Sweetgrass Ranch Montana to book Tel : 01798 865946
This property is a working guest and cattle ranch secluded in the Crazy Mountains of south central Montana, 40 miles from Big Timber. The ranch encompasses both mountain and rolling foothill country where they raise Angus cattle and horses. Timothy meadows and clear, sparkling creeks enable deer, antelope, elk, bear, mountain lions, coyotes, mountain goats and an occasional wolf to call this home. They are privileged to ride across several neighbours ground as well as their own land, there are countless miles of riding available. Guests are welcome to take an active a part as they like in all phases of ranch life from feeding pigs to moving cows and wrangling horses. The cabins nestle alongside the Creek so you can hear the babbling water in the morning and evening, along with owls and coyotes. Accommodation ranges from small rustic log cabins without bath to rooms in the main ranch house to larger, framed family cabins with private baths and plenty of hot water. They have a three-week rotating menu so you will get a varied taste of ranch cooking, specializing in tender ranch beef, garden fresh vegetables, fresh cream and home baked breads and pastries. All three meals a day are served family style. There's a small, coin-operated laundry, credit card guest phone in the main house, mail pickup and delivery, a ranch fax machine and a small honour-system store. If you are interested in working with horses of any age, they offer a great opportunity. There are cattle to check, salt, doctor and move as grass and water dictate. They also have a grazing lease in the lower rolling country by Big Timber and ride there to check on cattle and fences.
