secret" trail up the road from this rental, which was an absolutely serene, beautiful hike into the park. Loved it all!
