Story rewards mountain-town living without sacrificing convenience. Set in Sheridan County along the eastern flank of the Bighorn Mountains, the community is minutes from the trailheads, streams, and wildlife of Bighorn National Forest. Anglers can tour the Story Fish Hatchery and then cast for trout in cold, clear creeks. History buffs head to the nearby Fort Phil Kearny State Historic Site for interpretive trails and views over classic high-plains country. After a day outside, locals swap stories over prime rib or pizza in cozy, family-run spots, and summer weekends bring community events like Story Days.
Families appreciate the personal feel of Story Elementary School, with small class sizes and hands-on programs; older students typically continue in Sheridan for middle and high school. Arts, shopping, and medical care are close at hand in Sheridan — home to galleries and performance spaces — while the acclaimed The Brinton Museum in nearby Big Horn adds world-class Western art to your weekend options. Housing ranges from timbered cabins under towering pines to custom builds with big-sky views, and quiet lanes make wildlife sightings and starry nights a regular part of life.
