A little pricey for what you get. Staff was very nice but room and complex needs some updating. Windows especially need to be washed. Beautiful view but thru dirty windows and paint peeling window trim.

Okay average 2-3 star hotel room. The $15 per day “resort fee” was unacceptable. No value-add, just a way to add cost to the consumer. The $18 buffet breakfast was similar to the free cheap breakfast at many chain hotels.

Our door stuck. The creamer in the room curdled. We could not find a parking spot the 2nd night. There were a bunch of knats in our room. Not worth $350 a night.

Surprised no elevators to get to second floor
The website photo gave me the impression that there was an elevator to get to the second-floor rooms. To our dismay we discovered a steep staircase. We saw mostly senior customer so I'm sure we weren't the only ones disappointed.

We stayed in a cabin which was perfect. It had a sitting area with a kitchenette, bedroom with a king bed. There was a fireplace ( not real) which lended a nice atmosphere. Two porches, one in the front as you enter the cabin and another on the roof which was great for looking at Yellowstone. This property is just outside the Northern entrance to Yellowstone. Elk show up at night to eat the grass, right in front of the cabins. Will definitely return!

We stayed at the Ridgeline for 3 nights for our visit to Yellowstone. It was a convenient location, and our room was clean and fairly spacious. I requested a river view room, and the view was spectacular, but our room opened up to a motel-like outdoor walkway, so we really couldn't keep our curtains open. If you have mobility issues, make sure you don't have to use stairs to get to your room.

The restaurant had an awesome menu and the food was very tasty, including the breakfast buffet. The river view room had an amazing view. We enjoyed watching the elk walk by and the eagles fishing. One window was very hard to open, the other wouldn't open at all. We didn't know ahead of time that we would need to carry our luggage up the stairs, which is difficult for older people. I'm not sure what the noise was, but several times during the night there was a loud bang, sounded like coming from the TV or in the wall behind the TV, so it was difficult to sleep.

This property and the rooms need some upgrades, such as the curtains and bathrooms, but was clean. Breakfast is not included, but we enjoyed the open area fire pit in the morning with our coffee as we watched the sun come up. The complimentary s'mores for roasting over the fire was a unique touch. It's in a convenient place, so you can park and walk to dining and little grocer. Would stay here again.
