Our stay was fabulous. Service, food, cabin, and the horses and goats were so cute! The only thing I am disappointed about is the gratuity fee the hotel charged. I was unaware. We tipped everyone and if we knew about the gratuity fee being included we would have not tipped. We did enjoy our stay and just be aware of all the extra fees and taxes that get charged. It’s a beautiful place!!!

The actual stay was awesome, food, dinner, and comforts were up to expectation and on brand with my previous experiences here. However, I booked a two night stay through hotels.com, and was informed after I checked in that I would have to check out the next morning because they were closing. Due to the price of finding another place to stay on the same day, I just cut my ski trip short and went home. I have yet to be reimbursed for the night I was unable to stay, despite talking to two people at LMR and one person at hotels.com customer service. And now

Lone Mountain Ranch is a one of a kind montana experience. It’s quiet, peaceful western ranch vibe is just what is needed for an ideal vacation. The staff is welcoming and kind. Even if you’re not staying at LMR, the horn and cattle is a gem of a restaurant.

This is the ultimate Montana experience! There is a fancy restaurant on site, but the sleigh ride dinner is the highlight. Tons of activities such as hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing etc. on the property. Excellent hospitality (morning coffee delivered to your cabin, luggage service).

A True Winter Wonderland

The Ranch is beautiful. It was not clear where to check in, but once you entered the Outpost building, everything was there. VERY cordial staff in a beautiful surrounding. The cabins are incredible, complete with a woodturning fireplace or stove. There was a welcome basket in our room complete with a bag of carrots to feed the horses! Dinner at the Horn and Cantle was incredible and do not miss the Sleigh Ride dinner. What a magical place!

We were made to feel by all the staff that every other guest on the property was more important than us. We were celebrating a very special occasion, but we were treated as if we were a nuisance. From check-in, where the receptionist was visibly annoyed that she needed to assist us, to being ignored by the hostess as the restaurant where we had a dinner reservation, we were made to feel like chopped liver. It was awful. There were many other mishaps in terms of the service we received that I would be happy to discuss with the property manager, because I know that they would not want their guests to feel unwelcome as we were. On a positive note, our cabin was wonderful, we loved the coffee delivery, and the property beautiful.

OK stay, not safe practices during a pandemic.

The property was great, the area was amazing, the horse ride was so beautiful and the staff were all super nice. That said, the room was surface clean, all surfaces were clean, but I had a hard time breathing in there, the spaces under the beds had such a thick layer of dust the wood was barely visible. It was no wonder we had a hard time breathing in there. We ended up sweeping the room and spraying it down ourselves. Honestly, we lived with it, but if you have severe asthma, probably not the best place to stay. The place was really a nice place to stay, but not a single staff member had a mask on, which meant zero guests had masks on, and there was no distancing at all. They supplied masks, and had made changes like no turn down service, but there was zero safe distancing practices from staff and zero mask wearing so it totally defeats the purpose. It was really concerning that they would put guests and staff members at risk like that. We wanted a break from COVID lockdown but it wasn’t a relaxing experience because we were told they had taken measures to “be safe” before we went there, but in reality it was the most unsafe we’ve felt in months of lockdown. We ended up pretty much locking ourselves in the cabin outside of some distanced activities outside. If a safe getaway during the pandemic is what you’re looking for, this isn’t it. That said, it was a nice resort, with great staff, and a great property. But overall, the experience landed us at an “OK.”
