Booked the buffalo lodge because we were passing through I-25 and need a place to rest overnight. Reached around 9:45 pm and was checked in quickly by the friendly staff. It an old motel so expect only minimal but very clean place. Served breakfast pastries and coffee so that was another good thing. Would definitely recommend.

These people are super kind. All kinds of truckers stuck there due to the horrible Wyoming wind and they made homemade Spaghetti for everyone. I will stay here anytime and support these kind of folks forever!

A great place to stay in Chugwater! Shelby was super friendly and helpful. Rooms were comfortable. Open game room upstairs. Coffee, pastries, orange juice, cereal, and yogurt for breakfast. I come to the area for work and will definitely stay here again!

We stayed at Buffalo Lodge while traveling and were very pleased with our stay. We were looking for a place with a reasonable rate in comparison to nearby Cheyenne and were not disappointed with this find. We arrived later in the evening, tired, and road worn. The owner/manager was so kind and accommodating. We were traveling with a load and our tarp was damaged and she gave us a new tarp. She was friendly and helpful. Very hospitable. The rooms were comfortable, clean and homey. They have a basic cold continental breakfast and hot coffee in the mornings but there's also a cute soda fountain in town that serves breakfast. If you are ever driving through nowhere Wyoming and need a good place to lay your head, I definitely recommend this hotel.

Maybe not perfect location (there are better places to see in Wyoming) but very pleasant atmosphere, and useful team. I strongly recommend to sleep there

This place is fantastic! Years back as a truck driver I was stranded in a blizzard and the owners ( the wife ) cooked me up a hot meal. It was very late and of course I was not planning on being stranded but as a diabetic that needed food to eat in emergency this place and the owners was a Godsend.

Couldn't find a room in Cheyenne so headed north. As I was searching for the next hotel/motel the Buffalo lodge popped up. So I called and was able to reserve a room. The lady was so nice over the phone and when we got there, was not disappointed at all! Comfort, make you feel at home. Rooms are tiny but very clean in my opinion. Would stay again.
