- - - Current Review - 2025 - - - One of our favorite places to visit - great people, great views, and great climbing !!! - - - - - - - - May, 2025 Visit If you visit Devils Tower, you should plan to stay at Devils Tower Lodge (DTL) !! Stay at DTL for: The DTL team members The views of Devils Tower... the only places to sleep with a view of the Tower are the KOA campsite and Devils Tower Lodge The climbing Meeting fellow guests, and the communal meals The quiet of the nature The clear skies and stars at night If we could award six stars we would WOW!! - - - We recommend you also plan to climb... you CAN do it... all four of us - Mom, Dad, two kids, climbed and you can climb, too! You'll be safely roped in with a great climbing team. - - - We discovered Devils Tower Lodge (DTL) in 2017; we planned a visit to Devils Tower as part of an "out west" vacation and we were intrigued by the chance to see Devils Tower / Bear Lodge, from the room; then-owner Frank invited us to also climb with them, and we did not expect we would climb, but we said "Yes" and then when we got there we did climb - all four of us, and we had a phenomenal time... the whole trip was great and Devils Tower Lodge was the favorite highlight of that great trip. This year, in 2025, we had a chance for an extended weekend trip and we quickly confirmed that we'd go... Wyoming, especially Devils Tower Lodge, is a favorite place that excites us and also provides quiet and tranquility. In 2017 we climbed 120 feet up, while safely roped in; this trip I just hoped to get at least a little higher this time, and with Curtis we did make it higher, about 150 feet up... We climbed at the same spot on the Tower - they can point it to you so you can see it from the Lodge, and you can see the Lodge from where we climb. We enjoyed the "beginner" climb; if you're more experienced you can likely pick other locations on the Tower to climb. We climbed the Everlasting and Broken Tree routes 4-5 times. Curtis was a great guide!! Our daughter also climbed separately with DTL members (incl. Carlos), and they made it all the way the top... we were so proud that she set a goal and achieved it! A tornado hit the tower in 2024; the tornado damage was evident; it looked like the tornado hit the tower straight on, as trees were felled on both sides; we later saw much more damage as we drove toward Gillette. Breakfast and Dinner... great food, lovingly prepared by Hannah and Glen... plenty to fill you up... The rooms - each is uniquely decorated and nice and quiet, with great views. Stargazing... skies so dark; airplane flights do happen, but they are infrequent; you will likely see several satellites - smaller lights moving much more quickly than planes... for the first 90 min or so after sunset. Sunsets are later, and longer/slower than back home in STL. Peaceful... so quiet and peaceful there... you don't miss any noise; you are relaxed. The views of Devils Tower / Bear Lodge are wonderful, and the owners - Rachel and Gabe - a wonderful couple, now parents, are welcoming and giving. Thank you, Curtis, Carlos, Hannah & Glen, and Rachel and Gabe! - - - Original Review - 2017, abbreviated - - - AWESOME! Go. Stay. Experience. You'll be soooooo glad you did!We had a 15 day vacation to 8 places in Wyoming, South Dakota, Montana, Utah and Colorado, and it was all amazing... this was out best-ever family trip for many reasons... and climbing Devils Tower with Gabe and Julius was THE BEST part of our amazing trip.If we could award six stars we would!... We reserved the cabin with two bedrooms... a full bed in each room and two futons in the large open room... amazing view of Devils Tower from the front door, from the nice and large patio deck, and from the panoramic window in the bathroom. ... The climbing was one of the highlights of our trip. They have a training room next to the main house where they fit you for shoes and the climbing harnesses, and where you learn that climbing is "not a series of pull-ups, which is often what they show in the movies," but is mostly legs pushing you upward, and where you put that into practice on a short rock wall. ... We climbed three routes from where we were, all starting right there at the same place, just a few feet left or right of the other. I truly thought we'd be happy if we climbed about 20 feet high, and lasted a full hour. As it was, all four of us climbed up the 100-foot route and the 115-foot route, and we were there for the entire six-hours that Gabe and Julius planned. ... Since coming home, we have been to our local pool, which has a 12-foot rock wall. This wall frustrates us because it requires so much upper body strength, and it is significantly more difficult that's climbing Devils Tower. Seriously... the rock wall at our pool takes more effort to climb than it did to climb Devils Tower.Thank you Frank, and the entire team at Devils Tower Lodge! ----- ----- ----- read more

