    I went to the ranch for a hunting dog seminar. The facility is fantastic. Tim and his team are outstanding. They are very accommodating and you can feel they want you to have a memorable experience. Every meal was superb. There is lots of pheasants on the property. It was my first visit at the ranch but It won’t be my last.

    Tim has a one of a kind place here. I have hunted many Pheasant at various farms in my life, this was hands down the best and most personalized experience I have had at a pheasant ranch! Not only does Tim take you out and keep you entertained with dialogue & jokes, his dogs are amazing creatures. Watching a pair of dogs work in tandem was pretty cool. The Pheasant were all roosters, big and great looking birds! The lunch server post hunt was a meal you will not forget, I guarantee it! I would also recommend staying in a room here as the Ranches in house chef cooks 5-Star meals! Meagan, thank you so much for the delicious dinner & breakfast, which is included in the price of the overnight stay. Our group shared paella, scalloped potatoes, a salad, roasted beat beg medley for dinner, with an apple/blueberry crisp/vanilla ice cream desert. Meagan will make you feel like mom is in the kitchen making family meals for you. Our entire group cannot wait to stay here again and share stories with Tim and fellow travelers. The memories made here will be with me for a long time. Do yourself a favor, go experience it!

    Never don’t stop at fantastic Lazy Bear Ranch! The rooms are sparkling clean, the beds are so comfy you’ll sleep peacefully all night long and wake up raring to go in the morning. Ask Tim, the very best host, where to have a great breakfast and he’ll help you out. A++ to Lazy Bear Ranch!!

    We were traveling north up 95 and spent the night at the Lazy Bear ranch. What a an unexpected treat! This 200 acre ranch had beautiful new rooms with great bedding and fluffy towels. We liked that there were no TVs in the room, but beautiful photographs of different areas on the ranch. After meeting Tim, we took a hour-long stroll to the lake on the property, and saw heron, egret, deer, and a variety of birds. Beautiful sunset walk. Looks like a great wedding venue, which even had a large bridal dressing / prep room like nothing we had ever seen before. Highly recommended for a night or a longer stay.

    Lazy Bear Ranch is a gem! We stayed here while in Idaho for a work trip. It felt like we were on vacation. The rooms were comfortable. The property was beautiful! Catering by Keith was so delicious and Tim was the perfect host! Definitely hope to visit Lazy Bear Ranch again.

    Lazy Bear Ranch is a slice of heaven. Our group was visiting on a work project, but the folks at Lazy Bear made it feel like a vacation. Wonderful hospitality in beautiful country. I can only imagine how great a private event or a hunting weekend with friends would be at Lazy Bear. Highly recommend!

    We recently stayed at Lazy Bear Ranch for a work trip, and it ended up being the highlight of our travels. With limited lodging options near Cambridge, our team had originally booked rooms at a chain hotel in Ontario—but after my first call with the owner, Tim Wrightman, I knew staying there would be a treat. Tim was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate us. He and his chef, Keith, helped us host a delicious client dinner on our first night, and Tim opened the bar for us each evening and even started a fire one night. Both our crew and our client were thrilled with the experience. The peaceful, remote setting and cozy accommodations provided the perfect backdrop for a restful night’s sleep after long workdays. I’d absolutely recommend Lazy Bear Ranch to anyone visiting the area—or anyone simply looking for a special place to unwind for a few nights.

    Stopping in and staying at the Lazy Bear Ranch was an absolute delight. The property is stunning, the rooms are cozy and inviting, and the outdoor fireplace and seating is such a warm relaxing touch. The overall experience made it feel like a true getaway. I highly recommend booking a few days to fully enjoy or consider hosting an event here.

    Lazy Bear Ranch is an absolutely magical venue! I had the pleasure of filming Taylor & Riley’s wedding there, and it was truly unforgettable. Their Hawaiian-themed celebration, with Taylor’s roots from Hawaii, felt so natural and perfect in the serene and enchanting setting of Lazy Bear Ranch. The venue’s expansive lawn, tranquil lake, and stunning Enchanted Tree Lined Chapel provided the most beautiful backdrops for their special day. As a wedding videographer with Gage Horne Studios, I was in awe of the variety of picturesque spots this venue offers—from the Unity Lane Bridge to the elegant indoor lodge and covered pavilion. The combination of rustic charm and modern amenities made every moment shine on film. The staff at Lazy Bear Ranch were incredibly accommodating, ensuring that every detail of the day was seamless. The availability of guest suites and thoughtful touches like the shuttle service added to the relaxed, luxurious experience. Taylor & Riley’s wedding was an absolute joy to capture at Lazy Bear Ranch, and I can’t wait to return to this beautiful venue for more love stories in the future! 🎥✨

    Idyllic!! Breathtaking and Tim was a gracious host. Beautiful grounds and accommodations and event facilities! And the giant gorgeous pond! The kitchens are an event DREAM. I am excited to attend his next music event too. He even has a liquor license and a fantastic bar next to a gorgeous water element. We are SO LUCKY to have such a special place here in the western Treasure Valley!!!

    Great Jimmy Buffett tribute weekend. The band was great and the party was even better.

    Pretty nice place. The wedding ceremony area was scenically tucked away in the woods. Even on a really hot day, the mister fans helped keep the banquet area nice and cool.

    Stayed here on a whim while traveling and fishing with my sons, just looking for an out of the way place to rest for the night and lucked into another adventure. The ranch and event hosting facilities are beautiful. We were greeted by the owner, Tim, who couldn’t have been nicer. We talked hunting, met his pointers, and he invited us to try out the pond for what turned out to be a fantastic bass bite at sunset. If you’re up for adventure, put this on the list!

    Lazy Bear Ranch, thank you for an amazing experience! Coming from NV as a duck hunter, I decided to try pheasant there...it blew me away. I’m a fan. Tim, our host, was awesome. Working with his hunting dogs was top-notch. Lazy Bear Ranch is more than a preserve & hunting spot; it's a piece of Americana restored. The beauty here is irresistible. Can't wait to come back!

    It is an opportunity for an easy hunt but, more importantly, a day hanging out with Tim Wrightman. Just an exceptional human being and no chance you are having anything but a great day at the Lazy Bear! Book it!

    What an amazing spot. We just wrapped up an awesome two day pheasant hunt at Lazy Bear Ranch. The birds and hunting dogs were fantastic. Tim Wrightman and his team were great. The food that Keith cooked was delicious. The ranch and rooms/suites were 1st class.

    Went out to the ranch today with a younger dog that we wanted to do some training work. Tim and his crew were very welcoming and did an excellent job setting us up for that opportunity. Highly recommend and will use again! Thanks Tim!
