AFFORDABLE Glorified Basecamp -"The Bird House" | Apartment in Livingston
1 Bedroom Apartment in Livingston
We keep our prices low so that people can afford to stay in this beautiful place. If you are looking for an affordable "glamping" spot - this is it! The Bird House (BH) is a cute apartment above an art studio/workshop in the beautiful Paradise Valley - 30 minutes from the north entrance to Yellowstone National Park.
IMPORTANT - the guest house does NOT HAVE AN INDOOR SHOWER. It has 12 steps to access the living space. We do have a gorgeous outdoor shower. We are also only 8 minutes from Chico Hot Springs, we offer our guests Chico tokens (one per person/one time only) for the natural hot springs pool and shower, if our outdoor shower is not available due to weather.
The BH has a small kitchen area with a hotplate, three options for a coffee maker, a toaster, and a refrigerator, as well as a small BBQ grill outside. In the bathroom is a sink and a toilet.
The Bird House has an adorable main room, filled with original art, books, TV, and internet. There is a queen-sized bed with luxurious bedding, and also a single bed. (We also have a double blow-up mattress if needed.) The occupancy of the Birdhouse is 3-4 people.
The windows look directly out at beautiful Chico Peak, and just a little further south is Emigrant Peak. Both peaks are framed in the window directly across from the bed. It is located in a small, extremely quiet neighborhood with close proximity to Mill Creek and the Yellowstone River. We have an outside grill and picnic table for your use.
Right behind the BH is a large organic garden, and we are happy to share veggies and flowers with our guests when available and in season. There is available parking right at the entrance to the BH alongside the steps. Please don't block the driveway.
PLEASE NOTE THE APARTMENT IS UP A FLIGHT OF 12 STAIRS. It has solar lighting for night arrival. We live on the property, but our many guests over the years have assured us that it is a quiet, comfortable, private space.
It does take a certain kind of guest to appreciate this cozy apartment with its lack of an indoor shower. However, our guests seem to love the shower!
We are very close to several great places to eat:
Chico Hot Springs (4stars), Sage Lodge, The Old Saloon, Follow Yer Nose BarBQ, Wildflour Bakery, The Outpost, and Yellowstone Valley Grill. You are also about 15 minutes from Livingston, MT (north) and 20 minutes from Gardiner, MT (south). We have plenty of music venues near us if you are looking for nightlife. Check out websites for Pine Creek, Chico, the Old Saloon, and Sage Lodge.
Who are we? Both of us are retired career Park Service employees.
If you have pet(s), talk to us first. We love animals, but many people have allergies; there is a small additional cleaning fee of $10/night.
We sometimes offer river shuttles if we are available, so ask us about that as well.
If you add a guest or have more than 4 in your party, there will be an extra night charged. Please, no drugs, no smoking, no fighting, or loud nightlife. Our guests tell us that they have the most restful, quiet sleep at our place.
When you leave, we ask you to strip your beds, empty and take all garbage with you. The closest dumpster is south of us on East River Road at the Chico green boxes. If this is a problem, talk with us about a trip to the dumpsters. Sometimes you can throw it in the back of our truck.
