The Land
Located on the outskirts of Cody, Wyoming, TAC is situated in the foothills of Wyoming’s Absaroka Range. Our facility is the perfect environment for your time of rest and prayer, or for spiritual, corporate or family retreat.
​
Dining and social gatherings are hosted in the warm atmosphere of the Grime's Main Lodge, the main house, enhanced by the panoramic views of the surrounding mountains in the northwest corner of the Bighorn Basin. TAC is situated at the heart of a 350-acre tract of the northwest Wyoming steppe, providing plenty of open space to relax, restore your spirit, and renew who you are. The hiking hill displays the 1,000 of acres of preserved land resting around property.

TAC has nearly 3/4 of an acre of xeric gardens featuring more than 100 varieties of water-wise and native plants and shrubs.

The Community
Sitting directly across from the Yellowstone Regional Airport (COD), TAC is right at the heart of Cody only five minutes from a grocery store and ten minutes from the western adventures of downtown Cody, WY.
However, holding the essence of Wyoming's peace and open land is an essential part of the center’s quest. TAC backs up to just over 10 million acres of preserved, public land that allows for the views along each cultivated trail to fully immerse a visitor in the wilds of Wyoming terrain, from inside an intentional path of contemplation.
The Park
Just 52 miles from Yellowstone National Park's East Entrance, TAC is a direct route into one of the most visited national parks in the world. From wild animals, thermal activity including the infamous Old Faithful, Yellowstone Falls and outdoor adventures for every season, this park is a go-to for many TAC guests throughout the year.
