How to Get There

South from Livingston about 15 miles, and located at the mouth of Mill Creek Canyon.

The House

A beautifully furnished and fully equipped 1,300 sf historically restored log cabin, with large private outdoor patio.

• Living Room – The Living / Dining Room is beautifully furnished and cozy, and includes a stone fireplace. A crackling fire, good book, or good friends (or all of the above) will only make this room more comfortable than it already is. The Dining area includes an antique hutch and dining table with seating for 4. A rustic armoire holds a TV/VCR for those who need to stay in touch with that far away world.
• Bedrooms and Bathrooms - The cabin has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The Master Bedroom has a beautiful wrought iron queen size bed. A full bathroom with a clawfoot tub/shower is adjacent. The second bedroom has a western décor and includes queen size bed. A small bath with tile shower is included in the room.
• Kitchen - The kitchen is open to the Dining and Living area, and is fully equipped for your convenience. We were able to salvage the original wood/electric Majestic range and the ‘50’s vintage refrigerator, and have included those in the kitchen. Along with a dishwasher and microwave, the “antique” kitchen offers all the comforts of any home.
• Utility - The cabin has a washer and dryer located in the utility room off the main bathroom.
• Outdoor Living - The outdoor patio includes a historic outdoor brick fireplace.

Activities

Hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and all that the Absaroka-Beartooth Mountains and surrounding mountain ranges have to offer is nearby. Numerous Forest Service trailheads providing direct access to high mountain lakes and magnificent mountain peaks in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness are available a few miles up the Mill Creek Road. A fishing access to the famous Yellowstone River is about 3 miles from the cabin, and fishing can be accomplished either on your own or through the many outfitters available in Livingston. Of course the Madison, Gallatin, Bighorn, and other popular rivers are within a day trip away. Yellowstone National Park is about 35 minutes from the cabin, and is a must see. Horseback riding is also available through outfitters in the area. Don’t rule out a winter visit either as the area provides excellent cross-country skiing opportunities.

Chico Hot Springs (a historic natural hot spring) is about 6 miles to the south, and offers a magnicient restaurant, a western bar (with the occasional dance), and of course swimming.

A Personal Note

This is the newest addition to Cabin Creek. We have truly enjoyed renovating this cabin, and recreating a feeling of the old west that we think you will find very comfortable. We had to keep the outdoor privy as a reminder of how things used to be. Deer are frequent visitors to the yard, elk have been viewed on the nearby slopes, and we have heard wolves in the adjacent foothills. Modest in size, the warmth and comfort of this cabin has exceeded our expectations, and it is our hope that by opening this cabin, we can provide an opportunity for you to enjoy some of the best that Montana has to offer along with a glimmer of our past.
