10 Top-Rated Specialty lodgings in Wyoming

April 19, 2023 Toi Mattera

Wyoming boasts a positively selfish hoard of natural outdoor beauty! From the soaring peaks of the Grand Tetons to Jackson Hole valley and Yellowstone National Park, the mountain landscape and natural wonders of Wyoming are breathtaking. All-season outdoor activities prove a natural draw for families, couples and group getaways. Sports lovers golf through spring and summer at attractive rates or tackle river and lake fishing, hunting and hiking. Families take to Alpine skiing and snowmobiling in Jackson Hole, Snow King, Grand Targhee and Pine Creek. Every visitor is awed by the deep canyons and steaming geysers of The Yellowstone National Park. Each magnificent sight rivals the next. The Grand Tetons rise over a mile above Jackson Hole valley, where a ride on the Aerial Tram from Teton Village offers unforgettable views. Across the entire state, wildlife stakes its rightful claim, from bison and bighorn sheep herds to black bear and mountain elk. For a step back in frontier history, take the family to Go Native America to experience Native American culture, history and arts of the Plains Tribes. Enjoy tours with indigenous guides, horseback riding and roping lessons. With every experience, your family will gain a sense of the pioneer spirit that pushed America westward.

Townhomes on the Green

Not Your Run-of-the Mill Lodging

Reviewed By Mike P

It took me a bit to catch on that Townhomes on the Green was actually located on a golf course. I thought it was great. Quiet. Very clean. And a really nice room. Checking in and out is quick and painless. And, since Afton consists of one main thoroughfare, easy access to the town. It is not your ordinary place to stay and I will definitely stay here again.

Douglas Inn and Conference Center

Do. Not. Stay. Here

Reviewed By Riwist

Run down. Noisy. Poor service. Terrible breakfast. Stay anywhere else in Douglas but here. Room was barely passible, but the curtains sheers were ripped and the screen torn. A place for contract utility workers, not for couples.

Sunset Inn

A little rough but cozy and quiet

Reviewed By Robert B

Upon arriving I was not sure what to expect. The entry to the office consists of sort of a mud room with a key return box in it. But the young lady at the front desk was very sweet although she seemed a bit distracted when I arrived. I believe the hotel has 3 main areas with rooms. My room was toward the back in the 2 story building. There were a couple of old looking gas grills outside, but there were also flowers planted that made for a nice appearance. The inside of the room was somewhat spartan -- a large area and a cozy looking bed. The young lady had warned me that the room would probably smell of Lysol from when she had cleaned it earlier that day, and it did. When I walked across the room the first thing I noticed was the creaky floor. Obviously this is an older property that had been given a cosmetic makeover. But the TV worked, the bathroom fixtures were in good shape, and there was a microwave. The area above the sink appeared to be unfinished and old, but there were signs of TLC all around: A basket with extra washcloths, to be used to clean grime (probably intended for the energy industry workers who stay there), a couple of complimentary bottles of water, a package of microwave popcorn, and a granola bar. As I really didn't feel like exploring the eating places in town I appreciated having the popcorn and granola bar. Once in awhile I could hear somewhere upstairs walking across their creaky floor, but for the most part it was quiet. And I slept great. Looking back, with Covid going on I probably paid too much for this room, but I was happy to give this place a chance.

Star Valley Lodge

Beautiful lodge in a spectacular setting!

Reviewed By jamesmK2457AP

Wow! was our first word when entering Star Valley Lodge! It was warm and welcoming and every inch was spotless. The furnishings bring out the lifestyle and history of the region with a focus on the cowboy. The exquisite stone fire place in the main room provided warmth and solitude. The lodge overlooks a valley nestled beneath the mountains of Bridger National Forest. Available ATVs allowed for closer experiences with nature through the forest and the area around Strawberry Reservoir. The beautiful kitchen lacks for nothing. Outside you will find a large grill, two decks, outside fire kettle, and a gas fire pit. The site coordinator is extremely friendly, helpful, knowledgeable about the area, and makes sure you have everything you need. We were also given a tour of the amazing guest house for smaller groups. We would highly recommend Star Valley Lodge for family vacations any time of the year!

The Mill House

Wonderful refuge!

Reviewed By Sarah G

I came to Lander to visit my son in March of 2020. The Mill House was a wonderful place to stay, and a great refuge during these difficult times. It was immaculate and incredibly comfortable. The "Penthouse" was well appointed with a kitchen that had everything that we needed (including locally roasted delicious Wyoming coffee!). Jessica helped us and was wonderful - accessible, helpful, knowledgeable, flexible. I will happily return.

Worst motel experience

Reviewed By I670SUallenh

Terrible motel... very poorly maintained and housekeeping leaves much to be desired. Booked a kitchenette room for a week, we had two gas leaks in our room, no bottom sheet on bed, fridge froze all our food, hot water heater quit. Requested another room and moved to a two queen non-kitchenette room which had a garbage bag stapled over door where glass should've been, then heater quit. Discussed these issues with owner and requested a discounted rate which he agreed to. He then billed us more than was agreed and when we refused to pay extra we were asked to leave, accused of trespassing and the sheriff was called. I have never had a worse interaction with a motel... and I have travelled extensively. I would recommend ANY other motel than this one in Dubois!
