Rainbow Ranch is a must-stay location in Big Sky. The property is well maintained and the staff are wonderful and helpful! It’s near the 191 highway which makes it easy to get to!

We stayed in the Porcupine cabin. It was clean and had high end furnishings throughout. Casey at the front desk was very helpful with our questions and Dagen gave us a tour of the beautiful property. These two worked hard to make our stay memorable. Highly recommend!!

Overall disappointment
We were disappointed overall. The value for the price was not good. The breakfast was comparable to or less than any motel that offers breakfast. Half of the lights in our unit did not work. The water faucet by the coffee maker did not work. The bed was not all that comfortable. The setting was very nice. The shower was great.

This place is a hidden gem! Located on the beautiful and tranquil Gallatin River, it near the highway but has the feel of seclusion. The staff are all amazing. I can’t say enough good things about Rainbow Lodge. We felt like we had the place to ourselves but there were other guests present. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous. The bed was comfy and the fireplace made it even more relaxing. We stayed in Osprey and had a beautiful view of the pond. Wildlife wanders on the property at dawn and dusk. The breakfast is the best I’ve ever had! It was made to order and was delicious. The staff were great at suggesting local places to sightsee and were so hospitable. If I could give Rainbow Ranch more than 5 stars I would. We will be back. It was our favorite place to stay hands down!

Close to big sky
The stay was ok. People were kind and friendly and well intentioned. I guess the property is rated higher by people who chose it as a romantic retreat. It would be very helpful if during ski season the property would open earlier than 8am so that people who are there for skiing don’t have to rush through breakfast worried that the parking lots in big sky will be full by the time they make it up there. For the price per night, the bathrooms really need to be updated. They have a nice hot tub though. Anyway, I have the feeling that that whole area is overrated.

Rainbow Ranch Disappointment
We were so excited to stay at Rainbow Ranch. I had been told how wonderful it was. We were in the Buffalo room. The tub was dirty and there were 4 dead flies in the toilet. The water barely trickled out of the bathroom sink and bathtub shower. By the time we checked in staff was gone for the night. The bed was comfortable. Overall for $500 the condition of the room was very poor. I would not recommend staying here. The room (possibly others) needs a serious upgrade. I do not think anything has been changed since the 80s.

Not worth the price
First, if you’re closing your kitchen to guests due to an event it would be appropriate to inform them of that when you receive notification of their reservation rather than waiting until they arrive. Second, the jets on the bathtub were all coated in bright orange grime. Some bleach and a sponge would have cleaned that up pretty easily. If they’re not cleaning the east spots it makes me question the hard to clean spots. For the cost of this room I would recommend going elsewhere. The lack of cleanliness and being told at checkin that we would not be allowed to dine there were both off putting. Not to mention the stink eye we received from a few folks at their event, a wedding I believe, when they saw us walking our dogs.
