There is abundant recreational opportunities (and no crowds!) in this quiet and remote part of Northwest Montana. From hiking and biking and beautiful clean rivers and lakes, to world class rock climbing around Lake Koocanusa and Montana's best golf courses near by. BUT, there's no reason to leave the ranch, there is so much to do (or not do) =) right here.
On site you'll find a beautiful community kitchen with all the equipment you need, and showers and bathrooms. (There is no toilet/kitchen in any of our units.)

Guests are also welcome to use the new and modern Base Camp building.
We're so Northwest that we're almost Canada. And we are called the Last Best Place because of our unspoiled nature, abundant wildlife, solitude and brilliant night skies.
