Overpriced, and deceiving online pictures. Loud street noise, not enough parking, and no on site staff. Could’ve stayed longer in the town at cheaper resort. They are realistic expectations that come from overpriced rates, and this place fell so short!

This property is perfect if you are exploring Yellowstone National Park. It’s well located, provides a parking spot per unit and has all memories you need. There is no on- site staff or lobby. Think of it more as individual lodge like cabins.

It was a great place to stay, walking distance to the town. The only reason I have a 4 star is that the toilet had a deep clog. The maintenance personnel where there in a timely fashion and corrected it after awhile, they needed to use a heavy duty snake to unclog. This was a minor inconvenience.

Bucking moose was pretty central. Location was great. Our room was below a two story loft ( room 1). I don’t recommend that room. We could hear all footsteps from the room above us. Every move they made, we heard. Our room was also very close to the street. We got a lot of street noice.
Outside of that. The room was calm and charming. Staff was helpful. Be aware, the room does not get cleaned while you are there. Fresh towels upon request.

Very tiny for a two bedroom one bathroom, which is in the main bedroom so whoever has to go to the bathroom has to go through that bedroom to get to the bathroom very tight no places to put your suitcases. Wi-Fi did not exist. Very poor. Couldn’t even get Alexa door kept dropping signal constantly freezing on the TVs way overpriced for what you get that is for sure would not recommend staying there the bathroom the floors are uneven at a slope.

The location of this place is extremely convenient! Walking distance to the shops and restaurants is minimal, and only a 4-5 minute drive to the entrance to Yellowstone NP. The room was very clean, the beds and pillows were comfortable and we had everything we needed. It’s pretty rustic, which was fine with us, but don’t expect high-end accommodations. I would recommend because of the location and impeccable cleanliness.

This was a nice comfortable place to stay in West Yellowstone. The room was clean and extra care is taken to ensure guests are well taken care of. The only suggestion is that 2 coffee k cups for a 3 day stay for 2 adults isn't adequate. With no staff on site we couldn't obtain more. Small inconvenience not anything that would keep me from going back.

We are former vacation rental owners so that is the lens through which we evaluate lodgings. We stayed in Bucking Moose’s Loft #2. We were 2 people staying in a unit that sleeps 6. Our bed was clean and comfy. Though located on a busy street, not much sound disturbed us. It was great to have a well equipped kitchen (appliances, dishes, pans) where we could enjoy morning coffee, pack lunches for our day trips and cook dinners so we didn’t need to go out at the end of a busy, sometimes tiring, day. Bathroom fixtures were clean and it was nice to have a bathtub to soak in. Starter supplies of bottled water, coffee, dish soap etc were very helpful, and there is a market nearby to buy anything else you might need.
SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER: It can be a challenge to schlep a suitcase filled with 6 days worth of clothes and misc. items up a steep stairwell, as there is no elevator.
Though the furniture and bathroom fixtures were very clean and the wall decor was quite nice, the carpeting was stained, dirty, or both, which was a big disappointment. Dining chairs and eating utensils would have been a bit under par for a group of 6, though it worked for us.
That said, Joseph, the management company’s rep that assisted us with our reservation and questions about Yellowstone prior to our arrival, was very helpful, courteous and professional. We also loved the unit’s proximity to the Park’s entrance, the Grizzly and Wolf Center and the shops in West Yellowstone.

We stayed in Lynx 7. These are quaint and cute little cabins. Think shabby chic. Our unit needs a little TLC ( specifically a broken toilet seat) and some other tweaks, but nothing that would prevent us from booking again. Very walkable to everything and a 1 minute drive to the West entrance of Yellowstone. Overall, great stay!

