About 320 Guest Ranch

Our authentic Saloon offers relaxation in the after-hours, pool games and more, and our on site restaurant, McGill's, features superb wild game specialties of the house prepared by our Chef. Activities abound with Yellowstone National Park and whitewater rafting just 10 miles down the road, and trail rides, hiking, biking & fly fishing access on the ranch. In the winter, our ranch offers Sleigh Rides and is only about 35 minutes to the Big Sky ski resort! There are lots of outfitters in the area for snowmobile rides and cross country skiing too!
