Picture yourself as a cowboy in the heart of the Black Hills of Wyoming, where the landscape whispers stories of the old stagecoach days. This isn't your usual getaway—it's a full-on plunge into the cowboy lifestyle. You can hang your hat at a real stage stop, offering a peek into a bygone era. The site offers a special connection to the history of the stagecoach route from Deadwood to Miles City.

Visitors love the remoteness, silence, and stunning nature—and with good reason! With 1,500 acres to explore, adventurers are always amazed by the serene sunrises and sunsets, especially when shared with friends or family. Bring your horse, pack those cowboy boots, and dive into the endless adventures across prairie lands, nestled under towering pines.

Ready, Set, Enjoy: What You Need to Know

Plan for a visit to our range, and you'll want to be equipped with your comfy boots, a trusty hat, and maybe even your sense of adventure. Whatever path you choose, whether by foot or hoof, bring layers to stay cozy. Summer mornings are ideal for hiking, while fall offers a vibrant canvas you won't want to miss.

The early bird gets the worm, or so they say, so booking a spot in one of our rustic Bunkhouse or Ranch House accommodations isn't a bad idea. If simplicity is more your style, one of our dry cabins might just be what you’re looking for. Don't forget a hearty breakfast and maybe some grilling supplies for a true taste of Wyoming.

The Scenic Route to Your Range Haven

Getting to your cowboy home away from home is half the fun. Take the route through the rolling hills and try not to miss the sights along the way. Whether you're coming from South Dakota or venturing through Wyoming, every mile on these roads is a step back in time.

Keep an eye out for changes in the weather since roads can get a bit tricky during the colder months. But don't worry; local signs and trail markers will guide you right to our doorstep, where your adventure truly begins. If you’re the type who likes to veer off the beaten path, we've got alternative trails perfect for the eager explorer in you.

Stepping into this experience is as simple as pulling on the reins and letting your horse guide you through the prairie. At our stage stop, you'll feel every bit the cowboy (or cowgirl). Whether you prefer to explore via horseback or on foot, there's plenty to see and do.

Swap your tales at the Trading Post, where you'll find maps, merchandise, snacks, and more. Hungry for more? Take a picnic under the covered patio, letting the peaceful environment unfold around you.