The location is definitely prime. It’s 5 minutes to Yellowstone park entrance & even in the long line, people let you in. This rustic cabin vibe is very small. My husband is 6’6 & the shower/toilet space is not ideal. It’s just a really small space. The water pressure in the shower is like a soft rain, although it does get hot! The A/C unit in the cabin is louder than a jet & hooks up to the back window. Plus it takes up a good amount of space in this already tiny room. Again, not ideal if conversations are to be had. It’s really, really loud. If you’re looking for a bed, cramped toilet & small shower while seeing the park, The Bucking Moose is central to all the great starred restaurants & T-shirt shops to walk to. After driving all day, it’s nice to walk to dinner. If you’re above average in size, this space is really small; especially the bathroom. Think tiny house. It’s clean, stocked with Costco Kirkland coffee & bottled water & has clean bedding. Definitely convenient. Just wish it was a little bigger with more updated AC units. The grounds have gorgeous flowers! The parking has a handful of spots in front of each cabin door but slots are narrow with tree roots breaking through the concrete & others park over the line with no rules or etiquette enforced. I’d stay again but not sure the husband could.

I LOVED the Bison Cabin we stayed in. Had everything we needed. Easy check-in/check-out, super convenient to shopping and dining, as well as a short drive to Yellowstone and West Yellowstone airport. I would definitely stay at the Bucking Moose on my next trip to Montana!! Great staff, and very well kept

Bucking Moose felt clean, staff was around cleaning and maintaining the plants - very friendly. Communication was quick and easy. A short walk to downtown and short drive to Yellowstone park entrance.

We booked the hotel expecting good air conditioning, multiple beds, a proper kitchen as all of this was shown in the pictures of the hotel. But when we arrived there was only one bed, a small air conditioner that did not cool the room, no kitchen just a microwave and an overall small room. We asked the staff what they could do about the air conditioning and they said they could not do anything but told just to open the windows.

Overpriced for what you get

Not what I expected based on the pictures. It was in the 20's while there and the floors are freezing. They need some rugs. The bathroom was not level so it effected everything. Needed a stove in it for cooking. No comfortable sitting area. The cabins are basically in a small paved parking lot. I would not stay or advise anyone to stay there.

Short walks to all dining or other activities. No need to drive other than through the park itself. Stayed in Lynx room #7. Small but clean and nice comfy king bed. Parked ten feet from the door.

The cabin was great for our family. Plenty of space for all 6 of us. Close to everything in West Yellowstone making it very walkable. Kitchen offered all the necessities to cook and eat at the cabin.

Exorbitantly overpriced and tiny

Room was clean. Bathroom beyond tiny. Property fee was ridiculously expernsive - $219 for three nights on top of $172.10 for the room per night. Definitely in no way worth $245.10 per night in the peak of offseason. Read the fine print

We stayed in Cabin #2, The Loft. The layout was great for our small family. The only thing was that we could not get the TV's to work. We were able to watch a show or two the first night, but then the device said it needed to be charged. We plugged it in overnight and the next day, and the next, but it wasn't charging no matter what plug we used (straight USB or with a wall USB adapter). We could not get the second TV to turn on either. I guess this was a healthy alternative for us, to \"unplug\" for the time and enjoy the experience and time as a family :)

Terribly uncomfortable beds..Avoid

It was an ok little cabin themed loft but I cannot give this a good rating. The beds are terrible. And I mean absolutely awful. The most uncomfortable beds I have ever slept on. 3 queens and each one was bad. If I owned a hotel, the #1 priority would be investing my money into comfortable mattresses for my customers. It's unbelievable that owners take profit over investing into what clearly needs to be updated. Also the main large TV was not equipped with any working streaming services, so that TV was worthless. Finally all we had was 2 rolls of toilet paper. At least keep a pack of 6 ready if you know a family is going to be staying for a few days. The main plus to this hotel is it was in town and right next to Yellowstone...the sole reason we booked it.

Kitschy and cozy

Last minute reservation after an exhausting day visiting the park. Rooms are cute and kitschy. Stayed in the “chipmunk” cabin. Pleasant for the money, pet friendly, cozy, close to all the tourist stops. No contact check-in was a first for me, liked it! Easy check out. Would stay in the future.

The bed was super uncomfortable, door to the bathroom was hard to close, heater was noisy and kept waking us up in the middle of the night, you can hear all the traffic driving by , it seems to me like they put zero effort on trying to make a good customer experience, I would not recommend this place at all.
