The last time me, my wife and our son were on horses we were at a dude ranch in southwestern Utah in 2003. Since we were all going to be in Wyoming on Vacation together we definitely decided that a horseback ride was a must!! My wife found the Mill Iron on the internet and through TripAdvisor reviews. We signed up for the two hour ride (that ended up being about 2 hours 20 minutes). Kim Wheeldon (1-307-733-6390, kimmillironranch@gmail.com, www. millironranch.net) was very helpful although hard to reach at times. Mill Iron Ranch is located 10.5 miles south of Jackson on Highway 89-191. From the Albertsons grocery store, go straight south 10.5 miles. You will see a Blue and White Highway sign (we never did see this sign) on the right hand side of the Highway that say Mill Iron Ranch, Tourist Activities. Turn left onto Horse Creek Road, and come up that road 1.2 miles (unimproved dirt road) where you will see the Mill Iron Ranch entrance gate. After we arrived, we checked in and took care of our bill (Kim accepts Credit Cards). The 18% gratuity was added into the bill even though we were a party of 3 (I had no problem with that). They hooked us up with three horses that were somewhat matched to 1) our lack of skill as riders and 2) ours sizes. They have a weight limit of 230 pounds. Our group was led by a very nice and pretty cowgirl (sorry, I forget the name). She led us out of the ranch an up we went (about 2000 ft above the ranch site). The ride was mostly up a narrow, rocky and many times muddy trail that meandered through the forest. We stopped at times to rest a bit. There was a stretch before the high point of the ride that we went across a slope that was very steep on one side (could be very anxiety producing). At the top we were grouped with our families and the guide took pictures. There is no getting off of the horses and we brought water with us (the ranch provides little sacks to carry the water). You know what they say about "What goes up" - well after about 10 minutes we headed back down via a different route. Going down was more difficult on me then going up. I should have worn leather gloves as the trees and brush were in close proximity to the trails. At times I had to push off the tree to provide clearance for my leg. One time I had to avoid some branches and the back of my hand got cut up in the process. I survived!! Overall our horses were very gentle. After we got back to the corral we were helped off the horse (my legs didn't want to work for a few seconds).

My daughter and I took a half day ride. The horses were sound and confident. I rode a nice Dun gelding named "Roy". He was just superb! BEST trail ride I've ever been on. We have horses and ride a lot. This half day ride is not for sissies, but the views are worth it! The staff and Kim & Chauncey were wonderful. I highly recommend this ranch for your next visit to Jackson Hole, WY.

After a pleasant horse drawn sled ride around the ranch a welcomed meal of chips, salad and the star of the show a 36 oz T bone steak cooked to perfection. Great family operation with father, mother, son and daughter their to make the experience memorable.

Enjoyed a sleigh ride around the working ranch as Toby told us all about the area, his home and family. Dinner was the largest T-bone I had ever seen with the trimmings.

Went on the 2 hour trail ride with Justin. My wife daughter and I had the time of our life. Plently of wildlife and an incredible view at the top We stayed for the dinner that was equally spectular. Justin gave us an oral history of the ranch and the people who run it. This is the real deal with a family run operation since 1921. The owners Chancy and Kim couldn't have been nicer and Justin is a hell of a horseman. Great value and a highlight of our trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton

We recently had 38 people horseback riding over 2 days, but we also had a large evening event with 113 people. The horseback riding was a great mountain ride with amazing views that all enjoyed. Our dinner was wonderful with more food than most could eat! Great experience all around!!

we went as a family. Chancy, Mrs. Chancy and cobe were the epitome of down home hospitality. Cobe took us on the sleigh ride and gave us in site into wild life in Wyoming. We saw deer and elk, beautiful horses , donkeys, mules and got to take great photos.Back at the lodge Chancy grilled up one and a half inch steaks so tender you could cut them with a fork and so flavorful no one even consider steak sauce, we had a fresh salad, and the most perfect baked potato this side of the tetons. The cake for dessert was rich and most .We had enough left to take home.All of us enjoyed our visit there and recommend it highly. You won't find better hostsOr more down to earth, true to life folks anywhere.

Never wrote a review. This was the best adventure ever! Horseback riding at its finest. The view was amazing. Spectacular! The staff is probably the nicest people I have ever meant. Our guide was extremely kind and knowledgable. I would totally recommend the ride and dinner. The best steak and fixins I have ever had.Please consider this as a must if you go to Jackson.

We attended a wagon ride/dinner at the ranch on Valentines Day. What a fun time! Real cowboys cook incredibly thick, delicious steak dinner. This is a family business, with everyone pitching in, including the kids who distributed cupcakes and chocolate dipped strawberries for dessert. Live music rounded out an awesome, real west evening. Will definitely be back!
