Guests appreciate the historic character, quiet forest setting, and frequent wildlife sightings around the property. Common drawbacks include no in-room Wi‑Fi or cell service, no TVs or air conditioning, thin walls, and occasional maintenance or pest issues; some also find prices high for what is provided. Best for travelers who prioritize park access over modern tech and extensive amenities.

Pahaska Tepee Resort is “a cabin on the woods” in all senses. The A-frame houses have 3-4 small rooms under one roof. All are wooden and rustic ally but comfortably furnished. No Internet! The hotel front desk and gift shop are combined and are next to the restaurant, which has a small but good and authentic menu—including moose meatloaf! There is a grocery store/convenience store next door owned by the resort which serves coffee and breakfast fare. The resort is on a highway between the east entrance to Yellowstone and Cody, Wyoming. Truly in the middle of nowhere!

We stayed at this property on our way out of Yellowstone! We enjoyed the staff and location of this property. They have a neat gift shop, horseback riding area and a Buffalo Bill museum! I would say it’s a must stay.

We stayed at the Pahaska Tepee resort when we visited Yellowstone National Park in July. The place is less than 2 miles from the East entrance of the park and hence very convenient. We were able to take trips round the park and we’re back in the cabin by evening. The cabins itself were cozy and cute - surrounded by nature - forests and mountains. There is a restaurant attached to the property - the food over there was good as well. Along with the restaurant, there is a grocery place as well as a gift shop. Overall it was a good experience staying at Pahaska Tepee and would definitely recommend it.

Very convenient to Yellowstone. Basic room. No wifi or television in the room. Could have used more lighting in the room. Clean. Staff is very helpful and hard working. Meals are good. Bar is good. No other restaurants or bars close by. Horse back riding is available. Saw deer on the property. Site of Buffalo Bill’s hunting lodge.

The property has lots of “western charm”, and it is certainly convenient, being very close to Yellowstone NP’s east entrance. The room was small but very clean. A bit overpriced for a small room with no a/c, Internet or TV, however. Staff was very nice, and the restaurant is excellent.

Close to Yellowstone (2 mi from East Entrance), staff friendly enough, but boy oh boy do they need to update some things. First, there was a mouse in our room - gross - and we never had any food in there. The only 'food' was the sugar and coffee they left so we threw that out of the room immediately. Second, do not expect privacy. The curtains do not even cover the windows. That is ridiculous. The curtains are also not blackout, which isn't a killer, but come on, at least have them cover the entire window at a minimum. Third, the wifi absolutely does not work anywhere on property. If you are planning to enjoy Yellowstone during the day and work or stream at night, you will not be able to do that so either bring a Starlink or stay elsewhere. They should not say they offer wifi at all in my opinion. My daughter had schoolwork she needed to do for college and could not because of their deceptive claim of wifi. I was so disappointed in the entire stay because of these things and I will never return to this hotel. I highly recommend any other property east of Yellowstone other than this one.

We had cabin 25 and it was full of mice running around at night and kept us up all night. One mouse ran across our pillows while we were in bed. I could see mice running all over our luggage. Staff is friendly and the restaurant is good. Sans mice and I would have a very positive rating.

Very small space but clean & cozy. Small bathroom & bed, small desk & that’s it. No amenities. No tv or WiFi. You have to go to the main lodge & use the signal there which was weak at best. Good restaurant but pricy. Staff very nice. Only about 3 miles from the east entrance of Yellowstone. The views amazing & wildlife right outside your door. I thought the price was high for what we got.

One step above a tent. Rooms were super small can’t turn around in them. But clean beds soft. Pillows not great, no facial tissue, microwave fridge or blow dryer. So be prepared. Restaurant is ok. No WiFi in the room or tv. Lots of wildlife. We did not have working heat in the room. Supposed to stay 2 nights but since the heat was broken they refunded my money. So that was good. Also get gas either before you go or before you leave Yellowstone.

The wood walls had dust on them . The mop boards were dirty. Centipedes in the bathroom. Windows do not lock. Windows didn’t lock. Felt unsafe. The light switch for the door light is outside. ( odd). Allergies ran ramps from the dusted/dirty room. Overpriced for no tv, internet, dirty, no microwave, limited desk people. I wasn’t camping nor am I a camper . I would not recommend this very out dated place.

