Brook Trout Inn Cabins & Mountain Homes

My husband and 2 grown children spent Thanksgiving Week at the Kozy Cabin. This was our (my husband and my) second time staying here. The cabin had everything we needed: Full kitchen, small appliances (coffee maker, blender, crock pot, rice cooker, waffle iron, toaster, can opener), table for 4, a king bed for us, a couch for one kid and a floor for the other :) Heater in the bedroom and electric stove/furnace in the family room. We wanted to spend this family time together, as both kids will be out of the house/college in the next few months. Cabin is very cozy (Kozy), but we were never in each other's spaces. TV (Dish), Internet available. We did a lot of walking in the neighborhood of other cabins/homes and took in the beautiful scenery. Got snow our 2nd day (through Thanksgiving); Bill brought up his snow plow twice and cleared the snow so we could get out if we needed to. We went into town only once, having gotten all of our supplies before check in. West Yellowstone is only a short drive away. The cabin is not fancy, but it has everything you'll need. We enjoyed our time again, and hope to be back in the summer.

We loved our time here. The cabin truly is cozy - the gas stove felt amazing on a cold day. The kitchen is spacious and generally well stocked. The bed is comfortable and firm. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful. It was an easy drive to West Yellowstone and the park. The setting of the cabin is stunning and great to walk around the "neighborhood".

Nice property with good amenities. Enjoyed stay and communication was great!

Simple and rustic just like we like it. Directions weren’t provided but a quick call to the manager took care of that. Just about 7 miles to the park entrance. Would stay here again.

We loved the cabin and had a great stay, the cabin is very clean, comfortable and well equipped. A door between the lounge and the bathroom would be a great addition and if that's not possible at least a curtain. The gas heater in the lounge is great but the thermostat doesn't seem to be working.

The open sofa bed was uncomfortable for my kids to sleep at and they had to sleep with us ... because of that we decided to skip the last night.

The cabin was exactly as the name implies -- cozy with great heaters in both the bedroom and living room. Very well equipped with modern appliances. During our one week stay we usually has both breakfast and dinner in the cabin, and prepared picnics for our exploration of Yellowstone. If there a way to give 4 1/2 stars I would have. Our only concern with the cabin was the pullout sofa bed. Our six-year old grandson was with us and had no complaints. Having laid on it for only a few minutes, I believe an adult would have found it uncomfortable. Great location with easy access to Yellowstone. We're glad we stayed there.

Due to a schedule issue, the owner Bill, upgraded us from the Kozy Cabin to the 4 bedroom, wonderful Bears Den just up the road. The house was fully equipped with everything 12 people would need, but it was just my husband and I. Bill was a gracious host and went out of his way to accommodate us. We had a great experience and we would recommend renting a place from Bill in the future.

Clean property about 7 miles outside of West Yellowstone. The king sized bed was very comfortable. The cabin was rustic with all of the modern amenities. We didn’t spend a lot of time at the cabin & when we were there it was raining so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy the deck. It is close to another cabin, but there is as no one there at that time.

Was impressed with it on line, it was close to the representation (pictures) just needs a little TLC especially the surrounding grounds, walkway, barbecue and perhaps some pest control. It was perfect for what we needed!!!

A+

We were very comfortable in the Kozy Cabin. It was in a beautiful setting and had all we needed for our stay. Bill was helpful on the phone about getting the TV to turn on.

The reason I say almost is that the location is not tucked away in some wooded area - but still has that feel of a cabin in the woods. The cabin is spacious, having everything that was advertised. We wanted something that was close to a town and an entrance to the Yellowstone Park. It was just my husband and I that stayed - but there would be plenty of room for 4 people.

The cabin was well equipmented with Samsung range, microwave, crockpot, blender, toaster, coffee pot, nice TV and comfortable bed. It had lots of room over a hotel in town that would have been much more.

