From the Bozeman International Airport (Gallatin Field)
Take I-90 to Livingston Exit 333 (Livingston, Montana). Exit the freeway and the ramp takes you around a cloverleaf to a traffic light. This is the intersection with State Hwy. 89. Turn left (south) onto Hwy. 89. You will be heading south through the Paradise Valley.
Travel about 45 miles south on Hwy. 89. Some of the landmarks you will pass by include a town called Emigrant where there is a flashing light at the only intersection with the highway—continue south, a sign that marks the Tom Miner Basin off to your right, and a sign that tells you that you are entering Yankee Jim Canyon (which is the narrow canyon that Yellowstone River runs north through and where the whitewater rafting tours run out of Gardiner). Continue south.
As you come out of Yankee Jim Canyon, you have another few miles to go to your turnoff. The road follows the Yellowstone River, which you will see on your right. After a few miles, you will come to a small green highway sign that says "Entering Corwin Springs" and a large sign saying Yellowstone Hot Springs. The next driveway to the right is your turn and takes you to the Corwin Springs Bridge. The Corwin Springs Bridge is the only way over the river until you get all the way into Gardiner.
(Please note: The new Hot Springs is now open at Corwin Springs and there is a large sign that states Yellowstone Hot Springs.)
Cross the bridge and make an immediate left turn onto the dirt road which is Old Yellowstone Trail South. Go along this road approximately 2.5 miles. You will pass a few homes, lots of meadows, and a ranch operation (Royal Teton) where the buildings are painted yellow. The next property after this ranch is the cabins. Turn left at the driveway entrance with a white sign marked “Yellowstone Cabins” with addresses beginning with 550 (there is a new brown home on your right-hand side as you enter the driveway. Proceed beneath the large log arch entry. Drive in and park at your designated cabin. Let yourself in with the combination lock code you have been given.
