Amazing property
Let’s start with WOW… from the time you pull up the driveway to the time you enter to see your view for your upcoming stay… that’s the word that will resonate! WOW. The views are spectacular, the accommodations are even better. This house is stocked with everything you would possibly need.. if you forgot it and they don’t have it, you probably don’t need it. They have thought of just about everything to make your stay magical. It feels like a home away from home to the point you never want to leave. I will be a repeat visitor and will share this beautiful spot information with anyone who wants to visit one of the prettiest places on earth.- Anonymous U from Jacksonville fl, Posted: 10/25/2025
Hands Down THE BEST vacation! I'd leave 100 stars if possible!
Little Lodge and Montana has been hands down the best vacation I've ever had. Photos do not do the scenery justice. It's breathtaking. Little Lodge is beyond adorable. It is by far the best well-stocked vacation rental I've ever used. The location is fabulous, the beds are so comfortable and you have all the amenities of home. We did not need to buy anything but groceries. The attention to detail in the decor and amenities were many cozy, personal touches. This lodge is 30 minutes from Livingston, which is a post-card, small-town dream and 30 minutes in the other direction to Yellowstone. There is an abundance of things to do, or nothing at all if you just want to sit back around the fire pit and take in the majestic views. I did not want to leave and I will 100% go back. I cannot recommend this lodge enough! WOW!!- Anonymous from Brunswick, Posted: 10/9/2025We agree Amanda! This home is perfect in every way! We are so glad that you enjoyed it!- Key Montana staff, Posted:
Incredible Views
The location and views and little lodge were stunning and some of the best I have experienced in a vacation rental! The cabin decorating and little lodge branding was also fantastic. They really thought of so many little things from travel coolers to corn hole boards. Very impressive. We had a couple issues at the property that key Montana responded to quickly.- Anonymous from East Grand Rapids, Posted: 7/20/2025we enjoyed hosting you and your family. We are sorry for the few issues during your stay but they do seem to be fixed now!- Key Montana staff, Posted:
Breathtaking Views!
Wow! What an amazing stay. The Little Lodge at Emigrant Peak was very well organized, clean, and had EVERYTHING you need and more! The lodge is designed for all ages with something to do for everyone. The views are nothing short of amazing & the bed was super comfy! The town is so cute. You are 30 min from the historical town of Livingston, 30 min from Yellowstone & 10 minutes from groceries and the Old Town Saloon. It was a perfect stay! We made forever memories here.- Anonymous from Youngstown, Posted: 6/22/2025We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay and our home. Please come back and visit us again anytime- Key Montana staff, Posted:
