Bunkhouse — Ranch Estate, Private Pond, Story WY

Some places you stay. Others stay with you.

Tucked into the foothills of the Big Horn Mountains in Story, Wyoming — halfway between Sheridan and Buffalo on a sweeping private estate — The Bunkhouse is exactly what its name promises: a gathering place.

The kind where families spread out without stepping on each other, where friends pour coffee around a granite island at 7am and reconvene around a stone fireplace at midnight.

You'll walk in through a piano room dressed in warm oak and Wyoming art, and immediately feel the soul of a home that was built to be lived in. The chef's kitchen opens to a chandelier-lit dining room with a hand-carved live-edge table, which pours into the great room — soaring tongue-and-groove ceilings, walls of windows framing the property's private pond and resident wildlife, a massive stone fireplace, and your own kitchenette bar for late-night pours.

Outside, the property breathes. A gazebo. A pond. Towering cottonwoods. A huge yard built for big groups, hunters, families, and anyone who just needs to hear silence for a few days.

The Bunkhouse sleeps 10+ comfortably across multiple rooms, with flexible overflow space. A summer-season one-bedroom cabin on premises is available for larger groups — just ask.

Supported by Wyoming's boutique hospitality team — this property comes with access to concierge services including private chefs, airport transfers, Tesla rental, adventure planning, and more.

Rediscover hospitality. Book your stay and message us with any requests.

The Bunkhouse is the rare vacation home that genuinely accommodates everyone — without making anyone feel like an afterthought. Every room has been furnished with intention, every corner tells a story rooted in Wyoming. Walk through the front door and you're in a music room with a classic upright piano, local Western art, and a cowhide rug underfoot. The tone is set immediately: this isn't a short-term rental. This is an experience.
