The remote Skyline is perfect if you want to get away from it all, experience some Western hospitality and saddle up for some family horseback riding ($40 per hour). Rooms in a three-story lodge are spacious and modern, with handcrafted features and nice outside balconies, and the location – 3 miles outside of Cooke City – is officially the middle of nowhere. Breakfast included.