We had a good time in the “Kozy Cabin”. The kitchen, living and bedroom have a romantic atmosphere. Love to sit on the deck. But, we have but’ s.... we couldn’t get contact with Bill upon our arrival and he didn’t answer our text-messages. Sleeping on the bed-couch was terrible. Couldn’t sleep on it. It’s an old, thin mattress. We had to fold it and lay it on the ground before we could sleep on it. It’s really time for a new sleeping couch!!! The environment is nice and quite. A 20 minutes drive from West Yellowstone.

Well if you ever need re- assurance about a very cosy place to spend a few days outside the Park, this is it.Called Kozy Cabin for a reason, and so nice to cook in such a well equipped kitchen, amazing stove, microwave, and all the usual kitchen utensils one would ever require.Bed very cosy and comfortable, bathroom with abundance hot water, TV with all the channels and what else...stay here!We enjoyed our stay for 3 nights.

Thank you, Jane! We're so happy that you loved the cabin. And we look forward to being your hosts when you visit the area next time.

Except that the sofa bed in the living room need replacement

Owner Response

Have a new ordered

The place had all that we needed

Kitchen is huge and lots of items. Deck is nice, good view, but noisy next to highway. Hide a bed is bad, need more blankets, only one for or hide a bed. Master bed is huge and comfortable. Overall good place.

This is a nice little cabin in a nice neighborhood. It is very convenient to West Yellowstone and Yellowstone NP. My wife commented that the stove and pots were the nicest we had during our six week trip (this was the 8th VRBO property we stayed in on the trip.) This appears to be an original log cabin with a couple of additions...very nice experience. Two complaints: 1) There is no door on the bathroom, only a curtain. (Not shown in the VRBO pictures.) This makes for very little privacy...even for a married couple. 2) The recliner is broken and needs replaced.

Owner Response

No room to put a door. Will take a look at the recliner. I will fix or replace it

The cabin was very clean! Bill was very responsive to our query. Only thing was that the sofa bed was not in the best shape. We had to take the mattress and sleep on the floor because the sofa bed would sink in the middle making it hard to sleep for 2 people. Other than that, it was very enjoyable stay!!

Owner Response

Will look into that to see whats wrong or AI will replace it

This cabin is exactly what was expected. It is about 7 miles outside of West Yellowstone as advertised. It contains a full working kitchen and refrigerator. The gas fireplace and heater in the bedroom both provide ample heat. My only suggestion for improvement is to install a bathroom door. Our nephew stayed on the pull-out couch, and the lack of bathroom privacy was annoying. However, for a couple this property provides an authentic cabin experience to explore Yellowstone.

Owner Response

No room for a door so I have a curtain to close the bathroom off

very clean every thing worked like it should

Bill is very Accommodating and communicates very well with you when you have a request. we had a question on the propane gas fireplace and he was there within 30 minutes to show us how to use it. it was beautiful there, we enjoyed our stay. we would definitely recommend

Place was perfect. Close to Yellowstone but just outside of town so you have some quiet. Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Definitely will stay here again on next visit!

Kozy cabin was everything we needed during our stay in early April. The Kitchen was stocked with awesome appliances, the gas fireplace warmed the house up quickly (which was necessary because it was still snowing), and is it weird to give the shower a 5 star rating? It is. Seriously, The Best Shower! The location was perfect, in my opinion. Close to island park, Henry’s lake and West Yellowstone. It was excellent cabin-living that was inexpensive. The landscape was beautiful, especially covered in snow. Hoping to return in winter to snowmobile. It was seriously perfect. Thanks to Bill for allowing us to stay with our kid and dogs. We had a great time.

Quiet, comfortable, relaxing accommodations. Very convenient to West Yellowstone and to Idaho. Thank you!!

We had a wonderful time!! The location is very convenient relative to town and Big Sky. We can’t wait to come back to Montana for an extended visit this summer.

Everything you need is in it. Nice gas fireplace, easy to dry wet snow gear. Bed was comfortable. Shower had hot water for a long time. Will stay here again in the future.

The cabin is adorable and stocked with everything you’ll need after some fun in the snow!!

