Ranger
Creek Guest Ranch 
The
Ranger Creek Guest Ranch, overlooking Shell Canyon, is deep within the
Bighorn National Forest. Guest packages are offered as a three
or six night stay from June 15th through September 15th. Horseback
Riding is our main activity for guests who have come from all over the
world to enjoy the charm and western hospitality Ranger Creek has to
offer. Trail rides directly out of the Ranch explore the Bighorn
National Forest and Cloud Peak Wilderness Area's, which offer spectacular
views, and numerous opportunities for photography and wildlife viewing.
Guests may also enjoy a trip to Cody, Wyoming, the Buffalo Bill Historical
Center and the Cody Nite Rodeo. 
In
addition to our regular ranch activities, guests also have the option
of arranging a guided tour for visiting many of the historical sites
near the Ranch. Or for the adventurous, get ready for whitewater
rafting or just floating down the beautiful Yellowstone River or Shoshoni
River.
Make
the Ranger Creek Guest Ranch your destination for your snowmobile outing!
The
Ranger Creek historic log lodge and cabins provide a unique snowmobiling
experience for all. Plenty of good cooking, sledding for kids and
more awaits you at Ranger Creek. Located on the P Trail, Ranger
Creek is a central location for easy access to the lodge loop in the
north and the lodges in the south. Since Ranger Creek sits in a
more secluded area of the mountain, many guests prefer the less hectic
atmosphere created here. In addition, this area provides for less
traveled trails and untouched meadows to play in.
To
get to the Ranger Creek in the winter requires over-snow travel for
four miles. If you have your own snowmobile we can meet you and escort
you, along with your gear, to the Ranch. Or, if you need to rent
a snowmobile, we can help.
