Hillcrest Cottages

The nice cottage we stayed in had 2 queen beds & 1 twin bed. There was an air conditioner, stove top & mini refrigerator. |An elk outside our door was fun to watch. This place is so close to Yellowstone! We could cook on stove top. We had requested pots & utensils from the office. The best part is it was clean & best price in town! We drove through town & saw a bear with a cub, 2 deer & an elk with twins eating all on the Main Street. We loved it here.

I love this place. Stayed here 11 years ago and was really pleased it has kept its charm when we stayed again this summer. Nice to be able to just walk into town and visit the shops and restaurants nearby without having to drive.|Front porch of the cottage or benches at the front of the site great place to watch the world go by. Easily in reach of Yellowstone.|Clean and comfortable.|Good to see resident deer are still present in the town.

YES a must stay! Stayed 1 night between Yellowstone and into Montana. It was safe, cute, and most of all CLEAN!!! Had a small kitchen and with a regular size coffee pot! Thank you!!! We would definitely stay there again!!! Kudos to the staff and owner.

My love and I enjoyed our stay in a quaint little cottage. We saved money by giving up some convenience. The bed butted up against the wall. This meant one of us had to scooch down the bed in order not to wake the other one up in the middle of the night. The cottages are conveniently located close to many places to eat in town. It was also a straight shot out to the entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Our room was clean. The bed was comfortable. And the staff was friendly and accommodating.

This is such a convenient location. You can walk to the restaurants and shops. You are located in the middle of town. The little cabins have everything you need and super cozy. I would definitely book here again. Wildlife make appearances in the parking lot!

Stayed here last year and room e was nice and clean and an ok price. This weekend the opposite. The room was dirty. The pillow was covered in someone else’s hair, and the bedspreads and curtains were filled with acrid smoke. This made it difficult to sleep though we left the windows open all night. I would suggest giving bedding a good wash now and again.🙁 The price was jacked and not worth the accommodations.

Excellent option for staying in a beautiful town near the Yellowstone. Has a gorgeous view of Mountains and the river is just 1 minute walk away. Plus, you can see Elks in your yard in the evening time :)

Such a great sleep which is so needed for our planned 7 hr drive !! We got in late and found it such a comfy lil cottage. The shower itself deserves 5 stars, felt great after a 13 hours day of driving and exploring. The bed was bouncy but firm and pillows were perfect. Clean, quiet, and easy peasy check in and out. Thank you soooo much!! Also, the ac was great!!

Owner is 3rd generation and very friendly, dish TV for those needed downtime in between visiting the park or roaming around the town. Fridge is good sized and freezer holds a full bag of ice and room for other things like frozen water bottles. Full sized coffee pot , super cute and roomy. Plenty of parking in front of your cabin to help with loading and unloading the car.

Awesome place ! Clean. Quite can't wait till next year to come back!!!!! Owners are down to earth people , not trying o make a quick buck , they care ONLY about your comfort

I can't think of a better place to spend a sick day on a road trip that got as far as Gardiner, MT. The cottage is sweet. It's clean, well kept and quiet. It would be within walking distance of a good breakfast place and the Market, too, if I hadn't gotten sick. The woman who checked me in at the office was kind-hearted and another young man was patient with me when I couldn't return the TV to normal after not having read the perfectly clear instructions they provide about operation of the remote control in the perfectly obvious notebook. The pillows are wonderful and I'm feeling like I'm on the mend, but I really do just want to get home now.

Stay in a family owned resort than a cookie cutter hotel at higher prices. Quiet, & clean. So nice to have an individual house (cottage) Walk to dinner & shopping. Easy access to Yellowstone.

Charming, ultra-clean, well-lit, well-maintained, and reasonably priced. Excellent location, about a mile from Yellowstone NP north entrance. We booked last-minute for Aug 8 and paid $102 for a one-bedroom with a queen and two singles, which was plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 kids). Kitchenware is available (we didn't ask for it since we were only staying one night). The next morning, someone was weeding the little garden in front of a cottage - this just shows how much TLC these cottages get from the proprietors/caretakers. We would definitely come back here next time and stay a few days.

Such a nice stay before heading into Yellowstone. Cottages are clean and well-kept. A bit cramped, maybe. The staff was very friendly. Privacy and quiet was much appreciated.

Perfect with everything we needed. Coffee, kitchenette, pots, pans, dishes upon request. Great location in town, can walk everywhere with beautiful views!

Good for the location and price. We visited in August, and I did try to get a room in Mammoth Hot Springs, but all in my price range range were already taken, so I found Hillcrest Cottages instead. Its really close to the park entrance, and there was a gas station with mini-mart just across the street which came in handy, since we just missed the grocery store the night we came in and needed top up ice for our cooler. We did get a Ziploc bag of ice from the front desk when we checked in (upon request), but that was only enough for me to drink, with nothing left for our cooler--I do like my ice water!! We got a Queen room and it was TINY and I wish there were more hooks in the bathroom, but it was very similar to our Old Faithful cabin in Yellowstone, with the added luxury of a small microwave and tv. Ask for directions to the river hot springs in the park--its pretty neat!

Really cool little cottages to stay in. Reasonably priced and very comfy.

Best if you like budget hotels. Considering ynp and other hotels in the area this is a good bargain. Has microwave, mini fridge. If you dont want 120-140 dollar cottages inside YNP, its a good option.

50s style tiny, and I mean tiny, cabins a few blocks from the main street in Gardiner. Fine if all you want is an inexpensive place to stay, but the place lacks in many things. Mostly clean, though they didn't come to clean the second day we were there, and there was a small dead bug on the bathroom sink that never got wiped away. But the main problem is room size. If you are two people, each with a decent sized suitcase, you will find that there is nowhere to put a second suitcase. No dresser. A tiny wire rack with only three plastic hangers for hanging things. One itty bitty shelf in the bathroom. The bed is up against the wall on one side, so the person on that side of the bed has to crawl over the other to get to the bathroom. The place would work for one person but is pretty challenging for two.
