Lewis & Clark Cabin at the Vermillion Ranch

The Vermillion Ranch is located in a stunning and somewhat remote location; however, the location was once a stop for the Corps of Discovery Expedition, otherwise known as the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Second Lieutenant William Clark spent a day in 1806 watering his horses the mouth of Sweetgrass Creek and remarked on the abundance of wildlife in the area.

Cutting one hundred-plus years ahead, the Vermillion Ranch saw a few settlers before the Vermillion family purchased the property in 1971. After restoring the Lewis & Clark Cabin, which was built in 1878 this charming cabin became a vacation rental in 1988 and continues to be a perfect spot for families, honeymooners, and explorers.

The Lewis and Clark Cabin consists of two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen and living room sleeping 5 comfortably. A large sunny deck and screened-in porch draw you out to the surroundings, which boast dramatic views of the Crazy Mountains, the Absaroka Mountains, and the Yellowstone River valley. Each room has been furnished with a cozy Western feel and includes all the amenities for a comfortable Montana vacation. Wi-fi and washer/dryer are included.
