THE MONTANA ROCKY TOP CABIN
Secluded, Serene and Surrounded by Purple Mountains Majesty

Please come in & warm up by the fire...

You will find tranquility on Colter Pass in Cooke City, Montana -- only seven minutes from the Northeast Entrance Gate of Yellowstone National Park!  Tucked away from crowds in your luxury cabin at 8,600 feet, you will be surrounded by "Purple Mountains Majesty" and in the company of the native wildlife.

Attention Wolf Watchers: 
Howling Fun!
Montana Rocky Top Cabin is located just 30 minutes from Lamar Valley, the home of Yellowstone's largest elk herd, bison herds, and wolf packs -- descendants of the famed reintroduced wolves.  This makes it the perfect destination for wolf watchers and all wildlife enthusiasts!  To get you in the spirit of wolf watching, we took this amateur video at the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone, on Montana, April 19, 2008 (located an easy drive through the Park from our cabin). Go to www.grizzlydiscoveryctr.org for more information.

The Montana Rocky Top Cabin sits at 8,600 feet at Colter Pass.  The property shares a boundary with the Gallatin National Forest; therefore, wildlife sightings are daily.  Occasionally, something spectacular happens by.  We have been provided with long lists of animals spotted from the cabin but here are just a couple highlights from '08!  We provide a spotting scope at the dining room window for these wonderful moments!

May 2008: The Dixons from the UK reported seeing three wolves on the bluff from the breakfast window one morning while having breakfast!  This is a first wolf sighting at the cabin.  The Dixons have been visiting Montana for 19 years and made a credible identification.
