COMMENTS FROM PAST TENANTS
"... A spectacular house with incredible uninterrupted views of the Grand Teton—— close enough to the town of Jackson Hole to be able to pop out for dinner, and we found it clean and perfectly stocked with anything we might have needed. There are also fantastic jogging opportunities from right outside the property, and hiking trails just a few minutes away—— waking up to that view is worth the trip alone! We recommend it for a wildly out of the ordinary stay. We’ll definitely be back!”
B.G. Sacramento, California

“An experience our family will never forget and you are without a doubt a very gracious hostess— we had a huge Bull Elk come into your backyard a thrilling experience to view one so close…. Also a great treat to have mountain Rams come up to our vehicle on the road to the house! Several Coyotes and a Fox.” “We loved it and look forward to going back again.”
F.S. San Antonio, Texas

“We had a fabulous time, enjoying the views from the house, cooking in the well equipped kitchen, sitting on the veranda, exploring Jackson Hole, hiking in the Grand Teton Park and rafting the Snake River. The ranch makes for very comfortable living and it’s location is second best to none!"
C.H. England

“Wyoming completely won our hearts! The house was so welcoming and comfortable, the weather was perfect, and the scenery was The BEST!” C.S. Cary, N.C.
C.S. Cary, N.C.

"... Your home was just great: comfortable and warm, with spectacular views and location. My husband particularly enjoyed the heated stone floors!... But the highlight has to have been awakening on Christmas morning to the full moon setting over the Tetons and the sunrise just turning the tops of the mountains pink shortly after. It was magical, and an unforgettable experience...We were able to see coyote, elk, and big horn sheep every day in our drives back & forth to the house. Visiting the park in the winter after all our years of summer visits was just amazing...Enjoying the bald eagles and sighting a few moose as well...it was an incredibly special and memorable week."
S.H. Oakland, California

"...Wow! It is exactly as you described but even more so. As soon as we walked in the door we knew it was special and we appreciate your sharing it with us. Our guests too will be delighted when they see the house but we are glad they don't arrive for several days so that we can enjoy it ourselves...We are still exploring and learning our way around all that this beautiful house and setting have to offer."
A.H. Atlanta, GA.

C.P. California
"Don't even know where to begin. This was the best vacation we EVER had. The house was absolutely beautiful, comfortable and everything we could ask for. My family did not want to leave, but unfortunately we had to. The scenery was breath taking and not to mention all the wildlife we saw right in the backyard..... Coyotes, badgers, moose, sheep. pronghorn and plenty of colorful birds. My husband is not a coffee drinker but he couldn't wait to wake up in the morning and sit on the deck and drink a hot cup of coffee and enjoy the beautiful sunrise. We are back in the South sweating our butts off, wishing we were still there. We are definitely planning to come back next year. Thank you so much for having us in your lovely home and creating the BEST MEMORIES EVER. So sad to leave"

Magical
Very close to Jackson but feels like you’re a world away. Herds of elk in every direction (winter migration), big horn sheep on the road in/out everyday, and the most gorgeous views of the Tetons. The place is incredibly well stocked and the manager is very responsive. Highly highly recommend.

Elegant western comfort
Wow. Hard to describe. Photos and reviews just can’t do it justice. Amazing panoramic views of Tetons. Private, but 15 minutes to Jackson, 25 minutes to airport, and 35 minutes to GT Park. Uniquely elegant, authentic, comfortable, western decor and furnishing. Large home with plenty of space to accommodate our 7 adults. Everything you need is there. And did I mention magnificent, panaramic views of mountains from large decks and most rooms? I could go on. Have rented many large high end homes but this was by far our favorite. Hated to leave.

Marvelous Experience
While sitting on the back porch looking out over the beautiful Teton Valley, you would think you are the only person within a 100 miles. The Elk Refuge is your back yard. Yet, an easy walk or jog and you are in Jackson Hole with all of the fun things to do in town.

Fun stay, great views, disappointing back deck
Awesome views all around. Beautiful! But back deck was disappointing. There is nothing to block the summer sun and the deck was so bright and super-heated in the afternoon/evening as to render it totally unusable. Sun was essentially unfiltered and problematic even inside. And it you found some shade outside, flys were numerous and aggressive. Not until 8:20 PM were we able to emerge onto the deck. Also, firepit table was inoperative, another disappointment. Mouse traps were visible throughout the interior of the house and we found 3 mice in traps while we were there.

You walk in and at first glance it takes your breath away. Magnificent bronze pieces access this gorgeous log home. We enjoyed every morning and evening on the deck looking across the Elk Refuge at the Tetons. The house is spacious, set perfectly away from the hussle and bussle of life. The owners were great to communicate with. If you dont stay here at least once you truly are missing what Jackson Hole is all about

40th Anniversary Trip
The place was perfect for a large family. The separate bedrooms were spacious. Everything was welcoming and felt very “out west” the taxidermy and decor made it fun especially for the kids. We went in June and didn’t see tons of Wildlife but Teton Park Was a short drive. Would go back again for Sure

It's Just Hard. . .
. . .to not overstate the view this house has from the back! When we opened the front door, we walked past the expensive bronzes, oil paintings, and trophy heads to take in the expansive view of the Teton Mountains. We had hit gold! The house was both roomy and comfortable. We appreciated the well-appointed kitchen and laundry room, and the option to eat at the dining room table or at the bar in the kitchen. The pool table was also a hit! Comfortable beds, and towels a'plenty. The only trouble we had was dragging ourselves away from the view!
