200 dollars to sleep in a bed for 4 hours on a long roadtrip I didn’t expect there to be so many earwigs/silverfish bugs around the shower and sink area. Beds super springy but still clean and comfy enough. Front desk was extremely friendly though and they have a pet friendly room available for those that need it. Some bug spray and it could easily be a 4 or 5 star review.

I stayed in The Buffalo Lodge on my way from MT to CO. Anyone with allergies or asthma should NOT stay here. While quaint, this place has not been updated for at least 30 years. I arrived at 10:10p, picked up the phone in the “lobby” as instructed and let it ring for 3 mins. No one answered or came to check me in. I called the hotel phone number from my cell and still no answer. After 15 mins, a lady in her bathrobe showed up, was apologetic, and checked me in. Outdated decor doesn’t bother me, BUT the room was stuffy when I entered, the AC unit was filthy, filled with dust and insects & did not blow out cool air. I was hot all night. The room was very dusty; microwave had not been cleaned; bed had cheap, polyester sheets and bedding with an uncomfortable mattress; bathroom had chipped vinyl flooring, permanent hard water stain in the tub, and old caulking. Towels clean, water was hot with good pressure. Overall, everything in this place is dated and very, very worn. This is a $50 a night hotel. I paid $117. The hotel is located in a small, rural, agricultural community—so it’s unrealistic to expect many amenities. The people are lovely—quite friendly. However, I would not stay here again and do not recommend, especially for the price.

Comfortable beds, clean rooms
The lodge is dated. But the beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The breakfast was honey buns, yogurt, and cereal. It could have been better, since there was no other breakfast option in town. Otherwise I would stay again

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.

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.

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.
