We had 4 couples and 2 children stay here over the Thanksgiving holiday. Couldn't have asked for a better setup for us. The kitchen was large enough for us to cook all of our meals. Table seating was plentiful and the overall rustic cabin theme was right up our alley. Both the owner and property manager communicated extremely well and often. Will definitely look at the place for our future needs.

Perfect stay for family reunions yet romantic even for our first night
Our first night it was just my hubby and I. They have a room called honeymoon suite and it delivered the setting for a cozy date night! - Then the rest of the family arrived and we all had a blast in this spacious and clean wild west log house property. This place is easy to reach yet quiet. The gardens and mountain views helped us relax and get back to nature. Hot tub under the stars (no light pollution!) was fabulous. The kitchen is well equipped, the bbq outside worked well for our outdoor dinners. The great room was big enough for a grand dinner party. All the bathrooms spotless! Kids had enough space to play outside and have their own space indoors. We loved going to greet the horses at the back of the property when the sun was going down and it painted the mountains golden. We had an amazing experience and are already talking about coming back next year with our bikes. There is plenty of safe space to park our trailers and Harleys. In Cody the Buffalo Bill Museum is worth visiting but you need an entire day to see it all: plains Indian, natural history, fine art, guns, and of course a big wing for the one and only Buffalo Bill.

To rustic
Nice location. Needs updating and some tender loving care. Needs better air conditioning. Landscaping could use some help. Couldn’t be outdoors much because of mosquitoes. Beds need updating.

Family Trip
Our stay was very enjoyable. The lodge was perfect for our 8 adults and 4 kids ages five and under. The kitchen and dining area were great. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning was not great in the kitchen, but there were plenty of fans to draw cool air from the dining area. We have wonderful memories from our stay at the lodge!
