About Us

Yellowstone Basin Inn

The Yellowstone Basin Inn in Gardiner, Montana was built in 1994, with the finishing touches completed in 2001. Greg and Sabina Strauss bought the Inn in 2004, and after years of managing other lodging facilities around the country, this new venture was a dream come true.







The Strausses

Greg and Sabina met each other while they were both living and working in Los Angeles, California. Greg was an LA native, and Sabina, originally from the Czech Republic, moved there in 1982. As a couple, the Strausses moved to Lake Tahoe. Over the years, Greg has built up more than 20 years of experience working in the hospitality industry, running small inns in Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, and worked for a major hotel chain in Lake Tahoe. Sabina has worked in human resources and accounting, also in Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, and Lake Tahoe.

In 2004 with resort operations experience under their belts, they sought out a place of their own, leading them to new adventures in the West with the Yellowstone Basin Inn.

 

Philosophy

At Yellowstone Basin Inn, we value Yellowstone’s fragile ecosystem and feel very strongly about our need to tread lightly and add value to the local community. Therefore, we make every effort to recycle our trash and bath soaps (Clean the World), donate to the local food pantry, use as many natural cleaning products as possible, and buy local, sustainable, and/or organic products for our home-cooked from scratch breakfasts and lunches when available.

The furniture in some of our rooms is locally handcrafted by Montana Woodworks, a company that uses dead, standing trees harvested without heavy equipment.
