The Northeast Entrance Station to Yellowstone National Park, in Park County, Montana, is a rustic log building that serves its purpose admirably. Designed by the National Park Service Branch of Plans and Design under the direction of Thomas Chalmers Vint, it was built in 1935.[3] The entrance station stands across US 212 near Cooke City, Montana. A combined ranger station and residence is located nearby. All buildings were constructed by George Larkin of Gardiner, Montana.[4]

As a pristine example of its type, and being an ambitious one for its time, it was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987.[2][5]
