Dear Bruce and Magdalena,
Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed being back at your lovely home! We had a fabulous time. It was fun to explore Yellowstone again, not to mention the spectacular scenery! I think this is a good time of year to visit the park. We saw lots of elk, bison, bighorn sheep, the highlight being the big grizzly we saw on Saturday. My Mom really enjoyed it too, and she loved the house! Thank you for another perfect stay in your beautiful home - it could become our annual vacation. Hope we can get back this time next year again!

We were so fortunate to have such a wonderful place to spend a very memorable vacation. Being from Florida, the added excitement of snow with the spectacular landscape it produced, made pictures even more desirable. This cabin gave us a warmth and a refuge we loved in the evenings. Thank you for having such a well-stocked and comfortable cabin. We loved the decor with rustic yet luxurious amenities.

Thanks for having this beautiful home to share with everyone. We had a wonderful family vacation seeing all the beautiful sights in Yellowstone. The second set of baby items was very much appreciated. We were lucky to see the aspen trees start to turn to orange during our short visit. We are already planning our next family trip. I always enjoy looking out the front windows and seeing the mountains. Until our next trip,

Another memorable visit to Yellowstone. The fall colors were amazing. The animals did not disappoint. And the starts at night ... Our family really enjoyed our time here. Thank you for sharing your home with us. It is like a familiar piece of home. Looking forward to our next visit in a few years. Keep the light on ...

Bruce and Magdalena,
We thoroughly enjoyed renting your house these past 3 weeks. The location was excellent and the setting was lovely. There are several things that we particularly appreciate about your home and want to commend you for these, in hopes that they will help you plan for future guests. We were grateful for:
1. The Kleenex in every room
2. The rechargeable flashlight (although we didn’t have to use it)
3. The flashlight by the key box
4. The soft linens and comforters
5. The extensive supply of wood (although we didn’t use it)
6. The high quality washer and dryer
7. The clear instructions provided prior to our visit and also available in your house
8. The cleanliness of the house
9. The gas grill and ample outdoor seating
10. The garage (which allowed extra storage space for fishing and hiking
gear and for parking inside on frosty mornings)
11. The beautiful, functional décor; I particularly appreciated the flooring that did not show dirt easily
12. The well-equipped kitchen (including spices, griddle, utensils, apron,
measuring cups and spoons)
13. Recycling
14. The well-equipped house, including ample towels and washcloths (we
didn’t need to buy anything except food)
15. The opportunity to leave unused food in the refrigerator/freezer/cabinets
16. The blue ice and cooler
17. The guide books about the area
18. The location (easy access to West Yellowstone, YNP, Gallatin National
Forest, hiking, fishing, grocery stores, restaurants)
19. The quiet setting; even though there are several homes nearby, we never were bothered by any sounds from neighboring homes
20. The maps on the staircase wall, clearly indicating location of the
house
21. The large dining table and ample chairs, allowing a large group to dine
together
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in your home. We are already thinking about the possibility of returning next year. Thanks again for providing such a spotless, beautiful place to escape! |

Thank you for the use of your great vacation home.
Everything here at the house was fantastic. Our
week started out chilly with low 50s for the highs,
but by the end of the week mid 60s and low 70s,
great sightseeing weather. Yellowstone was
breathtaking. We have seen buffalo, elk, eagles but
no bear sightings. It was the first for all in our
group other than myself, I was here in 1968.
Favorites were the Grand Canyon of the
Yellowstone, Old Faithful, the valley areas where
the elk and buffalo would gather. Thanks again,

We so enjoyed our week in your beautiful, well
equipped cabin. We spent many lovely days in
Yellowstone National Park. Highlights included
hiking to Lily Pond Lake at the Grand Canyon,
breakfast at the Old Faithful Inn, spotting lots of
wildlife in the Hayden Valley, and watching osprey
dive for fish at the Midway Basin. We also drove to
Cody and visited the Buffalo Bill Historical Center -
a long drive, but very beautiful, and the museum is
great. We highly recommend taking the 1 1/2 hour
drive to Virginia and Nevada City if you have kids.
Our boys loved it! We also liked the Grizzly and
Wolf Discovery Center. Thanks for providing such a
great home base for our adventures! We would
highly recommend Deer Meadow Vacation Home to
any and all friends and relatives who are planning
to visit Yellowstone! We have stayed in VRBO
homes all over the world over the past twelve years,
and your house was probably the nicest, cleanest,
best-outfitted home we have had the privilege of
renting. Thank you for providing such excellent
accomodations and for your attention to detail!

