We did not want to leave!

Gorgeous lodge with the most beautiful surrounds. Staff were very friendly, especially the GM, Thomas. Our pond side cabin where you could hear the running waters of the creek. Do not book anywhere else.

Great location but disappointed in cleanliness, staff etc, especially for the price tag.

The location was amazing.

The staff were absent, difficult to find. There were crumbs on the floor of the room and chips or something on the floor when we made up the pull out sofa,. There was old/dried food on the deck which obviously hadn’t been swept in a while.

Gorgeous lodge!

The room was beautiful! Big and roomy! Loved the fireplace. The room was incredibly clean and comfortable. Loved the outside back porch area overlooking the backyard grounds which are amazing. The river running through the back area— absolutely stunning! The breakfast was delicious! Great staff!!!

Other than dinner, there was nothing that would bring us back.

The dinner was just wonderful!! The bed was comfy.

The walkways were not cleared of ice or snow, very slippery. Our room had 2 queen beds but no sitting chairs to sit and read. If we wanted to relax and read, we had to sit on the bed. Not comfortable. Our room was nice but for the price we paid it did not meet our expectations. Would not stay in this room again.

The service was excellent, everyone was very friendly and quick to assist with anything. The view was lovely and dinner was amazing.

The layout of our suite was a bit cramped. Two rooms with beds, no real lounge space inside other than the beds and one chair. Not sure I'd want that for a stay of more than one night. There are probably bigger suites most likely at a higher price point, but we only stayed the one night.

Beautiful Scenery around Cabins in the middle of nowhere

Beautiful area. Loved fireplace in bedroom! Nice staff. Good, warm breakfast.

Would have been helpful to know No soda or water for sale there. Restaurant & Bar closed until 4. Had to drive 20 minutes to get a drink, but it was a Beautiful drive. Dinner was expensive & unusual menu for us. Duck/elk. We ate elsewhere.

Excellent - very accommodating and will stay here again.

Amazing property on the river. Easy on/off access from the highway. Very clean and quiet. Staff was friendly and breakfast was great.

found out when we arrived that the restaurant Was closed for a private party. We partially booked this resort because of the access to the restaurant for our elderly family member. We drove up a few miles and brought pizza back - So it all worked out. It was sort of like booking a motel with a pool for the kids - only to find out when you get there that the pool is closed for a private party. It all turned out fine - just sort of a bummer. Also - bring your own kindling if you want to use the awesome fireplace.

It was not what I had hoped for

The grounds were very well kept.

The hot tub wasn’t working because a new one is being put in but we should have been notified and therefore there was nothing to do at the ranch. Corn hole or horse shoes would have been nice. Also the trail behind the ranch is totally overgrown. The rooms were not ready at check in.

Mediocre and over paid.

The room was great but could tell we were early in the season.

We were informed in advanced of construction and that didn’t affect the room itself but access to the room and the property itself. Breakfast was ok but we went about 30 min before it ended and things like plates and napkins weren’t available. The staff did bring what was needed, but, again, seemed like they weren’t quite ready for the season (we visited the Friday before Members Day). For what I paid, I expected a considerable better experience.

Best Pet Friendly lodging, amazing food and friendly staff.

This place was great, breakfast every morning and it was perfect. Variety each day. Coffee was so good I already miss it. We traveled with our dog and out back was a trail to hike each day. He chased the elk every morning and was excited to go multiple times per day (older dog so it was nice to see new energy). The staff went above and beyond. After hours we realized our pull out sofa did not have bedding. Called and text the after hour number and within 30 minutes a staffer arrived with bedding. He had to come back to the ranch as he had gone home. In this day and age every business seems to be short staffed. This place did its best to accommodate. We will definitely be back!

I did not like the fact that the next weekend was booked as we wanted to come back but that was a good thing for the Rainbow Ranch to be full!

Short and sweet.

I liked the fireplace in the room and the main reception building. Wild Caddis is a good restaurant, compliments to the chef. Great steak!

Staffing levels need to be increased. The staff were nice and did their best, but they were clearly understaffed.

Could be a wonderful place if you would focus more on cleanliness and comfort of the rooms.

Beautiful scenery and outdoor sitting area. Lobby was beautiful. Free breakfast was good.

I was very disappointed with the cleanliness of the room. The floor looked like it hadn’t been swept in ages, and the ceiling fan was so dusty I was afraid to turn it on. The bed was so hard it felt like sleeping on a board and had a plastic cover, so I kept waking up sweating. I was really excited to make a cup of coffee in my room in the morning but the coffee maker was so disgusting I didn’t dare.

Bad

The grounds of property are beautiful.

We checked into our room and when we entered it the room smelled of sewerage. Went to find housekeeping and was told this was happening for the past 3 days and the hotel was told about problem and we were stilled put into the room. Unbelievable!! Why they wouldn’t call us before and tell us they were experiencing a problem and find us alternate lodging is beyond me. Forget the smell but I’m sure sleeping in a room, that has a sewerage problem, is not the best for my health. Very disappointed how this was handled. Also, we had made a reservation through open table for their restaurant and was told when we were there that it is closed. We were able to get a room in a nearby motel, but we would never book this for ourselves. Was a workers motel. Every morning at 6am all diesel trucks were started. Anyway, after the debacle at Rainbow Lodge, they did refund all monies that was paid in advance for their lodging and picked up bill for motel.

Big Sky Trip

Property was very pretty nestled along the Gallatin river with the mountains in the background. Room was cute with a fireplace that overlooked the stream. One of the employees Jo, was very helpful when we arrived. Set up games on the pretty lawn for us as we had a lunch we brought on the upper deck. She even helped my husband learn to fly -fish-no luck though Breakfast which was included in the price was plentiful and very good.

We were disappointed that the bar snd restaurant in which we had a reservation was closed when we arrived. Room smelled from fireplace but you got use to it.