Everything about our stay was great. The little cabin is rustic but very cozy. It's close to the highway but very few cars come up the road and we found nice trails and a beautiful view up beyond the cabin. This was very convenient for visiting West Yellowstone.

We loved it. Very clean, incredibly spacious. We made some huge meals at the cabin and the kitchen had everything we needed. Instantly hot inside using the gas heater. Can't wait to go again.

This cabin is perfect in every aspect. The location, view, amenities, there was not anything we needed beyond what was already here. Absolutely will stay here again.

Stayed here for a fall trip and it was the perfect size for my husband and I, as well as our 2 year old golden retriever. Very close to entrance of West Yellowstone and it had everything you would need for a week stay; cooking supplies, cable, etc. if we get a chance to make it back to Yellowstone we’ll definitely have to stay here again!

Kozy is exactly that. Clean and has all the things you need for a Yellowstone getaway. Highly recommend for small family or couple. Very close to center of town and park. Absolutely would stay here again. Great job Bill!!!!

The Kozy Cabin is very quaint and had everything we needed for a three night stay.

Small and cozy and easy access to West Yellowstone entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Perfect for a couple.

The cabin was very clean and nicely organized for visitors with plenty of room to accommodate 4 people. The hide a bed was very comfortable and relaxing for nightly sleep. The kitchen was well equipped with appliances to make meals throughout the day. It came with a dishwasher, refrigerator, coffee maker, crock pot toaster, and pancake griddle. The master bedroom is large with a comfortable bed and a heater that works very well. The inside definitely has the feel of a cabin with the wood log walls and fireplace. There is a nice view from the kitchen where one can see the mountains on the opposite side of the road. Proximity to Yellowstone Park really makes this an enjoyable experience and accommodation.

Very nice log cabin. Huge rooms, great fully- equipped kitchen, king size bed. Only 7 miles from town of West Yosemite and the entrance to Yosemite National Park. Dog friendly!!

That is West Yellowstone and Yellowstone National Park

Our stay was great! The cabin had everything we needed. The location was perfect! My husband and I slept on the fold out sofa in the living room and left the bedroom for my parents. My only suggestion is a sheet to cover up the old mattress. We only received a blanket and two pillows. Other than that everything was perfect!

Owner Response

There are sheets supplied

Loved this cabin! Such a great space and only took a few minutes to get to Yellowstone! We put good use to the grill outside and enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen. The king sized bed was incredibly comfortable! The fireplace was a favorite in the chilly early morning. There is a picnic table outside. Would recommend adding some more comfortable chairs for guests, as I would have loved to sit outside and relax more. Overall, great experience and highly recommended!

Single mom with 2 kids, came to Yellowstone and stayed in this GEM! My kids (12yrs. & 8yrs. old) and I had a great time cavorting around in Yellowstone and coming home to this warm, cozy and clean cabin. We felt safe and yet secluded enough with plenty of space between neighbors. There's a small creek running by and a wonderful deck to enjoy eating outdoors. Bill was extremely accommodating and easy to contact when needed! There was a lot of room for my kids to stretch and wrestle in and the King size bed was perfect for the three of us to sleep in! The bed was so comfortable, it was hard to get up in the morning! But of course, we forced ourselves to knowing there was the beauty of Yellowstone to tackle. Kitchen was perfect with PLENTY of counter space! Really can't wait to come again!

After a full day of exploring Yellowstone Park, this cabin is a wonderful way to end the day. The lodgepole bed is as comfortable as it is fitting for the cabin. A very spacious room, with a dresser and desk provides ample space to store luggage. The bathroom is well designed giving separate places to shower and get ready. I loved the kitchen; Bill has provided every kitchen appliance, or kitchen tool you will ever need. Very spacious, in fact the room became the workout room for our adult daughter to do exercises without getting in the way. The living area was spacious and very inviting. We couldn't find the Kozy Cabin lacking in any manner. I look forward to going back and spending more time at one of Bill's rentals.
