Located half between Cody and the Park just where we wanted to be. Owners were very hands on and welcoming. Restaurant and bar very fun, and the beds were just the best. Could not get cell phone calls, but that was probably for the best on vacation.

This was a cute place to stay for a night, not much around so definitely just a sleep and go, would drive the next 20 min to Cody for more choices. But a good bed and fairly decent bar food right there.

The room I stayed in was absolutely adorable. It had a quilt on the bed, beautiful furnishings that were unique and stylish. The room had a small kitchen with a wonderful fridge and a big microwave, two burner stove along with dishes to cook with. The bathroom was large and well appointed. I also was allowed access to an outer living room area complete with fireplace. I felt so at home in the cozy, wonderful place. I ate in the attached restaurant and the food was okay and fairly priced. I would stay here again anytime. I stayed in 7 different places on my trip, and this was by far my favorite lodging. You will love it!

Stayed in Roosevelt. Shower curtains were mildew/moldy and gave much of the unit that mildewed smell; generally felt not as clean as all other stays on our roadtrip. We wish we would have instead stayed at another property or further back in Cody.

We loved that it was cozy and clean! Close enough to Yellowstone. I wish we would have known before booking that the only food option was to drive the 20 miles (each way) to Cody. The website says there is a restaurant on site. When we finally saw the owner (only staff we had interaction with) on the morning of checkout, she said the restaurant didn't open until Thursday. We were there on Tuesday. If you like a "no contact" stay this is the place for you!

We loved Wapiti Lodge! We stayed in the Langford Suite and it was perfect - clean, roomy, comfortable, with all the amenities and then some (breakfast basket in the fridge, plenty of coffee and tea). The owners were suberb - friendly, personable, and helpful. The restaurant was also wonderful - we had two great dinners there - delicions food and excellent service. The location is beautiful and we hope to be back at Wapiti lodge again some day.

The most comfy beds on our whole road trip! I could have stayed in them for days! The room was spotless and super roomy. Almost like a mini apartment. The room was surprisingly quiet even though it sits right on the highway.

Op zich leuke locatie en hotel op doorreis naar Yellowstone/Mount Rushmore. Bed, dwz de matras, was echter heel heel slecht. Zeer slecht geslapen op een te zacht matras dat naar het midden verder doorzakte. Brisket bij diner was lekker en kampvuur was ook top. Vanwege het bed zou ik dit hotel afraden.

We spent three nights here while we toured Yellowstone. This lodge exceeded our expectations! The Roosevelt room was more like an apartment, it was perfect! Ample space for a family of four. The restaurant on property is great, too. Food can take a little while to be served, but the Cowboy sandwich especially is worth the wait! The owner is very friendly and welcoming. It’s a bit of a drive from Yellowstone, but it’s a pretty drive, and the room and food were more than worth it. Highly recommend!

Room was spotless and big. Everything we needed. Breakfast basket was a wonderful touch and time saver in the morning. The restaurant was wonderful. Music on Friday was great. Hosts were super friendly. Loved being able to walk down to the river and fish. Plenty of open grassy area to walk around and tables set around to picnic or just chill outside.

We spent three nights here while we toured Yellowstone. This lodge exceeded our expectations! The Roosevelt room was more like an apartment, it was perfect! Ample space for a family of four. The restaurant on property is great, too. Food can take a little while to be served, but the Cowboy sandwich especially is worth the wait! The owner is very friendly and welcoming. It’s a bit of a drive from Yellowstone, but it’s a pretty drive, and the room and food were more than worth it. Highly recommend!

We loved that it was cozy and clean! Close enough to Yellowstone. I wish we would have known before booking that the only food option was to drive the 20 miles (each way) to Cody. The website says there is a restaurant on site. When we finally saw the owner (only staff we had interaction with) on the morning of checkout, she said the restaurant didn't open until Thursday. We were there on Tuesday. If you like a "no contact" stay this is the place for you!

This was a cute place to stay for a night, not much around so definitely just a sleep and go, would drive the next 20 min to Cody for more choices. But a good bed and fairly decent bar food right there.

We loved Wapiti Lodge! We stayed in the Langford Suite and it was perfect - clean, roomy, comfortable, with all the amenities and then some (breakfast basket in the fridge, plenty of coffee and tea). The owners were suberb - friendly, personable, and helpful. The restaurant was also wonderful - we had two great dinners there - delicions food and excellent service. The location is beautiful and we hope to be back at Wapiti lodge again some day.

The room I stayed in was absolutely adorable. It had a quilt on the bed, beautiful furnishings that were unique and stylish. The room had a small kitchen with a wonderful fridge and a big microwave, two burner stove along with dishes to cook with. The bathroom was large and well appointed. I also was allowed access to an outer living room area complete with fireplace. I felt so at home in the cozy, wonderful place. I ate in the attached restaurant and the food was okay and fairly priced. I would stay here again anytime. I stayed in 7 different places on my trip, and this was by far my favorite lodging. You will love it!

Room was large (3 beds) with a full kitchen. However, restaurant was closed Sunday and Mondays. This was very inconvenient since nothing else was open this time of year in the area. We would have had to drive back to Cody (over 30 miles) for food.

Beth was so nice explaining everything about the resort. The cabin reminded me of my childhood fishing outings. Thank you Beth for our stay.

We stayed in the Hunter's Cabin while exploring Yellowstone NP. The property is quiet even though it is conveniently located right off of the highway that leads to Yellowstone through the beautiful Wapiti Valley, and the cabin was clean and had what was needed to prepare meals.

All good. Only one major concern, the bath towels were stacked right next to the toilet, tank high, down. Need a shelf or another place to keep
