About this property

Just steps away from the Big Horn River

Enjoy your stay in Thermopolis at this newer construction, 3 bedroom 2 bath home. The Big Horn river is one of the best fisheries in the state, and you have access to it right outside your doors. On any given morning it is the norm to see pheasants or deer walking by, along with many different species of waterfowl enjoying the waters of the river. Easy access to the town of Thermopolis, which offers a world class dinosaur museum, and two commercial swimming pools where you can enjoy the water from the natural mineral hot springs. Boysen reservoir is 30min away, while the scenic town of Cody, and Yellowstone Park are within a 2 hour drive. The Riverview Guesthouse is great if you are in town to fish, hunt, explore the local area, or for a base while making day trips. We do not have a TV with DVD player and HD antenna for local channels. Our intent with this guesthouse is to help people engage more with each other and their surroundings, while getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The location is ideal to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, and board games are provided if weather keeps you indoors. The trout fishing along this stretch of the river is very good with both public and private access to the river. This location allows nearly 6,000 feet of public fishing access along the river bank downstream from the house, and almost 2,000 feet of private river access upstream. We do have kayaks available on request, along with tour opportunities in Thermopolis and the surrounding area.

We had the best time at this home. It was perfect for our family, and a great way to get away from it all and just relax. The home was clean and was stocked with everything we could have imagined needing. The owner is friendly and quick to respond with any questions. We would 100% recommend this home to friends and will most definitely book again in the future!!

The setting is beautiful and the house was well appointed. We brought Starlink for wifi so we could catch a few games; cell coverage was fine though. We'd stay again for our next fishing trip on the Big Horn.

The house was perfect for the three of us to stay while fishing on the Big Horn River for a few days. It's only a 10 minute drive out of town but is well worth the drive for the riverfront location and the views from the house. Very easy check-in / check-out process, the beds were comfortable and the house was super clean and well supplied with everything you would need. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are ever in the area:)

Fishing Get Away

Place was perfect for a small group of guys. Close enough to town but also just far enough away. Fishing is good out front but you need a raft/kayak to get on the islands so keep that in mind.

Excellent location and property, very nice house with everything you need. Would definitely stay again. If you're planning on fishing bring waders or 24" waterproof boots. Not a great bank for shoes. Bright colored rooster tails caught us a dozen 20" rainbows all weekend, phenomenal fishing.

About the host

Hosted by Sherman Skelton

Host profile image
Growing up my family ranched in the area, and we farmed on the hay fields around the vacation property. I am very familiar with the area and am more than happy to give any input on additional things to do or see during your stay in Thermopolis.

Why they chose this property

My great grandparents farm house was right across the road from the vacation property. I am the fourth generation to own this property, and had always dreamt of building something near the river. It was a dream come true when I broke ground on "the cabin" in the spring of 2013. The project was made even more rewarding by the fact that I was able to build the house with the help of my father, and under the watchful eyes of my 2 year old son. I truly wanted this to be a multi generational project. I worked 4 days a week in Casper, and then drove to Thermopolis and worked on the house every Fri-Sun for the next two years. There are still some projects to to on the property, but we have really enjoyed sharing our place with people from around the country.
