Gratitude | A 1920 Charm in Historic Residence Hill | 6 Bedrooms, 5.5 Baths, Sleeps 16 | Fireplace, Hardwood Floors, Event Opportunity | Walk to Downtown Sheridan, Wyoming | Bed & Breakfast in Sheridan

Summary:
The house was built in 1920, on the corner where Thurmond meets Kilbourne, in the part of Sheridan everyone here still calls Residence Hill. Six bedrooms. Five and a half baths. Two fireplaces. Hardwood floors that have held a hundred years of footfall and still catch the morning light through the original window casings. A covered deck runs the front of the house, where the afternoon sun crosses and the cottonwoods do their slow work.
We named the house Gratitude after Kally Klose — Lucy's mother — who started the December 26th letter-writing tradition that became the spine of this whole place. Every guest who stays here finds a desk, a pen, a stack of cards, and an invitation to write one thank-you note before they leave. Most do. Some write three.
The house sleeps twelve across six named rooms — Bunkhouse, Fortress, Sanctuary, Timberline, Refuge, and Paintbrush — each one drawn from somewhere real in this country. You're four blocks from Main Street, ten minutes from the Brinton, twenty from the foothills of the Bighorns, and one short driveway from a two-car garage that takes the snow off your morning. Sheridan College, the WYO Theater, King's Saddlery, and the Mint Bar are all walkable. The rodeo grounds and the polo field are a short drive.
The house is fully stocked. The kitchen has the essentials — salt, oil, sharp knives, coffee. The baths have the towels stacked and the soap waiting. The beds are turned down on arrival. For big meals and special requests, reach out and we'll make it happen.
You'll leave grateful.
The Space:
A 1920 Victorian with the bones intact and the systems brand-new — roof, siding, furnace, central air, finished basement, two gas fireplaces, and hardwood throughout the main floor. Built for a family at the turn of the last century and still doing exactly that. Sleeps twelve plus.
The house sits on a 7,353-square-foot corner lot, fully landscaped, partially fenced, on auto-sprinkler so the lawn stays green through the dry weeks of August. The covered deck runs along the front; the porch faces the morning sun. Off-street parking for two in the attached garage, a little overflow in the gated driveway, and street parking for the rest.
The Six Rooms
Refuge — the primary suite. King bed, en-suite bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower, walk-in closet, the best light in the house. Robes in the closet, blackout curtains for the late sleepers.
Fortress — queen bed, en-suite bath, a reading chair by the window, charming fireplace ( Renovation pending)
Bunkhouse — Log queen bed, with an extra sleeper futon in the closet, as well as this room features "Campsite," our charming tent closet for the kiddos to spend a little time. Horse decor! Full en-suite bath!
Timberline — Two twin beds with east-facing windows, with charming northern light accents, paired with some lap desks for breakfast or writing. No en-suite bath for this room.
Paintbrush — Two charming twin beds, an east-facing window,s and a charming writing desk. No en-suite bath for this room.
Sanctuary — Main level room with a king bed and a full en-suite bathroom, with the family room (The Parlor) just outside the door. The cool, dark room for the light sleeper, the elderly, or the teenager who wants a floor of their own.
Twelve sleep comfortably across the house in beds; the Bunkhouse flexes the count higher for families traveling with little ones, as well as some roll away or couch space available.
The Rest of the House
Kitchen — full chef's kitchen with island seating, gas range, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator. Salt, olive oil, and sharp knives already stocked. Coffee, tea, filters on the counter.
Dining room — seats twelve with the leaves in. The room the Christmas-card photo gets taken in.
Living room — two seating areas, a spacious couch, a gas fireplace, a smart TV with the major streaming apps. Books on the shelves you're welcome to read.
Foyer — original woodwork, a stack of thank-you cards on the entry table, the desk Lucy uses when she writes hers.
Covered deck — outdoor dining for eight, two lounge chairs, the late-afternoon sun and the long Wyoming evening.
Garage — attached, two stalls, automatic opener. Bring the truck.
