Our stay at Yellow Dogs Cottage was delightful. We were greeted upon our arrival by two beautiful yellow Labrador retrievers, and our hosts' son. The cottage -- an adorable, eclectic sanctuary-- was immaculate. The only thing we lacked was washcloths. The cottage is located behind the owners' historic home in a leafy, welcoming, established neighborhood. Access to the cottage admittedly is tricky, primarily because It is located on an unmarked alley. The cottage isn't marked by a name or house number, but a neighbor helped us identify it. The yard featured giant fir trees, an outdoor seating area, and the owners' lush vegetable garden (we were there in July). Our host made certain we had the coffee supplies and preferences we requested, and provided helpful directions to terrific restaurants in Bozeman. Main Street is only about a mile away down Willson St.
The beds are so comfortable, with big, fluffy comforters. The bathroom is cozy. The shower is small but adequate. Don't plan to wash your hair, however, as the rainfall shower head is very close to the wall.
I'd certainly love to return to Yellow Dogs Cottage, and strongly recommend it to travelers who like to experience local flavor and quirky, comfy, cute accommodations. We felt very welcomed by the owners and their neighbors. We were especially delighted that neighbor dog, Hank, a young Australian Shepherd, popped his head into our open front door to greet us on our first morning! Thanks so much for a lovely time!
