We really enjoyed our stay at Under Canvas. Montana Jim was great during our check-in, and all other staff was friendly and helpful as well. We loved the on-site restaurant and cute Bronco Bar. My only complaint was lukewarm coffee in the morning at the check-in tent. We will definitely stay at another Under Canvas site in our future travels!!

Checking in was a pain. Check in was 3pm but they didnt have the room ready until almost 5pm. Everybody was friendly and the place is beautiful including the room. But I had to wait for almost 2 hours for them to have the room ready. Im not sure if it was a once off thing, but it was a major inconvenience.

I’ve stayed at under canvas Bryce before and had such a lovely experience that I took it to West Yellowstone and was not disappointed. I’m not a traditional camper by any means but my boyfriend is. This was a perfect in between for us. He’s obsessed and we can’t wait to go back!

Fabulous glamping experience! Beautiful accommodations, tents spread far enough apart that it remains peaceful. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and eager to accommodate any requests. We needed more fire starter at 5AM and they came right out. The communal area has several table and fire pits to gather around. There was even solo musician singing last night. The stars at night are spectacular- I would highly recommend!

Stayed here with my girlfriend and it was absolutely amazing. We had the shared bathroom and shower which was’t as much of an inconvenience as we thought. Quick walk and with the lanterns they provide, even at night everything was easy. Would stay here again
