10/10 Exceptional

So fun and great staff!
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed in a wagon which was fun but quite cold even with the heater on. The communal bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner, but the customer service there was excellent.

excellent accommodation and superb scenery
Oleh, 1-night trip

It’s good for two nights. Staff is friendly. Wagon is better than tepee.
Svitlana, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Such a unique stay, we were upgraded from the teepee to the covered wagon for electricity, it also had a heater but we didn’t need - it got chilly but the blankets were warm enough. Had a good dinner with drinks at the onsite restaurant, very convenient! We were up and going too early to grab coffee.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was in interesting experience. I had never slept in a teepee before. However, it wasn't much different from sleeping in a tent. Be sure to bring your sleeping bags and pillows. The scenery is beautiful!
Eddie, 1-night trip

Loved it. Great staff. Fun lodging. Good food.
Thomas, 1-night trip

we had driven from Ohio and were pretty tired upon arrival but had a nice meal and was able to book another night so we were able to enjoy hiking before leaving and finding a campsite. very nice staff.

Love the location and views, wish the bathrooms were bigger, more available stalls/ showers. But overall, this is a favorite spot!
Rochelle, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Amazing view, the price was good. I like camping so i liked it, my wife not so much.
Gary, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The experience is a bit like camping. The staff is really nice. I would recommend booking a cabin if you want your own bathroom.
Guillaume, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

Beautiful location. Tipi and covered wagon facilities dirty and inadequate
Leonie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The sweetest stuff ever ! My kids enjoyed horses and goats. Absolutely beautiful view in the morning. Overall nice experience but the wagons should be swept… that is my only complaint. The bathrooms were clean and heated !
Joanna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed in the covered wagons which was a very unique experience. The location is beautiful and watching the ranch hands bring the horses to and from their evening pasture was a great experience. However, be ready to bring your own bedding or pay extra to rent bedding. The shower/bathroom amenities could do with some improvements. Either eat before you arrive or be prepared to pay a 20% gratitude for everything ordered at the cafe, even though you are ordering from counter and not at your table. There is nothing notifying you of this charge until you get your bill.

A great Ranch experience

It was a ranch and the kids loved it! Horses goats dogs. The staff was great with my grandkids. If you’re looking for a luxury resort this isn’t the place for you but for us it was probably the highlight of our 2 week trip through Yellowstone the Tetons and Rapid City. We would definitely return
Donald, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a fun unique experience! The bunk beds were perfect for my kids. We loved seeing the horses on the ranch, and the view of the Tetons was gorgeous! Things I didn’t like was the mattress and pillow were very thin and our sheets had a bunch of sand in them. I did appreciate that they provided a space heater.

simple and clean
Chicha, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Rustic accommodations in the teepee was expected but the men’s bathrooms looked like a crime scene the entire 12 hours we were there. Standing water everywhere from bathers and the toilet was either backed up or had exploded feces everywhere so I never used it. Ladies at front desk were nice and dinner in. Restaurant property was decent enough.
Brian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The beds are comfy for kids, punishing for adults. Bring a sleeping bag and air mattress for over the bed and you should be okay. The teepees are there to corral more customers for the trail and pony rides. If the kids do one of these, they will want to come again every year. Also, don’t expect cleanliness. And, do expect mediocre food at the restaurant for about $30 pp. And, the view of the Tetons from the teepees is breathtaking.
Steven, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

it is what it is. If you come expecting a 5-star hotel, it is not. A bit expensive for what they include, but we enjoyed our stay despite the noise late and early. You cannot blame the ranch for people being noisy at 4am!! they do ask for quiet time. The beds have seen better days, but the linens were perfectly clean. You have to make your own bed though! It was funny a lady knocking in our wagon for housekeeping... well, maybe they wanted us out faster than we wanted to. The bathrooms could use a serious upgrade, but they were fairly clean. Again, one cannot control what other guests do in a shared space.
Carolina, 1-night trip

Enjoyed our very basic stay in the tipi

A very basic tipi, and as advertised. 4 beds with thin mattresses, but as we were just 2 people, we simply doubled up the mattresses and slept fine. We were given bed sheets, towels and thin red blankets (see pictures), but used our own thick blue sleeping bags and pillows as those were not provided. The tipi was older, had some tears and spots, and although the "door"flap didn't close during a severe rainfall and the few drops landing on our faces, it was fun being there. The bathroom facility was cleaner than expected, with toilet paper, lockers, benches, 2 showers (the 3rd was out of order) and two sinks, however no plug ins anywhere to be found. Beautiful views of the valley, the restaurant was very nicely decorated and the food very good and quick to the table. There were activities for horseback riding and river floating available. Friendly staff and all, including guests, seemed to enjoy themselves. We had a great back-to-basic stay!
Maria, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It really depends on your expectations. If you expect a camping sort of experience, you will enjoy it. The location is gorgeous, but the bathrooms are pretty bad. But there was hot water, and the linens that you rent include blankets and towels. There was a hornet in our wagon, but the staff came quickly to deal with it.
Amanda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Makenzie at the front desk was amazing and very helpful. The property was overcrowded and parking was non existent. Blankets didnt cover our feet and we could not get the heater to work as the writing had worn off. We had a very cold night. The zipper on our external door didnt zip across the bottom. Good idea poorly executed.
Joel, 1-night trip

Great experience for our 4 kids in the covered wagon. Quick stay, great location to get into the Tetons quick and avoid the crowds.

Works in a pinch

It’s a dude ranch. No frills amenities that is a more costly style of camping. Canvas and zippers on covered wagon in a state of disrepair which made it more difficult to enter/exit. Bathrooms not as dirty as other reviews suggested…they are sufficient camp bathrooms with showers. Beautiful views and close to Grand Teton National Park. Other reviews about the restaurant are spot on. Staffing issues delayed restaurant opening on the morning we departed and couldn’t even get a cup of coffee because there wasn’t a way to ring it up. Three complimentary coffees wouldn’t have broke their bank but oh well.
