Yellowstone was established in 1872, making it the first national park in the world. Old Faithful, a geyser that erupts roughly every 90 minutes and shoots thousands of gallons of boiling water 100 feet into the air, is Yellowstone's most famous landmark. The park spans 3,468 square miles and is full of mountains, lakes, rivers and wildlife, making it a nature lover's dream. If you are planning a visit to Yellowstone, you'll find cabins located nearby to rent.
If you wish to stay within the boundaries of Yellowstone, a set of cabins run by Yellowstone National Park Lodges appear throughout the park. Whether you want to stay right on a lake or close to Old Faithful, these cabins help you get the most out of your trip. If you rent one of these cabins, you are permitted to stay in the park even after the rest of the public has to leave at the end of the day, allowing you to see a different side of Yellowstone. Most of the cabins do not have television, phone or Internet capabilities. The cabins are generally only open during the summer season.
