About this property

Riverside Cowboy Cabin

It is comfortable and peaceful in the cabin, whether you sit in front of the wood stove on a chilly evening or enjoy the summer breeze on the deck looking out over the Wind River. Guests come here to fish, to write, to take a break from the busy-ness of a busy civilization, to let their thoughts and feelings coalesce. There is plenty of room for kids to swing on a tire swing out front and cast for their first fish. Horseback rides and waterfall hikes are right down the road. We are informal here in Dubois. The excitement comes from the kids’ rodeo as well as from the deer, geese and bunnies in the yard.
The cabin has all of the amenities-a fully stocked kitchen for cooking, with seasonings, coffee, dishes, pots & pans. The laundry room has detergent. The fire pit has wood. And the grill has charcoal & lighter fluid. There are even skewers for s’mores.
Here is the layout of the cabin: a master bedroom with queen bed and an en-suite bathroom with shower. An IKEA full sofa/bed in the kitchen, topped with an additional mattress when needed. A queen sofa/bed in the TV room as well. Please note that there is only 1 bathroom and the entrance is through the bedroom.
We try to stick to 100% cotton linens and fragrance-free chemicals in cleaning. The scent of the pine trees and sage are lovely enough.
Of course, there is Yellowstone for day trips. As well as the glitzy town of Jackson for its restaurants and shopping. Each are roughly an hour and 45 minutes from the cabin. But there is so much more right around here.
We have lots and lots of repeat guests. A number of them come a few times and then decide to make Dubois their home. In fact, that is exactly what your hosts did those many years ago.

Cozy cabin with a great view!
The cabin was clean and cozy with all the amenities you need. The wood burning stove was wonderful on a cold May night! Situated in a quiet spot with a great view!

The cabin was advertised as old but it was a little rougher than we had thought it would be.
The setting was pretty but not nearly as private as we thought. A garage apartment of some kind was right behind the cabin and there was some noise and doors shutting late into the night.

Amazing property and hosts!
Myself, my sister and brother had not vacationed together in 40 years. We booked a week with Eleanor and Andy and had the trip of a lifetime. Dubois is such a beautiful centrally located area and the little town has everything you need if you want to be a little farther from the touristy and crowded areas. The cabin was perfect...we did rode trips everyday to all the places we wanted to see, and then came home to the cozy cabin. Even fished most days for a bit right behind the cabin. The hosts made it the best trip ever. We will be back next year. Cannot rate highly enough. I would have loved to spend one more week!!!

June 2022 Anniversary Trip
We loved our stay in the cabin. It was lovely to sit on the deck and hear the Wind River and watch the deer and geese right at your doorstep. The property is beautiful, the cabin was so quaint, and has everything you could possibly need. It was great meeting Eleanor and Andy. They were helpful with information, and very quick to respond, and we enjoyed the quiet little town of Dubois as a base camp for our trips back and forth to the Tetons. We can't wait to return some day!

A special time
Great place to stay! Quiet, cozy and calm was the perfect get away from our busy lives. Easy to get ahold of The Gipsons. We will be coming back!

About the host

Hosted by owner/property owner

Host profile image
We love our town,with its petroglyphs, trout fishing, hiking and proximity to Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks.

Why they chose this property

We have the quiet of the river at night, but are close to the most excellent pie at the Cowboy Cafe.

What makes this property unique

Catch-and-release fishing in the front yard when the snow melt is through, only 2 miles from the festivities of downtown Dubois.
