Welcome to AO Ranch, a beautifully crafted, pet friendly mountain retreat set on 88 private acres. Built in 2021, this vacation home blends cabin character with modern comfort and unobstructed mountain views. Located about 35 minutes from the East Entrance of Yellowstone National Park, AO Ranch is the perfect basecamp for Yellowstone adventures, wildlife viewing, and exploring the Cody area. The home s striking exterior features natural rockwork, log beam accents, and a spacious patio designed to take full advantage of the surrounding landscape and wide-open Wyoming skies.
Inside, the home welcomes you with a bright open floor plan designed for gathering and relaxing. The dining area comfortably seats six, while the spacious kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and additional seating for three at the island. Large windows frame spectacular views of the mountains and lake, bringing the outdoors into the heart of the home. The living room is arranged to highlight those views while offering a cozy place to unwind beside the fireplace and a sleeper sofa for additional guests. The authentic lodge-style atmosphere blends seamlessly with modern amenities for a comfortable, unforgettable stay.
The primary suite features a king bed and a luxurious ensuite bathroom with double vanity, soaking tub with mountain views, and a beautiful tile walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms each offer queen beds and share a Jack and Jill bathroom with a tub and shower combination, making the layout ideal for families or small groups traveling together. A half bath is conveniently located off the hallway. Guests also have access to the attached garage with space for one vehicle. With comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to eight guests and a peaceful setting, AO Ranch offers the perfect blend of privacy, scenery, and convenience for your Yellowstone and Wyoming vacation.

Beautiful Home! Amazing View!
This home took our breath away from the moment we arrived. The view is spectacular any time of day – we even saw a rainbow over the lake and counted 32 elk on the side of the mountain (more than we saw in Yellowstone!). The spacious, pet-friendly home is equipped with all modern amenities, making our stay comfortable and relaxing. Mornings were spent on the porch watching the sunrise, and the peaceful setting made it hard to leave. The driveway has one switchback, but our minivan had no trouble making it up in June. Plus, there’s a fantastic restaurant just minutes away. Without a doubt, this is the best vacation home we’ve ever stayed at, and we can’t wait to come back!

Best stay
If the house was up for sale we would have purchased it we loved it so much. It’s about 15 minutes from town which is exactly what we wanted. All you will hear from the house is the birds chirping! House also comes fully stocked with everything which was a huge help!

Stunning!
The ranch and the surrounding property was absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. The decor and the amenities were perfect- did not want for anything. It was evident that a lot of thought and consideration went into making this home a comfortable and welcoming place. Highly recommend and would definitely return!

Loved it!!!
This was a beautiful vacation. The house and particularly the location r definitely on God's list of favorite places. Just thinking about the mountains takes my breath away. 2 40ish daughters and 3 teens went with me.when we got home teens revealed they thought it would b a boring trip, BUT they couldnt believe what a wonderful time we had. Loved it!!

Awesome cabin!
We absolutely loved our time in this cabin. The setting was even prettier than the pictures showed and the home was gorgeous and so clean and well stocked. It was a little further to the park than we had anticipated but very convenient for Cody activities.

The home was welcoming and beautiful with many amenities. It was obvious much thought and details went into prepping this home. This was our second visit to Cody and this is by far our favorite place to stay.

Amazing Stay!
Firstly, yes, the views are real! :)
We had a fantastic trip to the AO Ranch. Communication was excellent in the lead-up to our stay, check-in was easy, and we had a smooth experience. The ranch is fully equipped with everything you need. We would definitely stay here again. What a beautiful part of the country.
