We stayed in the Porcupine cabin. It was clean and had high end furnishings throughout. Casey at the front desk was very helpful with our questions and Dagen gave us a tour of the beautiful property. These two worked hard to make our stay memorable. Highly recommend!!

The staff was really helpful when we had to leave a day ahead of our checkout due to a winter storm. The grounds of this facility were beautiful and I wish we could have stayed and enjoyed it and the restaurant. I would certainly like to go back.

This was a very quiet, clean and beautiful place to stay. The back deck overlooks the River .So relaxing to just sit there and listen to the sound of the flowing water. Loved the real wood burning fireplace too! Staff was super nice and accommodating.

This place was located in a beautiful spot against the river and with walking trails close by. The scenery was amazing. Staff made us an outdoor fire when we requested. It was great R and R

Amazing views, the room was clean and very comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was some of the best food I’ve ever had. The only issue was the hot tub for star gazing was not working.

Snowy December
Planned a couples getaway to see snow in December and this trip and lodge did not disappoint. There was a slight issue with our room when we arrived, but the staff made it right and moved us into another room. Location was technically in Big Sky but outside of the main area where all the huddle and bustle is. Loved the location. Breakfast was included and delicious. Great little place outside of town! Restaurant is also very good.
Elizabeth, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Overall disappointment
We were disappointed overall. The value for the price was not good. The breakfast was comparable to or less than any motel that offers breakfast. Half of the lights in our unit did not work. The water faucet by the coffee maker did not work. The bed was not all that comfortable. The setting was very nice. The shower was great.
Larry, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Close to big sky
The stay was ok. People were kind and friendly and well intentioned. I guess the property is rated higher by people who chose it as a romantic retreat. It would be very helpful if during ski season the property would open earlier than 8am so that people who are there for skiing don’t have to rush through breakfast worried that the parking lots in big sky will be full by the time they make it up there. For the price per night, the bathrooms really need to be updated. They have a nice hot tub though. Anyway, I have the feeling that that whole area is overrated.
ramona, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is a hidden gem! Located on the beautiful and tranquil Gallatin River, it near the highway but has the feel of seclusion. The staff are all amazing. I can’t say enough good things about Rainbow Lodge. We felt like we had the place to ourselves but there were other guests present. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous. The bed was comfy and the fireplace made it even more relaxing. We stayed in Osprey and had a beautiful view of the pond. Wildlife wanders on the property at dawn and dusk. The breakfast is the best I’ve ever had! It was made to order and was delicious. The staff were great at suggesting local places to sightsee and were so hospitable. If I could give Rainbow Ranch more than 5 stars I would. We will be back. It was our favorite place to stay hands down!
Shannon, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

We loved literally everything about staying here in regards to our room and the facilities and services to our room, aside from fairly underwhelming experience with service in the restaurant. Breakfast buffet was amazing, but service in the afternoons and evenings in the lounge and restaurant for dinner was often painful, from incredibly slow service while not too busy, to forgetting orders as well as not understanding how to charge the room.
