The Trapper Creek Guest House - Shell, Wy, at the foot of Big Horn Mountains.
History Captured in Wyoming Vacation Paradise
The Trapper Guest House is part of the historic Trapper Ranch, established in 1896 and located in the hamlet of Shell, Wyoming â East of Yellowstone National Park and Cody, at the foot of the little known Big Horn Mountains and National Forest. At 4200 feet, The Trapper Ranch is surrounded by breathtaking scenery in all directions. This area was first settled by pioneers in The Shell Valley and home to one of the first guest ranches in the area where famous travelers like Owen Wister, Teddy Roosevelt, Hemmingway, NC Wyeth, Julian Huxley (founder of WWF) and others vacationed. The Guest House is 3-bedroom log cottage build in 1928 and renovated in 2014. The pristine Trapper Creek runs miles through the property and next to The Guest House.
Enjoy the peace of small-town life, with the beauty of 650,000 acres of public lands as your back yard. For families traveling with ATV's, you can drive directly out from the Guest House onto miles and miles of trails leading into the Bighorn mountains. Nearby, you can enjoy fly-fishing and we would be happy to recommend our favorite local guides! We do also have a few stocked ponds on the property for your self-guided enjoyment. Watch the mountains begin to glow from the comfort of your front porch chair, as the sun rises and sets over the Bighorns. There's plenty of wildlife to see on our property, including mule deer, pronghorns, birds, and more. You might even catch a glimpse of The Hideout Herd of horses, as guests set off for their daily trail rides in the area!
Gas & Groceries can be found in Greybull, just a 20-minute drive away. For minor essentials, or a great lunch and cup of coffee you can head to the local Shell Store; or enjoy a beverage at the beautiful Shell Bar, which is open Weds-Saturday evenings. In a town of 74 people, every place feels like family.
For Paleontology and dinosaur lovers, the Red Gulch Dinosaur Tracksite is about 10 minutes away, visit the Medicine Lodge State Archaeological Site, or The Bighorn Basin GeoScience Center and Greybull Museum in the nearby town of Greybull, WY; just a 20-minute drive. This area is rich with history! Don't forget to stop by the Medicine Wheel, or just take a scenic drive on the Bighorn Scenic Byway (Hwy 14), and stop at the many overlooks along the way; with numerous hiking trails available!
The town of Cody, WY is only 1 hour West of Shell; and holds the title of the "Rodeo Capitol of the World"! Enjoy the Cody Nite Rodeo, which runs 7 days a week from June 1st to August 31st. There's plenty of restaurants, shopping, and nightlife as well.
There is no shortage of amazing memories to be made, with the Trapper Creek Guest House as your home base for your vacation to the Bighorn Mountains. Welcome to Wyoming!

Din vÀrd
My wife and I are Belgians who moved to Wyoming in 2007 together with our two twin sons of 13 at the time. After years working an International Corporate career we moved to Shell Wyoming to manage the guest ranch owned by the family. In the meantime we own the nearby The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch and The Trapper Creek Ranch. We live on The Trapper Creek Ranch property near The Guest House. Over the years we renovated the property and added and equestrian infrastructure. During some weeks the ranch is used as our Horsemanship Training & Clinic Center conducting clinic weeks limited to 4 participants only. The participants also use and stay in The Guest House. The rest of the year a growing number of travelers exploring the area with or without horses use The Guest House to vacation. The same cleaning & maintenance staff who take care of The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch also take care of The Trapper Guest House. The Hideout is an upscale riding ranch limited to 25 travelers from around the world.
Varför vÀrden valde detta boende
The property is located in a beautiful and unique setting. Very peaceful and quite. No light pollution, which means you will see many stars. There is plenty of wildlife in the area and spectacular views. It is a safe place. The property is almost entirely surrounded by public land. The Guest House dates from 1930 and was constructed by the Wyeth family who owned Wyeth Pharmaceuticals and was one of the two guest houses they added for their friends and family to stay. The owners live in the main lodge, which is the only example of American Art & Craft architecture. The Guest House was renovated in 2014 but still offers the feeling of an old style log home. The wooden floors are not all straight and will make squeaky noises when walking on them. We love sitting on the porch looking a Needle Rock, the red sandstone Chugwater formation that dominates the views. We care and love what we do!
Vad som gör detta boende unikt
Great location with million dollar views in all directions. The owners live on the property and really care about the property. Ideal location to explore the Shell area, The Big Horn Mountains and Big Horn National Forest or take a trip to Cody. Cody is located at the East Entrance of Yellowstone National Park approx. 1.15 hour drive from the ranch.
For hikers and mountain bikers there are endless trails to explore in the area. For horseback riders travelling with their own horses, there are two arenas, a round pen, 8 overnight pens and a tack shop. We can provide hay from the surrounding fields.