Breathtaking! We enjoyed our week very much and
wish we could stay longer and relax in this
beautiful home. We enjoyed many days at
Yellowstone and Grand Teton. Highlights were
Firehole Canyon Drive with the gorgeous view and
refreshing dips in the river (highly recommend,
went 3x), Midway and Biscuit Basin, Old Faithful,
and Hayden Valley with buffalo. Tonight we enjoyed
a wonderful horse ride at Diamond P Ranch. The
"boys" went fishing for rainbow trout and had a
blast. Nights were spent playing croquet on the
beautiful lawn. Do we have to leave? Thank you so
much for this wonderful place to enjoy.

We had a great vacation here. We enjoyed the home and being able to grill and cook most nights. Yellowstone was fun to see for the first time for part of the family and great for those who had seen it before because it is always changing! Our group was our immediate family of three and one set of grandparents. Our daughter also enjoyed our day trip to the Tetons and the boat ride on Jenny Lake.

It is with sad thoughts that we leave the beautiful Deer Meadow Vacation Home. We would love to stay and enjoy this lovely setting longer! Alas, we must journey back to Texas with dreams of a future visit dancing in our heads. The six of us have enjoyed this beautiful home as if it were our own. We have been comfortable and well cared for by the gracious amenities and warmth of this home. The Bealls have thought of everything and finished the home throughout delightfully. Our granddaughters enjoyed all the games and the beautifully appointed landing (loft). We can't wait to return and enjoy Yellowstone and the Tetons in comfort. You are great hosts!

We have had an amazing time staying in this exquisite home. Since the day we arrived until our last moment, all our needs have been met by this wonderful home. Our group of 9 (7 adults and 2 three-year old girls) had plenty of space and all felt at home each day. The house was nicely situated out of town, allowing us the tranquility and peacefulness of returning to this special place each day. Thank you for providing such a wonderful home for our enjoyment. I'm sure we'll be back in the future!

What a joy it was to turn the corner and see our beautiful home for the week on June 7th at 10 PM. It was everything we hoped it would be and more. Every meal we prepared had the perfect dishes, utensils, and pans. We cared for the home as if it was ours. Our group consisted of our son and daughter, their spouses and our four grandchildren, which included two babies under 7 months old. Our days were packed with sightseeing! We leave at 5 AM tomorrow for the Bear Tooth Pass (Hwy 212), Devils Tower, and Mt. Rushmore. We have never been known as a family that takes relaxing vacations. We never want to miss anything for we may never pass this way again. May God Bless You!

This was our very first time visiting West
Yellowstone or anywhere near Montana for that
matter. We couldn't believe how much snow fell
here these past few days! After all of the snow forts,
snow ball fights, snow angels, etc. it was such a
treat to come in to Deer Meadow for a warm fire,
cup of hot cocoa, and family games. And when
the sun finally came out on our last day here, we
were blessed with an amazing view of the sunset
behind the mountains. Next month dad leaves for a
year-long deployment with the Navy. Our time here
together will sustain us through this difficult
separation ahead. This was a vacation that the
Alvarado family will not soon forget, and it was all
made possible because of this little heaven-on-
earth that the Bealls call Deer Meadow Vacation
Home. Thank you - from the bottom of our hearts!

Yellowstone is a wonderful little town. We traveled to Big Sky and Jackson Hole but came back "home" to Deer Meadow. Nowhere was quite as nice as here. Hope to see you next year. Thanks again!

The cabin location was great for snowmobiling and convenient to both West Yellowstone and Island Park. We appreciated ALL the added extras you provided. The weather was mild, highs around 30, lows around 10. The snow was beautiful! We were amazed with all the wildlife! Thanks so much!!!

What a beautiful mountain cabin with a view of whimsically named Lionhead Mountain. We used this cabin as our jumping off place to see Yellowstone. We highly recommend using Yellowstone Alpen Guides on Yellowstone Ave in West Yellowstone to make use of a short amount of time. We saw Old Faithful and Beehive geysers, and the wildlife sightings were amazing - a grizzly bear eating an elk carcass with two wolves lurking nearby, bighorn sheep on the cliffs near Tower Junction, two bald eagles by the river, bison, elk sitting on the lawns around Old Fort Yellowstone, and a snow shoe rabbit at Mammoth Hot Springs. A mule deer hopped right in front of our car - we avoided him thank God. We saw the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone - don't miss Artist Point and the Upper and Lower Falls. Wow! God's Handiwork everywhere here!

