The Super 8 in Livingston, 54 miles from the north entrance at Gardiner, offered a room for $114. And those are the cheap end. I kept looking and found Lure Me Inn in Ennis, Mont. Sure, it's 70 miles from Yellowstone (an hour north on a highway with a 70-mile-an-hour speed limit). It's a beautiful drive that takes you past Quake Lake, formed in 1959 when a magnitude 7.5 earthquake dumped 80 million tons of rock into the Madison River and formed the lake. The Madison is a renowned fly-fishing stream for rainbow trout. The rate for a cabin with one bed was $75. I believe the cabins with two beds went for $89. The open room includes the bed, a dining table, a two-burner stove, refrigerator and microwave. Dishes, utensils and pots and pans were also supplied. There was also wireless Internet and DISH network television. The separate bathroom included a combination tub and shower. There was also a sitting bench and plenty of towels. Owners Melissa and Tom Rogers were friendly and clearly enjoy hosting people. They were a delight.

There wasn't room for anything else. The kitchen seemed to be well stocked until we wanted coffee. They furnished the a 12-cup coffee pot, but all we could find was 3 little bags of coffee that make 9 ounces each. If you don't wash the dishes you use, you get charged. I couldn't help but wonder who had previously washed my coffee cup. I ended up washing it before and after use.

The room included a full kitchen, which was a huge plus and gave us everything we needed during our stay. The location is excellent--right in town and close to restaurants, shops, and the north entrance to Yellowstone National Park. One of the highlights was seeing a moose walking through the neighborhood, which made the experience even more memorable. The heating and air conditioning worked perfectly, keeping the room comfortable regardless of the weather outside. Overall, Yellowstone Gateway Inn was clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and in a fantastic location. We would definitely stay here again.

Had a counter with coffee machine. Bed was not level. Headboard part of bed was 3 or 4 inches lower then foot area. The place outside was dirt road and rocks behind other buildings. Room was about 10 x 10 in size with 30" wide hallway to bathroom 5 feet long. The place was nothing like the pictures on their site. I checked in at 8pm. After hrs of trying g to get someone. We sent msg and checked out at 4am. A day early. Stay far away from this place. When we were there at least 4 other families were having the same issues. Expedia should be assumed for even listing this property. I wish I could attach more pictures

Mixed feelings! We would stay again though. This is NOT a…read morebudget or cheap hotel. And you're paying for newness, beautiful feel inside and outside, beautiful views. The daily parking fee, bathroom size in the room, and continental breakfast were all disappointing. We didn't know about the $20 per day parking fee when we booked it and they accidentally charged us $75 per day for our 1 dog, when they were only supposed to charge one $75 fee. Thankfully I caught it and called to have them refund us $150. The hotel is new, modern, & beautiful inside and out! Especially the gorgeous view of the river right behind the hotel!! The river is only a couple feet deep at its deepest so a safe place to fish and play with kids. There's great fishing right here! Massive trout!! The room was just ok. The beds weren't uncomfortable. We had 3 adults and 2 kids in our 2 queens and pull-out-couch-bed room. The bathroom/shower was just too small for a room that can sleep up to 6 guests. We did enjoy their free coffee that they have available 24/7. The continental breakfast was 2/5 stars. All the fruit they offered didn't look appetizing, I don't mind powdered scrambled eggs but I just couldn't eat theirs. They only offered sausage other than eggs and it looked very unappetizing. So unless you only eat cereal, bagels, and waffles for breakfast- you might not want to count on eating their breakfast, unfortunately.

The lake is small but offers pretty views, and there are several other fishable lakes and rivers nearby. The road in is very long (around 20 miles) and mostly dirt, so it can get fairly rutted and filled with pot holes. Definitely drive something in that's four wheel drive with some clearance. But wow is the drive beautiful with mountains and Centennial Valley views. The cabins were simple but well maintained. Very comfy beds, full bathrooms with good hot water. Off the grid, but powered by solar and propane generators. Food was excellent, especially steaks and baked goods. Entrees range from 15 - 35 for dinner. Lastly, Jake and Laurel were wonderful hosts - very personable and welcoming. They helped arrange some guided fishing trips for us that were fantastic.

The room is spacious and would be great with some investment in new furniture, some needed updates, and a very deep clean. It has a great location with a lovely view of the lake. But... It was unclear where the office was located. There wasn't an office sign. Clutter stacked around the doors including an old beat up piano - maybe a remodel project is going on? We watched and killed flying insects coming into the room from a crack under the door. We left the spider that was there to hopefully catch the ones we missed. Mattresses were low grade and old. The beds and pillows were sprayed with some kind of strong chemical scent/deodorizer - the entire room smelled what we guessed was Odo-ban. my daughter with Asthma was unable to sleep in the bed and had to sleep on the futon under our jackets. There was no extra bedding for the futon. Bedroom furniture was very old particle board that was water warped, chipped, and abraded on the edges. Stove was filthy - the drip pans were rusted and full of burned on food. Appeared like they hadn't been cleaned or replaced in years. The refrigerator was old and the racks inside were rusted. The dishes were stored under the sink beneath the drain trap, which feels very unhygenic. $15 fee if you left any dirty dishes. We were really looking forward to spending the day enjoying the beautiful view but instead we are leaving as quickly as we can. We are looking forward to getting to our next hotel to shower and finally rest comfortably.
