EDRA BLIXSETH
Owner & Developer

The notion of forming Yellowstone Club began in the mid 1990’s. Edra wanted a place where she could relax and enjoy her family. As more friends came to visit, it became apparent that there was an opportunity to share the wonderful experience with others of like mind, with a strong family orientation.

Since it’s conception in the mid 1990’s, Edra has worked closely with each operation responsible for the formation and growth of Yellowstone Club. She was intimately involved in the planning and implementation of the day-to-day experience at the Club.

“I love the fact that YC expresses who I am and what is important to me in life. After all, my children and grandchildren have had a very positive impact on the evolution of the Club.”, says Edra, “it’s all about the multi generational opportunity to share a one-of-a-kind, year round Montana outdoor experience with others and watch the joy it brings. “I love watching Members, their families and friends come together as a community and feel like they are real part of the fabric of Yellowstone Club – and they are! The Members make it great and we have a Staff second to none!

As a result of the Member, Staff, Club interaction - Yellowstone Club is a place of magic, where dreams come true.
