Cozy Cabin Getaway | Bear’s Den at Cottonwood Cabins

Welcome to the Bear’s Den at Cottonwood Cabins — a cozy, pet-friendly Wyoming cabin located in Riverside, Wyoming, just minutes from Saratoga and Encampment. Tucked beside a peaceful water channel that runs seasonally, this historic cabin offers a relaxing home base for guests exploring the Sierra Madre region, Saratoga hot springs, snowmobile trails, hiking, fishing, and all the outdoor adventure Southern Wyoming has to offer.

Dating back to the 1930s, local history suggests the cabin may have once supported early U.S. Forest Service activity in the area. Today, the Bear’s Den blends rustic Wyoming character, quiet nights, and modern comforts into the kind of stay where you can slow down, kick your boots off, and relax beneath wide-open skies.

Relax & Recharge
With two comfortable double beds, soft linens, heating for cool Wyoming nights, and a convenient single-level layout, the Bear’s Den comfortably sleeps up to four guests. Whether you're sipping coffee at sunrise, watching TV after a day outdoors, or unwinding under the stars, you’ll feel right at home.

Comforts of Home
The cabin’s kitchen includes a stove, refrigerator, microwave, cookware, and dining space for simple meals after a day exploring Riverside, Saratoga, or Encampment. Guests also have access to a washer and dryer, making longer stays and outdoor adventures even more convenient.

The cabin includes Wi-Fi and a kitchen table workspace that works well for remote work, trip planning, or checking emails between adventures.

Outdoor Space to Enjoy
Step outside onto your private deck with seating and a gas grill, perfect for peaceful mornings and relaxing Wyoming evenings beside the seasonal water channel. Free parking is available directly on the property for easy access year-round.

Pet-Friendly for Your Trail Buddy
Dogs are welcome with approval and a small pet fee, making it easy to bring your four-legged adventure companion along.

    My husband and I, along with our black lab, spent 4 nights at the Bear's Den, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The cabin is very clean and beautifully maintained and was very comfortable. We were fortunate that, during the majority of our time there, we were the only guests, and it was so quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. We enjoyed spending time outside along the canal. Riverside/Encampment are in a beautiful area of WY, which we enjoyed exploring. Matt and Allison clearly have pride in ownership of their cabins, and it truly elevated our experience. They communicated clearly with us, and we were grateful that they welcomed dogs. Thank you for your warm hospitality!

    We had a nice stay. If the cabin would have had ac and a living room I would have rated higher.
