Ranch Information

Here at Goosewing Ranch in Jackson Hole Wyoming, we combine the lifestyle of ranching in the Wyoming wilderness with many of the modern refinements that make your visit with us especially enjoyable.  Goosewing Ranch, Jackson Hole Dude Ranch is a Resort Guest Ranch.

At 7,400 feet, the valley is the host to some of North America’s most spectacular game: elk, moose, mountain sheep, antelope, bear, eagles, geese, cranes, and much more, not to mention fantastic scenery. The Gros Ventre River, home to native cutthroat trout, runs through the meadows of our historic ranch.

Our Jackson Hole dude ranch offers comfortable lodging in eight private guest cabins and three larger 2-bedroom cabins for bigger families. Complimentary wireless internet is provided throughout the Ranch. With its large stone fireplace, the main lodge serves as a central gathering place for dining or relaxing. A loft with a pool table and television overlooks the main room. Fireplaces, wood-stoves, a hot tub and swimming pool add to the cozy atmosphere. A large selection of beer, wine, and liquor compliments an eclectic, seasonal menu.

We invite you to come share this corner of North America’s wildest country just as it has been for over a hundred years – a working ranch reborn as an isolated retreat deep in the Gros Ventre River Valley.

The Ranch

A working ranch reborn as an isolated retreat deep in the Gros Ventre River Valley Wyoming, Goosewing marks the entry point to a protected, pristine wilderness.

There is a bounty of activities to enjoy while staying at our dude ranch in Jackson Hole. Horseback riding is our main focus during summer months. We cater to all riding ability levels and will match the appropriate horse to each guest. Fly fishing is excellent in the area, we provide instruction on our stocked pond and section of the river that flows through the property twice weekly. Take advantage of what our area has to offer, take a white water rafting trip down the snake river or head into the town of Jackson to see a rodeo.

Our dude ranch in Jackson Hole accommodates approximately 30 guests per week, and all accommodations are in private cabins. Each cabin has rustic, yet cozy and comfortable decor. Meals are family style in the main lodge.

When the horseback rides return, the outdoor heated pool, hot tub, brand new sauna and massage room provide excellent relaxation before the scheduled activities begin. Target shooting, archery, roping, horse games, and arts and crafts are only a few of the afternoon activities we provide. Evening activities include line dancing, campfires, cookouts, star gazing, and more.

Dining

Most meals are served family style in the Main Lodge where we have 3 chefs on staff. The new outdoor kitchen and dining area is a wonderful place for all to enjoy meals and family time. The outdoor dining area features a wood burning oven, covered seating, lighting, and propane above head heaters. Dinners will include fresh salad bar, at least two main entree options, vegetarian option, gluten free option and Kid’s option. We can accommodate dietary restrictions with advanced notice.  Carbonated drinks are available for purchase or included in cocktail prices.

Recreation

If horseback riding isn’t your thing, or if you are looking for something to keep you busy while you aren’t in the saddle, we have plenty of activities at our Jackson Hole resort ranch to keep you busy! We try to have a mixture of organized activities and less structured opportunities to ensure you have a great vacation.  Our resort ranch is a great fit for multiply generations and family reunions, as well as couples, singles, and groups of friends.

Every day we will have several activities that you can choose to participate in. Some examples of the activities we offer are target shooting with .22 rifles or BB guns, Geo-caching, hatchet throwing, archery, horse games, fishing instruction, themed trail rides, wagon rides, team penning, unguided tubing the river, unguided hiking, unguided mountain biking, and roping practice. We even offer the prospect of old-time western photos.

At night you can join in as we sit around the campfire, take part in wine tasting, enjoy mountain man and cowboy stories, scavenger hunts, listen to authentic western entertainment, board games, play a hand of poke, take a sunset UTV ride, or take part in our line dancing.  Our location makes for spectacular star gazing.  We focus on relaxation and encourage families to enjoy time together sharing the days stories.
