AMAZING
The best experience!! The owner stayed in great communication which made it a great experience!! A beautiful place!! SO clean, SO cozy, and well furnished!! A roomy kitchen which is fully stocked with dish ware and appliances! The pool table was also a big hit for our family!! A great place for a weekend getaway!! I’d recommend using google maps for the address instead of Apple Maps because Apple Maps didn’t bring us to the final destination so we had to blindly guess for a little while and go off of the directions the owner sent. Would definitely recommend to everybody :))

Beautiful and Peaceful
Great place, very comfortable, handled eight guests with ease. Views are spectacular, deer and antelope in the fields every day. If you don't mind being 30 minutes outside of town this is perfect.

Wyoming Oasis
The lodge was located far enough away from the nearest town, which was Thermopolis, WY, to make arriving there feel like it was an oasis in the high-dessert, sagebrush hills. It had a perfectly sized and maintained lawn which we used for kickball/whiffle ball games with the kids and for corn hole games with the adults. The tire swing was a huge hit with the grandkids. The kitchen was large accommodated lots of food and buffet-style meals. The oven was a little quirky and heats unevenly, but we figured it out. We would have really liked an outdoor gas grill for cooking. We were admittedly a little hesitant about the remoteness of the lodge, but it turned out great! We had a great time with no noisy neighbors. The bird watching by the pond and campfires by the fire pit were fun. The lodge was very nice and comfortable. Everyone had a bed and the mattresses were actually comfortable. The dining areas were spacious. Recommend bringing pots and pans for any special food you want to prepare. There is no griddle or large frying pan provided for the stove so plan accordingly. Other than that, the kitchen is fully stocked. Lots of towels for everyone and the water pressure was fabulous. We did park inside the gated property due to the abundant free range cows. Our experience tells us cars make great scratching posts with broken side mirrors and dents received in the past. Lastly, the front porch is great for sunrises and watching T-Storms. Great place! Would recommend it highly.

We had a wonderful time. The house is very spacious and great for a family gathering. Follow the instructions given and DO NOT ENTER THE ADDRESS IN YOUR GPS! We got there after dark and made this mistake adding several miles to our drive. I would definitely stay here again!
