Hundred-Year-Old Shell Valley Settlers Cabin!

Hundred-Year-Old Shell Valley Settlers Cabin!

10/10 Excellent
"A lovely cabin that feels rich with history. Our party of 50&60 year olds were very comfortable. We really wanted to know the history of this cabin though. We are on a road trip from Grand Teton to Badlands. This was a perfect location to get to Bighorn, and we discovered Red Gultch Dinosaur Tracks also.We loved the location, and the cabin itself. Just lovely!Everything we needed was here. Thank you to the owners. You have a lovely spot."

The Trapper Creek Guest House - Shell, Wy, at the foot of Big Horn Mountains.

The Trapper Creek Guest House - Shell, Wy, at the foot of Big Horn Mountains.

10/10 Excellent
"The Trapper Creek Guest House was an excellent stay. Accurate description - you will get exactly what you expect from the VRBO description. Melanie came out of the office to greet us as we were pulling into the driveway to check in, and Peter stopped to say hello as he drove by. Both could not have been nicer. The complimentary treat basket and wine were very much appreciated. If I could make just a few suggestions, it would be: a) allow the guests to park at the guest house rather than behind the caretaker’s house; b) have the gas grill clean and ready to use; and c) have ice in the ice trays. All minor details, but they go a long way for weary travelers. Loved the stay - very highly recommend - you won’t be disappointed!"

Rachael's Place — Mountain Views, Dayton WY

Rachael's Place — Mountain Views, Dayton WY

10/10 Excellent
"This was an amazing site. With beautiful views of the mountains - with deer, hawks, geese and more - it was so relaxing. The deck was the place to be early morning or evening. The rooms were comfortable and clean. We had a couple of communication mishaps due to later than expected check in information and our travel and cell coverage problems. I'd highly recommend Rachael's Place and would love to return."
