Hotel Wolf

The Wolf Hotel in Saratoga, Wyoming in the Upper North Platte River Valley.

On New Year's Eve, 1893, The Hotel Wolf opened with a gala masquerade ball and sumptuous dinner. Exactly 100 years later, a like celebration commenced to honor the "Grand Old Gal" of the Valley. Frederick G. Wolf built the two and one-half story, red-brick and frame building way back then. It was the tallest building in downtown Saratoga for many years. Since Mr. Wolf was such a popular businessman, the Hotel soon became the hub of the community, noted for its "fine food and convivial atmosphere."

In 1977, Kathleen and Doug Campbell purchased the Hotel registered in the National Register of Historic Places. They have remodeled and restored the building and restaurant. Today, three of their children -- Kirsten, Judd, and Meghan -- participate in the management of the Hotel. With careful attention to its historical value and the comfort and convenience for modern-day travelers, the Hotel Wolf stands to welcome you.

Furnished with some of the original furniture, the guest rooms are quaint, clean, and charming. An Executive Suite featuring wet bar, queen bed, and sitting area is available. Three additional suites have been added to provide upscale accommodations. All nine guest rooms sport private baths.

The Hotel Wolf Restaurant enjoys a regional reputation for excellence. Luncheon items include a varied selection of freshly prepared sandwiches, the famous Wolf Burger, soup, and a fresh salad bar, along with daily specials. At dinner, various cuts of steak, prime rib, chicken and seafood are featured, accompanied by the soup/salad bar. The Old Time Saloon is a great gathering place for travelers, sportsmen and salesmen to recap the day and partake of a favorite beverage. Originally designated the "Sample Room," it's said the best fishing of all takes place right in this room - night after night!

Saratoga, elevation 6,792 feet, is nestled among cattle ranches in the Upper North Platte River Valley, east of the Continental Divide. Prehistoric volcanic activity left the town with a beautiful mineral hot springs pool, free and open 24 hours a day all year long. Flanked by the Sierra Madre and Snowy Range Mountains, the area is abundant with wildlife. The North Platte is a Blue Ribbon trout stream alive with activity in the summer and fall. Big game hunting begins in September. Most spectacular is the Snowy Range Scenic Byway, Hwy 130, not to be missed.
