Blackwater Creek Ranch

The cabins, the staff, the scenery, the horses - one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. The meals were delicious (some of the best duck and steak I’ve ever had), the ranch was beautiful, the staff were the loveliest people, and the horses were all well-behaved. The staff took great care in matching each guest with a horse at their riding level. My group had a mix of beginner and advanced riders and we all loved the horse that was chosen for us. I would definitely go back again and would highly recommend for both riders and non-riders!!

We had the privilege of spending six nights at the Blackwater Creek Ranch. What a wonderful adventure for a couple of city slickers. First, the administrative staff, the wranglers, housekeeping and the chef truly made this adventure exceptional. Everyone was courteous, personable and professional. The activities (trail riding, white water rafting, Yellowstone tour and the Cody Rodeo) were all terrific! Every meal: Outstanding! This our second ranch (Rancho de la Osa, the first) within the True Ranch Collection. Take time for a lifetime event to create lifetime memories.

Ugh, very run down. Not ready for prime time for the cost. Dim lighting everywhere, swimming pool and hot tub were closed and dirty, the shower was barely adequate. Outlets didn’t work. No maid service. The rumpus room was filthy and the lighting was dim led bulbs. |But the food was good, horses and riding were great, beautiful scenic trails, staff was great. Excursions to Yellowstone, rodeo and rafting were wonderful. Great location between Cody and Yellowstone.

I stayed on the Blackwater Creek Ranch from 8th June until the 14th from the moment I got there the staff were very pleasant and knowledgable about the area the food was plentiful and different variety every day and very tasty The surrounding areas have beautiful scenery. The horse riding was top class And what made this holiday experience even more relaxing was the other guests that were there at the same time they were very friendly. And even made me marshmallow and popcorn on the open fire I have made some fabulous friends and will miss them all

Be prepared to be awed! Pampered! Treated like family! I went for the horseback riding through the incredible mountains, there’s so much more to do! Whitewater rafting, skeet shooting, archery, tour of Yellowstone National Park. Just simply hiking & observing & absorbing the beautiful breathtaking scenery. The staff are very professional, take great care in your safety (this is bear country!) and ensure that you’ve everything you need. I do went to caution you, if you’re not experienced in riding in the mountains it is, can be, physically challenging. Be honest with yourself as there is altitude to contend with and steep mountain trails. Enjoy!

The Ranch, the Staff and the location are all unbelievable !!! I studied all of the neighboring ranches and I feel that blackwater creek wrench is a step above all of them. And now, since i've been there, I feel sure that I was right. The package that they offer you is action packed, including a full day in Yellowstone and an evening trip to the Cody Rodeo

Black Water Creek Ranch is a truly charmed oasis in the middle of a beautiful part of the country. From the moment we arrived at the ranch we felt welcomed, and part of the family. Our cabin, bedding, and towels were all clean and the housekeeping staff did an incredible job of tidying up daily while we were out on rides or adventures. The meals that were provided were excellent, with multiple breakfast choices, a diverse lunch menu, and fantastic dinners. My family of 6 was well-fed, enjoyed every meal, and were well-attended by the friendly wait-staff! The guided rides we took were truly breath-taking. From valley floor to elevated heights, we took in sights that will stick with us for a long time to come. The wranglers were great, ensuring our horses, saddles, and stirrups fit each of us properly. The horses knew what to do, and we were able to truly enjoy the rides. The additional adventures - Yellowstone tour, Cody rodeo, etc. were great breaks from riding, and offered us experiences we likely would not have had if left on our own. From fishing in the on-premise river, to windows-open, burbling stream sleeping, to the incredible hospitality by the owners, this ranch is a true gem. All 4 of our our kids (10-14) agreed - this was the best family vacation we have ever taken. Thank you Dianna and Johnny for helping make our week one we will never, ever forget!
