If you're looking for the best horseback riding vacation available in northwest Montana visit Laughing Water Guest Ranch. Our setting in the Rocky Mountains of Northwest Montana, near Glacier National Park provides the perfect backdrop for a superb and affordable vacation. "Your" National Forest land surrounds our ranch. Come let us help you discover the unique beauty and secrets of this mountain country.
We have very affordable Cattle Drive overnight vacations for the adults and singles in May and September. For those who aren't sure about doing the camp out and want to bunk in their own bed here at the Ranch, we have a one-day Cattle Roundup and branding as part of your week long vacation package.
For the family, we’ll saddle you up for a very special Montana guest ranch experience.
We have a trail system that will take you on horse rides among the peaks of the Rocky Mountains. We have the perfect horse for every member of your family. Come horseback ride with us in Marlboro country!
Our ranch kids program is unique among Montana dude ranches. Your children will be part of the Laughing Water 7th Cavalry or our own honorary Northern Cheyenne tribe in our Native Americans program. They can fish, camp, feed and bond with their horse, explore and enjoy the West with youthful enthusiasm just like you may have when you were a kid!
Check out our dude ranch webcam - the first webcam installed at the corrals of a western guest ranch! During the winter holidays you may spot something special. During the summer you can see the morning saddle up and horse instruction even if you're not there, or better yet, tell your friends to watch for you on a certain day while you're down at the corrals saddling up for the day's ride. In case you need it, our Dude Ranch has Internet Access in the Lodge.
You can check our activities pages for more details about your Montana adventure. In July and August you will get to enjoy a white water raft trip in Glacier National Park. Learn more about those who will welcome you, about our ranch, and the horses on the ranch information pages. Then E-mail us or give us a call to get started planning your Montana vacation adventure.
