State Wrestling

We stayed here for the Wyoming High School State Wrestling tournament and it was great! We had plenty of room for our four adult children along with their sposes and the 2 grand kids. It was clean and comfortable for what we needed. We only wished we would of had more time to enjoy it! Ruth the owner was very sweet and helpful. Looking forward to staying here next year if we get the chance!

The view is incredible

The house was just what we needed for the holiday. It was close to town yet had a country feel, not to mention right next to the river! The host was amazing and we can’t wait to stay again.

Cozy Lodge on the Platte River

We enjoyed our week stay at the Red Butte Ranch very much. It was spacious, clean, had a fully stocked kitchen and the host (Ruth) was amazing. The location was great, located just a few miles out of Casper yet quiet and serene. We plan to return next summer and if available would book the RBR again.

Great Fishing Getaway

The lodge was the perfect place for our fishing weekend. Having private water access right out the backdoor was amazing (and lots of fish too). This was the perfect place for us to get away from the busyness of life, enjoy the stars at night, and just be for a few days. Ruth was great, extremely welcoming and kind. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will absolutely be back!
