About this property

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!

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!

Governor's Home stay

This home was a pleasure. All amenities were available and the home was nice a clean. There are many labels around the home on what to touch and not touch. Given the history of the home, it is understandable. The location is nice and quiet location.

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!
