I wanted to get away from my city obligations, no distractions, somewhere I'd have complete privacy yet not be so isolated that I felt vulnerable (or that I couldn't easily get coffee or groceries). The house is cozy and homey, with everything a writer would want and need for a few days or longer. It's not an upscale place-- that is, if you want luxury, look elsewhere-- but it's sweet, quiet, clean, and everything you could want is provided. You'll have a car of course (because, otherwise, you won't be able to get to Thermopolis) and you'll need it to get around and visit the remarkable area, but the house is well-situated next to a laundromat, a 2-minute walk from fast food, a 3-minute walk to the grocery store, a 3-minute drive to downtown (health food store, coffee shop, diner, sandwich shops and other places to eat) and it's a 5-minute drive to the hot springs thermal pools. There's a mature, semi-wild garden of grasses, hollyhocks, bushes and trees that makes a good, green barrier between the house and street, and in the morning, you'll see a family of deer grazing around the shrubs. I was there a couple of very productive weeks and hope to come back for another week in the future. Thermopolis is a quiet little town surrounded by geological and other natural and cultural wonders, from its red bluffs ...to the Wind River Canyon... to the petroglyphs at Legend Rock ...to the travertine formation and hot pools of the springs...to the nearby tribal lands. While the place is perfect for one, it is big enough for two, but there's just one bedroom/one bed, so I wouldn't recommend it for non-intimate friends; it seems it would feel tight.
