5 stars just isn’t enough to describe how amazing The Meadows on Rock Creek is! My husband and I just got back from our honeymoon here, and we truly can’t rave about it enough. First of all, it’s absolutely beautiful and clearly well-maintained. The cabins are cozy, clean, and have everything you could possibly want.

If you’re looking for a place that feels corporate or transactional, this isn’t the place for you. Every staff member goes above and beyond to make sure you get the most out of your experience - and on top of their incredible hospitality, they’re just genuinely great people. I can’t count how many times my husband and I hung out in the lodge after an activity and ended up having hour-long conversations with staff members about anything and everything. We truly feel like we left with new lifelong friends.

And don’t even get me started on the food...I could talk about it for hours! If you can get my husband to rave about a salad, you know you’re doing something right. We didn’t have a single meal during our weeklong stay that we didn’t absolutely love. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and so creatively curated. We looked forward to every meal because we knew it was going to be amazing.

This is a place you can feel good about spending your hard-earned money at...it's very clear that they care about what they do and the people they serve. It's hard to believe that they can get any better than what they are now, but we hear there are some exciting things on the horizon, and we will absolutely be back to experience them!

We had the BEST time here. When we arrived at the property, my ears were buzzing from how peacefully quiet it is. Each staff member goes above and beyond to help make each day feel like the perfect combination of home and vacation. My husband and I did fly fishing, horseback riding, archery, and shooting. Though there were other guests who were no stranger to these hobbies, I was a novice. Each guide helped me to feel comfortable in learning and left me feeling like I had acquired a new skill. The food was outstanding, and gave us a great opportunity to share meals with new people and make friends. The accommodations were so spacious yet cozy, equipped with everything we needed. I will continue to recommend this beautiful oasis to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Thank you MORK staff!

TEN STARS!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My husband and I just spent five incredible days at The Meadows on Rock Creek Guest Ranch outside of Philipsburg, Montana, to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, and I can honestly say it was the trip of a lifetime.

Fly fishing was a big part of why we chose this ranch. My husband is much more advanced, and Zach and Henry gave him tips and new techniques that he loved. At the same time, they were wonderful with me as a beginner and made it easy and fun to learn. It was such a great balance for both of us.

One of my favorite moments was trying archery on my own with Henry, who was so patient and encouraging — he made the whole experience a blast. Beyond that, we went horseback riding, shot sporting clays and long guns, and even mined for sapphires. Every single day had something fun and different to do.

And the food! Chef’s Michael and Cleo outdid themselves — three gourmet meals a day that rivaled anything I’ve ever had at a five-star restaurant. I almost cried when I woke up at home this morning and had to make my own coffee and breakfast.

Will, his staff, guides, and chefs all went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and celebrated. We will absolutely be back, and we’ll be telling everyone we know about this special place.

What an amazing place! 1st class service all the way and some of the most beautiful landscape you can possibly see. The owners didnt overlook one detail and it shows. Thank you for an absolutely wonderful time. You guys are the best.

I took my 3 boys for our annual fly fishing trip and this place was absolutely amazing. From the fishing to the lodging to the food, everything was top notch. However, the best thing about The Meadows are the people. You will not find a nicer and more gracious group than these folks. They were awesome! God willing, we will be back in the future.

The entire staff was awesome and attentive! They catered to the novice and the expert! Great place and we will definitely be returning.

My husband and I just returned from a magical few days at The Meadows. Us “city folk” had always dreamed of exploring Montana and its offerings, but this exceeded anything we imagined. The accommodations were lovely; darling fully furnished cottages with a spectacular clubhouse/ dining area all looked out across a beautiful meadow with Rock Creek bubbling in the background. The service was top notch with every attention to detail handled by Will and his staff. The food was incredible; what a gem Chef Casey is! He’s a master at developing flavors and creating beautiful dishes using local meats and fresh vegetables. His potatoes are legendary, and his cobblers are the best I’ve ever had! The quality of the food and wine are first class. The all inclusive aspect allowed us to try many new things. Fly fishing was fantastic, and our guide, Henry, was very patient with us newbies. His instructions miraculously saw us both catching cutthroat trout. We also did archery (super fun!), horseback riding, and had a ton of fun doing some distance shooting. I was very intimidated, but with fabulous instruction, felt relaxed and really enjoyed it. We enjoyed some hikes and gem mining to round out our time. Highly recommend a getaway to The Meadows.

Five stars are not enough to give for our experience at The Meadows. From our initial contact with Will, everything went smoothly. The hospitality of Will and his staff is incredible. Our cabin was wonderful, the views were breathtaking, the bed was comfortable and every meal was delicious. Lane was a terrific guide who provided us with two days of excellent fishing. I cannot say enough about our stay here which exceeded all of our expectations. We cannot wait to visit again. Thank you to the staff at The Meadows for an unforgettable experience!

Came with my son for some special time together fishing. The fishing was excellent, but well exceeded by the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff who could not do enough to make our stay fun, educational and comfortable. Best place I’ve visited in years!
