Quintessential Northern Idaho Lodging Options

For decades, guests from far and near have discovered the advantages of our all-inclusive dude ranch resort, and our accommodations are no exception! Having rustic yet modern accommodations has always been one of the pillars of the Red Horse Mountain Ranch experience. Whether you need a large private lodge, spacious cabins, or a cozy suite, our quintessential Northern Idaho lodging options are as authentic as they are comfortable. Still, you should examine the finer details of what to expect during your stay.

All-Inclusive Ranch Vacations

Before we get into the specifics of each of our accommodations, we’ll review what comes with your all-inclusive vacation package. Horseback riding is arguably the most significant draw for those looking for authentic Northern Idaho lodging. Before you arrive, we’ll have you fill out a form to give us a better idea of your skill level. From there, we’ll choose a horse best suited for you. Guests will have at least two daily opportunities to feel the excitement of a Western-style horseback ride amid alpine beauty. 

In addition to horseback riding, guests will also enjoy a stunning array of ranch activities ranging from fishing to 3D archery. Families will love the kid-family atmosphere, while couples and solo travelers will appreciate the informal yet professional setting. Speaking of professionalism, we’re also an excellent spot for corporate retreats!
