The area is beautiful and the abundance of wildlife made it so much better. It’s just outside of Cody, so you still have easy access to supplies when needed but is also close to the east entrance of Yellowstone. There’s lots of natural and historic sites that are great to see on your trip.

The owners and staff were so friendly and super accommodating!! The brisket was amazing!! My son loved his elk burger! The cabin was so homey! The views were absolutely stunning!! My only complaint would be that it’s not closer to my home so I could stay more often!!

We absolutely loved everything about the Lodge! It was Totally Magnificent! Would recommend to all our Family & Friends! We felt like we were part of the family. We experienced the best top notch hospitality compared to the 4 other nights spent outside each of Yellowstone Gates. Thanks so much for treating us so very kindly on our 40th Wedding Anniversary Trip. We love the owners, The Kyle's are very accommodating!

We loved the little cabin. It had a beautiful view. We saw wild horses nearby. There was a store nearby for drinks. We had the needed modern conveniences with the outdoors right outside the door. We were centrally located to all our activities including Yellowstone, rafting, food, horseback riding, etc…

Wapiti is just outside of the narrow canyon when exiting Yellowstone. It opens to a gorgeous wide valley with mountains on all sides. It’s quiet and 25 minutes west of Cody. We went in the off season so we found no restaurants or gas stations open. The drive to Cody was a beautiful easy drive by the reservoir and thru three tunnels. So pretty!!!

It is a beautiful drive from Wapiti into YNP, and there is wildlife to be seen along the way on the East entrance to the park. I, however, would not stay near that entrance again. I have issues with steep mountain passes with shear dropoffs. I got used to it after a couple of times, but always dreaded driving back out of the park to the hotel because of the road. Driving into the park is easy, as you are driving on the mountain side. It's just driving out over Sylvan Pass that was unpleasant for me. If that doesn't bother you, then it's a great location. The hotel said 30 minutes to the gate, but I never made it in less than about 45 before dawn.
