Cots and/or air mattresses may also be utilized in this private space, if desired. (NOTE: The garage office and bathroom are unavailable during the months of October until mid-May to avoid pipe breakages due to the extreme cold temperatures in Wyoming.)

Ample parking is available. Outdoors you will find rustic seating around the fire pit. There is an outdoor swing to enjoy the scenery, high-end patio furniture on the deck, and a built-in horseshoe area to enjoy as well. Don't forget the expansive stairway that leads to the river!

The house is equipped with a working security system, and cameras (non-working from a previous security system) are installed in the basement and garage office. Outside cameras/floodlights are installed with the security system.

Amazing Property for the family

Our family had a great time exploring the frozen river, playing in the basement and enjoying the beautiful views. The house was in immaculate condition. Absolutely no complaints. The family is begging to return in the summer!

Peaceful, panoramic family retreat

This is a wonderful property. Just my wife and I, but immediately wished we had brought kids and grandkids as there is lots of space and a lot of fun activities on site. Super comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen was well supplied. A scenic deck that we never grew tired of relaxing on. Thanks, Krystal for all your help along the way!!

Tranquility and comfort

This was a perfect house! Well stocked with everything you could need. We explored Wyoming by day and played pool and table tennis at night. The view was fabulous, but I was very disappointed that we never made it to the river. My son brought his fishing poles and is quite adventurous but even he couldn't break through the dense brush at the base of the stairs

Family Trip

Our family came for a weekend car show, and really hadn't expected to find this home just so beautiful. It was just so perfect to come back to after spending all day enjoying the hot air balloons and the car show. The house is so roomy, we never felt crowded. This property is so peaceful and relaxing. It really was so nice that we could all spend this time together in such a comfortable home. The host provided everything you could possibly think of. We even watch a Bald Eagle come by to check us out on the absolutely gorgeous deck. Perfect view of the river and the mountains. The host was easily available, and very accommodating. On our last day, we all got up early so we could sit on the deck and enjoy the view and sunrise one more time. It was great and we hope to come back and stay here again.

Wedding weekend in Lander

We were looking for a quiet relaxing place while in town for our dear friends wedding and boy did we find it with Krystal and Scott’s place. It’s everything advertised and more. Even though we didn’t get to use the basement with all the fun amenities (because of our schedule) we enjoyed our mornings on the back deck listening to the river go by and just enjoying family time. It is a quiet, relaxing haven and yet close to Lander and all the small town fun. Krystal was great and checked in with us to be sure we had everything we needed. We will most definitely be back when in Lander!

Beautiful House and Property

This is a great house with a lot of amenities. I met my brother and sisters here for a family get together and it was perfect. The back deck has an amazing view of the river and surroundings. We saw beaver playing in the rive, deer, rabbits, and a golden eagle and bald eagle cruising the river for trout. If you are looking for a place in the Lander/Riverton area I highly recommend this place.

Best VRBO ever!

The house was super clean and very nice when we arrived. The hosts maintained good communication when we needed to get ahold of them and there was plenty of room for our group of 5. The younger boys absolutely loved the basement “game” room downstairs and the views were amazing! Will definitely be staying here again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Forrest and Krystal Scott

Host profile image
Forrest is a tax accountant and Krystal is an educator. We purchased this home expecting to make it our family home (we have 3 children), but circumstances changed our situation. We have family that lives in the Lander area, so we enjoy staying in our WY home whenever we get the chance. We do ask that you leave our WY home in the same condition that you found it when you first walked through the doors. We know that you will enjoy it and its surroundings as much as we do. The views of the mountains and the Popo Agie River are absolutely stunning from the back deck! Enjoy the views, the privacy, the peace and our home!

It REALLY is MORE than OK in WY!!

Why they chose this property

Seclusion!
Privacy!
Gorgeous Views!
Luxury home with spacious rooms!
Wildlife!
Close to many Wyoming well-known (and even more not-so-well-known, but so great to experience) attractions!!

What makes this property unique

The views from the deck are stunning! According to a recent guest, "It has THE best view in Fremont County!"
