We really enjoyed our time at Iron Wheel Ranch! Our family was in Bozeman for my son's wedding and it was the perfect setting for a family reunion. It had everything you'd want - clean, comfortable beds, huge kitchen, amazing views and decor that was full on Montana! Nice people, nice place...I highly recommend it. Jim W.

My sister's and I went with my youngest sisters boyfriend as well, neither had ridden before and my other sister and I had little experience. Jodi took all of that into consideration and paired us with the perfect horses! Jodi was kind, patient and funny! She was able to make my sister feel extremely comfortable and talked all of us through any questions we had. The horses did such an incredible job with us and seemed to know the path by heart! We had SO much fun riding and taking in the incredible views. We are already talking about coming back here on our next trip to Montana. If you have any doubts PLEASE sign up for this with friends and or family and I promise Jodi will do an amazing job making you feel comfortable and pair you with the perfect horse. My horse was Spike! He kept me giggling the entire time watching him sneak his snacks in along the trail. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

We organized the ride with Jody who was extremely friendly and helpful. Scott was our guide and gave us a great experience! Our group of consisted of 3 very inexperienced riders including my 8 year old son, 70 year old father, and myself (36F). The scenery was amazing and the horses were well mannered and very sweet. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! We hope to come back again soon!

We had a wedding at the Copper K barn and wanted to stay somewhere off the beaten path. We had a fantastic time. Very affordable with lots of things to do. First floor has a wheelchair accessible bathroom (note: I'm not an ADA expert). Highly recommended.

The Iron Wheel Guest Ranch is an awesome place! The horses are well-cared for, the trail is beautiful and scenic, and the owner/guides are professional, knowledgeable, and fun. My daughter and I visited while in the area and the experience was everything we hoped for, and more!

★★★★★
We extend a handful of thank yous to Jody and Scott, owners of Iron Wheel Guest Ranch, for their hospitality and expertise. Our early afternoon ride was everything we wanted it to be out in the beautiful countryside with gorgeous views! Scott led my husband and I on the 2-hour trail and was so knowledgeable on past and present facts. We added this to the top of our list of great experiences in our 10-day vacation in Montana. Hope to be back riding at Iron Wheel real soon!

Great place and great people😊🐟🐎😎🤗
★★★★★
Booked a 2 hour ride and they were very accommodating to our large group. Jodi was a great tour guide and made sure everyone's saddle and stirrups fit and were comfortable throughout the ride! She was engaging and even remembered everyone's names! We love that they are a smaller family owned and run operation. ♥️ We were the only people on the trail! Gorgeous views!!!
★★★★★
Very clean. Welcoming atmosphere. The nicest owners anywhere. Tasty breakfast included. Absolutely beautiful surroundings. Barn kitties. Several horseback adventure options. I definitely would stay again!
★★★★★
Super special trail ride on bombproof, beautiful horses. Unique, comfortable, fun and utterly tranquil trail ride in some spectacular Montana mountains just 15 miles outside Of Butte. Jodie was attentive, helpful, knowledgeable and great to chat with and extremely generous with her time and horse knowledge. My 12 year old daughter had only ridden a horse once before and she(and me) returned to the barn happy, confident and thrilled to have experienced Montana on great horses with great people on a beautiful sunny Montana day! Thanks so much!
★★★★★
Scott and Jody were great. I went horseback riding with my 3 kids and it was a lot of fun. They explained everything well and Jody talked with us the whole trail ride and kept the kids engaged. Lots of smiles and laughs and amazing views. If you are traveling through this area it is worth stopping here.
★★★★★
They are SUPER friendly and clean and food is great!

the horseback riding experience was absolutely wonderful
★★★★★
My family stayed with Scott and Jody Cargill a few weeks ago on a three night, two day guided fishing trip. They run a nice operation with clean, comfortable accommodations, good food, and a friendly staff. While my wife and daughter took a trail ride in the surrounding hills, I enjoyed some of the best trout fishing I’ve ever experienced on the Big Hole and Jefferson Rivers with Scott as my expert guide. I landed 14 fish the first morning and 27 the next. Many more we’re hooked but got off before being netted; the largest probably a 24” trout that broke the line. He uses good quality equipment that is well maintained and he is very conscientious about safety. All in all, we enjoyed our time at the Iron Wheel Guest Ranch and I’d recommend them to others.
★★★★★
Absolutely a great time with great people will definitely be going back

Alice ( my wife of 38 years) had dreamed of taking a bull elk to call her own! The moment John Cargill answered my call I knew Iron Wheel Outfitters was perfect for the task! Scott ( John and Sherry's) son was our guide. Scott had a heart of gold, knowing that guiding a lady in her 50's and a 60 year old husband tagging along would be a challenge! On our third morning Scott had put the puzzle together getting Alice within 415 yards of a 300 + 6 x 6 bull. As I Videoed Scott gently comforted Alice with her set up, One perfect shot that took out both shoulders, both lungs and the top of the big bulls heart was all captured! The hardest part of the hunt was wiping the tears as we had to depart newly found friends! I have hunted a lot in my life, I would put Iron Wheel at the top of the recommend list! Thanks again to - John, Sherry and Scott
★★★★★
Held a family reunion here. VERY friendly owners. We all felt like we were in our own homes. Also had a beautiful trail ride into the Highland mountains. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Outfitting, boat floats for fishing, trail rides and great owners and staff.
★★★★★
Horseback riding at its best!! Liz and Scott were awesome guides. Highly recommend this one.
★★★★★
Scott was very accommodating and the views were breathtaking. Definitely worthy of getting off of I-90 and taking a breather. You have three great views from up here and it does go to show it truly is Big Sky Country.
★☆☆☆☆
I don’t normally complain on things like this due to my quest for mutual respect and dignity. But I refuse to respect a company or business that has obvious deep-seated hate or fear of someone different than them. Bigotry will get you nowhere in Montana or in or our world period. I will not expose anyone I know to your hatred. This business is ran by homophobes and bigots. Avoid at all costs.
★★★★★
Wonderful Down home folks!
