Dining in Cody:

There is a variety of dining experiences awaiting you in Cody.

The Irma

It is worth seeing the historic bar and some of the historic locals at breakfast in the dining room of the hotel. Some of the less historic locals drink at the new bar after work.

Maxwell's

One block from the front door of the museum. Good food, very consistent and lots of variety.

Bubba's BBQ

Right outside of the AmericInn. Big tasty BBQ- no frills, lots of sauce

Line Dancing and Drinking:

And unfortunately, smoking too, at Cassie's out on the West Strip going towards Yellowstone.

Silver Dollar Bar

Downtown, no line dancing, don't even think about it! but drinks and pool tables.

Coffee:

Little drive through coffee huts at both ends of town. The coffee hangout in town is BETA on 12th street.

Dude Ranches outside of Cody:

(These are too far to commute in for the meeting but make a great pre-conference experience)

7D Ranch in Sunlight
307-587-9885
ranch7d@wyoming.com

Rocking D River Ranch in Wapiti
307-587-8329
rockingd@wyoming.com

There are many, many more dude ranches in the area.

Lodging in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons:

Book early for these sites. Everything from basic cabins, camp sites, and regal lodges are available. Old Faithful Inn is not to be missed even if you just stop in for an ice cream cone.

If you can't book early, we have had pretty good luck just checking in with the front desk for cancellations.
