Located just steps from the Jim Mountain Trailhead and about 30 minutes from Cody, Wyoming, this private retreat offers the perfect setting for large families or groups seeking both adventure and relaxation near Yellowstone National Park. Surrounded by wide-open Wyoming landscapes and abundant wildlife, the home sits at the top the road for exceptional privacy, panoramic scenery, and unforgettable sunrises and sunsets. Guests can relax on the expansive deck, enjoy outdoor meals from the gas grill, or unwind in the seasonal hot tub while taking in the million-dollar mountain views.
The upper level of this beautiful log home features a welcoming great room with large windows that frame the stunning landscape. The open-concept living space includes a comfortable living room with television, a full kitchen equipped for group meals, and a dining area perfect for gathering after a day exploring Yellowstone or the surrounding wilderness. Two bedrooms are located on this level, including the primary bedroom suite with a king bed, television, and private bathroom with a walk-in tile shower. The second bedroom also offers a king bed and beautiful mountain. A full hallway bathroom with tub and shower combination and a convenient laundry room complete the upper floor.
The lower level provides additional space with three more bedrooms and comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to twelve guests. One bedroom features a king bed, attached bathroom, private coffee station. Another bedroom offers two full beds, while the adjoining bedroom includes a queen bed, twin bed, and attached bathroom. With five bedrooms, four bathrooms, modern amenities, pet friendly space, Jim Mountain Retreat is an ideal basecamp for Yellowstone adventures, hiking, wildlife viewing, and exploring the scenic beauty of the Cody and Wapiti Valley area.

Beautiful home with outstanding views in all directions. Conveniently located to downtown Cody and the east entrance to Yellowstone National Park. We saw 50+ elk come off the mountains and settle on the low lying area along the main road to Cody / Yellowstone. Highly recommend.

Wonderful House and Location
The home perfectly accommodated me and five 75-80 year old men. Lots of room, and great setting. The property is over two miles off pavement, so I would strongly recommend a four wheel drive vehicle.

Great stay!
This place worked out perfect for our trip to Yellowstone. Was conveniently located to the eastern entrance and the drive there was beautiful. The cabin is private, clean, and well stocked. We LOVED sitting on the patio in the evenings looking at the view. The kids really enjoyed the hot tub. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it!

Excellent Stay at Jim Mountain Retreat
Jim Mountain Retreat has been one of my absolute favorite vacation rentals. We traveled with six people, three of whom were 80+ years old. So, the ability to drive our van to the side sliding door, so that the 80-ers didn't have to navigate steps and we could unload the groceries and bags without steps or a lot of twists and turns was super helpful. The 80-ers stayed in the bedrooms on that level. And, I'm not kidding, my Mom and Dad got teary-eyed when we showed then the primary bedroom and bathroom that they would be staying in. The main living level was everything we expected from a Wyoming house (ie. lots of wood, plenty of animal heads, and absolutely breathtaking views). There was plenty of seating for everyone, without feeling like we were sitting on top of each other. And, the kitchen was mostly fully functional, although it lacked any empty cabinets for our groceries. The ground-level bedrooms were interesting. Let's say they went 1 of 3 in that space. The bedroom that had direct access to the outside patio was great; the bed was super comfortable. The en suite bathroom seemed as if it had been recently updated. And, even though it was a tight fit for two people to get ready, it was functional and super cute. The other bedrooms and bathroom on that level are in need of a big-time update, especially the bedroom without windows and the attached bathroom. Those spaces felt super dated, and the person that stayed and used that space felt really let down after seeing everyone else's bedrooms and bathrooms. The deeper we walked into that level the more dated it became. The outdoor space, the views, and the access to the Jim Mountain trailhead are the real winners at this property. And, the main living level of the house does everything possible to capture that splendor.

JIM MOUNTAIN RETREAT - AWESOME!
This home is nestled on the upper side of Jim Mountain. The views from the large living room windows of the valley and mountains were simply hypnotizing. The house was clean and had eveything you could possibly want. Located in Wapiti, its half way between Cody and Yellowstone Park - Perfect! I would certainly recommend Jim Mountain Retreat to use as a base camp for anyone wanting the Cody/Yellowstone experience.

The location was amazing and views were spectacular. Pictures did not do the house and view's justice. House was decorated perfectly and had enough space to accommodate all of us for our family reunion. I would highly recommend house and would definitely stay there again. It was absolutely perfect!

Excellent Vacation Rental
We really enjoyed our stay at the Jim Mountain Retreat. The house was very clean when we arrived. The location was beautiful, and the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. We loved walking to the trailhead at the end of the road and hiking that trail. We rent one to two vacation houses a year, and this was one of my favorites.
