Ranch at Ucross

What a fabulous place to relax and unwind after a long coach trip out of Yellowstone. Only regret being we only had one night here and not two. Such a stunning location with views of rolling fields and horses out our room balcony. Loved the natural wetlands as we drove into the Ranch which offered a wonderful sanctuary for the bird-life. A little slice of heaven and did I mention the food ... absolutely yummy.

Beautiful setting we just didn’t have enough time to take full advantage of the facilities. However I did get some nice photos. The facility apparently was previously used as a company’s retreat for employees. I bet it provided a beautiful and productive site for thinking about what comes next!

This was a multigenerational stay at Ucross which is important to note because there was something for everyone. The owners (? I think) were the best, so friendly, informative and accommodating. The rooms are huge, and while we had two people per room, they would have been big enough for four. The room itself was clean, but the garbage from the previous occupants was still in both trash cans, which was kind of gross but fine. There were cats/dogs for the kids to play with, other animals to see, fishing for whoever wanted to fish, swimming for whoever wanted to swim (water was very warm), and hot tubs to enjoy. The food at dinner and breakfast was a solid good, and the bar was enjoyed by the adults in the party. After dinner, we were set up with a much appreciated camp fire and smores, which made the evening really special for all. The main downside was that we only had one night there, each of us commented we wished we could stay longer. We would definitely go back.

The site is beautiful but the level of service is very low. We learnt only a few days before checking in that we could not stay 3 nights but only 2 although we had made a reservation through ******* several weeks before... We were also very disappointed that horse riding was almost not possible, and that the swimming pool was available only a few hours a day. The same dinner was served two days in a row. There is not even a laundry service on site. All of this is very disappointing regarding the high price we paid (600 dollars/ night). It seems that Ranch at Ucrosss is focused on groups more than individuals (every night a bus was coming to fill in the ranch and all activities are planned according to this bus). Furthermore, the staff was most of the time not helpful at all. We said several times that we were not satisfied and there was absolutely no reaction from the ranch managers. We were also surprised that our bank account was debited for the price of 2 nights even before we arrived in the ranch.

This is Not a dude ranch. It is a tired group of bungalows in need of renovation located in a large field. What dude ranch has almost no activities and only a few horses? My group was also treated very poorly by the owners while they provided preferential treatment to their repeat large tour bus group. The buffet dinner was in line with the hotel-lousy! This is not a dude ranch experience in the West. Needs a lot of renovation, activities and much more courteous owners!

We had this stop on a group tour. We were delighted with the real ranch setting. Our rooms overlooked a horse filled corral. Our bartender served the most delicious Wyoming Mule drink, our buffet was delicious and the branding experience was quite informative. The scenery surrounding the area was breathtaking and our hosts couldn't be more accommodating. Don't hesitate to stop here -- you won't be disappointed!
