First of all let me start by saying that Tom and Judy are top notch hosts! The level of service we received during our stay was fantastic! While searching for a place to stay during our trip to Yellowstone we came across A River Runs By it Lodge on Trip Advisor. The reviews seemed pretty solid so we decided to... More

We spent 2 days at the inn. It is a beautiful, large home. My husband and I had 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom to ourselves. The owners are a very nice couple, very warm, make you feel at home immediately. Breakfast were great. We used their boat and went for a nice ride in a very tranquil river. The... More

Highly suggest staying here! The people who run it are so awesome, & it is in a great location! Breakfast was great! Besides Yellowstone, also visit Mesa Falls-so pretty; and the sand dunes. Grand Tetons & Jackson Hole were nice to drive to also.

We had a difficult time locating the gravel road entrance from the freeway due to it being rather inconspicuous but eventually found it and navigated the very long gravel driveway to the lodge. This log-cabin-style property is quite spacious inside with interesting architecture, knickknacks and souvenirs to look at, as well as two rooms upstairs for guests. Our room and... More

We were headed to Yellowstone but it was getting late and we were tired so decided to stay in Island Park, just 30 min. From the park. We typically go by the seat of our pants and wait until we know where we will be stopping for the day to begin calling for a place to lay our heads. We... More

On a recent visit to Yellowstone, we decided to go for a Bed and Breakfast. Being the first time in a B and B, we did not know what to expect, we were kind of worried. Tom and Judy made the place feel like home. We highly recommend the Lodge to anyone, Wonderful place!!!!! But mostly, wonderful people!!!! Thank you... More

what a wonderful time we had at the lodge. Cannot believe that I forgot to leave a review. Tom and Judy were the most welcoming of hosts. I highly recommend the lodge. Lovely locale, warm and comfortable lodging, delicious homemade breakfast and great camaraderie (hosts and other guests).

My husband and I stayed with Tom and Judy for three days while visiting Yellowstone. The lodge was lovely and they were the perfect hosts. Our room looked out on the river and it was everything I could have hoped for; tranquil and comfortable and locked in nature. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer. The lodge is... More

What a lovely B & B in an amazing setting on the river. Lovely big rooms, very clean and well appointed. We were well looked after by our hosts and breakfast each morning was really delicious. We would not hesitate to recommend this great B & B.

We stayed with Tom and Judy three years back for about a week. It is a perfect base to discover the beautiful Yellowstone area. Warm, cozy, well maintained and very prettty, there is nothing more you can ask for --breakfasts are splendid and the living room with its huge fireplace, deck and open kitchen, books (even a computer) are very...
