About Blackwater Creek Ranch

Imagine waking up to a scene that left even presidents speechless: majestic Wyoming mountains, the Shoshone River whispering secrets, and Blackwater Creek gurgling a welcome song. This isn't a dream; it's Blackwater Creek Ranch, your gateway to an unforgettable adventure.

Step back in time at this historic dude ranch, just 15 miles east of Yellowstone National Park's East Entrance. Forget the hassle of planning – Blackwater Creek Ranch offers all-inclusive stays, perfect for a relaxing 3-night getaway or a more in-depth 6-night adventure.


Your home away from home will be a charming log cabin nestled amongst towering trees. Built between 1915 and the 1950s, these cabins offer rustic comfort with private bathrooms, and some even have multiple bedrooms, making them ideal for families or groups.

Blackwater Creek Ranch goes beyond just lodging. Immerse yourself in classic dude ranch experiences: explore the Wyoming wilderness on horseback, test your aim with archery and sport shooting, or simply hike and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Evenings come alive with special events and starlit entertainment under the vast Wyoming sky.

Food is a cornerstone of any dude ranch experience, and Blackwater Creek Ranch doesn't disappoint. Savor a taste of Wyoming with locally inspired dishes and traditional ranch fare. From hearty breakfasts in the expansive lodge to cookouts under the stars and campfire dinners, your taste buds will thank you.

But the adventure doesn't stop at the ranch gates. Cast a line and fish for trout in the Shoshone River or Blackwater Creek. Explore the wonders of Yellowstone National Park, America's first national park, or delve into the history of the first National Forest. The charming cowboy town of Cody, Wyoming, is also a short trip away, offering a glimpse into the Wild West.

Blackwater Creek Ranch caters to families as well! Kids will love learning about ranch life, exploring the wilderness, and participating in fun activities. For an extra layer of excitement, enjoy these activities. You will embark on a thrilling whitewater rafting adventure when you choose a 3-night stay (Sunday-Wednesday). For a 3-night stay (Wednesday-Saturday) from June to August, experience the heart of Cody with a delicious steak dinner followed by an evening at the legendary Cody Nite Rodeo. For a 3-night stay (Wednesday-Saturday) in May and September offers a charming alternative to explore the town of Cody at your own pace. Looking for an ample adventure? Opt for the 6-night stay and experience it all: whitewater rafting, a trip to Cody, and an unforgettable tour of Yellowstone National Park!

Disconnect from the constant buzz of everyday life (although WiFi is available in cabins and public areas) and embrace the peace of this all-inclusive escape. Relax by the pool and hot tub, unwind in the rec room, or simply soak in the breathtaking scenery. Blackwater Creek Ranch offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature, family, and the spirit of adventure.
