1 Bedroom Cabin in Gardiner

Experience Ranch Life In the West!
Have you ever wanted to stay in a historic cabin on a ranch in Montana? Do you prefer peace and quiet? This cabin is located in a secluded place surrounded by nature and 2 streams, with no other cabins in sight. This cabin does not have cell service or wifi, but there is a land line. Truly unplug and get away from it all.
We raise American Quarter Horses, and generally have at least one new foal every summer. Last summer our cabin guests were fortunate enough to witness the birth! The ranch is also home to chickens, pigs, cows, dogs, and cats.
Enjoy horseback riding in the mountains, watching the pigs wallow in the mud, watching wranglers bring the horses in from the fields, watching calves play while their mothers graze, watching a farrier put shoes on a horse, seeing the newborn foals, hiking on the many acres the ranch has to offer, viewing wildlife in their natural habitat- these are a few of the many of the activities that go on here on a daily basis!
The Stermitz Ranch History
Rob's great grandfather, Joseph, was born in Slovenia, Austria in 1862 and worked in the coal mines from the age of 9. He later immigrated here from Slovenia with his wife and two children in 1892, following the promise of work in coal mines in Montana. When they arrived he was not able to find work. Joseph used his last $10 to buy a rifle in order to hunt to be able to feed his family. While here, a fire broke out in the Cokedale mines. Joe helped put out the fires and was noticed by the mine boss who asked 'who is that good worker?' Someone explained that it was an immigrant who couldn't find work. The mine boss then said 'Put that man to work. Anyone who works that hard for no pay deserves a job. The family, along with the addition of three more children, moved to the ranch in Cinnabar Basin in 1900.

Summary: We so enjoyed our stay at Creekside Cabin. Perfect for Yellowstone Park visit. Well appointed, comfortable king bed, great hot water in shower after long day. The host provided excellent directions and checked to make sure we were enjoying the property. Relaxing creeks made for peaceful setting. We loved “unplugging” for a few days.

Summary: A quaint, cute cabin next to a beautiful scenic creek. We greatly enjoyed our horseback ride with Cody ( his singing was a bonus ). The property is breathtaking and a great place to unwind. ( no cellphone or internet signal in this location). Stacy was very responsive to a couple small issues that were quickly resolved.

Summary: My family loved it here! A short drive from Yellowstone made for easy access anytime of day! My daughter also loved taking her first horse ride at the ranch! Olivia and Rachael who guided our ride were just perfect - knowledgeable about the history of the ranch, the area and immensely immersed in horses! The cabin was comfy, cozy and going to sleep with the babbling brook outside couldn’t have made for a more serene stay. Hope to make it back someday!

Summary: We thought the property was amazing and beautiful. The creekside cabin was great for unplugging unfortunately I am a bit OCD! Bring some fun along, cornhole boards or some card or board games, not much area for any diversion at the cabin but there is tons of beautiful area to hike and see. We enjoyed the horseback ride, we woke up to a fresh fallen snow in June, never see that in Oklahoma! The two hour ride was informative and fascinating, seeing those breathtaking views early in the morning was well worth it. This was perfect distance for our base of Yellowstone exploration and Gardiner didnt disappoint for tourism attraction and a fun night out! We saw several elk coming in and out of the basin and were very satisfied with our choice of location. Rich family heritage made it seem unique place to call our home for a few days, only wish I'd booked to stay a little longer. All in all we had a great time on a much needed vacay getaway!
