Private North Platte River Estate on 35 Acres With Exclusive River Access.

Welcome to Bessemer Mountain Lodge, a private 35-acre riverfront estate on the North Platte River, offering a level of seclusion and access that is increasingly rare.

Step directly onto one of Wyoming’s most sought-after trout waters. With private river access and expansive open space, Bessemer is ideal for fly fishing groups seeking privacy, convenience, and a true western experience. Designed for groups who value space and privacy, the lodge comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests. Whether you’re planning a fishing retreat, family getaway, or small gathering, the setting offers a rare combination of natural beauty and quiet seclusion.
Only 20 minutes from town! Rates apply for first 6 guests. $25.00 for each guest over 6 persons.

This was a terrific stay! The house was very clean, the host was easy to communicate with, and fishing on the North Platte was fantastic (even late in the season). The house is much larger than it appears in the photos and there is a ton of room to spread out and have privacy if needed. Beds were comfortable and there was a lot of options for recreation both at the house and in the area. I had to do some work during our stay and the wifi worked well. No complaints and would rent again!
