The Ranch at Rock Creek


Set among ten square of miles of rugged Montana ranchland lies The Ranch at Rock Creek—a luxury guest ranch that brings together wide open spaces and upscale amenities like never before. Exceptional wild trout fishing on pristine Rock Creek and trail rides among wildflower meadows are just two of dozens of on-property
activities, while outstanding cuisine, spa treatments, and stunning accommodations await guests at day’s end. Families, couples and friends will discover that The Ranch at Rock Creek is a place that offers the feel of the ‘true West’ without sacrificing true comfort.

It is situated at 5100 feet above sea level, just west of the Continental Divide.
It lies in one of the most remote parts of the Northern Rocky Mountains, in theRock Creek watershed, famous for its pristine aquatic habitatand abundant wildlife.
The nearest larger population center to the northwest is Missoula, about 1.3 hours by car, and Butte is approximately 1 hour southeast of The Ranch. Philipsburg, a small former mining town, is just 25 minutes from The Ranch. Even for Montana, the land that surrounds The Ranch is untraveled. Much of it remains unchanged over the past several decades, offering the sort of peace and quiet that is practically unattainable in the modern world.

Like everything at The Ranch at Rock Creek, Activities are designed with your
individual tastes, preferences, and needs in mind. Everything is included here, and the recreational opportunities, both on and off the ranch, are almost limitless.
On-ranch activities such as horseback riding, fishing our stocked trout ponds, hiking, wildlife watching, mountain biking, sporting clays, archery, rafting, campfires, star-gazing, and games in The Granite Lodge are always popular. Guided and self-guided trips to Philipsburg, historic mining towns, and other regional attractions are another option. Also, special events at The Ranch at Rock Creek are more than just special. This setting is outstanding for weddings, family reunions,
small corporate gatherings, providing both luxury and privacy. The Ranch’s onsite concierge staff will ensure that you can experience it all, so just let them know your interests and preferences and they will take care of the rest.

The Granite Lodge sits on a small ridge just west of Rock Creek, and like classic ranch headquarters, it’s the hub of activity at The Ranch at Rock Creek. Nine suites offer luxurious, individually-decorated accommodation options, and the great room and bar are the place for sharing tall tales before dinner. The 4-lane bowling alley, game room, and 14-foot movie screen are where most guests gather in the later evening, for a little camaraderie and competition. The dining room is located in The Lodge, and Chef Josh’s extraordinary cuisine reflects our pure surroundings —local beef, elk, bison, free-range chicken, organic eggs, resh fish, seasonal local fruits, vegetables and Ranch-grown herbs, all enhanced by an inspired wine list.
It’s our goal to offer more than just the basic comforts, and more than just a place
to stay, to ensure that your Northern Rockies experience is the perfect blend of
wilderness and comfort.
