A 1,000-acre ridge ranch above Jackson — 112 accommodations with the valley's finest unobstructed Teton views. More relaxed than Four Seasons and better suited to guests choosing space and scenery over ski proximity.
Why We Chose It
Spring Creek Ranch sits on a 1,000-acre ridge above the valley — the kind of sprawling ranch property that defines the Jackson Hole landscape, with accommodations that range from standard hotel rooms to private multi-bedroom cabins spread across the property's pine and sagebrush terrain. The Granary restaurant, perched at the ridge's highest point, has the best panoramic Teton view of any restaurant in the valley — a 180-degree west-facing outlook across the Snake River plain to the peaks. The property's wildlife safari program is a consistently productive in the region: the East Gros Ventre Butte terrain is prime wildlife habitat, and the ranch's naturalist guides understand where the elk herds, moose, and bears are likely to be. In winter, horse-drawn sleigh rides through the snow-covered ranch are a weekly tradition. Spring Creek Ranch is the most recommended property for travelers who want the authentic Wyoming ranch experience alongside genuine luxury amenities.

- Wildlife safari program: the East Gros Ventre terrain is prime habitat for elk, moose, bears, and bison
- Horse-drawn sleigh rides in winter: the most traditional Wyoming ranch experience available
- 112 rooms to private multi-bedroom cabins — the best range of accommodation types in the valley
