Western Lodge in Wapiti Valley near Yellowstone
About this lodge
Located in Wyoming, this charming lodge for $175 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. This spacious lodge on the Wapiti Valley Ranch is located in the Wapiti Valley, halfway between Cody, Wyoming and the East Gate of Yellowstone National Park. Teddy Roosevelt once called the highway between Cody and Yellowstone as the “most scenic 52 miles in America”. Situated very near the highway, 30 miles from the East Gate, and 22 miles from Cody, the Lodge is an ideal home base for exploring the area. Guests enter into the great room with a rustic seating area, a day bed with trundle, and a dining area. The commercial-sized kitchen is fully equipped and opens into the great room. The single bathroom in the lodge is behind the kitchen. Upstairs there are two bedrooms each with a full-sized bed, dresser, and seating. One bedroom is a loft open to the great room and is accessible only through the first bedroom.

Awesome location, very relaxing just sitting on the front porch and taking in the majestic mountain view. The cabin was very clean , large and everything we needed for our 8 day stay. We visited Yellowstone and the scenic drive approximately 30 miles to the east entrance was beautiful. We also visited Cody which was a bonus with the Beautiful Buffalo Bill Dam and State Park plus lots to see in town. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to everyone whose looking for an amazing vacation.

Experience Yellowstone like a local and stay at Yvonne and Doug's ranch. The location is prime to go anywhere in the park.
Yvonne is just a text/email away. Doug had lots of tips for restaurants and activities.
The lodge was perfect for 4 adults and the large kitchen and dining area are perfect to relax after a day out on the trails.
The piano ( slightly out of tune) was the cherry on top the cake.
We will definitely come back.

The lodge is located on a vast parcel of property. It seems to be one of 4 rentals available for people. It’s an old camp- the lodge specifically was probably the kitchen. If your family is comfortable with rustic this is a great value. Was a perfect to start our days from.

Great ranch stay!
We had a wonderful stay at the ranch! The porch views were amazing and the country around it so peaceful and beautiful. The lodge had the perfect cowboy vibe for our trip. We were able to visit Yellowstone many days and it is not far from Cody where we had a blast at the rodeo! It appears as it is online, the only tricky part was the one bathroom. The kitchen was huge and great for preparing dinners. Doug was very helpful and a delightful host. I highly recommend the lodge for a perfect ranch stay!

Great location. Very quiet. Only a short drive to Cody and Yellowstone. Owners were very responsive to any needs or concerns. Loved the log cabin lodge “feel” of the property.
If in the area, I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderfully remote but easy to get to everything
It was very comfortable yet rustic. We loved the location in the hills and the lack of light pollution. Yellowstone is close though of course still a bit of a drive. The place is quite large and the sleeping areas are a little unusual but they are comfortable and everyone had some privacy. There’s only one half bath on the first floor so don’t be surprised. We’d stay here again if visiting again.

Wonderful property in a beautiful setting with amazing hosts.
Our family had an amazing stay with Doug and Yvonne at their beautiful property. The cabin was extremely clean and spacious being located in a private setting with wonderful views. Upon arriving Doug gave us a warm welcome sharing knowledge of the area as well as answering any questions we had. Throughout our entire stay both Doug and Yvonne went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic family vacation. I highly recommend this property as well as Doug and Yvonne. You will not meet hosts that are more caring and genuine. Our family truly hopes we have the pleasure and privilege of staying with Doug and Yvonne again in the future. Thank You Doug and Yvonne!

We used this as our “base camp” for our family visit to Yellowstone/Tetons/Cody trip. Great location for everything. Lodge was simple, clean and just what we were looking for to avoid crowds. Hosts are even better! Enjoyed our conversations and the tips they gave us. We loved the scenery of Yellowstone and Tetons and kids had a blast at the Cody Nite Rodeo. Definitely recommend this place.

Hunting Lodge stay
The owners were very friendly and accessible. The lodge itself, was a bit different than we expected from looking at the pictures. The bathroom is tiny and the kitchen is a huge, industrial kitchen. One of the 3 beds is in the main lodge room and our 13 y/o was afraid to sleep downstairs alone. Also, note that if you plan to visit Yellowstone from here, most of the main attractions are on the West side of the park. Very convenient to Cody, beautiful setting away from it all.