Another fabulous time. This place is gorgeous. We really enjoyed our time here. A quandary - here's the problem: we've always loved Yellowstone Vacation Home. This is our first vacation at Deer Meadow. We enjoy the beauty and isolation of Yellowstone Vacation Home - and the bunnies. But Deer Meadow Vacation Home is beautiful and so cozy - especially in the snow. Guess we'll have to trade off. Thank you Magdalena and Bruce.

Jake (11 yrs) - Seeing the geysers, going to the rodeo and fishing with Dad. Watching "Old Yeller."
Kristjan )4 yrs) - Watching Disney's "Yellowstone Cubs." Being carried on our hikes and the gift shop! and "staying in a house made of trees."
Dustin - Watching the sunset over the mountains, mud pots, and soaking in the tub!
Lisa - Storm Point Ranger Hike, rodeo!, Duck Lake Hike, full moon rise over the mountains! Beautiful wood home.

Thank you for thinking of all the little extras that made this stay so peaceful. We've had the privilege of staying in both your properties, and both are lovely. It was great being so close to everything. We didn't have to go far to see wildlife because we had moose come visit the yard a few times! We were also in great proximity to horseback riding, the rodeo and kayaking. Blessing s to you and the next guests. Have a wonderful time!

My children 12, 10, 8 and 4 years old enjoyed the satellite TV, cozy beds and the jacuzzi. We have stayed at other vacation homes which didn't provide nearly as much "extras." I specifically appreciated them as chief cook and bottle washer. I hope to have another restful night tonight, thanks to you!

There was six of us staying at this beautiful cabin. This was a surprise to our younger sister Sam, as a graduation gift. She just graduated from college. Two of us traveled from Colorado and four of us came from North Dakota. We all have many memories and photos to take home . . . for that we thank you very much. Our days were spent in Yellowstone National Park, the men went fishing and we shopped too! Our nights were spent relaxing here! We played cards and dice. Thanks for having everything here for us to use . . . it's much easier for those who travel. We are planning to return :)

Dear Bruce and Magdalena,
What a lovely visit! This location proved to be fabulous for all the sites we wanted to see. The cabin was a pleasure to return to after a full day of sightseeing. Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons are awesome! So much to see and treasure. Truly, my photo album will refresh very treasured memories of our wonderful vacation. I will be anxious to share my experience with so many back home. To see pictures of your cabin the day we arrived and then pictures two days later with the transformation to a snow-covered landscape is amazing!
We enjoyed Bear World, the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center, IMAX, and several of the West Yellowstone resstaurants. I also enjoyed attending Mass at Our Lady of the Pines. God bless both of you for sharing your lovely home.

Dear Bruce and Magdalena,
A very heartfelt thank you for sharing your lovely cabin home with us.
Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined Deer Meadow to be as
comfortable and accommodating to our every need. Such thought was put
into every aspect of this home - interiorly and exteriorly. It says a
lot about its owners.
Andreas and I were able to see part of all three states in this area
and were basically speechless with every turn. We just returned from a
loop through Yellowstone to Gardiner, Livingston, Bozeman, Gallatin
Gateway (ate lunch at a cute place called The Gourmet Gas Station with
incredible views), then back to West Yellowstone. Yellowstone National
Park is one of a kind and truly incredible, but outside the Park is
just as stunning. Andreas felt like he was back in Austria! Thank you
so much and Danke ,
Lynn and

P.S. Even though it rained all day yesterday, we saw a full rainbow
outside the front door!

We have made our fifteenth trip to Montana and can't think of a nicer place we have stayed. The cabin is really beautiful. It's nice to be close to the Park and West Yellowstone, yet out of the city. Had a bear wonder through the front yard one evening.
We had the pleasure of staying at the Beall's other rental home outside of Gardiner in July and would highly recommend it as well. Very secluded and right on the Yellowstone with all the amenities of Deer Meadow.

Your cabin was perfect. We have rented many cabins and homes over the
years, you by far exceeded any of them. The house was stocked beyond
anything we expected, you thought of our every need.
We hiked Yellowstone. Saw a mother grizzly and cubs at Beaver Pond.
What a magical experience.
We rafted Gardiner, MT. One outfit was fab! We had so much fun! Again

We so enjoyed your home! As so many guests have noted, we really appreciated your personal touches! The fully equipped kitchen and wonderful washer and dryer were my personal favorites! We took advantage of having the crock pot so that after our days of hiking, we could come home to a warm meal all ready!
Our family would highly recommend this vacation home plus Montana White Water Rafting, Yellowstone Wilderness Outfitters (horseback riding through the park), West Yellowstone Rodeo, Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center (2-day tickets!) and the incredible trails within the park! We used your book on day trips within the park and found it very helpful! We saw a grizzly on the Wraith Falls Trail and a black bear and cub on Black Tail Deer Plateau - very cool! We also saw many buffalo, elk, an eagles nest and antelope. Our family had a great experience! Thank you for everything!

