Cozy, clean cabins. Clear directions for self check-in. Staff is friendly & nice. Shell Store is only dining in town (that I was aware of) but town of Greybull is nearby with additional dining options.

We loved staying at this cute little cabin. It was very clean and comfortable. A perfect place for our family to spend the night after the long day of driving and experiencing the Big Horn Mountains.

Perfectly fine cabins, self-checkin after dark would be helped by a cabin map. Mature shade trees.

Ours was a glamping tent with a bed. At first it was warm and humid. We had a fan in the tent that helped. The exciting part is we had wonder rain with thunder and lightning. It made the experience even better.

Very peaceful and quiet. The grocery store and bar up the road has the best burgers and my favorite Ale, Speed Goat. Beautiful sunsets and close to Shell waterfalls, closest to the Medicine wheel. Much cheaper than Lovell or Ten Sleep.
