Shell Town Cabin- Classis Log Cabin, Large Fireplace, Base of the Bighorns Location

Welcome to Shell Town Cabin, a carefully restored historic log cabin in the heart of Shell, Wyoming and at the base of the Bighorn Mountains. Set along the town's main street, this cozy cabin puts you within easy reach of some of the area's best outdoor recreation, including hiking, fishing, wildlife viewing, and scenic drives into the mountains. With the Shell Bar and the historic Old Shell Store just a few steps away, you'll also have a taste of small-town Wyoming right outside your door.
Inside, the cabin blends historic character with the comforts of a modern getaway. Settle into the inviting living room with its gas fireplace and antler chandelier, gather around the dining table for four, or prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen. Mini-split units for heat and air provide year-round comfort, while a washer and dryer add convenience for your stay. Both bedrooms are located downstairs and feature egress windows. One bedroom has a queen bed, built-in vanity, and private half bathroom, while the second bedroom has two twin beds. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combination is located on the main level.
Step outside to enjoy the beautiful outdoor space with a large lawn, front sitting area and a spacious back porch featuring additional seating and a picnic table. A small stream flows between the cabin and the historic Old Shell Store, adding to the peaceful setting and unique character of this property. When you're ready to explore, head into the Bighorn Mountains for a day of adventure, then return to the cabin for a quiet evening by the fire—or walk across the street to the Shell Bar for food, drinks, and games. Shell Town Cabin is a charming home base for experiencing the mountains, history, and laid-back character of Wyoming.

Quiet Retreat

A beautifully restored cabin that is very comfortable and conveniently located adjacent to the Bighorn Mountains. Lovely outdoor spaces add to the charm of this cabin and our group of hikers spent many evenings relaxing on the back deck. The cabin is well appointed and offers comfortable beds and linens and was very clean. The stairs to the basement bedrooms are steep and quite small, so may be challenging for some people but we would not hesitate to rent this cabin again!

Shell Cabin Stay

Our stay at the Shell cabin was truly fantastic. The cabin was well represented, rustic with a steep staircase. The beds, furnishings and appliances were nice and more that acceptable. The decor and everything provided was incredible. We will definitely try to stay there again. I do not recommend defecating in the lower bathroom. The macerator pump causes a nasty smell in the upper level, but that is the absolutely on vice.

Hunting Getaway

Overall the stay was great. Great amenities. Hot water heater went out and was fixed the same day. The only cons were posted in previous reviews and we understood. Steps are extremely narrow - 5.5" wide with no railing. Both bedrooms downstairs with bathroom in one of the bedrooms so you are walking in others or taking steep stairs. Bathrooms do have a sewer smell.

Wonderful cabin but challenging stairs

The place is very nice with recently remodeled downstairs bedrooms. The only negative was that there is a powder room bath in the bedroom with the queen for overnight use but the other two twin bedroom had no bathroom. So those staying in the two twin room had to either bother those in the queen bedroom or traverse up the very narrow and steep stairs to use the full bath on the main floor. It wasn't an issue for us in general but renters should be aware of that and the stairs leading down to the bedrooms are very steep. A sturdy railing would be very helpful.

Very cool place. Immaculately clean with everything we needed. Quirky layout made for a memorable stay. All as described. Even had turkeys parading through the backyard. Great place!
