Charming, Convenient, Clean!

This charming home was perfect for our recent visit to Cody. The living room was perfect for visiting with family and playing cards. It had everything that you could possibly need. We ate out because there are so many great places to eat in Cody. Finally, I have never stayed in a vrbo that was this clean. It was beyond clean. We will definitely stay here again!

Immaculate, beautiful and cozy home away from home!

We will definitely have fond memories about our stay in this cottage! Amy and Jared were so nice, prompt and considerate of us and our time. The cottage was so, so clean and cozy. We rented the Papa Bear Cottage and since the Mama Bear and Baby Bear Cottages are next door, they would be a great family getaway with older kids and their families!

Great Place

5 stars for this property and host. Clean, current and well situated. The only thing, and I have to dive deep is the house is on a major street. But, Cody Wyoming in the winter time is not a problem.
