Governor's Home (Historic Property)

Steps away from Wyoming's beautiful gold domed capitol building, Governor's Home served as the official residence of Wyoming's governor in the 1930's and is registered in The National Register of Historic Places. The home is well preserved with original hardwood floors and vintage style throughout. The 3500 sq foot property has recently been refurnished to ensure comfort whilst retaining its vintage style offering four bed rooms and a spacious living room, dining room and a modern, well equipped kitchen. Each bedroom is complete with a SmartTV and high speed wireless internet is available throughout the property.

Central to all that Cheyenne has to offer, one can reach the Capitol building, Wyoming's State Museum , Supreme Court and the Cheyenne Regional Medical center within a short 5 - 10 minutes walk. Walk a further 5 - 10 minutes and you'll find Cheyenne's historic downtown, vibrant restaurant, brewery and bar scene, boutique shops as well numerous museums celebrating Wyoming's western heritage.

Head in the opposite direction from the Governor's home, and within 20 -25 minutes find yourself at Lion's park, Cheyenne's world famous Botanical garden, Frontier Day's famous Rodeo and Concert facilities and the Frontier days old west museum.

Ask us about our discounts for children and opportunity to waive the damage deposit.

Stay in historic style and comfort while being close to it all!

Family visit
We really enjoyed our time at the Governor’s home…perfect for board games, watching movies and just hanging out all together. This was our 2nd Memorial Day weekend staying there. Staying in this beautiful home with our grown children is becoming a wonderful tradition.

Perfect for CFD!
We had an amazing stay with my family and friends from Florida! Very convenient ride or bike ride to Frontier Park. Walking distance to the parade, and easy to get to downtown and other hiking / nature attractions around Cheyenne. The house accommodated our large group very comfortably and everyone enjoyed it! Highly recommended!

This property served as a great venue for a small church retreat. Not a lot of frills, bet everything was more than adequate and as described in a unique historical setting.

Excellent and memorable stay
My son was married in Cheyenne so some of the family stayed at the house and we all absolutely loved it. The house was so well maintained and had such a wonderful charm. Accommodations were perfect and March met to all of our needs. Expectations were definitely met and very impressed with home.

Cheyenne stay
A beautiful home in a terrific neighborhood convenient to downtown. The house for its age is well maintained with the exception of some upgrades needed in the bathrooms. Would definitely stay again if ever in the area.

Wonderful house in a great location
The house is very large, a cool older home and well appointed. The neighborhood is wonderful and full of historic homes and it's a quick walk to the capitol. Our host was very good with communications and made sure we had everything we needed. We would love to return again.

Lovely well appointed home
The former governor’s home is quite lovely. The kitchen is very well equipped and up to date. It is a short walk over to the capital and beyond to the historic train depot. The neighborhood is quiet, and our host was attentive.

Wonderful home!
We stayed here with my parents and our 3, 5 and 7 year olds for a short family get together. The house was perfect and the hosts were extremely responsive to any and all questions. The location is ideal - right by the capital and a short walk from lots of restaurants, shopping, museums. My kids all cried when we had to leave because they loved the house so much! Thanks for a great mini vacation.

Fantastic House!
We were in Wyoming for the App State/Wyoming football game (a game that App should have won...Ugh!). We found the Governor's Home on VRBO and decided to stay in Cheyenne instead of Laramie. This house was "fantastic." It’s like stepping back in time with all the modern conveniences. It was very comfortable for the 7 of us. Plenty of room and only a short walk to the Capital Building. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
