During Your Visit

Our guest lodge is an authentic hand hewn log cabin designed by the world famous artist Olive Fell. It is blessed with spellbinding views in all directions.
The recently renovated lodge offers four ensuite guest rooms with additional sleeping options (alcove queen and twin, twin bunks, and fold out twin) in the loft area.
The great room offers a wood-burning fireplace with a variety of comfortable seating allowing you to take in the scenery while you enjoy conversation and relaxing times.
The well-equipped chef’s kitchen has a beautiful view of its own and is yours to enjoy!
High speed internet is available at Four Bear Ranch, but cellular service is very poor. By setting your phone to enable wifi calling, both calling and texting are possible. You may need to check with your provider to use this feature.

We suggest you plan menus before arriving and shop at a local Cody grocery store. The Cody Walmart SuperCenter is enroute to the ranch and has a great selection of items. They also offer online grocery ordering which you can schedule and pick up on your way out of town. The ranch is a 30 minute drive from Cody, so plan accordingly. For quick items, there is a small convenience store in Wapiti – 10 minutes down the mountain.
Pantry baking supplies, staples, and limited condiments are provided at the ranch. Feel free to contact us for an updated list of what is available for your use.
We will welcome your group with dinner the night of your arrival or if late arrival prevents that, a breakfast the next morning. Orientation to prepare you for best enjoying your stay will include a side by side and ATV trail tour of the ranch.
There are a couple of small restaurants in Wapiti that offer a quick meal. Ask your hosts about these. There are also several wonderful local restaurants in Cody that provide great food and classic western ambiance.
