We stayed in a teepee, the views were excellent, and the staff did their job - this is a no frills place - nothing wrong with it - mostly average, except... the location is amazing, the price is good for the area, and the bathrooms were clean and easy to access.

A very unique experience. I was upgraded to a wagon from a teepee to my surprise. The stay included bedding, towels, heat, lights and electric outlets. Very cozy and an amazing view of the Tetons!

The wagons were fun to stay in and the views were heavenly. They could do a little fixing up with stairs and such. Biggest complaint was the men’s restroom. It was disgusting and so dirty.

We stayed one night in the tipi. They provide sheets, but no pillow or blanket. This was expected, so we had prepared. The bathrooms are in desperate need of cleaning and upgrades. But the staff was friendly and I got to pet horses. Overall it was a good stay. It is also a great location with a lovely view.

We stayed at Buffalo valley ranch in a nice wagon. It was a very unique experience and was close to a national park. It was next to a river that had a beautiful mountain and river view. We will stay again.

It was such a lovely stay in the wagon. Location was great, in the middle of Grand Teton and Yellowstone NP. The cafe right next to it had great food too. Overall, I’d stay here again when I return to this beautiful city!

You get what you pay for when you stay in the teepee. Basically a place to sleep at night. It's a bare,gravel floor and a huge bug spent some time with us, but I thought the cot was OK and the view beautiful. The horse run in the morning was also very cool. I wouldn't do again, but may be fun for a younger family. Bring a sleeping bag, as it gets cold at night in August.

The tipi views were so beautiful. I loved staying at a dude ranch, though I did not take any excursions. The lodge was cozy and nice place to unwind and meet fellow travelers. The on-site Cafe has friendly staff and good food. I really liked the Bison burger.

We stayed in a Tepee. It rained prior to our arrival and the beds were wet. The platform for the thin mattress was quite uncomfortable. We made the best of it and had a blast. It was unique to stay in a Tepee and the view of the Tetons was magnificent in the morning when we got up.

Our wagon was clean. The bathrooms were adequate.liked how everything was in a bag packed for us. The was a small hole in the wagons canvas that dripped on floor, but not on bed. Sleeping in a covered wagon was a kool experience in it self. Glad we did it. The cafe serves generous portions. We split meals and were happy. I would recommend trying this especially if you have children. They would love it.

This is a working ranch! The wagon (where we stayed), the bathrooms, and the property are exactly what you would expect out of a working horse ranch! If you are expecting 5 star hotel experience this is not for you. If you like to camp, want an amazing view, unmatched access to the park, and love an adventure…this is for you!

It was my first dude ranch visit. I only went there to sleep the night and cannot comment on the activities. They did look like fun. The rates - which exclude linen - were on the high side.

The Tippi we had yesterday is acceptable. However, night in august is too cold for a tent experience. Also, if rains, the tent is not water proof and the rain will dripping down from the top. We arrived just after a shower so the twin bed is wet. The bed is not comfortable with just a thin layer of plastic mattress. The public bathroom is fine and quite clean though. I would say if you want to sleep comfortably, this is not what you should look for.

This place was great considering location and price. I think a lot of people are expecting hotel level experiences but I thought it was great. Definitely go into it with the mindset of camping. We brought our own sleeping bags, pillows, and blankets. We stayed in the wagon and I definitely recommend that over the teepee, definitely worth the money. We were warm all night but you could also bring and plug in a space heater. Bathrooms were in good conditions. I wore shower sandals. Was it a little dusty, yes but nothing too bad. There were a couple of holes in the wagon but it didn’t affect us even though it was a little rainy. You could bring ductape if you are worried about it. WiFi worked great. Overall it was a good experience and I would stay here again.

We stayed in one of the wagons, which was a unique experience...one we would do again. Showers weren't the best, but it is a working ranch. Food at the cafe was pretty good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Whilst we were there it rained overnight, but we weren't worried about rain getting into the wagon, and in point of fact - it was so relaxing listening to the rain on the wagon's canopy. Overall, we would recommend this unique experience!

Loved staying here and can't wait to come back again. Check in and check out staff were very nice and easy to talk to. Even though I live in Wyoming, waking up to the horses being wrangled was amazing! Beautiful area to look and explore! Shared bathrooms were overall clean and maintained. Offering one more bathroom would be helpful, mornings were a bit congested but I have been to facilities that it was much worse. Overall great experience for the whole family and recommended it to friends right after we left!

The view was absolutely gorgeous and the location couldn’t have been better, but I was very disappointed by the wagon stay. The bathhouse held three bathrooms/ showers that looked like they had never been cleaned. The zipper on the wagon was broken and so much cold air got in at night. Also there was a huge truck full of horse poop that was maybe ten feet away from the wagons. The staff was very nice and every time I called I was met with such kindness.