I loved the staff and food at the restaurant. Check in lady also wonderful. Rented a one room cabin with queen bed and bathroom. Bed was comfortable and cabin was spotless. We stayed one night the 3rd week In May. They had a snow the week before. There wasn’t a working air conditioner and the cabin was small and air stagnant and warm. The windows didn’t come up so there was no way to get fresh air. Had to open and close door couple times at night to bring in cool air.

I woke up with spider crawling on my head ready. Reported to 2 managers. They claim they cleaned it but nothing was cleaned behind the back rest. Poor manager service. Never apologized for it. The pictures on Expedia are nothing compared to rooms. Rooms are filthy and small. Expedia should stop promoting this place.

The property is just outside of the east entrance to Yellowstone national park. They have a bar, restaurant and gift shop that was nice. The cabins themselves don’t have any ac and there is no internet connection. There are 2-4 cabins connected together on one building and we could definitely hear our neighbors in the next cabin over. It was an ok experience

The closest property I could find to the entrance of Yellowstone, this has the added benefit of historic significance--built on the property around Buffalo Bill Cody's hunting lodge. They warned us to watch carefully for large wildlife as we exit the cabin in the morning and we did have a bison grazing not far from the front door on our second morning. The only drawback I noticed was a lack of A/C so nights were warm and stuffy as we didn't want to open windows and potentially invite any bears in.

The property is very near the east entrance to Yellowstone, which is a positive. The lack of WiFi could be considered charming, but I wish it was more clear that you aren't likely to get either cell service or wifi. The room was too hot to sleep in. I can see not having AC in this area, but a simple box fan would have made a world of difference. Beds and pillows were substandard.

The property itself was beautiful, but the check-in process left a lot to be desired. We called a week in advance to confirm that we’d be arriving after hours and were told there would be a self check-in process — but no details were provided beyond that. When we arrived, there was no signage indicating where the registration or check-in area was, which made it really confusing. We ended up driving all around the property trying to figure it out. Thankfully, we happened to catch a bartender locking up and were able to ask for help — otherwise, we would have had no idea where to go or how to get in. It would have made a big difference if we had received more clear instructions in advance or if there had been proper signage on-site. The stay itself was fine, but the lack of communication and organization during check-in definitely started the experience off on a frustrating note. The stay was all we needed - bed and bathroom. Our toilet didn’t flush though. Breakfast and service was great.

We loved the cute cabins and the atmosphere . The restaurant was good but the no air conditioning was rough …. We had a cabin with 3 different entrances and three different units . All In one building . This set up was ok until a family checked in at 9:30pm and sounded like a herd of elephants ! Loud and running up and down the stairs!! This went on until 12:20 am . I went out once and asked them to be quiet and so did my husband . Th other neighbor asked as well . All of us were very nice and respectful … that did nothing for the noise . After 9pm there is no security or manager on site to help with noise control or problems . The last straw was in the morning at 8am when the whole building had the smoke alarms go off ! Kinda comical at this point . Probably the worst night we had 😀😀 I did talk to the manager and there was nothing that could be done . Not really even a sorry ! Side. It’s - we loved Yellowstone Side bit e

Great location for Yellowstone, Great gift shop & Restaurant/Bar. All employees were friendly and worked hard. Stayed in a 4 way, Neighbors were quiet and parking was no issue. (Could still hear them but all muffled and fine). No internet for us here w/AT&T but Wifi available in front building. No longer gasoline/grocer here.

Not the most horrible place but will not return. Pros : •Pet friendly w/ extra fee based on size of dog •Less than 10 minutes from the East Entrance to Yellowstone Park. •Beautiful area with fishing. •Really good food and restaurant staff. Cons: •Just a heads up about there being NO service and the wifi is only for the main lodge (check in, store, and diner) and it’s super slow so don’t expect to be able to get any work done if needed. •The back cabins is sharing a single room in a cabin sharing with 4-5 more units and/or around 10 more people. •The walls are so thin that you can hear any of your neighbors snoring or sneezing. •Windows do not open - and the heater doesn’t work properly. We turned it down and our room was still super hot. The wooden bed frame was pushed up again the baseboard heaters and headboard would get warm. •Curtains do not work so expect light streaming in at sunrise. •There was a mouse trap in the closet. •Housekeeping didn’t come once while there for 5 days. •One ply toilet paper •Breakfast is not included (you have to pay) •Extremely small bedrooms with two queens and bathroom barely fit one person •Expensive for not a great experience

We enjoyed the service and staff. Everyone was very pleasant and attentive to everyone's needs. The staff seem like family to each other and is expressed that way to how they care for their guests.

