Rustic

Enjoy your visit to Yellowstone the way Nature intended, with natural wood finishes, lava rocks, and locally sourced gardens.

Local

The White Buffalo has used local labor since we first opened our doors. Now the Beattie family carries on our legacy and dedication to our community.

Full Hot Breakfast

We are the only hotel in West Yellowstone offering a full, hot, delicious breakfast buffet. Enjoying our fresh-cooked breakfast in our private dining room is far superior to standing in line for 30 or 45 minutes and paying 50% to 100% more in other locations. The cost of the breakfast is $13.95 per person (plus tax) and 2 breakfasts daily are included in the price of each room. Additional guests pay separately. Kids six years old and under eat free when accompanied by an adult. Our fabulous breakfast buffet is open from May 15 to Oct 15 each year. You're going to love it!

No elevator.  No pool.

Our property is a two-floor walk-up. When it was built there was some concern over seismic activity and the builders decided not to put in an elevator.  So in the event that you desire main floor accommodations, please let just us know when you reserve.


Also, despite what some very old reservation sites and search engines may show you, the property has not had a pool for many years. But don't worry, you'll love the deck area where it once was in our exclusive courtyard.

Cancellation

All cancellations must be handled through the entity  with which guests reserved, whether it be with an Online Travel Agency or with us directly. Reservations cancelled 72 hours or more prior to stay will receive a full refund.

A white buffalo is considered sacred in several Native American religions, and wild white buffalo are visited for prayer and other religious rituals. They are extremely rare, with only a few having ever been documented in the west.

Our White Buffalo is a West Yellowstone original.  We welcome you to come and see for yourself.
