Gallery Lodge
The Gallery Lodge features lavish yet rustic refinement with stunning vistas of Yellowstone National Park on the banks of the Yellowstone River. Surrounding guests in fine art and creativity, the distinctive accommodations sleep 8 to 12, with 5 bedroom and 5 private bath suites. Four of the bedrooms are in the main lodge, with one 'glamping' space along the Yellowstone River. The Gallery Lodge is complete with a full kitchen, large dining area, gathering space, and laundry room.
The gourmet kitchen incorporates high-end appliances with antique hutches for convenience and aesthetic pleasure. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, glasses, dishes, and more.
Here, the front of the Gallery gives you a peek into Winter, with fresh snow on John's eagle sculpture... Cloaked in a blanket of snow, Montana winters are quiet and serene. Here in Gardiner, winters are generally quite mild and the wildlife knows it!...migrating down for easier foraging in the winter. So wildlife abounds in this quiet season. If you haven't experienced winter here, please do - it's magical.

The gallery was built around art – John and Shirl’s art. Tall walls to hang Shirl’s dramatic oil paintings, large windows to flood John’s bronze sculptures with natural light, and high beamed ceilings to support their incredible custom chandeliers. You can see the inspiration for the art out the windows – Yellowstone Park, the Yellowstone River, and Montana. Sunset on the peaks, Morning light raking across Sepulcher Mountain, wind blowing snow through the sage and juniper. The feel is inviting…refined rustic with wood book shelves, wood floors, beamed cathedral ceilings, soothing colors and of course art.
We invite you in to be our guests....
The rest of the lodge reflects the same aesthetic. Creative, casual, comfortable, inspiring, and with lots of stories. When designing the guest accommodations Shirl used a color pallet based on Montana. Soothing natural materials and lots of natural light with big windows for big views, and spaces shaped to accommodate the flow of a group easily. John’s craftsmanship and skill with the use of materials put it together into a remarkable setting where nature and art can seep in. Lodge guests have the opportunity to share and experience a lifestyle steeped in fine art and the grand landscape of the west. The setting certainly leaves an imprint and creates a lasting impression on those guests fortunate enough to visit.
Watch the light and shadows move across the mountains, the ever changing colors of the river are beyond description, and the sound of the river flowing through the landscape soothes the soul. Sink into a cozy chair with a glass of wine and contemplate the beauty of one of Shirl’s paintings…the 1st impression is the beauty of the image itself, but step closer to enjoy the shapes and patterns, and still closer reveals an abstract wonder of colors and textures.
The distinctive lodge can accommodate up to 12 guests with 5 bedroom/bathroom suites. The beautiful kitchen and dining room can accommodate a large group meal easily, and the gathering spaces are nothing but inspiring.