Love this place! From the moment you arrived, you are greeted and made to feel like you are at home! They showed us to our room, we chose the window room, and the view was spectacular. We also chose the dinner option, which I also recommend because there are few places nearby to eat. The dining area also has a great view of the tower. The communal dining allows you to interact with the other guests and the hosts! The dinner was homemade and delicious! I want to keep this place a secret because they don't have many rooms, but if you're planning on a trip to Devil's Tower... this THE PLACE to stay! read more

We had a wonderful stay in this unique lodge. Located inside the national park down a long dirt road this 6 bedroom lodge has incredible views of the tower. We stayed in the windows room that had a gorgeous view of the tower from the bed and a private patio to enjoy the view. We opted for the dinner and were very glad we could stay and enjoy this view. There didn't seem to be a ton of other options nearby. The dinner was delicious. We had baked chicken, potatoes, peas, rice and salad with ice cream for dessert. The conversation with the other guests and hosts was great. The breakfast was also delicious. Coffee is ready at 6am and breakfast at 8am. We had pancakes, eggs and watermelon. Yogurt, toast and English muffins were available along with bananas, apples and clementines. It was all perfect and the hosts were great. You can bring your own alcohol if you choose. Everything was clean. read more

Words cannot describe the beauty of this place. You essentially have the place to yourself...the entire place I think has 6 rooms, family style dining (do not miss the homemade dinners and breakfasts)....I have stayed here two years in a row. I cannot wait for the third year. The staff focuses both on the rock climbing experience as well as the lodge experience (this place is both a haven for climbers on the Tower as well as families..and they can train you in a matter of days to climb it.) I have stayed in The Windows Room twice. If you like peace, quiet, and tranquility this is the place for you. It is a place to relax. It may not be the place for small children or teens as there is nothing to do except enjoy 10,000 stars and wildlife of every kind, and having the whole park to yourself after sunset, but if you are an adult, enjoy hiking, nature, and ending the day with a good book, a nice glass of wine, and meeting some fascinating people over a communal dinner....then this IS FOR YOU. I can't say enough about it..... read more

Could have stayed longer but just passing through. We wanted to see the sun rise over the tower and we got to see it from bed! The windows room was cozy, clean and comfortable. Gave and Rachel are super hosts and their staff was amazing. The food was amazing. Gabe talked to my husband about coming back and getting climbing lessons. We will definitely be back! read more

I wish we could have stayed more than one night. Frank and his staff are so friendly and welcoming ... After camping and staying in a hotel it was really nice to stay somewhere that was a home, somewhere comfortable and kind. Great breakfast and coffee, too! We look forward to staying over again when we are back in the area. Even if you're not a rock climber, this is a great place to stay when visiting the park. read more

I looooved my experience here. This was my first time staying at a bed and breakfast and it added so much to my experience at Devils Tower. It was so intimate, our hosts were very warm and the food was fantastic! From here on out, I will be trying to make every overnight stay at a bnb! Just excellent. read more

Fabulous!! We only stayed for a night but the view from our room was incredible!! We had a view of Devil's Tower all night long. It's a bed and breakfast but they offered dinner for a little more money, which we opted for. The dinner was well prepared. We sat as a group with everyone (staff and other guests) so we got to learn a little bit about the others staying in the lodge, those who work there, and the owner himself. This morning we had breakfast there and that was well prepared as well. Plenty of food for everyone at both meals and plenty of conversations all around the table. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. If you have the opportunity to stay here, please do. read more

If any of you guys ever have the urge to climb Devils Tower give Frank Sanders a call. At the Devils Tower Lodge. He's A great dude, with great stories and he's an excellent, safe guide.

Highly recommended for a guided climb up Devil's Tower. This place has a lot of heart, experienced guides, and a great community. Frank lets climbers camp out in the yard for free (with a nice view of the Tower). Our guide was Jenny, she was great and very knowledgeable. We had some extra time after the ascent and she graciously agreed to teach us a few techniques for trad climbing and building anchors. Overall cannot say too many God things about the place! read more
