New in July 2025!! The Woody Trailhead Cabin is in Cooke City, Montana off the beaten
path.
Minutes away from downtown Cooke City. A short 4-mile drive to the NE entrance of
Yellowstone, Beartooth Highway is located along the main street in Cooke City and will
lead you to a scenic 90-minute drive to Red Lodge, MT.
The lack of modern conveniences means a rare opportunity to disconnect and immerse
oneself in the natural world. It is this very remoteness that keeps Cooke City special,
offering the kind of peaceful retreat that is increasingly hard to find. There is no modern
grocery store in Cooke City. We suggest shopping for items you’ll need in Cody,
Gardiner, or Red Lodge. The local General Store and gas statiosn will have last-minute
items you may need and are fun to visit.
For those seeking a true escape into nature, Cooke City offers tranquility and adventure
in equal measures. The surrounding wilderness is ideal for hiking, wildlife viewing, and
stargazing far from urban lights. In the evenings, you might spot elk grazing nearby or
hear the distant call of a coyote beneath a sky blazing with stars. Local eateries and a
handful of charming shops provide a taste of mountain hospitality, though their
schedules can be as unpredictable as the weather, especially in winter months. Plan for
meals and fuel, as services are limited and hours may vary with the seasons. Whatever
brings you to this tucked-away corner of Montana, you’ll find Cooke City’s rugged
beauty and quiet seclusion make for an unforgettable stay.
