Setting

Some privacy

Sunlight Rangers Cabin is a spacious three-room log structure set in a grassy meadow along Sunlight Creek in Shoshone National Forest, roughly 40 miles northwest of Cody, Wyoming. The location attracts visitors for fly fishing for cutthroat, rainbow, and brook trout on Sunlight Creek, as well as hiking, mountain biking, and off-road riding on nearby motorized and non-motorized trails. The cabin sleeps up to eight people with two queen beds, two sets of bunk beds, a living room fireplace, a dining room, an indoor bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen with a stove, fridge, and microwave.

Getting there: From Cody, drive approximately 16 miles north on Highway 120, then take Chief Joseph Scenic Highway/Highway 296 west for 22 miles, up and over Dead Indian Pass and on to Sunlight. Sunlight Road/Forest Road 101 will be on your left just before you reach the Sunlight Bridge Overlook. Drive west on Sunlight Road for about 8 miles. The ranger station will be on your left. Upon pulling into the parking lot, you will find the cabin on your left on the east side of the station.
