BRIEF DESCRIPTION: Our first Idaho property, called Two Mile Cabin because it's barely in Island Park, Idaho, just two miles over the state line at the Continental Divide. This little neighborhood of homes is a great base camp for exploring the Yellowstone area. It’s just 15 minutes to the park entrance, is surrounded by national forest for hiking, mountain biking, cross country skiing and snowmobiling and it’s just a 5 minute drive to Henrys Lake and the Henrys Fork River, both world-famous fisheries. With 3,200 square feet of living space, including a large family room, TV room and sauna, it’s a very comfortable home for a large group.
BEDROOMS AND BATHS: The cabin has five bedrooms and four full baths. The main level has three bedrooms, and there are two more downstairs. On the main level you’ll find a master bedroom with a king size bed and attached full bath with a tub/shower combination. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the other has two twins. They share a full bath with tub/shower. The sunny lower level master has a king size bed and a large attached bath with walk in shower. The second bedroom has a queen and uses a bath with shower just across the family room. All bedrooms have Pottery Barn linens and iPhone docks.
KITCHEN: This is a great kitchen for a crowd as it opens to the bar, the dining area and the living room. It’s equipped with tons of serving and picnic ware, and lots of small appliance extras like a crock pot, waffle maker, electric mixer and blender. There’s also a Weber grill out on the deck. We stock your kitchen with a full supply of organic spices, as well as whole wheat and white flour and sugar.
DINING AREA: The large dining table seats ten comfortably and the bar accommodates another four. There’s also plenty of seating for enjoying outdoor meals out on the aspen-shaded deck.
LIVING ROOM: The cozy living room has a gas fireplace, a flat screen HD TV with satellite service, and comfy leather seating. Step out the sliding doors to the deck with additional seating for cocktail hour!
FAMILY ROOM, TV ROOM & SAUNA: The downstairs is dedicated to helping you relax after your day of exploring. The huge family room has Foosball, a miniature pool table, and a game table. We have a special Kids' Corner for your littlies, complete with games, toys, puzzles and stuffed animals. There’s a TV room with a large screen TV and electric fireplace. And to top it off, there's a sauna room with a three-person infrared dry sauna.
SETTING, ACREAGE, AND VIEWS: Two Mile Cabin is in a small mountainside neighborhood just 12 miles from West Yellowstone and an entrance to Yellowstone National Park. It sits on one half acre and enjoys incredible views of towards the Henry's Lake valley, and to Sawtelle Peak and other mountains along the Continental Divide. You’re likely to see elk, moose, fox and maybe even a bear in this beautiful wild area!
OUTDOOR AMENITIES: Decks on two sides of the house provide room for enjoying coffee in the morning sunshine and then sunset over the mountains. A Weber gas grill, firepit, outdoor dining table and plenty of cocktail seating make these very enjoyable spaces.
CLOSEST TOWN AND AIRPORT: You are 10 miles to the grocery store in Island Park and 12 miles from West Yellowstone's, and almost exactly 100 miles from both the Bozeman,Montana and Idaho Falls, Idaho airports.
ACTIVITIES NEARBY: In winter, you can snowmobile and cross country ski right from the house and get onto hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobile trails. If you prefer Nordic skiing, West Yellowstone’s Rendezvous Trails are a short drive away and you can explore the park by snow coach. In summer, there’s hiking and mountain biking all throughout the area, fishing on the Henrys Fork and Madison Rivers and on Henrys Lake, boating on Hebgen Lake and day trips into Yellowstone Park. There's so much to do!
