The location is between Cody Wyoming and Yellowstone Park. It's a 15-20 mile drive to the park and driving through mountains. From our porch we've seen mule deer and turkey and can hear elk bugling. It's sparsely populated, which I like, but not too far from the town of Cody, which is well developed town with everything one needs for comfort. It's a good balance between nature and not getting too far from civilization. The 'cabin/house' is clean and equipped with everything you'll need.
