If you come for dinner bring your appetite , particularly on Friday and Saturday nights , when prime rib is offered . There is a variety of hand-cut , fresh steaks offered in-season , including the aforementioned bison tomahawk , or the popular “ Hulett Landing Strip ,” which is a New York strip steak . Or , perhaps the Rancher Ribeye is more your speed . You can also try the bison ravioli or walleye or maybe catch a weekly special that may feature duck , elk or yak .
You get the idea — you won ’ t go hungry , and you won ’ t have a lack of choices .
There is also “ every drink under the sun ,” Turner says , and there are monthly drink features .
The Neiman family continues its commitment to the area with a ranch-to-table partnership with Durham Ranch in nearby Wright , Wyo .; a third-generation family ranch . It ’ s one of the largest bison ranches in North America , which supplies the 77 Steakhouse & Saloon with natural and sustainable bison .
Need a place to host a business meeting or company party ? Look no further . The 77 Steakhouse Saloon stands ready to assist you with its Tower View room which — you guessed it — offers a stunning view of Devils Tower for those at your private party . For the smaller parties there is the Cowboys Den , and there is also an elevated patio that overlooks the golf course that is even heated .
With an unmatched view of The Golf Club at Devils Tower golf course and a picturesque Wyoming landscape the patio views can only be beaten by the service . This unmatched facility and patio knows no equal and is a must-stop destination . Wildlife can be spotted often from the patio .
The design of the clubhouse was intended to celebrate the rich history of the area . With the project being designed around an 1890s bar , the western architectural style harmoniously ties together the interior artifacts with charm of the exterior . Separating the breezeway from the grill with a sliding glass wall allows the facility to expand from 60 patrons to 200 . The bar area anchors the clubhouse main level , with an elevated outdoor deck , while overlooking a fire pit , and the 10th and 18th holes .
The largest building material component of the clubhouse also happens to be its most sustainable and environmentally responsive element . The local sawmill in Hulett supports the majority of the population ( 383 ) in Hulett . One primary focus of the mill is the harvest and milling of Ponderosa Pine . The majority of the clubhouse is constructed of wood framing and majority of these wooden elements were harvested and milled locally . The local material and detail within the material is most visible in the exterior siding , ceilings , breezeway flooring , and the wrap around covered porches .
Anyone interested in hosting a private party at the facility can go to the facility ’ s website at devilstowergolf . com to find more information and fill our a form to get started .
Chances are if someone else is having a private party at the facility the Neimans are entertaining their guests through a concert or a holiday party , as local artists perform at the steakhouse , and chef Shaffer and and food and beverage manager Brandi Wagner concoct special menus for St . Patrick ’ s Day , Mother ’ s Day , Easter and other holidays .
On Valentine ’ s Day , couples can rent one of three cabins on the property , or one of the eight bunkhouse rooms and make a night of it . On some evenings , the steakhouse and saloon hosts special evens such a a murder mystery night or a paint and sip class , where participants can drink wine will they paint along with a local artist .
