Picture
Yellowstone Lakefront Log Home on Henry's Lake is a waterfront, 2352 sq.ft. 2-story luxury vacation rental home located in Island Park, Idaho, only 20 minutes from the entrance to Yellowstone National Park and the town of West Yellowstone, Montana. It has 4 bedrooms,  3 bathrooms and sleeps 10 people comfortably in 4 queen and 2 twin beds. This newly remodeled home is situated on a 1.24 acre property in a quiet neighborhood of a half dozen homes on the exclusive Pintail Point. Pintail Point is known by the locals as the "Banana belt", as snow melts first here in the spring. The home is constructed of 14 inch diameter hand-peeled logs with 25 foot ceilings, creating a lodge atmosphere. The deck offers a 220 degree view of the lake, unobstructed by houses or trees and framed by attractive hand-peeled log railings.  Record your favorite satellite cable TV shows on the DVR during the day while you sight see, and watch them at night when you return home.  There is wireless internet service available to check your email and the worldwide web. It has a BBQ grill, outdoor deck seating, and lakeside fire pit.   Enjoy peaceful quality time with friends and family as you gaze upon the lake with its many moods, from misty early mornings to glassy reflections of the scenic mountains. The beautiful 8,000 to 10,000 foot high mountains of the Targee National Forrest, a part of the Continental Divide, provide a panoramic view of Rocky Mountain splendor. This is the perfect location for a fishing/sightseeing vacation as the location allows easy access to Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, and blue ribbon trout fishing.  A float tube can be easily launched from the backyard with exclusive fishing access, or just cast a line from shore.  Launch your personal fishing boat in a protected private marina just one house away.    
        Four markets are located within 20 minutes, one - ten minutes south on Hwy 20; two - twenty minutes away in West Yellowstone (the largest); one - twenty minutes away at Macks Inn.
