About Sheridan and Wyoming

Sheridan is a vibrant and friendly community, located at the base of the Big Horn Mountains, in the great state of Wyoming.  Here, we are able to offer a wide variety of amenities for the community while maintaining a small-town identity.  This is the perfect place for an outdoor enthusiast, as well those seeking a break from the big city.  Here is a glimpse of what Sheridan, Wyoming, and the Bighorn Mountains have to offer. With 106 million acres of Bighorn National Forest encompassing 180,000 acres of wilderness, this is an ideal place to play, and work.
