Top Virginia City Hotel Reviews

Dream Drift Motel

Dream Drift Motel

10/10 Excellent
"It's a very beautiful, comfortable and quiet place to stay. We stayed for six nights at this very friendly motel. Our dog had a great time with owners dog Wally. West Yellowstone is about an hour drive and town of Ennis is around 14 minutes, close enough for anything you might need, but far enough to preserve the quiet beauty of this lovely area."
