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.
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.
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.
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!

The experience is a bit like camping. The staff is really nice. I would recommend booking a cabin if you want your own bathroom.
It might not be for everyone, but I truly loved it. I stayed in a covered wagon, and early in the morning I heard the workers feeding the horses — it brought back memories of childhood, waking up to the quiet voices of my mother and grandmother talking over coffee at the kitchen table. That peaceful, simple start to the day felt so familiar and comforting. The bathroom wasn’t exactly close by, which might be a dealbreaker for some, but for me, the whole experience was totally worth it.
The staff was very helpful ! There was an issue with our original booking and they made it right with an actual upgrade ( we had to pay more ) but they gave us a great discount .The place could be so much more .We enjoyed the Western theme but wish it could’ve been more modern ie:the WiFi was impossible we always had to go closer to the office to get it which made it hard to plan your day the night before .

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 !

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

Like camping but teepees are close together...so fairly noisy. Also cold and the teepees are not on platforms like they say. I'm glad it didn't rain while we were there because it would have been a mess. But it's camping and it's close to Tetons. Also has a cafe on site.
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.
The bathhouse was a mess, with the men's and women's in the same budling and no locking door between them. It did not feel safe for the women. The guest Tipi's had been taken down for the winter and were thrown about in the bathhouse. The restaurant was full of flies, a cat and a dog. The cows outside gave a western nuance, however they were able to access the area the conestoga wagons were located. They spread feces on the walking path and rubbed up against the wagon we were sleeping in around 2:00 am. The view of the mountains was amazing but the facility itself needs some serious attention.
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.
