| Just an incredible place...with a view like sitting on top of the world. Home is very comfortable and well equipped. Great location at the end of the road...literally. Sawmill Restaurant 10 minutes away, a great treat. Frank couldn't have been more accomodating and we look forward to a return visit. |

| A spectacular location. The view is amazing, the solitude is a welcome respite from all the hustle and bustle of daily life, and the property is spectacular. Much to explore. . . abundant wildflowers, interesting trails, entertaining marmots and a terrific swing in the yard. Frank leaves all information and is an extremely helpful homeowner so all of your questions are answered making for a seamless stay. The views of the Absarokas is spectacular and the millions of stars visible will take your breath away as will the Milky Way. Wow! Would love to have a screened porch to enjoy it on buggy nights (possibility?) Truly a shangri-la! |

| My son and I stayed at Mountain Shangri-La for 6 days in August 2009. It was perfect. The cabin is beautifully situated, all on it's own, at the end of a good gravel road, at over 8500 feet with a positively spectacular panoramic view of Du Noir valley and the Absaroka Mountain Range. The cabin is equipped and furnished with everything including a helpful binder with all necessary instructions and guidance -- and the place is very comfortable. We used Mountain Shangri-la as a base from which we did a series of day hikes in some of the vast and stunning wilderness areas in the vicinity -- in our case mainly Ftizpatrick Wilderness in the Wind River Range. We also popped-over to Yellowstone one day. All very accessible. All-in-all we were delighted to have found this gem. It was perfect for what we were after -- hours of exercise trooping through pristine wilderness followed by hours of deep sleep in a comfortable cabin on the side of a mountain. Frank Symington, the owner, was extremely efficient and professional and a pleasure to work with. We can highly recommend this idyllic spot. |

| We stayed here for several days and had the best time. The view is beautiful and the house was perfect and roomy and had everything in it you could ask for and more. It was so relaxing. Frank is an added bonus. He is so helpful. We want to go back and stay longer. Great hikes from the house and Quad rentals and plenty of roaming room all around. Breath taking. Thank you so much, Frank |

It's great when guests find something special, as so many do, when they visit Mountain Shangri-La. It's a pleasure whenever folks decide to return again and again.

Mountain Shangri-La fit the bill perfectly from morning coffee
gazing across the Wind River valley to the snow capped mountains beyond to
watching the stars pop out at night. Location provided excellent access to
Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, Dubois, and the Wind River Indiana Reservation
among other points of interest. MSL accommodations were comfortable for the 8 of us and a wonderful and memorable time was had by all.

| We spent a week here at this cabin and it was a Great experience!! We were provided with everything we needed and the cabin was spacious and very nice. We had 9 people there and we all had room!! It is in a place where you are out in the woods but to far away from Dubois or Jackson. I would recommend this cabin to anyone who wants family time or to just relax!! We can't wait to go back!!!! |

| We rented Shangri-la for a family reunion of eight and had a wonderful time. The views are stunning and the place feels secluded while still being near necessities in Dubois. The place is in great shape, and I can't imagine a better place to simply sit and watch hummingbirds on an August day then to view the Perseid meteor showers at night. |

I love it when guests "connect" with the experience Mountain Shangri-La offers. And those meteor showers are easily rinsed with the Big Dipper you'll find nearby.

| I didn't actually stay here but I checked it out in detail. Frank was great to work with. He went above and beyond the call to make sure I had the information I was looking for. In the end it was the price of gas that made me look for something closer to home. If gas ever becomes afordable again I'll certainly book a stay just based on the customer service received. Thanks! |

Stunning! We enjoyed the beauty of the Shoshone and Wind River. Love the company of the real people in Dubois. We have stayed in a couple of places in Dubois, and the Shangri-La provided excellent comfort, beautiful views, and beyond exceptional help/advise from the owner and agent. Suggest walking all four corners of the property. The view of the badlands is my favorite...

What a wonderful place to spend a few relaxing days! Some of our party's comments included:
"It just doesn't get any better than this"
"This is heaven on Earth"
"What a peaceful way to start the day"
Even the drive to/from Yellowstone was a scenic pleasure. Thanks so much. Hopefully we can make it up to Wyoming again, where we would definitely stay at the 'Mountain Shangri La' again! |

| The views literally took my breath away. The front of the cabin contains a large, continuous window that maximizes the view from the living room. The cabin was very comfortable and convenient for day trips. We enjoyed lots of walking trails near the cabin. We plan on returning again. |
