For more than seven decades, the Gannett Peak Lodge has been part of Pinedale's Western heritage and lodging landscape as a classic drive-up motor lodge. The Gannett Peak Lodge currently operates seasonally from mid-May until mid-October, serving mostly the summer tourist niche. Extensively remodeled in 2017, the property offers 19 rooms in four configurations. Additional spaces serve as a front desk and office, on-site laundry, supply storage and as an on-site housing unit for either employees or a live-in owner. The convenient location is within walking distance of restaurants, shopping, Town of Pinedale parks and other points of interest. The four city lots comprising 0.32 acres afford adequate parking for guests. All rooms feature air conditioning, per-room dedicated WIFI, 40" LCD TVs, and multiple windows for cross ventilation. This turnkey offering in Pinedale's limited hospitality space provides the opportunity to run the Lodge as a going concern, or to expand the operations to more of a year-round facility. Crafted from barracks originally built by President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) program that launched during the Great Depression, the Gannett Peak Lodge's buildings were constructed in 1938 and located at Camp Farson, about 60 miles south of Pinedale. By the 1940s, the CCC program began winding down. The Camp Farson barracks were eventually sold to locals who moved them to Pinedale for use as business structures. Several became the Half Moon Motel, eventually renamed the Gannett Peak Lodge in honor of Wyoming's highest mountain in the Wind River Range. After WWII, the West saw a surge of tourists arriving by automobile to explore Wyoming's magnificent scenery, a popular travel choice still to this day. The Gannett Peak Lodge and its owners are proud of its heritage as a welcoming respite for everyone who comes to visit this special place.
