The Tipi Retreat

04/23/2026

Judge Simpson has ruled in our favor in our latest court case. We will be putting our application through yet again and praying that we have accomplished what the Lord has required thus far. We will have all facilities open again soon, rather than just the one tipi.

We are so very grateful for the enormous outpouring of prayers, support, and loyalty. You all are the BEST!! We look forward to your return.

Isaiah 41: 10 ¶ Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

11 Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.

12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.

Re-Opening in May/June 2025

Winter is slipping past at record speed and we are so excited to be bringing back The Tipi Retreat in full force!

Glamping, the new term being used for upscale, or glamorous, camping is one of the fastest growing trends in the hospitality industry.
Glamour camping offers the wilderness access and fresh air of camping, but is filled with lush and comfortable amenities! The Tipi Retreat is conveniently located just 5 miles from Thermopolis, Wyoming, the Hot Springs State Park, and overlooking the Wind River meeting the Big Horn River, known as the Wedding of the Waters.

“Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, magic, and power in it. Begin it now.” -William Murray

Is it about winning, or rather,
How we Win?

This story embodies that spirit...
"In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race.
A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after realizing what was happening, he started shouting at the Kenyan for him to continue running; but Mutai didn't understand his Spanish.
Fernandez eventually caught up to him and instead of passing him, he pushed him to victory.
A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"
Ivan replied, “My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win.” The journalist insisted “But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win.” The journalist insisted again, “But you could have won!" Ivan looked at him & replied, “But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of that medal?
What would my Mom think of that?”
Values are transmitted from generation to generation."

The Steven’s family and Tipi Grill are sponsoring The Month of Music with a live band every Saturday in October, FREE to all in the pavilion of the Hot Springs State Park.

Christian Wallowing Bull, Winner of the 2021 Wyoming Singer-Songwriter’s competition in Ten Sleep, Wyoming starts at 5pm.

Indigenous singer-songwriter, Christian resides in Wyoming, just outside the Wind River Reservation.

With familial relations to the Wind River, as an enrolled member of the Northern Arapaho Tribe, his heart as a storyteller is to represent his own indigenous roots, and to bridge perspective and healing to the lives of those indigenous, as well as non-indigenous.


He is a powerful voice in today's industry. Ever since the humble beginnings of his first album release, "Warrior" in (2020), he has been leaving his growing audience and following in complete awe. With a voice like thunder, he carries an ancestral power in all of his writings.