No wifi, no tv, no fridge, no coffee pot, no microwave. No where near Cody Wyoming. Refused refund when asked. Yelled at us for asking for a refund and followed us around after. Overpriced for what you get, felt unsafe left the next day. Mice were in the cabins. Expedia couldn’t refund us even though we didn’t stay the night because of there policy. Would recommend going somewhere else.

We LOVED our stay and the Tepee Resort. The staff was incredible and friendly. Sam the host in the dining area was always smiling and makes great latte's. Ryan the server in the dining room was fast, friendly and had amazing recommendations. The Hot Cocoa was to die for, the chicken marsala was incredible and the huckleberry lemonade is an adult beverage worth trying. This was our favorite place to stay!

This is a great place to stay if you’re going into the East Gate of Yellowstone Park! It’s less than a 5 minute drive! Beds are comfortable in the rustic cabin! Restaurant is very good!

The Teepee was a clean, comfortable stay at the east entrance to Yellowstone near the scenic city of Cody, Wy. Personable staff. Wildlife can be seen from here. Located at the foothills of YNP. Enjoyed our stay.

We stayed at the Pahaska Tepee resort when we visited Yellowstone National Park in July. The place is less than 2 miles from the East entrance of the park and hence very convenient. We were able to take trips round the park and we’re back in the cabin by evening. The cabins itself were cozy and cute - surrounded by nature - forests and mountains. There is a restaurant attached to the property - the food over there was good as well. Along with the restaurant, there is a grocery place as well as a gift shop. Overall it was a good experience staying at Pahaska Tepee and would definitely recommend it.

You will not get any phone service at all while you are on property. It will take you about 50-55 minutes to get to Cody. If you travel about 25-30 minutes down the road, you will get cell service. All the staff I met was very nice.

Dining
The on‑site restaurant and bar receive frequent praise for tasty meals and drinks, especially breakfast and homestyle dishes. A few note occasional closures, slow or subpar items, and prices that can feel high.

The resort was pretty comfortable to stay in, the historical aspect to it was particularly interesting. Only two things to improve- one is that there was no hair dryer in the bathroom. The other was that the restaurant closed to the guests on Saturday night with no warning. It was apparently for a Lions' club dinner. This would normally not be a problem, but there was nowhere else to get dinner there. I would also like to say that the staff were very nice.

Convenience to Yellowstone was great. The room smelled a little musty and the sheets did not fit the bed properly and I had to keep putting them back on. There were only 2 small pillows for the bed and I had to get my head rest pillow from the car for comfort. The restaurant was excellent with good waiter and staff. I was ok with no TV but they should look into some sort of wifi service for the prices you pay to stay there. Gift shop has pretty much everything you could want for souvenirs.

This property is exactly what you would expect, an adequate place to stay convenient to the East Yellowstone entrance. The wifi is basically non-existent, the cabin rooms are small, the furniture is old. However, the restaurant was pretty good and the staff were all amazing. I would recommended this place as long as you understand what you are paying for - an acceptable place to sleep convenient to your trip itinerary.

We stayed in a cabin in the back and loved it! Real log cabin with Cowboy decor was great. We enjoyed sitting outside on some chairs they had provided. The Restaurant had excellent breakfast and supper! They also have a bar next to the restaurant.

So this is an older property, but it is clean and quiet and has character. The food was good and the staff was extremely helpful. I left something behind and they helped arrange for its return. Everyone I encountered was friendly as well. The main advantage of this property is its proximity to Yellowstone. It is on the east side, but that was actually an advantage as it is much quieter over there. I was also closer to bear territory. You are going to have to deal with distance and traffic no matter what in Yellowstone so why not stay someplace cheaper and quieter. I highly recommend and I will stay there again.

The cottages were cozy for our family traveling through Yellowstone. Pros: Clear, cottage vibes, good restaurant, cool gift shop, wildlife (we saw deer and a bear on the mountains) Cons: Wifi does not reach the rooms that are a bit far from the lobby.
