Our stay at Monarch Garden Inn was truly a "Home away from home" experience. The apartment was spacious, well-furnished and comfortable. Leo and Dorothy were excellent hosts, friendly and very knowledgeable in helping us plan our stay and exploring Yellowstone and Grand Tetons Parks. The peace and quiet was welcome after the often hectic days in the parks and on the roads. A special treat was learning more about Monarch butterflies and their efforts to help the butterflies thrive. Dorothy even let us watch the live, almost magical transformation of a Monarch caterpillar into a chrysalis, which later transforms into an adult Monarch butterfly. The caterpillar literally "unzips" its outer skin, then twists and turns, and before our eyes, became the chrysalis in a matter of minutes. We would recommend staying here to anyone who has a genuine interest in and appreciation for the natural beauty of the land and wildlife of the Rocky Mountains.

Top of the line accommodation - Exceptional Rental
Monarch Garden Inn was the nicest place we have ever rented - ever. Its location in Emigrant, MT is ideal for visiting Yellowstone Nat’l Park, Bozeman, and the local attractions like Chico Hotsprings. There is also enough infrastructure close by to pick up necessary groceries, etc. and even eat out. The best part of Monarch Garden in is the hospitality and actual accommodations. Dorothy and Leo are exceptional and gracious hosts. They are caring, friendly, and knowledgable. They welcomed us graciously and invited as to enjoy their home rental as if it was our own home. They gave us many amazing tips on finding wildlife to view, and they taught us and our children about the magic and miracle of the Monarch Butterfly life cycle. They also gave us complete privacy when we needed it to relax. Their house is amazing. It is METICULOUSLY clean and exceptionally well stocked with absolutely everything a traveler may need. The bed is a king tempurpedic and there is a jacuzzi tub!!! Both of these high end ammenities are an amazing luxury after a long day in the national park. For me, the top three requirements for a successful stay are safety, cleanliness, and comfort. Dorothy and Leo provided all three with the addition of hospitality and luxury. Thank you Dorothy and Leo for the best trip and stay of our lives!!

Great getaway to Yellowstone National Park
Dorothy and Leo are great hosts. The check-in was smooth and easy and Dorothy gave a detailed tour of the property. Dorothy and Leo provide a lot of information about the local area (which cannot be found online). The property was clean and as described. It is closer to Yellowstone national park. We were able to spot few Elks from the property. During sunrise, you have humming birds flying by the bird feeder. We enjoyed staying here and would definitely love to come back. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in this area.

About the host

Hosted by Leo and Dorothy Keeler

Host profile image
Dorothy and I met in Anchorage, Alaska in 1988. Our love for animals and the outdoors led us to start a wildlife photography business and become active in protecting unique watchable wildlife resources.

We were lucky to have the CBS Evening News feature us twice for protecting the world-famous McNeil River brown bears, which helped us lead the effort that established the 160,000 acre McNeil River State Game Refuge. We then assisted Defenders of Wildlife, The Alaska Wildlife Alliance, and Friends of Animals in protecting the famed Toklat wolf pack in Denali National Park, the longest studied group of wild wolves in the world. On November 2, 1999, CBS Evening News featured us again for these efforts.

In 2005, we were honored to be asked to lead a round table discussion at the 8th World Wilderness Congress, hosting over 150 nations. At that meeting, we were asked to become two of the 40 founding members of the International League of Conservation Photographers. The ILCP was initially founded with 40 Fellows considered to be some of the most passionate nature and wildlife photographers of our generation. The mission of the ILCP is to further environmental and cultural conservation through photography and work on global campaigns to highlight current issues.

Dorothy's successful account of creating a petition to protect the Toklat wolves of Denali National Park is the lead story in MoveOn's book entitled, "MOVEON'S 50 WAYS TO LOVE YOUR COUNTRY: How to Find Your Political Voice and Be a Catalyst for Change.

Our passion for conservation has led us to developing and sharing a Rescue, Raise, & Release program for Monarch butterflies, whose population has decreased from over one Billion to a low of 35 million in the last 20 years. We decided to offer our home as a vacation rental which can serve visitors to Yellowstone and show interested guests how they can help Monarchs and other pollinators.

Why they chose this property

Leo worked in Montana in the 80's and always dreamed of returning. We chose the Paradise Valley because of it's incredible mountain views and closeness to Yellowstone.

What makes this property unique

BONUS – Free Travel Planning!

Do you know the best times and places to see bison, bears, wolves, elk, river otters, pika, or Rocky Mountain sheep?

Yellowstone is too big to see in a short trip; there are so many delightful choices to consider! You might be asking yourself, "Where do I begin?"

All our guests receive Free Travel Planning starting a few days after you book your stay!

As a wildlife photographer with years of experience in the park, Leo has prepared an extensive Yellowstone Guide with details on the top places to see, the best routes to take, and how long it will take to drive to each area (including time allotted for possible "bear jams," "bison jams," or "elk jams.")

We will first send you an overview of the top attractions (thermal features and animals) and then help customize a travel route(s) in order of your priorities. Relax and have confidence that you’ll be at the right place at the right time to maximize your chances of seeing your favorite things!

Also, we've Rescued, Raised, and Released over 500 Monarchs in the last 3 years, and we can teach you how, too! Kids of all ages are invited to join us for "Monarch Egg Hunts," "Coming Out Parties," and "Tag and Release" events in our extensive gardens.

We are professional wildlife photographers who specialize in eagles, wolves, bears, and now, Monarch butterflies. Learn where to go for the best viewing opportunities in Yellowstone and get photo tips, too.

Also, cell phone service is terrific if you have Verizon.
