Our family had such an amazing time here! It’s in the most beautiful location with mountains all around. Cody is only thirty minutes away and had everything we needed. We went to the rodeo and loved it. This is definitely a place we will visit again!

The house was very nice, and the scenery was great. Only problem was all the windows were dirty. I would set inside to look outside,and have my cup of coffee in the morning.It was chilly, and windy.Other than that it was a great place to stay.

Amazing views, beautiful house

I brought my children to see Yellowstone and the house was perfect! Just the right amount of driving from the park and the scenery on every side of the house was amazing! It was so nice to park in the garage too. Wish we could have had more time, we will definitely recommend AJ's Outpost to others traveling that way.

Mostly a Toast for AJ's Outpost

AJ's outpost was a wonderful stay and we would go back, with some caveats. On the upside, the area around Wapiti is beautiful and location is nice with Yellowstone and Cody nearby and excellent fishing on the Shoshone river and Buffalo Bill Reservoir. The place is big, nice, comfortable. On the downside, the place mislabeled a few major things and lacks a number of basic amenities. The biggest by far is there is NO A/C in the master bedroom. Also, we finally figured out the A/C was programmed to revert back to 78 degrees every night at 9:30. It took us a while to figure that one out and fix it. It was in the high 90s. This was the most serious issue and made sleeping uncomfortable. There was no DVD player or video library as listed. We ended up buying one. Very few kitchen supplies. This looks like a fairly new listing and they need to add some odds and ends. Despite this, the management company was apologetic and very helpful. The first day they turned up with hair dryers, not our request, and the next day turned up with frying pans, our request. The grill worked great. There was a big garage for use, big yard, rocking chairs. I would come back here, but not in summer heat since the master bedroom was basically unusable for sleeping. Fix the A/C and add a few basics and this place is great.

We loved our stay and the cabin was exactly like the pictures. Very comfortable and beautiful mountains views and in the kitchen it was equipped with mostly all your needs . And there was a Walmart 30 minutes away that was great to buy our needs. Definitely, I will recommend the place.
