BONANZA CREEK VACATION CABINS
Staying at one of our cabins is a great way to getaway in the mountains of Montana.
Our western furnished cabins sit on the edge of our working cattle ranch adjoining the Lewis and Clark National Forest. They are a combination of Montana style and comfort with a variety in size and price. We have a three night minimum so you can settle in and truly enjoy. Peace and quiet will always be a part of your every day life.
In the summer, you can go horseback riding, fish a little, hike on trails along the creek or up the mountain, enhance your life with equine life coaching, or explore the mountains on your own ATV. In the fall you can enjoy hunting on the Lewis and Clark National Forest. Whatever you do, come prepared to enjoy nature and life in the “middle of nowhere”.
We are located just off HWY 89 outside of Martinsdale in the heart of the Castle Mountains with an amazing view of the Crazy Mountains.
Riding in this big country with other good riders who love to ride is an incredible experience. Come and enjoy the freedom of riding in open, unspoiled country where for generations ranchers have tended to the land, sheep, cattle and horses. You’ll ride not only on the beautiful Voldseth ranch, but also on the vastness of the Helena Lewis and Clark National Forest. The views and the experience will stay with you forever.

You are in the mountains of Montana so come prepared for change as you might get a bit of everything in one week or one day. Please check weather.com for Martinsdale MT before packing.
