Bison Creek Ranch has been a family owned business located within Traditional Blackfeet Territory just miles west of East Glacier Park, Montana. Tucked amidst the aspens and the pines off of Highway 2, you’ll be sure to find the Schauf Family hard at work or playing, they often intermingle. And rightly so, with A-Frames, cabins, The Beaver Lodge, RV Parking and a short season to operate within, there’s a lot to be done between maintaining and managing properties, enjoying our surroundings and our time with family and traditions. Bison Creek offers a view you can’t find anywhere else on the planet; ancient views of a moutain-scape unrivaled and known to many as the southern border of Glacier National Park. The properties our family manage are available for guests traveling through, visiting, and working near Glacier National Park during the months of May through September. Nearby local communities provide unique shopping and dining amenities, and Browning boasts some of the finest cultural landscape recognized world wide as the Blackfeet Nation. Breakfast, lunch, dinner options are available in the nearby communities and offer grocery stores and Glacier National Park Gift shops a plenty. We’re happy to point you in the direction to some of our favorites.
For rustic at its best Bison Creek Ranch is the place to come. Cell phone service is very limited, like none! Wireless internet is available in or around the dining room, T.V.’s do not come standard in every room, and our cabins were built when the railroads were being built. Known as Gandy Dancers, these cabins housed workers maintaining the railroads back in the 1930’s. Of course we’ve done some revamping and put some electricity and plumbing in them, but all in all they are still very rustic. Porches on each cabin and A-Frame provide a comfortable, quite, relaxing view of Glacier National Park while listening to Bison Creek babble in the early months.
Traditional Blackfeet territory has always encompassed what has become know to most as Glacier National Park. The southern border of this destination is visible from every angle at Bison Creek. All of the sights and adventures of this area are a short drive away. The Eastern entrance to the park located in the town of St. Mary is approximately 30 miles off, and with a scenic drive over Highway 49 (Looking Glass) it’ll seem like no time at all. The western entrance to the park located in the town of West Glacier is about 57 miles along Highway 2. Along this drive you can visit the Goat Lick and watch summer time rafters float down the Middle Fork of the Flathead River. Visit the Browning, Montana, central hub of the great Blackfeet Nation and partake in the rich history that surrounds us.
For a fun family friendly time whether you are from Montana or visiting from another place, you’ll find Bison Creek Ranch to be a great place to hang your hat for a few nights. If you have any questions or would like to make reservations, please contact us and we’ll do our best to help you out.
