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!

NARGS Conference at the Cheyenne Botanical Center

For our visit to the Cheyenne Botanical Center the Governor's Home was excellent. The kitchen is very well stocked. The bedrooms are spacious and beds very comfy. The living areas and dining room are very comfortable and relaxing. Though we gravitated to the front porch. A great place to hang out and chat.

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.
