Vee Bar Ranch Lodge, Historic guest ranch in Albany County, Wyoming, United States

Vee Bar Ranch Lodge is a cluster of structures in Wyoming combining a log-built main lodge with supporting historic buildings around the property. The site sits along Little Laramie River and includes an original corral and stock chute alongside cabin accommodations.

The lodge began in 1891 as a private residence and underwent expansion in the early 1900s under new ownership. Its recognition on the National Register in 1986 acknowledges its importance to early ranching development in the region.

The property functions as a working space where daily ranch routines around horses and cattle shape how visitors engage with the landscape. The arrangement of buildings between pastures and the river reflects how people historically organized their lives around livestock and land management.

The lodge sits in a bend of the Little Laramie River, west of Laramie off Wyoming Highway 130. Guest accommodations are in the historic lodge and cabins, with the original corral and stock chute among the five contributing buildings. The 1975 addition holds modern rooms; ask ahead about step-free access, since the log buildings have uneven thresholds.

Lionel C.G. Sartoris bought the Vee Bar lands from homesteader Theodore Brubaker in 1890, but his Douglas William Sartoris Cattle Company failed by 1892 and he left for South America. Susan J. Fillmore then took over the ranch, leasing it from 1903 to Gordon and Myra Wright, who bought it in 1911 and added a second floor to the lodge.
