Had a dream stay in this beautiful cabin at the foothills of the Big Horn National Forest. Melanie really looked out for me, and made sure I arrived safely with detailed instructions and guidance. Could have sat there staring at NeedlePoint rock the whole time - but I did force myself into the mountains and cannot believe how beautiful this whole area is - the visit to Medicine Wheel was worth it.

Perfect stay with Wyoming character

Our stay at Trapper Creek Guest House was perfect: fantastic views in a private setting, comfortable and spacious accommodations--the log cabin has both heritage and modern touches, and great as a base, both to the Bighorn Mountains and to Greybull and Cody and surrounding area. We loved eating at the big plank table on the front porch, looking toward the rock formations and listening to the birds and the creek nearby. Wish we could have stayed there all summer!

The Trapper Creek Guest House was an excellent stay. Accurate description - you will get exactly what you expect from the VRBO description. Melanie came out of the office to greet us as we were pulling into the driveway to check in, and Peter stopped to say hello as he drove by. Both could not have been nicer. The complimentary treat basket and wine were very much appreciated. If I could make just a few suggestions, it would be: a) allow the guests to park at the guest house rather than behind the caretaker’s house; b) have the gas grill clean and ready to use; and c) have ice in the ice trays. All minor details, but they go a long way for weary travelers. Loved the stay - very highly recommend - you won’t be disappointed!

Heaven in Wyoming

Quintessential Wyoming ranch house..spotless, impeccably kept, decorated and supplied. The house and grounds were absolutely gorgeous. Friendly, accommodating and responsive hosts. I can't say enough good things about this experience...other than it was absolutely fantastic and I would book it again in an instant.
