The owners and staff at Bear Creek made us feel welcomed. The cabins are small yet comfortable. We started each morning with a delicious home cooked breakfast. Free to walk around and talk with the horses, dogs , and cat. This family treated us as family. A wonderful trip to the area. Bear Creek made it great!!

This was the most perfect place to stay for the Montana/GNP experience we were looking for. Great hospitality and a wonderful location between East and West entrances to the park. 10/10! We will be back!

The staff at Bear Creek Ranch were so friendly and helpful! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Ranch. The horseback ride was so beautiful and the horses were a joy to ride. Bill provided excellent instruction and guidance. The breakfasts were delicious and there was enough for seconds! We felt that we were really experiencing what real Montana is like!
