The Buffalo Bill Boyhood Home is a modest log house that once sheltered young William F. Cody and his family. Moved from Iowa to Cody, Wyoming, the home has been restored to reflect the 1860s frontier era. Visitors can tour the furnished rooms, seeing simple pioneer artifacts and learning about Cody's formative years before he became a legendary showman. The site provides a personal connection to the man behind the myth, set against the backdrop of the Wild West he helped popularize.
