Yellowstone Valley Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

Beautiful spot right on the river, very secluded but close to bars and restaurants in Emigrant or Livingston. We would absolutely come back.

We absolutely loved our stay! We only wish we could have stayed longer!

The staff could care less about the guest because most guest as here one night. It's boring here!!!

The property itself was beautiful and in fairly good condition. The staff was friendly and there were plenty of amenities. My biggest disappointment in staying here would be the cleanliness. When we arrived at our cabin, the floors were quite dirty and there was even a dead bug on the floor by the bed. My husband and I stayed at the lodge for 6 days, and not once did we receive housekeeping. We asked and were told that we would receive housekeeping halfway through our stay at the lodge (about 3 days in), but housekeeping never came the entire time we were there. Also, the walls of the cabins are very thin and it didn’t feel private at all. We could easily hear the conversations of the people in the cabin next to ours from inside. Overall I did enjoy my stay here, and the lodge is a good place to stay. But given the price, I would have preferred to spend my money elsewhere where I would get a better quality experience for the amount I paid.

Quiet, pleasant room with amazing view. On site restaurant had limited dinner options on the higher end of cost and taste, ( not for everyone liking ). Complementary breakfast has simple but filling.

We stayed four nights in a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom cabin, which was perfect for two adults and two kids (10 and 14), and had a wonderful time! The location is great: 20 mins to downtown Livingston, 30 mins to Yellowstone, and 40 mins to Bozeman. The cabins were tidy and the beds were comfy. The kitchenette contains a fridge, microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, dishwasher, and dishes. We were bummed there wasn't a stove since we brought our own coffee accessories to enjoy the coffee we picked up in Bozeman, but we made do with using the coffee pot to boil water. Get yourself out on the deck and enjoy the morning and the view! Breakfast was phenomenal (thank you, Lisa!) and some of the items we devoured were the breakfast pizza, apple fritters, pancakes, huckleberry cinnamon rolls, egg scramble/casserole, and the breakfast sandwiches. The cabin does share one side of walls with one other cabin. Our neighbors were loud until 11:30pm one night, but it only affected me as a light sleeper. (Story of my life.) The emailed guide we got ahead of our stay was super helpful to have. The cabin also contained a paper version as well. We booked horseback riding well in advance and made sure to visit some of the local establishments listed and did the hike to Pine Creek Falls (with borrowed bear spray from the office). Kevin and Danielle are friendly and welcoming. A good thing to note is that the office closes at 7pm so be sure to arrive with enough time to check in. Also, book early and stay before peak season! We had to adjust our trip by a week due to a kid activity conflict and we were able to reschedule without issue since we visited on the earlier side of the season.

Our stay was absolutely amazing. The scenery is beautiful. The cabins are cute. We stayed in a 2 bed/2bath. My only complaint would be that the couch and beds weren’t very comfortable. However The view from the back porch was breathtaking and relaxing. We enjoyed seeing some animals in the morning as we were drinking our coffee. It was nice they had onsite laundry facility so we could wash our clothes. The staff is very friendly. My son and I caught a stomach bug during our travels. Unfortunately it hit us the day we checked in. We are grateful the kitchen staff was able to accommodate us. Thank you again! My husband and father in law said the food was good. We ate dinner 2 nights here and breakfast every morning. We have already recommended this place to our friends.

We wrapped up our Yellowstone trip with 2 nights here. The cabins were supremely appointed, the bed amazing and views from the patio of the mountains and Yellowstone that were breathtaking! The staff was friendly and helpful and their on site restaurant for dinner is amazing!

The beauty and serenity. The setting was beautiful and the staff was friendly and responsive
