Goosewing Ranch
Jackson
A working ranch reborn as an isolated retreat deep in the Gros Ventre River Valley, the Goosewing marks the entry point to a protected, pristine wilderness. The Gros Ventre River, home to native cutthroat trout, runs through the meadows of this historic ranch. Our remote location allows for excellent horseback riding and fly fishing. We cater to all horseback riding ability levels and will match the appropriate horse to each guest. Afternoon activities include target shooting, archery, roping, and arts and crafts. Evening activities include line dancing, campfires, cookouts, and more. We also have a hot tub and beautiful newly remodeled outdoor heated pool.
| Capacity: | The ranch accommodates approximately 30 guests per week. |
| Open: | June 6th to September 26th, 2010 |
| Altitude: | At 7,400 feet, the valley is the host to some of North America's most spectacular game: deer, elk, moose, antelope, bear, eagles, geese, cranes, and more, not to mention fantastic scenery. |
| Location: | We are a small, remote guest ranch located 40 miles northeast of Jackson Hole, Wyoming in the Bridger-Teton National Forest and bordering the Gros Ventre Wilderness. Our remote location allows for excellent horseback riding, fantastic scenery, and many opportunities to spot wildlife. |

| Transportation: | Jackson Hole Airport is 30 miles away, about a one hour drive. Transfers are available from the Jackson Hole Airport or the town of Jackson for $150 per vehicle round trip. For guests wanting to fish off the ranch or sightsee, a rental car provides freedom in scheduling these activities. Flying into Salt Lake City, UT and renting a car from there may also be a good choice. There are generally more daily flights available into Salt Lake than into Jackson. A fun alternative for those with a couple of extra days either before or after their ranch stay is a visit to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks and the Jackson Hole area. |
| Travel Agents: | We do work with travel agents. |
| Lodging: | Goosewing has eight private guest cabins and three larger 2-bedroom cabins for bigger families. Each cabin has a private bath, gas fireplaces, and a front porch. With its large stone fireplace, the main lodge serves as a central gathering place for dining and relaxing. A loft bar with a pool table and television overlooks the main room. |
| Kids' Program: | The children's program is offered from mid- June through August. The program goes for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours daily and is best suited for children 5 years and older. Children under 5 will be the full responsibility of their parents. Activities include arts & crafts, horse painting, wagon rides, roping, archery, target shotting, and other activities. Baby-sitting is available with advanced notice for an additional fee. |
| Food/Dining: | Meals are served in the main lodge. Breakfast is made to order and includes eggs any style, bacon, sausage, and pancakes, hashbrowns, etc. Dinners are by theme - Italian Night, Southwest Night, Cowboy Night (steaks), and Angler Night (trout, salmon). Depending on the cuisine, meals may be served plated or buffet style. Once a week there is a Dutch oven cookout over an open fire with live entertainment by the River. |
