Unlike any other destination in the country - no less the world - the rugged landscape of Montana is a place of uncompromising beauty. The Ranch at Rock Creek, located within driving distance of both Missoula and Butte international airports, boasts an ideal combination of access and isolation, providing a true wilderness getaway with the luxury of refined resort amenities. Adjacent to Deer Lodge National Forest, the property itself comprises over 6,600 acres of land, through which six miles of river run, and the peaks of the John Long Mountains tower majestically around it all. Three types of accommodations are offered at The Ranch at Rock Creek. The Granite Lodge, a central point at the resort, houses luxurious guest rooms and suites that enjoy the convenience of in-suite amenities such as The Great Room and Silver Dollar Saloon. Private homes are available for those seeking more privacy and spaciousness while still being within easy access of the main lodge, and the Canvas Cabins are truly embraced with the environment, designed as luxury tent structures that bring glam to "camping."

An absolutely stunning place with views filling the heart and experience filling the soul. That have been the exceptional few days. The staff were not only incredibly friendly but so knowledgeable and accommodating on every possible level. The smells of freshly baked cookies/ pastries and freshly made coffee every morning. The ginger shots were a hit, too! Divine food paired with exceptional wine and ciders always served with warmth coming from beautifully decorated fireplaces in the background. The chefs kept absolutely outperforming themselves. Every corner of the place was decorated with taste and functionality. The activities were so well planned / professionally guided with high quality gear and equipment. We did rifles, pistols, archery, clay shooting. Kids loved fat tire biking and horseback riding. The views of creek, trees, wildlife, nature - absolute heartwarming. Loved the house we stayed in - The Bear. Kids were so entertained with ginger bread decorating, photography class and so pleased with all the gifts they received. Entire family loved the turkey trot run! With food and warm drinks served. All us wearing gifted shirts. The family enjoyed a full day of skiing. We were super entertained with bowling, karaoke night, and line dancing! We took so many pictures! The ranch store, the spa, the hicking, the utv rides, the biking around, the private jacuzzi. There was so many things we had a chance to do! We even got lounches to go and a ride to / from the airport with fully stacked "snack bar" and freshly made cookies .... We left with a happy heart!!! Highly recommend!

We stayed at the Bear house with our family. The experience we had at this Ranch was nothing less than spectacular in every way! The most noteworthy accolade should go to the attentive/courteous/helpful/knowledgeable staff that was there to take care of our every need, always greeting you with a smile and an offer to assist you in any way they could. This trip was full of "firsts" for our family. From shooting, to horseback riding, to skiing, dining and beyond! The food and drinks were top notch and the friendly servers were there to take care of our every need with a smile. Simply stated, it's hard to put into words the remarkable time that we had at this ranch, but if a picture can say a thousand words, I can tell you that our family took more pictures during this trip than at all our other getaways combined! We hope that we can be lucky enough to return back here again sooner than later. If your family is considering a trip here, don't think twice about it! Until next time.....Happy Trails!

This was an absolute dream of a getaway. From the accommodations, food, staff, variety of unique activities and natural beauty you won’t regret booking a stay. At first you may not realize how much is included in this all inclusive-it’s above standard. My favorite activity was capturing the resort, wild life and natures fall beauty. The wranglers were so awesome-horse back riding through the mountains was equally thrilling. UTV rides through out the property and then there’s the spa. Erika was wonderful. With staffing issues at many places that is not the case here. They are friendly knowledgeable and go the extra mile. From Claire ( picked us up from Missoula) to Candace at the front desk I could go on and on because they all contributed to the experience.

This was one of the best vacations we ever went on! We stayed in the wrangler cabin, and it was perfect. The property is stunning and there is so many activities to do for all ages. Everything about this place is pure luxury and the staff goes above and beyond! They take care of every little detail from the moment you touch down in the airport to the moment you leave. The food is one of the best parts about the stay. We were blown away by the quality and variety! Every meal is entirely different and all delicious. Cannot recommend this place enough!

We recently had another fantastic stay at The Ranch at Rock Creek, and somehow, it just keeps getting better. We’ve been fortunate enough to visit several times now, across different seasons, and each experience has been uniquely special. The setting is simply breathtaking—wide-open spaces, a clear, rocky river running through it (hence the name “Rock Creek”!), and stunning mountain views. But what really sets it apart is how perfectly they balance luxury with that cozy, rustic vibe. Everything, from the beautifully designed cabins to the guided activities, was just perfect. The activities are a big part of why we love it so much. Our kids, aged 8, 11, and 12, couldn’t get enough of the horseback riding. The guides were incredibly friendly and made sure everyone felt safe, even when we had a close encounter with a massive moose! Fly fishing was another highlight—we’re total beginners, but the instructors were patient and helped us catch some fish. We also had a blast with archery, shooting, and I even managed to squeeze in a relaxing visit to the spa, which was awesome. One of the best things about The Ranch is the staff. They’re some of the warmest, most attentive people we’ve ever met in all our travels. From the moment we arrived, they were completely focused on making sure everything was perfect. And we can’t forget Chef Josh! He’s been there for years, and the food is always a highlight. We always look forward to his incredible meals. The kids loved the Rangers Club too—it was a hit with them, and it gave my wife and me the chance to enjoy a great dinner alone. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

An incredible stay...The Ranch at Rock Creek is such a magical place! The service was outstanding, the staff was unbelievably welcoming and helpful - it seemed like there was not a request they couldn't meet. The food was first class, the accommodations were decorated to perfection and the wealth of activities left nothing to be desired.
