This was our favorite place to stay along our 4,000 mile roundtrip journey to Yellowstone! It was just a great location for a laid back stop. The owners were great and so helpful! They definitely went above and beyond on our trip and we couldn't be more thankful! We would stay here 100 more times!
Our visit to Cody was about family. We booked our stay up in the mountains and couldn't have asked for a more beautiful place!! We rented 3 cabins and a pavilion for a private family gathering. Everything was amazing and worked out perfectly. We definitely plan on staying there again in the future.
Fun was had by all! We rented all three units and it worked out great. We stayed to go to Sleeping Giant Ski Resort and they hooked us up with discount lift tickets. Thanks
My family of six enjoyed this roomy log cabin lodge. The kiddos slept in the big open area and we had a bit more privacy in the front room with a huge sliding door. There were plenty of cooking supplies and spices on hand. Check in and out was super easy. This location is about 20 miles from Yellowstone with a beautiful drive to Cody or the park. I’m so glad we found this spot. Super hot water inside and a great Mountain View all around

The property would be good for a family of two adults and two small children. Was one room with a bathroom.
The day we arrived it was unusually hot (96) and the AC could not cool the place down. It blew circuit breaker’s at least twice before we gave up. At first the window would not open, then it wouldn’t close. Upon reporting it, I was told they couldn’t get someone to come out and fix it. Either way, after a storm came through in the middle of the night (and blew rain through the uncloseable window onto the bed our friends were sleeping in), it cooled down — to say the least.
The website is misleading. Recommend you contact the host to ensure the layout is what you think it is. The listing leads you to believe it is one unit when it is at least three. We made it work, but good thing we were close friends.
Stayed here for two nights on vacation and enjoyed this cabin. The furnishings were great, couch comfortable enough to sleep on if we had needed it.
My family's favorite part about the cabin was late at night looking out the windows at the stars, we have stars at home, they just look different in the mountains.
The part we didn't like was the RV section immediately out the door so we just kept our curtains closed to avoid seeing a gentleman using the restroom outside again.
Overall it was lovely, would stay again!
My husband and I were celebrating our 39th wedding anniversary. We went to Yellowstone National Park. The cabin was nice and comfortable. Everything you need for a very nice vacation.
This is the second time we've stayed at one of Brad and Erin's properties. The properties are always clean and well appointed and they provide incredible service on site. If there is anything you need they make sure they are available to help you.
For this stay Brad greeted us at the property around check in so we knew which door to go in . The check in process is simple enough anyway. They provide a lot of area information and recommendations and they are perfectly situated at the mouth of the canyon for easy access with minimal driving. If you want to take a trip into Cody it's a 25 minute drive or so.
There is so much wildlife! Mule deer often walk through the property and just up the canyon you can see Bison, white tail and mule deer, bald eagles, river otters, and Rocky Mtn Big Horn sheep. There are hiking trails and things to do outside of Yellowstone not to mention a trip into yellow stone. The Buffalo Bill Center of the West museum is incredible as far as museums go. They have the largest collection of firearms on display in the country and a huge section on Buffalo Bill, his wild west show and friends, not to mention a natural history section and fine art section all within one building. We spent a couple of hours in the museum one afternoon and it was well worth it.
This property was just what we needed, spacious - it could accommodate our crew, comfortable and best of all we could bring our dogs which is so important to us. They made a four day stay relaxing and the whole trip easy on us.
Talk about friendliness and communication! The directions were spot on! We arrived super late so we didn’t get to see how beautiful the property was till we woke up to see the sunrise through the amazing windows on the second floor unit. We had to switch units for the second day which we were asked ahead of time and had arranged. It was super easy and we had left a few items in the other unit and were able to retrieve them with the help of the the host. Would definitely stay here again. We actually can’t wait to!
The people who run this place really care. Sleep well knowing you chose a wonderful place to be.

The two units we rented were not like pictures on the site. They are actually one room with the bath separate. We had the bottom unit and our view from our patio was a bunch of rvs. The units needed repairs. Coffee pot had to be turned on and off several times before it would work. We never did get the internet up and we were there for 7 days. We had two towels for the week stay and were told we had to ask if we needed more. We did after 3 days and they brought only two more. There were two gas grills and they did bring a charcoal grill when we asked but the leg was rusted off and had to put a log under it. Legs were falling off the table so you had to keep knocking in back in place. I thought the units came with a washer and dryer but we were told we had to pay $5.00 a load if we wanted to use the ones on the site. There were none in our units. The restaurant attached to the bottom unit in the front by the road had great food and the staff were awesome! We had breakfast there twice. Owners were friendly and cooperative and tried to meet our needs when asked.
