Great location. Home made breakfast. Hosts were very friendly and accommodating. More like a B & B than a hotel/ motel. Will be our place to stay in Ten Sleep.

The place is absolutely spotless and beautiful. They have restored this motel to a very homey place to stay. The couple lives on site and they have vegetables and fresh herbs growing. The breakfast is homemade. Homemade scones, jelly, bread. This morning, we had delicious scrambled eggs And delicious ham. Restaurants are very walkable for small as this town is we really enjoyed our stay

What an amazing place!! The rooms are freshly remodeled with higher end finishes. This is not your average motel!! The owners are supper nice, and it almost had a bed and breakfast vibe. They made all the guests a homemade breakfast with homemade breads, jams, muffins, etc. They have a nice outdoor sitting area as well. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay.

The hotel is a great place to stay. Breakfast was also very good, home cooked. The owners had pleasant conversation with all the guests. The only consideration i would make is to sweep the cement slab so it is easier to park motorcycles. Highly recommend staying there!!!!

Loved this property!

This place is absolutely wonderful! Kenny & Christa were very friendly & super welcoming. Our family stayed there for a wedding at a nearby town and they treated us all very well. They have done a wonderful job tending to this charming property! The homemade breakfasts they made for all of us was outstanding. The eggs were super tasty but the homemade baked goods were the star of the meal. If we ever make it back to that area of WY this will be where we stay without a doubt.

The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The bathroom had a modern renovation. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was cooked fresh on-site and tasted much better than breakfast at most larger chain hotels. Good central location. We would stay there again.

We are traveling across the country and The Carter Inn is the best place we've stayed! The owners provide many lovely details that made our stay extra special, from homemade cookies to little treats in our room, to a delicious breakfast with multiple kinds of fresh baked bread, fruit, sausage, and eggs made to order. All of that and the room was extra clean and comfortable. 10/10!
