The Sheridan Inn opened in May of 1893 at what is now 5th Street and Broadway, Sheridan, Wyoming. After the Inn was built, Buffalo Bill Cody leased the building interior. He also hired his Wild West Show performers from the front porch. In 1964 it was given the designation by the National Park Service, and is one of the 17 National Historic Landmarks in Wyoming.

Neltje, fka Neltje Kings, a previous owner, said, "Its (the Sheridan Inns) importance is more than the fact that Buffalo Bill, or any one man slept there. It is our heritage, a symbol of the people who believed in America, believed enough to move West to create a life in the wilderness. They, their spirit, built the Inn and made it a meeting place that became the center of the community." Neltje 1965.

The unique architecture has been documented in the Historic American Buildings Survey. The plans are on file at the library of Congress. In 1949 it was named in Ripley's Believe it or Not, "House of 69 Gables." The Sheridan Heritage Center Inc. was the 1994 recipient of Wyoming's Historical Society Maurine Carley Memorial Award for Historic Preservation. The Inn is also one of three sites in Wyoming named to the Save American Treasures project.
