We had a great time! We saw all of Yellowstone! The accommodations were great, and I really enjoyed the virtual tour guide we used in the park.

This was a fabulous trip. One not to miss. Our host was amazing.

I truly enjoyed this trip. The scenery was spectacular! Loved the added waterfalls and Rhonda being open to suggestions off the itinerary, if it wasn’t out of the way. If I can suggest… maybe doing a survey to better assign roommates. Example…. Do you like it cold while sleeping. Do you sleep with tv on. This could help those who are meeting the roomy for the first time.

We had a great time. I suggest going a week later for warmer weather. I enjoyed everyone. Flexibility was important, and we all adjusted due to weather changes.
