About this property

Montana's Staubach Creek Ranch - set in the shadows of the Elkhorn Mountains - features abundant wildlife viewing of elk, deer, birds and an array of other animals. Throw your line into the ranch's fishing pond stocked with brook trout. Explore the ranch's 1,600 acres or the nearby Elkhorns on foot or by horseback.
The ranch provides the perfect private getaway for a family or small group. Try your hand at wrangling or driving cattle. Or, just relax and enjoy views of the majestic Elkhorn and Big Belt Mountains, both part of the Rocky Mountain range, and the nearby Canyon Ferry Lake.
This historic ranch was homesteaded in 1865 by Valentine Staubach, a German immigrant. Many of the original buildings remain on the ranch.
The newly remodeled guest house provides a comfortable residence for guests. Linens and towels are provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with all appliances, silverware and flatware. The house also has a large-capacity washer and dryer.

A Montana Wedding - our 2nd stay at Staubach Creek Ranch!

All memebers of three generations gatheredto celebrate the wedding of our son and once again this ranch life escape provided the perfect place to accommodate those from out-of-town and enough room to feed the entire wedding rehearsal dinner!! The house is comfortable and complete with everything you need!! Since this was the 2nd time I have worked with the owners, I knew to expect these caring and thoughtful Montanans to check in on us and care enough to ensure our utter satisfaction. The ranch dogs were a delight to all and made everyone feel like we were at home. Again this year, our out of state guests saw elk, bald eagles, and even enjoyed several friendly walks to see the horses. Staubach Creek Ranch and Marie have made my hosting job a success two years in a row!! Thank again!!!
