Yellowstone Tipis
Quick Facts
Why Gardiner & Yellowstone
Gardiner sits directly at Yellowstone National Park’s North Entrance, the only entrance open to vehicles year-round, marked by the historic Roosevelt Arch dedicated by Theodore Roosevelt himself in 1903. The town’s resident elk herd commonly grazes the high school football field, and Mammoth Hot Springs, with its otherworldly travertine terraces, sits just 15 minutes away, alongside Lamar Valley’s famous wolf-watching.
Yellowstone Tipis is a warm, well-run tipi property at Yellowstone’s north entrance. Staff genuinely know the park and help plan your day, and included breakfast is a real touch above typical glamping.
