The Silo

Description

The Silo is a very unique experience, and we invite you to experience it! The Silo is exactly that – a guest room built inside a grain bin. It has all the traditional furnishings of a hotel room – a great bed, table with chairs, refrigerator, and microwave – but it does not have television, running water, or an indoor bathroom. It does have electricity, wi-fi, propane heat, and dishes and silverware. It also has a shaded outdoor kitchenette with a cook stove and an outdoor restroom facility (a toilet and solar shower) built in a large culvert. Best of all, The Silo has spectacular views. 

We provide basic kitchen supplies, a picnic table, cook stove, fresh water, bedding, linens, coffee, and board games, but the environment provides the best experience.  If you are lucky, you’ll get to listen to the rain on the tin roof or the coyotes singing on the hills. Some days, our horses roam the property, and every day, our dog will stop to say hello.  In the fall, you'll also hear the elk bugle.  But be warned, the wind might wake you with its loud lullaby. In the morning, watch for wildlife crossing on the hillside, or step across the drive to view the elk and buffalo on the neighbor’s game ranch. 

We get good cell service and a data connection with T-Mobile at The Silo. The wifi is being extended from the house, so it's strong enough to check your email but not capable of streaming movies or video chatting. However, high speed internet (and coffee and continental breakfast) is available at the Sunroom, which is a short walk away.

Four-wheel drive is necessary in snowy weather. You can watch a short video of the road conditions (filmed in good weather) by clicking here.
