My wife and I stayed here in Sep. of 2010 and thoroughly enjoyed the accomodations. It is conveniently located adjacent to Trail Town also, which is well worth seing if you are at all interested in old West history. More

We visited in the Autumn. We called ahead for a king sized bed room with refrig and microwave. Facility seemed to have lost that request and we ended up in a huge Queen bed room with no amenities. The TV was almost mounted on the ceiling, no refrig, microwave, dressers, closets, etc. Place was clean enough. Most rooms were filled... More

En route from Yellowstone to the Bighorn Mountains in Sept we stayed one night at Big Bear. Our host was charming and friendly and put us on the top deck of the new build block, completed four months. The room had a cabin feel, but was spacious with TV microwave and fridge, but ladies, be aware, no hairdryer. The bed... More

Bill and Jodie (owners) were very accomadating and helpful. I like when you don't feel weird when having to ask questions or favors. They made us feel welcome and appreciated our stay. The rooms were very comfortable if you don't like all the "extra" stuff. There are no microwaves, hairdryers, refridgerators or anything like that, but we like it that... More

After camping in Yellowstone for a few days this was a good stop to do some laundry and unwind by the pool. Big clean rooms, lovely pool and large wooden chairs to sit outside and relax in. Good price for the time of year also. More

I wish we'd still had little kids to enjoy the big bear out front and the playground on the premises. The owners of this motel really make guests feel welcome. They accept pets and the rooms are clean with microwaves and fridges in some of them. They also have wifi available to those who wish to use it. This is... More

We were pleasantly surprised to have booked this lodge, sight unseen, up the road from downtown Cody (and the Buffalo Bill museum) and at the top of the Shoshone River ravine. Great feel, rooms like new, friendly bikers, families, and llamas (really!). I don't understand any negative reviews; the owners were friendly and helpful and the rate just right. Fortune... More

We spent two nights here in a room that was larger and more comfortable than we expected it to be. It was clean and well-equipped. The owners and staff are friendly and helpful. Their rates are very competitive with competing motels in Cody. Ask for room 217, the second floor corner room that overlooks corral and stables, and has a... More

We spent 3 days in Cody and selected the Big Bear based on other reviews. So glad we did. This is a privately owned motel and the owners are very nice and friendly. They gave us tips on things to do and recommended the local diner across the road to eat breakfast. "Our Place" has great home cooking and wonderful,... More

The motel is just on the outside of the small town but is still next to restaurants and because the gown is so small you can take about a 20-30 minute walk into the centre. The room was a nice size and the beds comfy, the couple who run big bear where friendly and helpful. We took a private tour... More
