Smith Fork Ranch

I had the pleasure of spending a long weekend at Smith Fork Ranch and I don't even know where to start with describing how magical it was. The exquisite beauty of the place, the kindness and attentiveness of the staff, the fresh and fabulous food, everything was about as perfect as it gets. The staff are the real stars here, and they go way out of their way to make sure that guests are happy and having a good time. Too cloudy for an astronomy night? They will figure out line dancing instead! Want to have an impromptu dance party? They will dj it for you! Did your kids discover Shirley Temples and go through all of the maraschino cherries? They will go get more! Does your eight year old want to try barrel racing? They will find the right horse for her to safely give it a try. The staff are the kind of people that you want to hang with out. They are fun and interesting, and each of them has a great story about how they arrived in this special place. We also had a very special evening with the incredible singer-songwriter Emily Scott Robinson, which the ranch arranged for us. Each accommodation is unique and special, as are the common areas. Each meal felt well thought out and was locally sourced. I could go on, but you get the picture. If you have the chance to go here, don't pass it up!

A dream stay! We spent the most wonderful week at the ranch and I cannot recommend them enough. The food, activities and accommodations were all lovely but the real gem of the location is its staff. Every staff member added to an exceptional experience. They took great care of our family catering to the unique needs of adults with many different needs and 3 toddlers/babies. Always with a great energy that really added to the celebratory atmosphere.

Our stay at Smith Fork Ranch was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Nestled in the picturesque North Fork Valley with stunning mountain views, the ranch offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The property itself is nothing short of gorgeous, with beautifully maintained grounds and pristine cabins that perfectly blend rustic charm with modern luxury. The cabins were immaculate and offered a cozy retreat after our days packed with exciting activities. We had the pleasure of staying in a cabin that overlooks Smith Fork Creek. Surrounded by big, beautiful trees, crisp fresh air, and the soothing sounds of the river, we were truly immersed in the tranquility of nature, creating the perfect atmosphere of serene relaxation. From adults to kids and even babies, Smith Fork Ranch truly has something for everyone. They offer a wonderful variety of relaxing to adventurous activities, some of our favorites being fly fishing, white water rafting, horseback riding, skeet shooting, hiking, and so much more. The variety and quality of activities kept our entire family entertained, and there was never a dull moment. Every meal was a delight, showcasing fresh, local ingredients that highlighted the valley's best flavors. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented, making dining an experience to look forward to every day. Even our young son, who is a very picky eater, enjoyed each meal catered by the amazing chefs to meet his every need. The staff at Smith Fork Ranch were nothing short of incredible, making our stay truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, they welcomed us with genuine warmth and enthusiasm, immediately making us feel right at home.

Every request was met with a smile and a genuine eagerness to ensure we had the best experience possible. Whether it was arranging activities, providing local insights, or simply checking in to see how we were doing, their attention to detail and dedication to guest satisfaction were unparalleled. A major highlight for us was the kids club activities. The staff were genuinely excited and happy to entertain our children, creating fun and engaging experiences that our kids absolutely loved.
