Famous Bunkhouse outside Story, Wyoming | Ranch Estate Retreat with Private Pond, Piano Room, Massive Great Room & Concierge Services | Pets Welcome | Sleeps 10+ | House in Banner
3 Bedroom House in Banner
Summary:
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.

The Space:
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.

Guest Access:
You have full access to the entire property — every room, every outdoor space, the pond, the gazebo, the garage, and the grounds. There are no locked-off areas, no shared spaces with other guests. The Bunkhouse is yours for the entirety of your stay.
Check-in is self-guided using our smart lock system — your unique access code will be sent 24 hours before arrival. No waiting, no coordinating. You're on Wyoming time the moment you arrive.
The large detached garage is available for use — ideal for hunters, vehicles, or gear storage. Please reach out in advance if you have specific parking or storage needs and we'll make sure everything is ready.
The Neighborhood:
Story, Wyoming isn't a place you drive through — it's a place you find when you're looking for something real. Nestled in the foothills of the Big Horn Mountains, Story sits almost exactly halfway between Sheridan (30 min north) and Buffalo (30 min south) on Highway 193, giving you the best of both worlds: total seclusion on property, with two thriving Western towns within easy reach.
Sheridan, Wyoming — consistently ranked one of America's best small cities — offers exceptional dining, the iconic King's Saddlery, the WYO Theater, and a vibrant Main Street scene. Buffalo is your classic Wyoming cowboy town: the Occidental Hotel, the Bozeman Trail Steakhouse, and the gateway to Cloud Peak Wilderness.
The property itself sits in wide-open ranchland with a private pond and regular wildlife visits from deer, elk, and a chorus of songbirds. In the summer, the Big Horn Mountains beyond are dotted with wildflowers. In the fall, the aspens turn gold. In winter, the silence is something else entirely.
Nearby highlights:
Bighorn National Forest — hiking, fishing, hunting, camping
Cloud Peak Wilderness Area
Medicine Wheel National Historic Landmark (~1.5 hrs)
Tongue River Canyon
Story Fish Hatchery — walking distance
Fly fishing on Piney Creek and Clear Creek
World-class elk and deer hunting (October season)
Sheridan County Airport (30 min)
Getting Around:
A personal vehicle is the best way to explore the Story area — and you'll want one. The landscape begs to be driven. Story sits on Hwy 193, which connects seamlessly to I-90, making Sheridan and Buffalo both quick trips.
For those who prefer to arrive without wheels, Wyo Stays offers private airport transfers from Sheridan County Airport (SHR) or even the Billings Logan International Airport (BIL) for larger groups. We also offer Tesla rental for guests who want to explore Wyoming in style. Just send us a message when you book.
Sheridan County Airport (SHR): ~30 min
Buffalo, WY: ~30 min south on I-90
Sheridan, WY: ~30 min north on I-90
Billings, MT: ~1.5 hrs north
Casper, WY: ~2 hrs south
Interaction with Guests:
We believe hospitality means being available without being intrusive. Your privacy is the default — the property is yours from the moment you check in.
Our Wyo Stays team is available by message around the clock. Whether you need a restaurant recommendation, a last-minute grocery delivery, or want to arrange a private chef dinner, we're one message away. Most requests are responded to within an hour.
For guests who want a more hands-on concierge experience — adventure planning, celebration coordination, in-home chef services — just reach out when you book or message us anytime during your stay. We love making Wyoming memorable.
