The History of Butterfly Lodge
Butterfly Lodge was built in 1913 and occupied in 1914. The log cabin's name "Apuni Oyis" in Blackfeet was inspired by the countless butterflies in the meadows surrounding the cabin. It was built by John Butler for James W. Schultz as his hunting cabin, and later was the home of his son, Hart M. Schultz aka Lone Wolf.
The lodge housed two colorful careers, the father's fashioned in words, and the son’s in painted images and sculptures of the West, both of which found inspiration from this little cabin and it’s surroundings.
We invite you to walk through our site, enjoy reading the history of these two talented men, see pictures and check out our calendar of events for this summer season!
Make plans to visit Greer and step back in time through this 100+ year old log cabin, with it’s original floors, windows, fireplace and many artifacts of James Schultz, Lone Wolf and his bride Naomah.
MISSION STATEMENT
"Educating the present and
Protecting the future by
Preserving the past."
