Sage Lodge

We stayed at the Sage Lodge as part of a 20-person group and hosted a private event. We had an outstanding stay and would love to come back. LOCATION: Stunning location in the heart of Paradise Valley about 30 minutes from the north entrance of Yellowstone. There are sweeping views of the Montana landscape in every direction and it’s a very different (preferred) vibe from Big Sky. It’s about a one-hour drive from Bozeman airport. SERVICE: Warm and attentive service across the board but not always consistent. I had few calls to the front desk which went unanswered in the evenings and mornings. Michelle, our group’s main contact, was exceptional. She was available via text and proactively checked in during our stay. Chris at the front desk —friendly, helpful, and always available with a smile. ROOMS: The rooms and the resort in general are a blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. Our room was spacious and quiet with a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains – high speed Wifi, excellent air conditioning and convenient USB ports throughout. RESTAURANTS: Breakfast is available from 7 am, which was too late for us as we departed for Yellowstone early each day. The lodge should consider offering some grab-and-go options as I’m guessing a lot of guests depart early for Yellowstone. I hosted a private event for 20 guests, and everything went seamlessly. The venue was beautiful, the staff coordinated each part smoothly. Thank you to Michelle and Elle who worked behind the scenes and during the event to make it happen.

What a truly wonderful time my husband and I had at Sage Lodge. We were celebrating a milestone anniversary. From our initial check in to our departure, the front desk staff was amazing! They were always available to answer any questions, help if any issues arose and of course just to chat. One of our best trips ever! Our room was on the small size and the lack of clothes storage was an issue. The bed was large, comfortable and had plenty of pillows. The gas fireplace was nice for the chillier times. The bathroom was nice sized; shower was nice with good water pressure. Sitting on the patio looking out at the mountains was breathtaking, we sat there often with a glass of wine and beer. They were able to accommodate us with a floor fan (I need the noise) and a clothes steamer. We did have a few "hiccups" with housekeeping that were resolved with apologies and promptly to our satisfaction. We were there over Easter and their Easter brunch was to die for. Our server even gave us a couple "to go" boxes so we could get some fruit and goodies to have on our trip to Yellowstone Park that day. The bartenders were one on the best parts of our stay, always pleasant, smiling and chatting it up. I had two of the best Aperol Spritz's ever, made two slightly different ways depending on the bartender, but both equally good. My husband went fly fishing with Sam for two days and had a great time catching fish and enjoying the scenery. He can't wait to go back and can't recommend Sam enough. He was also able to fly fish in the onsite stocked pond. I was able to spend one whole day at the spa. It is a wonderful set up with great relaxing area, saunas and an outside hot tub. The treatments were very relaxing and well done. I received, a massage, body wrap/scrub and facial. We ate at the lodge's Fireside Room each day for breakfast. The menu was small, but had good choices and they would accommodate requests if they could. We also ate dinner there a couple nights and really enjoyed the pasta dish and steak frites. We did have our anniversary dinner at "The Grill" restaurant on site, but unfortunately it was not prepared as it should have been. We were able to speak with the resorts dining general manager regarding the issues and she was able to offer an acceptable resolution. They do offer on onsite self-service laundry which I had planned to use, but did not need to. The lodge is only 30 minutes from the North entrance of Yellowstone Park, so we were able to visit the park for 5 of the 7 days we were there. We saw Bison, Bears, Coyotes, Big Horn Sheep, Elk, deer and other smaller animals. This is such a beautiful place, somewhere we cannot wait to return to. The scenery never gets old. I think the two things that make this resort an absolute gem and must visit are the employees and the location (in a valley with mountains surrounding and all kinds of wildlife). We can't wait to go back!!!!

100% recommend Sage Lodge. The accommodations were very nice, the staff was extremely helpful and friendly, and the view cannot be topped! Best experience we have had for overnight stays.

We had an amazing first vacation to Montana thanks to the Sage Lodge and their amazing staff. The rooms were cozy and provided breathtaking views of Emigrant Peak, the restaurants were delicious and offered plenty of variety, we booked all our excursions through the lodge and had 5 star experiences. Highly recommend this resort to anyone wanting to visit Paradise Valley, don't wait!

Everything at this location was fantastic. Staff were friendly, the room was great with an amazing view. We had a wonderful time!
