About Us

More than a place to stay, we are a place to get away.

Just a half-an-hour drive from Billings, the Yellowstone River Lodge, is comfortingly tucked away from all the hustle and bustle. The area is teeming with wildlife including deer, waterfowl, fox, pheasant, beavers, hawks, osprey, bald eagles, and even the occasional moose. Our secluded property sits on 50+ acres for you to enjoy, and a large island to explore if you feel adventurous.

Put your boat or raft in the Yellowstone River at Columbus in the morning for some great fly fishing, picnicking, and sightseeing, and take your boat out at the cabins in mid to late afternoon – just in time to barbecue on your fully equipped, covered deck to relax and take in the breathtaking sunset. We welcome you to come and explore the historic river that led Lewis and Clark out west.

How to find us:

Heading West on I-90:

Exit at Park City, head west on Hwy 10, approximately 8.5 miles.

Heading East on I-90:

Exit at Columbus, head south through town until you reach Hwy 10, turn left and east approximately 8 miles.

Yellowstone River Lodge is only 30 minutes from Logan International Airport in Billings and 2 hours from the Yellowstone National Park entrance.

Please Note: Guests expecting to check in after 8:00 PM must notify YRL in advance. We are a small business, and availability for check ins after 8:00 PM must be arranged in advance. Failure to notify YRL of a late check in can result in being unable to check in to the reservation while still being charged for it. We are unable to offer refunds for reservations that are not filled by another guest before.

Where to turn off Highway 10:

Watch for this sign above the mailboxes. 

This is the only sign we were allowed to have by the railroad.  While we know it may be easy to miss, it is lit up at night and is between the mile marker 9 and 10.

Pinecrest Road is just 30 yards east on the opposite side of the road.  You will head south going across the railroad tracks.  This is a gravel road to check-in at the B&B.

About a 1/2 mile, turn left at the first house and follow the signs to lodge.

Please call 406-322-8474 if you need any additional information.
