The listing said there was a tv. There was, but we couldn’t get any channels and the office was closed the first evening we tried to use it. The bedding was many years old and needs updating. The pillows were horrible, old, lumpy. They need to be thrown out and replaced. There needs to be more lighting in the bathroom and a mirror above the sink. It took me 10 minutes to put my contacts in because I simply couldn’t see. There were no wash clothes in the bathroom. We removed the “air freshener” right away as I’m allergic to scents like that, plus it smelled horrible. Also, I believe when air freshener type devices are used that they are trying to cover up existing odors, which I’m sure was the case. We only stayed there for 1 out of the 3 nights booked and chose to stay at a much nicer hotel in town. We lost a lot of money booking this place and obviously wouldn’t ever stay there again. It was a BIG waste of money. The description was extremely misleading. A refund offer would be appreciated.

we were unaware of the restaurant not being opened one reason we picked is, so we did not have to drive more than we had to. It is not handicap accessible so i had to drive my mom closer to the bathroom and staff was not friendly about me doing that. I signed up for 3 people and at the last-minute my sister decided to join us. there was no one there to tell them that. We decide it was too far from hospital and decided to move into town, so i called to see if we could get our money back due to the circumstances and that is when they made me feel like i was a criminal for not telling them my sister would be with us. I will never go back, and I will not recommend this place to anyone. and I know a lot of people.

Great cozy cabin to glamp

My stay was incredible. It was such a cute little ranch. The staff I met was super nice, super helpful. Arriving was a bit overwhelming because I didn’t know my way but I was guided and helped really fast. It was super comfortable, extra cozy. I didn’t expect the room to be squeaky clean because it’s a ranch but overall it was a great stay. Seeing Natasha(the bison) every morning was really cool.

The setting was nice. I enjoyed the communal aspect of the TP and tent area. Met some nice people there. However, the I didn’t like how the owners kept their animals. The horse pen, cow pen, and buffalo pen were overcrowded and not well kept. Too many animals in too small a space.

Contacted them the day of to confirm it was okay for a late check in. The employees were great. The bed was alright, walking to the restroom at night was a little much but the place feels very safe. The horses and bison on the ranch were all fun to see and pet.

Rustic but comfortable.

This place has so much potential but the owner is over her head. We stayed in a teepee expecting a glamping experience as the description says. When you crawl into the teepee there are two beds & a bedside table. They tell you there is a battery operated lantern but they evidently don’t check their batteries regularly. Ours was dead. Since you do have to walk quite a way to the “bath house”, no flashlight is a problem. Lucky for us, while we were there they were having electric problems at the bathhouse so they opened one of the cabins for us to use. The beds were comfortable but go prepared for camping, not glamping. Breakfast wasn’t great but better than most hotels, you get to order from a menu.

Breakfast was hand-made to order in a classy dining room full of antique and historical displays. Gift shop had many unique items for sale.

Good Luck If You Choose This “Ranch”

When you read what is included in the tent stay at Lonesome Dove on Hotels.com you think you’re going to be “Glamping”…37 inch TV and all the other amenities it says it has! It has none of them except for the beds in the tent and the incredible breakfast! Other than that…which isn’t enough to warrant the price paid nothing they said was available was actually available! There are 4 tents with beds and 4 Teepee tents with beds! There is one women’s bathroom and one men’s! On the second morning we went to the bathhouse and there was no electricity and when you call the number you’re supposed to call it goes to voicemail and the message center is full! Had to go bang on the owners door to get someone to help! It took almost an hour to get electricity in the bathhouse and it kept shutting off and on! It appears they want to be profitable…hence the high price for a tent with beds but they do NOT have their act together yet! We did go horse back riding there and it was a wonderful experience! At breakfast you can choose to sit alone or with others and we made lifetime friends sitting with others! Also the road into the place is primitive!
