We very much enjoyed our stay in Jelm at the “Bunk House” of the property. Views were amazing. House was great. Check-in and communication was very easy. Thumbs up!!
Such a beautiful property! Fishing was phenomenal right outside the house. The recent rains have brought some unwelcomed mosquitoes but that was to be expected. The house had everything that we needed and we had a relaxing week. Will definitely be back!
The property on the river was ideal! The cabin was very clean and amenities were great! Leslie, the owner, was very responsive to questions. Overall a great vacation!

Beautiful quiet and very private location.
The property and cabin are well kept and very clean. The kitchen was well
stocked with anything we could have possibly needed. The beds and linens were very clean as was the bathroom.
There basically is no TV as it was not hooked up to cable or the satellite on the roof. The WiFi comes from the larger cabin and was very weak at best in our cabin. A booster would help tremendously as there is no way to receive emails etc. and there is no cell service nor is there a land line in the smaller cabin. Thank god the pool table was in the cabin as it gave us several hours of great entertainment each night.
My oldest son and I brought our enduro motorcycles to ride trails and back roads throughout the are. This was a great location as it sits just off a paved highway and is within a 15 minute ride to great trails in both Wyoming and Colorado.
We did enjoy the peacefulness of the property and the night sky is amazing!
We enjoyed fishing and caught a few trout however it would have been nice if it mentioned on VRBO this is a catch and release property only.
I have stayed at quit a few properties like this over the years and I have to say this place is very nice and clean. Especially when you take into account it’s remote location (not hard to get to though).
Really enjoyed our stay and hope to do so again soon.

We are very happy you enjoyed your stay. Nothing beats the night sky and peacefulness of the area. Thank you for your feedback.
You are correct about the TV...there is no cable offered in our area (close but not to us) and satellite has proven spotty at best. There is a dvd player and we have been able to play Netflix via the internet. I am sorry you had trouble with the access. There is a booster. We are rechecking the entire system and will amend. Staying in touch certainly makes it easier to stay outside!
I revised the listing and noted our catch & release policy in multiple places.
We look forward to hosting you again! All Our Best, Leslie & Ken
