Stunning views in every direction

We absolutely loved our stay! There's windows around the whole home with scenic views and even saw a few deer and hawks near the river during our stay. We slept with the windows and sliding door open so we could listen to the sound of rippling water from the river below. Only 30 minutes from the East entrance to Yellowstone with beautiful scenery along the way. Although the downstairs smelled of dog pee we were barely downstairs. It's disappointing people would allow their pets to do that and not clean up after them. I really appreciate such a nice home being pet friendly and would love to visit again.

Beautiful location, but…

This is definitely a cabin. It appears very cobbled together. Needs lots of maintenance both outside & in. 2nd bedroom, bath, & laundry are in the basement accessed by a narrow spiral staircase that was treacherous. Kitchen not very well equipped. Kitchen table only seats two. Views & location are fantastic. There was an issue with critters either in the cabin or trying to get in. Our friend sleeping in the basement was kept up all night & refused to sleep down there. Cody Lodging Co was very responsive & moved us to a different (beautiful) house a few miles down the road so that they could address the critter issue. Cody Lodging was great

Great location!

My wife and I come out to Wyoming every summer, and this is one of the best places we’ve stayed in. The location is stellar, so close to Yellowstone and close to Cody. We were there during the insane heatwave, so it was quite hot in the house, even with the bedroom AC, but that’s not a big deal. It was perfect for the two of us and our dogs. Definitely would stay again.

The views are amazing!

We enjoyed our stay but management needs to have the house cool for it’s guests in the summer. Amazing what leaving blinds down and fans on will do. 😊

Can get hot, but the location and house are awesome

We used this as a launching point to visit area attractions (Yellowstone, Cody, etc) so we were gone most of the day, but if the day was hot it could be a little hot in the house in the evening. That said, opening some windows allowed a nice breeze and it cooled off relatively well. The location is great - the views of the river and hills made a pleasant backdrop to morning breakfast, an evening cup of coffee, or whatever. The neighborhood is nice and quiet with some residents there and what seem to be a few other rentals, and it's spread out so you have lots of privacy and silence to enjoy nature.

Wonderful WY Gettaway

We loved staying at this wonderful Cody, WY gettaway. While our plans were to visit Yellowstone frequently during our stay, those plans changed with the historic closure of the park. We enjoyed the beautiful wildlife around us and found its close proximity to Cody and the most scenic drive in the state to be a wonderful experience. The house and Cody created memories we will treasure. Would stay here again when we return!
