Beautiful stay
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Buffalo Pines! It is such a beautiful cabin with all the touches of home. Our dogs enjoyed the large fenced yard. Lots of room to sniff, run and play. America & Dan were wonderful to work with. Would definitely stay there again.

Fantastic!
I will definitely stay at Buffalo Pines again next time in the area. It is on the outskirts of Island Park proper which meant a quiet and peaceful experience. We went out exploring each day and it was always a treat to head "home" after a long day. The cabin is well equipped and the decor was truly delightful. Hosts Dan and America were quick to respond to questions. It was a slice of paradise! Thank you Dan and America for sharing this special place with folks like me.

Cozy little cabin
This is an excellent cabin. It was far enough outside west yellowstone to not deal with all the crowds, yet close enough that it was not a burden getting to the west entrance of YNP. The cabin was clean and cozy. We actually looked forward to going "home" after a long day of sightseeing. Much more relaxing than a hotel. America and Dan were excellent hosts and checked in periodically to ensure everything was going well.

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It was perfect for our family, the kids loved the loft. The gated area was great for our dog. The hosts communication was superb, exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Location was just right. Will definitely stay again.

Beautiful home
First time is Island Park and America was a great host. They had gotten a ton of snow just prior to our arrival and she made sure the house was plowed out and ready for us to check in. The home is beautiful and so comfortable and wonderfully decorated as well.

Short drive to Yellowstone
This is a cute cabin with plenty of room for our family of four. The main reason for our stay was to visit Yellowstone National Park and the drive was very easier -- about 20 minutes from the town of West Yellowstone which also was convenient for picking up supplies. (Gas was also much cheaper there than in Idaho.) Kitchen, living areas and bedrooms were all very nice and comfortable, and having access to laundry is always nice. Quiet and relaxing, with a nice backyard and front porch. The only downside is that during the day if the weather is warm, the house will be very warm when you return. Get those windows open as quickly as you can and it will cool off eventually, but if you get back late and hope to fall right asleep, it might be a bit warm. All that said, America was a GREAT host. She went over and above what could have been asked of her when we had a health concern during our trip and needed to figure out where we might be able to get care. She really was fantastic, and I can't possibly say thank yo]u to her enough. I hope you enjoy your stay. This is a really nice property.

Cutest little cabin
Overall we really enjoyed our stay here, there were some things that weren’t perfect but nothing by to where we wouldn’t come back! There was a guy who plowed the roads fairly often and even plowed the drive way which was an awesome added surprise! The dishes had a bit of a film on them and in the time of Covid, we had planned on washing them anyway. The inside of the dishwasher was dirty and the shower left something to be desired in the realm of cleanliness as well. However, often times when traveling with a dog it’s hard to find a nice dog friendly cabin and this one was super dog friendly and had a ton of space for us to walk him around the neighborhood. Only recommendations would be to have more hooks available to hang up snowy clothing and to have a printed welcome packet and / or guest book with the resources they email out prior to arrival. America and Dan were awesome hosts, super communicative and seem to be very genuine people!