This was the first "real" vacation we have been able to take (from work) in 19 years and the only regret we've had since coming here, is having to leave! :( The house was truly amazing and you've put so much thought into everything! We had a great adventure in coming here and did not use the alarm clocks once!! :) Yellowstone was really exciting, along with the Tetons. The last day here, we were actual 'tourists' and went to the shops downtown, along with the Discovery Center. We had a really great time and will definitely tell all of our friends/relatives about your home! Thank you!

I travel a lot for my job. Most of the time, I stay at very nice hotels. But, when we go on vacation I avoid hotels, and look for a house or a cabin to rent. I must say this cabin exceeded our expectations. Patty and I enjoyed our stay immensely. Thank you!

We enjoyed your vacation home, this Christmas holiday. Your home is A+ in everything; the peace and quiet and the view were grand.
My kids loved the snow-machining with the trails being so close to the house. We have come to "WEST/ISLAND PARK" for 10 years now, for Christmas, but this visit has been the most UNIQUE!
I must add that I took some of my one son's senior school pictures at the cabin. Using the cabin and furnishings as a back drop, really made Adam's pictures neat.

We have been camping along the Madison River since 1982. This was our first trip without campers. The cold temperature amazed us but we were very comfortable in your cabin.

Dear Bruce and Magdalena,
Deer Meadow Vacation Home provided the perfect base for a great vacation. The
house is conveniently located a quarter mile from Highway 20, which is a
straight 10 minute drive to West Yellowstone and the west entrance. This made
it very easy for us to travel to Yellowstone Park, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho.
With all its woodwork details, the superclean house is a craftman's dream. We
enjoyed the beautiful pictures, fixtures and accessories, as well as the
comfortable sofas, chairs and beds, the helpful tourist books and
maps, the Yellowstone DVD and books, fishing books, CDs, DVDs and TVs, the new
appliances and instruction manuals, the large cooler and the blue ice, and the
yummy huckleberry jam.
We saw beautiful views from inside the large upstairs windows and outside on
the cozy lounge chairs and deck chairs. The large enclosed garage provided
storage room for our car, hiking and fishing items. The landscape design is
wonderful, and when the grass, plants and trees mature, the property will be
even more beautiful.
The Bealls have paid attention to large and small details, and it shows! This
wonderful vacation home has it all! Thank you,

Dear Bruce and Magdalena,
Thank you so much for the perfect vacation home. We were so pleased with the design and architectural details as well as the beautiful furnishings. We have rented many vacation homes and none came close to your thoughtful and much
appreciated attention to detail: the quality of bedding and linen, the fully
stocked kitchen and all those extras. Paper products, dish soap, foil, coffee
filters and laundry soap are all items we've had to run out and purchase in
other rentals. It's so wonderful of you to provide these.
Your home was the ideal place to come home to after each day in Yellowstone.
We really enjoyed spotting all the wildlife (bison, elk, pronghorn, bald
eagles, black bear, wolf, pika, deer), seeing the geysers, whitewater rafting and hiking. But returning to your home each evening was so nice and relaxing. We especially appreciated the jacuzzi after hiking to the top of Mount Washburn!

My family and I just returned home from Yellowstone and all agree that it is one of the best vacations we've ever had!! Yellowstone and Grand Tetons are so beautiful and the people we met there were so very friendly that we wish we could have stayed longer!
But one of the best things about this vacation was staying at the Beall's lovely home in West Yellowstone. From the minute we walked in the door, we were so impressed with their home and all the amenities it offers. As all have previously stated, the decor is just beautiful with lots of attention to detail. The furniture, the comfortable beds, the fine linens were all top of the line quality. The fully equipped kitchen was quite impressive and the washer and dryer were so convenient when vacationing away from home.
Bruce and Magdalena, thank you so much for the use of your beautiful home. We will treasure our memories there and hope to have the privilege and opportunity to come back and stay again in the future.

