Breakfast is well below standard. No area provided to sit down and eat breakfast. Had to take it back to room so took a couple trips up stairs to the room to eat. They used scented laundry soap and was very strong. My wife is allergic and bothered her a lot. If you’re checking in late you’ll need to phone to get in. Good luck if you’re like me and don’t have a US phone package. It’s not the place if you’re expecting a normal hotel/motel experience.

Nice quiet hotel. nothing too fancy. It did have a nice upstairs area with pool tables etc ans a nice seating area outside. The bar and grill is closed due to not enough staff.

The outside area of the lodge was not as clean as showing in the picture. The grill was closed due to not having any employees because it was harvest time. The shower was incredibly small, the water pressure in the shower was really low. For the price just to lay your head down on for the night was ok.

This was a very nice place to stay. The bar and grill was closed but they suggested a nice restaurant down the street and it was great food and atmosphere. The only down side was the room AC had been turned off. The weather was unusually warm and the AC was not able to cool room. It was a long night. I would definitely stay here again.

Old Fashioned Hospitality and Accomodations.
Quaint old fashion hotel with great customer service, wifi , game room with lounging area, comfortable beds. Unique old fashion Soda Fountain near by. This is away from the city in rural area which , you a more secure feeeling of security and safety. 3 eating estblishments plus a Convenience Store. No air for tires nearby. Would definitely stay here again.

Response from Management on 17 Jul,2022
Sarah, I am so sorry that your room was hot. If you had inquired at the front desk we would have been happy to help you adjust the air conditioner to cool off your room very nicely. The heat has been terrible recently. It was actually over 100 on the day you arrived which is very hot for our area. However, if the ac unit is set correctly they do a very good job of cooling the room. Again, I apologize that we were unable to help as we were unaware of the problem. Thank You, Management

If you would like to experience rural Wyoming, put Chugwater on your list. There isn’t much there (pop 212)which makes it so cool. Don’t leave until you have visited the Soda Fountain, the Stampede Saloon and Grill, and have tried the Chugwater Chili. The Buffalo Lodge is a throwback to earlier tourist travel. It’s small and clean with friendly owners.

GREAT Place and Town!!!
This is such a quaint little place to stay tucked away from the hustle and bustle and noise of Cheyenne Frontier Days but close enough to join in the fun!!! This little town has everything you need for your stay to be fun and comfortable! The beds are so comfortable! The staff is very accommodating!

I believe you have the wrong motel. My rooms have never been that price. I do not see any reservations that fit this description. The price of my rooms have always been lower than this price. Thank you.

Nothing Here
This hotel may be ok for the locals, but it is definitely substandard. The owner constantly pointed out that we got a good deal because we booked early. The first time I contacted her to confirm our stay, she said she wanted to cancel the booking (which Expedia did not allow) because she could get more money from longer staying clients. On two other occasions when I spoke with her, she continued to tell me how lucky we were to get the room at the price we booked, and that there was nowhere else to stay. It made me feel from the start that she is unreliable, and could just decide to cancel our reservations at any time, since she could get more money from someone else. The accommodations were definitely minimal. The best part of the stay was a barbecue the second night, for which we were charged a reasonable price. I would not recommend staying here, since you have better alternatives only 1/2 hour away North in Wheatland or South in Cheyenne.

Decent, kind of typical small town hotel. Quiet and out of the way, which I like. The Stampede Saloon was a cool little place with good food and live music. I probably spent too much of the night there, so I wasn't in the room long. The TV remote didn't work, but since I wasn't in the room long, I didn't bother to ask for new batteries (I got in late, left early; didn't want to wake anyone).. The condition of the room was fine... I downgraded it a bit because of the TV situation.

Good overnight stop, but not if you need brand new
Handy stop off the interstate, just far enough away so the road noise is not bothersome. Older style rooms (1960's ?) but kept clean. Great wi-fi strength. Decided to pass on this continental breakfast but the coffee was tasty.

Rude staff no where near country hospitality.
Reception can be compared to truck stop service. Room was similar to a ghetto motel. Price was more expensive than ski resort town in Colorado. Take the extra time and a find the closest town try their lodging.
