SK Ranch
is a year-round
black angus cattle ranch and grain producer
located where the sunlit prairies meet
the Rocky Mountain Front
under Montana's
Big Sky.

SK Ranch is a real, working ranch...
we are not a dude ranch nor are we a  flashy resort.
We include you during our every day work and leisure time.  Below you will find the details of what we offer and how you can customize your stay with us.

We proudly serve home-cooked meals with lots of our own ranch-raised beef, home-grown vegetables and made-from-scratch desserts!  You can expect real ranch specialties such as Dutch-oven cooking, Rocky Mountain Oysters and an all-out steak dinner.  You tell us what your drink and snack preferences are and we'll be sure to have plenty on hand.  Special accomodations are available for those with dietary restrictions.

Ammenities:
The main ranch house has free local and long distance phone and fax service, as well as dial-up Internet.

There's a comfortable sitting room with satellite TV, a small library, games, puzzles and a full cookie jar!

Don't forget about our outdoor fireplace...it's a great way to spend the evening swapping stories while listening to the night sounds of the prairie.

Activities and Excursions:
When you stay at our ranch, you are considered part of our family...and part of our labor force!  You are welcome to participate in as much or as little of our daily lives as you'd like.  If you are content to sit in the shade sipping iced tea while watching the wildlife and listening to the sounds of the great outdoors, that is perfectly acceptable with us.  However, there's always plenty of work to be done and if you have a mind to fix fence, round-up cattle, clean barns, help with branding or any of the other daily activities on our ranch, we can put you to work.

Be sure to ask about our natural horsemanship clinics and training sessions.

As mentioned above, part of your itinerary includes a one-day excursion to a local area of interest.  Popular destinations include Glacier National Park, Two Medicine Dinosaur Center, Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center, C.M. Russell Art Museum and Museum of the Plains Indian.

Please note that excursions have a 75-mile limit and do not include an overnight stay at your destination.

Pets:
If you have a pet, we can accomodate a cat or dog in a secure area of our barn.  We don't allow pets in the cabin or main ranch house, but they are welcome to stay with you in the wall tent.

Bring your own horse!  Call us to discuss how you can participate in our real ranch vacations with your own horse.

Note:  you'll have to bring current paperwork regarding your animal's health.

Itinerary:
Please make arrangements to arrive at our ranch on Sunday afternoon or evening.  We will prepare you a light supper, then send you to bed for a good night's rest since we will get started with ranch activities early on Monday.  After a great week of working, playing and relaxing, we will celebrate our time together with an all-out steak dinner on Friday night.  Your departure should be scheduled for Saturday, but not so early that you can't enjoy a final breakfast with us.

During your stay, all of the day-to-day ranch activities are included.  We also include a one-day excursion (explained below) with transportation to and from your choice of destination.