The home itself was as clean as a whistle and had that air of freshness that comes with a new home. It exceeded our expectations. The beds were particular comfortable as were the couches on both levels. And who doesn't like two large satellite televisons!
The trip to the quaint entry village of West Yellowstone was a just quick jaunt away. There were any number of restaurants and gift shops, not to mention the several ice cream stores! Then another few feet and you were in Yellowstone National Park. Thanks for making your home available, I felt a sense of melancholy in having to leave. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

Thank you so much for providing this lovely home-away-from-home. Everything
was perfectly clean and beautifully decorated. The air-conditioning was great since it was in the upper nineties for most of our visit!
The house was a great home for our exploring all over Yellowstone, Virginia City/Nevada City (advice: go on the weekend), the Tetons, Jackson (advice: avoid in the busy season), and a little bit of Idaho - after our long days it was wonderful to have comfortable beds waiting for us!
You were right, The Three Bears has a good restaurant. We also enjoyed
Sydney's Bistro - it's only been open a few weeks but YUMMY!
During our stay we saw many forms of wildlife: lots of elk and buffalo, chip
monks, squirrels, rabbits, bald eagles, golden eagles, a muskrat and a
grizzly bear in Yellowstone. Plus we visited the Discovery Center and saw
bears and wolves up close - they also have a very neat program for kids. And
on our first morning a mama and baby moose ran through the neighborhood! |

Your house is even nicer than the pictures! You did a great job of having
lots of extras like the high chair, cooking spices, cooler, reading materials, etc. You have beautiful taste in decor - rustic and cozy yet bright and roomy too! We felt like we had more than enough room for the 6 of us. My kids (9,6,2)loved the loft and I felt the house was very safe for our curious two year old. This house was a great home-base for touring Yellowstone and a quick ride to town.
Just behind your house, off on Bull Elk Rd, we saw a female moose and her baby! The Diamond P down the road was great for horseback riding, very safe and informative. The West Yellowstone Rodeo had my boys (9, 7 and 2)mesmerized (when we realized that Cody was too far we tried this one), and Geyser Whitewater in Big Sky was great too for rafting! The July 4th fireworks in West Yellowstone were spectacular!
We saw two grizzlies in Yellowstone, a black bear, elk, buffalo, wolf, coyote and moose.
Also, you two were so great about getting back to me immediately whenever I asked you questions or called - thanks for that!
We hope to try a different season at your beautiful home! Thanks for the movies too - I can't beleive my kids sat quiet through Dances with Wolves!

Our family of 8 had a wonderful time in your
beautiful vacation home, after our June 2, 2006
wedding in Bozeman. The large spaces
accommodated everyone very comfortably. We
could all be together for meals, or playing cards
and boardgames. Some of us watched tv, while
others cooked or read books in other areas of the
home.
We toured Yellowstone for a full day, and the park
was so close we were home by dinner time.
We are planning to have future family reunions
there because of it's convience to the park and to
the many trails at the end of the street. Some of our
relatives chose to stay at the Motel 8 across the
street then join us for meals.
Thanks for having such a well stocked kitchen for a
large group, we found everything we needed to
prepare great meals for 10.
Keep up the good work.

Owner's note: Our vacation home setting is rural and quiet. The single motel in the area, referred to above, is actually about 3/4 of a mile away and isn't within sight of the vacation home. It is a convenient place for others to stay if your party is larger than 8 but I wanted to explain that it is not "across the street" as loosely stated above.

This was our first trip to the Yellowstone area during the winter. It surely was a great vacation. I have booked only one vacation home on-line before, and was a bit apprehensive, but after sending a few emails to Bruce, I felt very comfortable things were on the up and up.
All the information provided by the Bealls was “as advertised”. The Bealls were very prompt in answering email and provided cell and home telephone numbers. The photos in the listing do not do this property justice. It is a fantastic home with everything one would need to have a nice relaxing visit.
The snowfall was also abundant. It snowed everyday we were there. We snowmobiled directly from the cabin onto some great trails very near the home which connected into the entire snowmobile trail system, it was very convenient.
The Bealls were also available to answer any questions we had about the home and were very gracious hosts.
Thanks Bruce and Magdalena, see you next year!

What a treat to be the first guests at Dear Meadow to celebrate our annual
Thanksgiving "trek" to West Yellowstone Ski Festival: From the "greeting" of
crackers and jam, to the smell of turkey cooking for dinner with the
well-stocked kitchen, to the warmth of the fire crackling while watching the
snow fall outside, it was a memorable stay. We will also remember reading the
appliance manuals to make sure we did everything right! 4" of fresh snow
greeted us Saturday am so we could enjoy the skiing not far from the cabin.
Well done, Bealls ..... Deer Meadow is definitely worth a return visit.
