The kitchen is stocked with coffee, sugar, tea, seasonings, and cooking basics. Do you enjoy trying local products? The Canyon Store in Wolf Creek has a nice selection of Made in Montana products as well as basic grocery needs.

At the advice of some great river guides, we changed up two of the larger bedrooms to include 2 full beds each instead of one queen. We are excited to offer 8 separate beds- fill up the boats, friends!

We have added seating in the living room to make it easier to sit the whole crew down for a movie at the end of a big day on the river or lake.

We have cards, cribbage boards, dice, books and puzzles to add to your evening enjoyment. We would love to help make your stay one to remember!

Don't worry about limited supply of TP, paper towels, ect. Supplies are included in the stay. The house is ready for your crew to come relax. Stop by Sam's Club or Costco or your favorite grocery store - we have a HUGE fridge and open pantry for you to store everything during your stay.

This was our second summer staying at this property for a fly fishing trip with Riverknightoutfitters. The house is in an amazing location close to the lake and fishing. Listening to the elk bugle and seeing all the wildlife on property was a highlight. Yard is huge for game night and the house is perfect for a group.

Host profile image
The historic Ox Bow Ranch owns this awesome vacation home. Both Sentinel Rock Ranch and the Ox Bow hold great Wolf Creek history.
The Ox Bow runs registered Angus and commercial cattle. We have an annual bull sale in March at the Sentinel Rock Ranch. We primarily use the house for housing customers who come to visit and during sale time to host a pre-sale dinner, buyers and business partners that help us with the sale.

Why they chose this property

Quick access to the interstate, the river and the lake. Just minutes from the gas station, store and our two pubs in town.
Space for parking, new furniture and people here in town if you need anything.
Gorgeous view of the Prickly Pear area. If you like livestock - there is a good chance you will see the ranch crew at work from the house.

What makes this property unique

You can say you stayed at the Ox Bow!
You won't find another house around so easy to find, close to the river and lake. Can sleep up to 12 people with 4 queen beds and 4 double beds. Couples with or without kids? You will be happy to find great sleeping accommodations where you will all sleep well.
