Awesome place to stay. Fun & relaxing! Breathe taking views. Our family of four had been on the road for six days traveling, visiting friends & family throughout Utah & Montana and taking the long way to Yellowstone. We had no reservations anywhere. We just drove until we needed to stop. Drove into Cooke City not knowing where we're going... More

Stayed at the high country the other night and it was great! The staff was very friendly and helpful with all our questions about the area. Our room was very clean and comfortable in such a beautiful area.

The owner was really friendly, and we had a lot of fun hanging out by the teepee. Room was comfortable, hot tub was great, and as I said, people were really friendly. Its not the fanciest place around, but it was exactly what we were looking for.

First of all Cooke city is located in a spectacular setting, and is the perfect place to explore the Lamar valley and Northeast of Yellowstone. We stayed at the High Country one night in late May (low season). Benji (owner or staff?) was a really nice guy, very laidback and easy going. We got upgraded to even better rooms, very... More

We travel to Cooke City a few weekends in the winter/spring to do some skiing, and this is the only place we stay. Lounging in the outside hot tub, looking up at Republic Peak, Town Hill, and the Fin after a long ski tour is my little slice of heaven. We have stayed in a refinished room and one of... More

Hey, We have no intention of closing next winter, so no worries. Benji does rock and we are sorry he won't be there anymore, but has assured us he will be popping in from time to time to help out. My husband and I will be taking the helm. I am glad that you like the Motel because we love... More

I've been travelling all over Montana since coming into retirement and nothing beats hitting the open road with very little set plans. This mentality settled me right into Cooke City for the first time years ago during one of my short trips to see the Beartooths. I decided to try out the High Country, I think I'm just predisposed to... More

I traveled through yellowstone this past weekend and had the pleasure of staying here. I did a little poking around in the city before settling on the high country. What sold me was how helpful and courteous the staff was. They reassured me that if i needed anything they would provide it to me. They also suggested some local spots... More

My wife and daughter and I went here for Labor day weekend. They have recently added a teepee and we got to experience a fire in the teepee with the new owners. My daughter absolutely loved it. The location is the best in Cooke, with unobstructed views of Mt. Republic and Woody. The creek is right out back and though... More

Unexpectedly stayed in Cooke City, so reservations were made with little options to research. Was told it was a 2 room cabin (2 couples traveling) and it turns out the second room was a bathroom. Room was clean but very basic. Bathroom was leaking and shower head only worked when angled certain ways.
