Yanceys (also known as Pleasant Valley) is an unincorporated community in Yellowstone National Park in Park County, Wyoming, United States. In 1882, "Uncle" John Yancey, established a remote mail station and hotel in this area for the benefit of tourists traveling in the northern part of the park. John F. Yancey died in 1903 and his heirs ran the hotel until 1905 when it was abandoned. No buildings remain in Pleasant Valley today.
