Moose Creek – UXU Arrivals & Departures

Moose Creek Lodge serves as the premier downtown basecamp for guests transitioning to the UXU Ranch. Located in the heart of Cody, Wyoming, we provide a seamless bridge between modern convenience and the rugged beauty of the Shoshone National Forest and the East Gates of Yellowstone.

Strategically positioned on Sheridan Avenue, the lodge allows guests to fully immerse themselves in the rich heritage of the American West before heading into the backcountry. Choosing a stay here ensures you are perfectly staged for the UXU Shuttle, eliminating travel stress and providing a sophisticated transition from transit to the trailhead. From the world-class galleries of the Buffalo Bill Center of the West to the legendary Cody Nite Rodeo, you can experience the best of our gateway city knowing that the vast wilderness of the Shoshone and the pristine landscapes of Yellowstone await just beyond the horizon.

The Journey to the Ranch

From Downtown Cody to the Wilderness Before your adventure into the nation’s first national forest begins, enjoy the historic charm of Cody. Our central location allows you to explore downtown on foot before the UXU Shuttle arrives to take you toward the mountains.

• Proximity to Yellowstone: We are the ideal jumping-off point for those exploring the East Gate of Yellowstone National Park before or after their ranch stay.

• Shoshone National Forest Access: Prepare for your dude ranch experience with a stay in the very town that serves as the gateway to the Shoshone’s vast alpine vistas and trail systems.

• The UXU Shuttle: Relax as we coordinate your transport from our front door straight to the UXU Ranch.

Arrival & Departure Logistics

Coordinating Your Stay To ensure a seamless transition to the ranch, we recommend staging your arrival with a stay at Moose Creek Lodge the night before your scheduled ranch check-in. This allows you to rest, regroup, and enjoy the amenities of downtown Cody before the UXU Shuttle departs. By starting your journey here, you ensure you are on-site and ready for transport, eliminating the variables of same-day travel and allowing your adventure to begin with a relaxed, sophisticated pace.

“It was great, family friendly service and right in the heart of town, so you got to walk around and see all the happenings in Cody. There is a little fake pony outside the office where kids can ride for 2 quarters (it is super cool for littles says my 8yo daughter). Onsite laundry room was very convenient, and the indoor pool allowed us to swim even when it was cool outside. The room we stayed in had two queens which were very comfortable. The ac worked nicely and the staff made sure we had everything we needed for the two nights we were there”
