Like being in a Western movie set!!!

This beautiful Wyoming cottage is excellent- beautiful views on the deck in the front and in the back, and from every window! You will be right in the middle of real, authentic Western country..... and not too far from the city of Cody for a fantastic museum experience and a nighttime rodeo! Additionally, the eastern gate of Yellowstone awaits only a half hour away. Amazing, gorgeous drives are all around the area, which the owners kindly assist in planning with their guests. The gracious hostess of the cottage makes beautifully presented and delicious tasting breakfasts everyday for the guests who are fortunate enough to stay at this cozy retreat. You couldn't stay at a more relaxing place than this.... and with the most genuine and caring owners!!!!

AMAZING!!

Everything was perfect. From the check in, communication with the host, sleeping arrangements, cleanliness, and the yummy food - our stay was just right! In fact, I would rate it higher if I could. The cottage had everything we needed. The view is spectacular. The hosts were warm, welcoming, and even gave us tips on where to go in Yellowstone. In addition, the location was perfect to travel to the East Gate of Yellowstone National Park. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by RODNEY TRIPP

Suzie and Rod have been married for over 30 years. They met in Cody Wyoming where Suzie was born and raised. They moved to California, where Rod grew up, and raised three wonderful children, Ben, Sara and Sam. Rod retired after a 28 year career with East Bay Municipal Utility District where he helped manage 28,000 acres of open space as a Ranger Supervisor, coached lots of the kids’ sports teams, and took the family skiing, hunting and fishing. Suzie chauffeured the children to all their events, worked for various catering businesses, and owns and operates Suzie’s Cookies.

We also own and operate Grub Steak Expeditions, where we provide tours to Yellowstone National Park and surrounding areas. Please contact us if you’d like to book a tour with Grub Steak Expeditions. We also have four cats and two dogs. All of our animals are outside animals, but the cats come running when guests arrive and expect to accompany them into the house.
