Property in Buffalo, Wyoming

There is a footbridge over Clear Creek that separates the road from where you are going. On the other side of it, tucked into the cottonwoods with the Bighorn Mountains stretching across the entire horizon, is a hand-built log cabin that has been standing since the land decided it belonged there.

This is not a vacation rental that looks like a cabin. This is a cabin — massive river-rock fireplace climbing two stories through the center of the house, log beam ceilings you can reach up and touch, polished concrete floors that hold the cold of the creek in summer and the warmth of the heater in winter, and windows so wide the mountains feel like they are sitting at your dining table.

Clear Creek Crossing sleeps up to 14 guests across two structures: the main cabin (accessed via the footbridge) sleeps 8 with a king bedroom, a queen-and-loft bedroom, a queen sleeper sofa, and two full bathrooms. The separate bunkhouse apartment above the shop sleeps 6 with a queen bed, four twins, a full bathroom, kitchenette, and its own balcony.

The layout makes this property ideal for family reunions, multi-generational trips, friend groups, hunting parties, and anyone who wants to be together around a fire but not on top of each other at bedtime.

Behind the cabin, the land opens directly into BLM public walk-in territory — thousands of acres of Wyoming rangeland where you can hike, glass for wildlife, or simply stand in the kind of silence that makes you realize how loud your normal life has been.

Clear Creek itself is fishable — bring your rod, buy a Wyoming license, and cast for trout from your front yard.

And the wildlife. This is not a “you might see wildlife” situation. A rock chuck has taken up permanent residence near the porch. Deer walk through the yard like they own the place (they were here first). Turkeys cross the footbridge — apparently, they also think it is a portal. And bald eagles circle overhead regularly enough that you will stop pointing them out by day two.

This is a cabin for people who want the real Wyoming. Not a resort version of it. Not a sanitized, magazine-styled version of it. The real thing — log walls, stone fireplace, mountain views, creek water, open sky, and the kind of quiet that rewires your brain.

This is a description you'll want to read in full.

You are going to hear the creek before you see the cabin. That is by design — or maybe by Wyoming’s design. Either way, it is the first sign that you have arrived somewhere different.
Cross the footbridge over Clear Creek and walk into a two-story hand-built log cabin anchored by a massive river-rock fireplace that climbs from the concrete floor through the center of the house and out through the vaulted ceiling.

The fireplace is original to the cabin and purely decorative now — a dedicated electric fireplace insert in the living room handles the actual warmth, and it does a beautiful job of it. But the stone hearth remains the soul of the room: a two-story monument to the kind of craftsmanship that nobody builds anymore.

The living room is the heart of everything downstairs. Polished concrete floors, leather seating, Southwestern textiles, and picture windows that frame the Bighorn Mountains so perfectly you will think someone hung a painting. A smart TV is set up for evenings when the sky is not cooperating, and a queen sleeper sofa means the living room can convert to additional sleeping space when your group fills the house.

Outdoor Spaces
The Footbridge
The only way to reach the main cabin is to walk across a footbridge over Clear Creek. It is the first thing you experience and the last thing you remember. The creek runs beneath you. The
cottonwoods arch overhead. The cabin appears through the trees. It is a 30-second walk that does something to your shoulders that a week of vacation usually cannot.

The Deck
Off the living room sliding doors — seating, mountain views, and front-row access to the wildlife parade. Morning coffee here will ruin you for every other morning.

Clear Creek
Fishable trout creek running directly in front of the property. A valid Wyoming fishing license is required. The creek is wadeable in summer and fall. Spring runoff (April–June) brings higher, faster water — gorgeous to watch, but keep children supervised.
BLM Public Land
Directly behind the cabin, the land opens into Bureau of Land Management public walk-in territory. You can hike, explore, glass for wildlife, or just stand in open rangeland with nothing between you and the mountains.

Wildlife
This is not a “you might see wildlife” listing. This is a “you will see wildlife” listing. The property sits in an active corridor:
A resident rock chuck lives near the porch and will likely greet you
Mule deer walk through the yard regularly — mornings and evenings especially
Wild turkeys cross the footbridge (they have zero respect for your sense of wonder)
Bald eagles are frequently spotted circling overhead
Smaller birds, rabbits, and the occasional fox round out the cast

We mention this for two reasons: first, because it is one of the most magical parts of staying here. Second, because this is real, working Wyoming land. Wildlife is not a pest — it is a neighbor. If you are looking for a sterile, sealed environment, this is not your property. If you want to fall asleep listening to the creek and wake up to deer outside your window, you have found the right place.