Guest Access:
You'll have the entire house and yard. Self check-in with a code we send the morning of arrival — no key handoff, no waiting on a host. The covered deck, the yard, and every room in the house are yours. The only space not included is the locked owner's closet on the basement level, which holds household supplies. Everything else — the books, the games, the kitchen, the deck — is on the table.
The Neighborhood:
Residence Hill is the historic residential heart of Sheridan, a few blocks of cottonwood-shaded streets and turn-of-the-century homes on the south side of downtown. You're four blocks from Main Street, which means breakfast at Java Moon, lunch at the Pony, a beer at the Mint, a music event at The Living Room, and a walk back home without needing the car.
The Brinton Museum is fifteen minutes south. The Sheridan Inn (Buffalo Bill's old hotel) is six blocks away. King's Saddlery — the shop the rest of the country knows from the rodeo ropes — is on Main. The WYO Theater hosts touring shows year-round. The public library, the historic Trail End Mansion, and the Goose Creek paths are all within a mile. Sheridan College is a short drive to the edge of town towards the beautiful mountains.
For the outdoor week, the Bighorn National Forest is twenty minutes west and runs up to ten-thousand feet within an hour. Story, Big Horn, and the foothills are a short drive. The Tongue River canyon, the Cloud Peak Wilderness, and miles of public fly-fishing water are all inside a half-day round trip. In July, the Sheridan WYO Rodeo turns the whole town into a parade.
You came to Sheridan for the quiet, the air, and the slow morning. The neighborhood gives you that without making you drive for it.
Getting Around:
Sheridan is a car town for the surrounding country and a walking town for the downtown. Most days you won't need to drive — Main Street is four blocks east and most of what you want is on it. For the museums, the trails, the canyon, the foothills, and the night-sky drives up Red Grade Road, you'll want a vehicle.
Sheridan County Airport (SHR) is a six-minute drive — ten if traffic is heavy, which in Sheridan it almost never is. Billings Logan International (BIL) is two hours north and is the larger gateway. Casper (CPR) is three hours south. We can arrange private transportation to and from any of the three.
Rideshare exists in Sheridan but is light; if you're flying in without a rental car and don't want to deal with it, ask us about the Tesla rental or the private transfer when you book. We'll have you at the front door before your group finishes checking the kitchen.
Other Things to Note:
The house was built in 1920. It's been beautifully updated — new roof, new siding, new furnace, central air, finished basement — but the bones are old, the floors talk a little, and the front door has its own opinion in cold weather. It's part of why you came.
5 of the bedrooms are on the upper floor with a shared stair. If anyone in your group has mobility considerations, the main-floor bedroom (Paintbrush) is your best option.
Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 7 a.m in line with the neighborhood. Residence Hill is a real residential street and our neighbors are part of why this works.
2-4 parking spaces in front of the garage, additional street parking.
High-speed Wi-Fi in every room. Smart TVs with Netflix and the major streaming apps already logged in.
The gratitude desk in the foyer is real. Pens, cards, stamps, and an invitation. Write one. It changes the week.
Sheridan Write-Night, our occasional letter-writing evening with local authors, is hosted at the house when scheduled. If your stay overlaps with one, we'll let you know and you're welcome to join.
The Supper Club — a quarterly guest-chef dinner where proceeds benefit a local restaurant — runs on select weekends. Ask if you'd like to be added to the seat list.

Interaction with Guests:
Wyo Stays handles the whole stay. You'll get a message from us the day before you arrive, a check-in code the morning of, and a real human on the other end of the messaging thread from the moment you book to the morning you leave. We answer fast — usually inside fifteen minutes during daylight hours, and through the night if it's urgent.
We don't drop in. The house is yours for the length of the stay. But if something breaks, runs out, needs explaining, or could be made better — say the word. Mid-stay cleanings, grocery restocks, late check-outs, private chef nights, an extra crib, a celebration cake, a quiet ride to the airport — all available, all one message away.
Lucy, the owner, lives in town. She isn't on the property during stays, but if you want to know where to go, what to read, or where she'd send her own family for dinner — ask us. We'll relay.
