Welcome to our historic ranch near Yellowstone Park in the majestic mountains of southwest Montana. Here Ranch guests experience all of the scenic beauty, natural wonders and recreational opportunies that abound in Yellowstone Country.

Summer is family time at the Ranch, with a typical guest load of around 70. It's a time to ride, hike, canoe, mountain bike, fly fish and for kids to taste adventure in the Outdoor Youth Adventures Program. With children back in school, the fall and winter guest capacity drops to around 50. Small enough for a relaxing environment but with enough guests to make some lifelong friends. Winter brings abundant snow, 85km of Nordic ski trails right here at the Ranch and world class downhill skiing just 6 miles away. Exploring Yellowstone Park during either season is a memorable experience. We invite you to join the growing number of guests who return year after year to their Montana home at Lone Mountain Ranch.

    Ability, Families Ride Together
  • Each ride is designed around a guest's ability level; however, if you have a special request, please let us know and we work to accommodate that. Families are welcome to ride together, but soon after the first day, the children are generally excited about becoming involved in our youth program. On your first day of arrival, please head down to the barn and visit with Lisa or any of the wranglers and get all your questions answered!

  • Pace of ride

    Walk, Trot
  • Each guest fills out a questionnaire before arrival; then on the first day we will visit with guests who feel like they have more experience and would like a faster-paced ride. We then set up a specific ride for this where we can assess each person's abilities – once you are assessed at a successful trot, you will be able to lope over specific trails. We are very safety conscious.

    Morning - 2 hours, Afternoon - 2 hours
  • Each of our ride options last approximately 2 hours and we have several throughout the morning and afternoon to choose from. We also offer 1/2 day rides into the Gallatin National Forest and all day rides into Yellowstone.

Riding Lessons

  • Details

    lessons come with package, basic riding lessons

  • Lessons given by

    wrangler

  • Lessons located

    on the trail, in the arena
  • When you arrive at Lone Mountain, please come down to the barn and get any questions answered that you may have. As per request, we offer lessons on the trail or in the arena. The majority of individuals who are interested in lessons in the arena tend to be children who would like to try their first ride in a controlled environment. We are happy to teach the basics of riding and horsemanship as well as the correct seat. We will also play games on horseback with children to keep them entertained while working on particular skills and getting them comfortable with their horse. If an individual is interested in increasing his/her skill level we're happy to take the lesson one step further - for instance to teach steady hands, proper seat, leg pressure or how to sit the trot as well as the rhythm of the lope. We prefer to do most lessons on the trail to maintain interest by both the rider and horse; however, are happy to stay in the arena if a guest is more comfortable there.

Pack Trips

  • Details

    specialized outfitter, overnight trips, day trips, remote

  • Extras

    We custom day and overnight horsepack trips into the Spanish Peaks and the Gallatin National Forest.

Arena Work

  • Type

    outdoor arena

  • Activities

    barrels, pole bending, rodeo
  • Each Saturday, the entire ranch(no other rides occur during this time) enjoys a children's rodeo where kids can perform and "strut their stuff" from all they've accomplished for the week. Children can run the barrels and around the poles, they can try their hand at goat tying and also show their bravery on the "barrel ride"(very safe simulation of a bull ride!). Kids really get into the barrel ride and will raise one arm in the air like a real bull rider. The staff pulls the ropes attached to the barrel and it makes them buck all over the place! Parents are of course invited to get involved with all aspects of the rodeo if they'd like to participate with their child or just sit back in awe with how proficient their child has become.

Sample Riding Itinerary

  • Although geared more toward a beginner program, experienced riders enjoy good trots and lopes through the beautiful hills. Our program affords plenty of relaxing time horseback soaking in the scenery, enjoying good conversation and the ability to experience nature in yet another way. Guests are in awe by our beauty, peacefulness and our calm, casual rides with plenty of photo opportunities. Our wranglers are versed in the history of the ranch, Yellowstone, and the surrounding areas as well as Yellowstone's ecosystem and history of the park. 

    Please contact us for a thorough schedule. Please don't forget to ask us about our winter evening sleigh ride dinners - home made soup, molasses rolls, homemade cheesecake, coffe and the best yet...prime rib.


     

Setting

  • Private Land - 250-1000 (acres)

  • Enjoy riding on our 150 private acres (the original homesteaded property from 1915) to awe-inspiring peaks of the Madison Range and various other views of spectacular mountain ranges in the distance. Our Trails are groomed and maintained by our maintenance and trails program. The back corner of the Ranch borders the Gallatin National Forest and for those who would like longer rides, we can ride there towards Beehive Basin. We also ride on private surrounding ranches so you can be assured of more acres to cover.

  • Public Land - more than 50k (acres)

  • On longer rides, we are able to ride in the Gallatin National Forest and Yellowstone National Park.

Throughout the years, food has played an important part in any Lone Mountain Ranch stay. Early on it was decided that dining at a guest ranch could and should be a stimulating culinary experience and a major step up from traditional “ranch cooking”.

All manner of dietary restrictions are personally accommodated and the options afforded our guests are frequently cited as highlight of their stay. Trailside Buffets and Sunday Brunch are also favorites of guests, locals and visitors alike.

The Ranch was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006. In 1915, Clarence Lytle homesteaded the current property as a working ranch. Under the Forest Homestead Act of 1906, a claim was 160 acres. The requirements were U.S. citizenship (single women were allowed) and the claim had to be placed in the claimants own name. The filing fee was $10, and claimants had to live on the land for five years, make improvements, and raise a crop. Because of the high elevation here, the crop was almost always wild hay.

Fred Butler, a Chicago paper mill tycoon, bought the Ranch in 1926 for $50 an acre. Butler, his wife and daughter and son-in-law, Florence and Don Kilburn, built the first buildings, which have been so well maintained that they are still in use today.

In 1946, the Ranch was sold and operated as a boy’s camp. It was the first place in Montana to install underground electricity in 1948. Through successive years, the Ranch was a logging operation and cattle ranch. When guest ranching became popular in the area and Yellowstone a popular destination, the Ranch became a well respected guest ranch, drawing visitors from all over the world.

  • Kim and Mark decided to venture into the hospitality industry while on a 90-mile horse packing trip with friends through Yellowstone National Park's Thoroughfare. After a year managing a fly fishing lodge in southwest Montana, they joined the Lone Mountain Ranch team.

    Kim and Mark hail from the southeast. Mark grew up in Virginia and through his father, developed a passion for the outdoors at an early age. He fished and hunted across the countryside each year longing to live and play in the "Big Sky Country" of the west. After serving in the marines and the first Gulf War, he pursued an eduction in therapeutic recreation and psychology. After college, he headed to Montana to work with families, strengthening them through outdoor experiences. Over the last 15 years, he worked in the wilderness therapy industry, co-founding two non-profit programs that worked with teens and parents from all over the world. When not working, he spends his time hunting, fishing and skiing . For Mark, working with people, having a positive impact on their lives and being in the outdoors feeds his soul.

    Kim made her first trip to Motana in 2003 visiting family in Bozeman. After she and Mark  met in 2006, she decided to leave her corporate career behind and make Montana her home. She grew up working on her family's horse farm, attended and played basketball as an All-American at the University of the South and honed her skills as a marketer through her time at Vanderbilt's Business School and working for a few Fortune 500 companies. The confirmation of her unwavering love and passion for Montana and first introduction to the hospitality industry came through working with the Montana Office of Tourism on their marketing and strategy for a couple of years. 

    Mark and Kim are very happy to be a part of the Lone Mountain Ranch team and excited to meet each guest.
