Top Lodging: Rainbow Ranch Lodge, Big Sky

Rainbow Ranch Lodge

Big Sky, MT

Most people come to the Big Sky/Moonlight Basin area during the winter to seek out the "biggest skiing in America," but that’s far from the only activity available. One of the most unique ways to explore the Montana wilderness is on a dog sled trek. Situated on the banks of the Gallatin River, the intimate Rainbow Ranch Lodge is offering exactly that opportunity, with a half-day dog-sledding adventure for two as a part of a two-night stay between December 15-April 15. Rates start at $315 per night and include the guiding services of the experienced team at Spirit of the North, which provides the necessary instruction to handle the Alaskan huskies.
