Devils Tower WY, Bed and breakfasts

Built in 1879 by the Rock Creek Stage Line, the Blacksmith Shop we now call the Bozeman Trail Museum originally satisfied the needs of travelers on the nearby Bozeman Trail, which connected southeastern Wyoming to Virginia City, Montana. O.P. Hanna was the first settler to make his permanent home here, also in 1879. John DeWitt, another early settler, was the original owner of the Blacksmith Shop. It changed hands several times before Mr and Mrs Goelet Gallatin bought it and restored it in 1936. Eventually, it became a storehouse for a variety of historic items, and was completely refurbished in 1976 by the Big Horn Bi-Centennial Committee. In 1990, with the official establishment of the Big Horn Historical Society, the site became an official museum.
