Fodor's Expert Review Eatons' Guest Ranch
270 Eatons' Ranch Rd., Wolf, Wyoming, 82844, USA
This spread is credited with inventing the dude ranch, back in the late 19th century, and it's still going strong, as well as being a working cattle ranch. The location, west of Sheridan on the edge of the Bighorn National Forest, makes it ideal for horseback riding, fishing, cookouts, and pack trips. The ranch can accommodate 125 guests, and reservations for the summer should be made by March. The facilities are a collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom cabins and the main lodge. There's a one-week minimum stay from mid-June through August and a three-day minimum stay the rest of the season.
PROS
- a pleasantly rustic experience
- plenty of chances to get in the saddle
- attentive and friendly staff
CONS
- with the minimum stay, if you find you don't like ranch life you're stuck for a few days
- far from the amenities of downtown
- cabins are basic
