“Take a boy and a girl to the beach for a week and ask them ten years later the name of it; they will have forgotten. Take them to a ranch, and they will remember its name and the name of their horse for the rest of their lives.” -Gene Kilgore
We invite you to come & visit. Experience an authentic
Jackson Hole Dude Ranch, that you too will want to revisit in memories, in pictures and in person.
In 1925, the year Moose Head Ranch was homesteaded, Jackson Hole was a land of pioneers and ranch families who worked hard to live in such a beautiful, pristine setting. The Ranch was purchased in 1967 by John Mettler and is now in the capable third generation hands of Chris and Lindsay Davenport, who grew up on the ranch and are now following their parents, Louise and Kit, who are retiring after many years. Eddy Edmiston also grew up at Moose Head, and has taken over the ranch manager position when his father, Dave, retired after 37 years. For both management and guests, there’s something about this Jackson Hole Dude Ranch that gets in your blood and keeps you coming back …. again and
again.
Saddle up and go for a morning, afternoon or an all day ride. Moose Head’s minimum riding age is 6. Families and couples ride in small groups always accompanied by a wrangler.
Don’t feel like riding?
Try fly-fishing on one of our well stocked ponds. We have the equipment and would love to teach you if you have the desire to learn. The more experienced angler may want to fish the Snake River, which is easily accessible from the Ranch.
Take a light hike down to the river, or simply relax and enjoy the splendor of the Grand Tetons from your porch. Challenge your kids to a game of horseshoes or croquet. Play a friendly game of volleyball. After dinner, go for a drive to look for elusive moose that
come out at dusk. Join other guests and the crew for a friendly game of softball. Watch the sun set over the Tetons from your cabin deck or porch.
Moose Head accommodates approximately 44 guests in comfortable and well appointed cabins that are scattered amongst the cottonwoods and pines. Many overlook our stocked trout ponds. Most have wood burning stoves and all are equipped with small refrigerators and coffee machines, and ice is delivered daily. Flowers are an important part of Moose Head, and hanging baskets can be found on cabin porches. Numerous well tended planters are everywhere and wildflowers are especially abundant in the Park as well as on the ranch.
With your stay at Moosehead Ranch all your meals are included.
At Moose Head our philosophy is that good food is just as important as good horses. We take pride in our food, having been featured in Gourmet Magazine. It’s easy to eat healthy with the many choices we offer at every meal.
