Absolutely Gorgeous Home!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Carter Vista in Cody, Wyoming at the end of August. We were so happy with the home and accommodations. Greg and Tammy truly thought of everything with this lovely property and my family felt so at home for our entire stay. The kitchen was beautiful and so well appointed! The views from the property were amazing, and we thoroughly enjoyed drinking our morning cup of coffee on the front porch. The beds were soft, and the bedrooms were welcoming. We all slept so well! The home was so clean and just absolutely perfect. We truly hope to come back and stay again next year! Thank you for making our time in Cody so wonderful!

Perfect vacation home!

We came to Cody for a family vacation over the 4th of July. This was the PERFECT place to stay, a short drive to all the action in town, but nice and quiet and secluded to have some quiet time! Tammy was so helpful with all of her travel tips, and the house had absolutely everything you could ever need. We will be back to this rental!

Wonderful Relaxing Time

We loved this property. The only bad thing is we didn't have more time to spend at the property itself. It was so peaceful being surrounded by mountains and wildlife. The property itself was everything as promised....and Cody Wyoming is such a cute town with plenty to do. This VRBO would be highly recommended by us!

This home was nearly all-inclusive! I wish more places were like this. The hosts literally considered every item imaginable that you could ever need. We traveled all over Wyoming and this was the only place felt like home. The hike up to the Crater on the mountain behind the house is difficult, but well worth seeing the phenomenal structure and views. Because of the convenient location the drive to the airport was quick at 5 am.

FABULOUS home with mountain views!

All I can say is WOW!!! It is the most beautiful home, and has the most spectacular mountain views of Carter Mountain in Wyoming. Our family stayed here for 9 days. The owners provided everything we needed to have a comfortable and relaxing vacation. They have gone above and beyond our expectations of any VRBO that we have ever stayed at. Laundry detergent, soap, paper towels, toilet paper, extra toothbrushes, and even Q-tips were stocked in case you forgot to bring some with you! They even have a cooler and picnic basket for you to use on your outdoor adventures to Yellowstone or the Grand Tetons. The East Entrance to Yellowstone is 52 miles away and the drive there is breathtaking. Carter Vista is about 5 miles outside of Cody. It's close enough to town yet you feel like you are in the country. We enjoyed watching wildlife from the front porch and hearing the birds singing in the morning. The owners live nearby and gave us great tips on places to eat and things to see and do around the area. If we could give this home a 100 we would! It was perfect!

Carter Vista is a wonderful place

Carter Vista location is very private yet close to everything, Yellowstone, downtown Cody, the Cody museum and much more. The home has a very interesting history, is well stocked, great views and your own private crater mountain, you can hike up if you are feeling adventurous. The night sky is glorious, Milky Way, Big Dipper. Tammy and Greg are great hosts, informative of activities you can attend in Cody. This is a great place, you will not be disappointed and you may not want to leave. 5 +++ stars

Beautiful home and very clean. Loved being in open spaces to see the stars.

Reading about the history of the land and actually having space to hike and walk was amazing. Tammy and her husband are so easy to communicate with. They take great pride in making everything perfect. The house is not only a beautiful environment it is very clean. If anyone is staying or just spending a few nights on Cody Wyoming don’t miss this house!!!

Wonderful stay and great WiFi

This place had it all. When staying in other places, we've always found something the house was lacking, but not this place. The owners have thought of everything. The internet is great (conducted multiple simultaneous video conferences, etc.) so working from here is not a problem. The house was immaculate and the owners (who live not far away) were very responsive and friendly, as was their dog. I'd stay here again and recommend this place in a moment. The valley just past the house is breathtaking and pictures don't do it justice.

Yellowstone Trip

This place exceeded our expectations. The home itself is beautiful and fully equipped with everything you need. It was in a perfect proximity for us to venture out around Cody WY as well as our trip over to Yellowstone and back two different days. If we do a family trip to Cody again we would definitely stay here first.

Awesome home and location

Beautiful new home, mountain view was perfect. Tammy and Greg thoughtfully furnished and stocked the place with everything you need...from the plush towels to kitchen stuff. So much history behind the building of this home. Enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings. We prefer to cook at home, so having grill and outdoor table and chairs was perfect. Tammy and Greg are so responsive, and hospitality was a 10+. Mo, the dog, loves attention and ear scratches. Convenient to east gate into Yellowstone. Visit Buffalo Bill Dam, Timmer Gallery (downtown), and downtown Cody. Horses in pasture behind the house was a treat. This is one of the best VRBOs we've stayed. Thank you, Tammy, Greg, and Mo for sharing your place with us. HIGHLY recommend.

Amazing property close to Yellowstone

From the second we found this and booked it, I knew we were in for a treat. This home is well appointed and perfect for anyone. It’s clean, homey, beautiful, and close to anything you’d want to do in Cody. If the Poleys keep up this level of hospitality, this will be the most sought after property near Yellowstone’s east entrance. The use of space, decor, cleanliness, and location make it perfect. The home is well stocked with anything you’d need. And the location is amazing.

Loved Carter Vista

Tammy and Greg are very welcoming as well as their doggie Mo. We absolutely loved the location of the house as well as the layout. It was perfect for our family of 4. The views from the house are the best! The house was clean, and had everything we needed plus some! We highly recommend Carter Vista!!
