What a fun vacation! Our hosts, Red Reflet owners Bob and Laurence, went above and beyond to make our visit to their property super special. There is a ton to do, lots of freedom and flexibility, awesome food, and a very down-to-earth, family-like feeling to the whole experience. Red Reflet property is about 2 hours outside of Cody and comprises approx. 29000 acres, with amazing topography and natural beauty. Some notes:

Accommodations
This is a ranch, not a 5-star hotel. The accommodations are quite comfortable, but casual. In fact, while the architecture of the place is outstanding, the interior design is probably too understated. The main lodge building is at the top of a hill, with gorgeous views. They have 4 chalets available for guests spread out across the property. We stayed in the  Ponds chalet, down the hill from the main lodge. It’s a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath unit with beautiful glass walls. Furnishings are casual and comfortable. The cabin has a fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, TV, hot tub, and deck. Daily housekeeping is available.

Food
You cook breakfast yourself in your cabin, which gives you flexibility to get up whenever you want. Lunch at 12:30PM and dinner at 7PM are both served at the main lodge. You drive your own ATV/side-by-side to get there. The food is quite delicious, plentiful, fresh, and unpretentious. Fish and elk in different preparations were highlights for our family. They were great accommodating our dietary restrictions. There is a good variety of wines from all over the world available at any time - and included in your rates.

Activities
Contrarily to other ranch experiences, you can do whatever you want whenever you want here. While this adds some awesome flexibility, it does trigger the need to know what are your choices. I wish we had a bit more of an overview when we checked in, but we were able to figure things out talking to the owners and other guests as well as reading reviews, their website, and the in-room guest binder. Over 5 days (6 nights), we did…
- horseback riding in arena and trails
- zip lining
- guided and solo ATV/side-by-side tours
- e-bike bicycle ride
- motorcycle dirt bike ride
- target shooting
- archery
- fishing
- hiking
- visit to the mountain cabin to see elks
- collecting eggs from the chicken coop
- movies in their home theater

The staff was super nice and helpful throughout and Bob and Laurence couldn’t have been more gracious. All in all, it was a fantastic and memorable vacation. Highly recommend it!

Like visiting family…

It is really hard to put into words what a great experience we had. We stayed at the ranch for 6 nights and wish we had stayed longer. We were in the panorama chalet which is beautiful, luxurious,  and had every amenity you could want. We did have a chance to look at the other three accommodations and they are great as well. The food is gourmet quality. We participated in many activities and enjoyed them all. There is so much to do and you can do as much or as little as you want. The property is beautiful and the use of the ATVs makes it easy to explore. With all of these great things, the biggest asset remains the staff. We really felt like we were visiting family. The owners are very hands on and truly care about your experience. The entire staff gets to know you and it seems that no request is too big. They are all very kind and caring and I could name them all and relate a story about each but that would take up too much space. We were sad to leave them.
Certainly an experience like this does not come at bargain prices but everything is included in the price including all activities, food, and beverages including top of the line wine and spirits. Don't forget to ask for the Lulu special. We did look at other similar properties before deciding and it is clear to me that you get true value here. 
Again, I really cannot say enough good things about our stay here. We hope to be able to return.

An amazing ranch

My significant other and I came here for a long Labor Day weekend and were so impressed with the beautiful cabins, the delicious meals and the breath-taking views. They run a very well kept ranch and I couldn't say enough kind things about the staff! My goodness were they on top of our every need.  Here are a few things we loved: 
 - being able to run around acres and acres of land on our own ATVs. We're both adventurously curious people and this really allowed us to go off on our own and explore 
- the private tour on the ATVs with the ranch owner, although it did get quite lengthy so probably could have been shortened a bit (but it is quite a large property so I get it)
- the beautiful, well trained horses. We thoroughly enjoyed our horseback riding.
- the swimming hole with ropes to swing into the water with and kayaks and paddle boards
- THE FOOD WAS AMAZING!! Wow were we impressed! 
- the fact that they had their own private landing strip we could fly into was SO convenient and they made sure to take care of our needs when we arrived and at departure

Honestly, you can't go wrong staying here. Although I do recommend staying away from political or COVID chatter with the owners if you're a Trump fan. Things did get quite intense at the dinner table as we did not see eye to eye on that front. I suppose in instance of politics, the customer is not always right? :) as they were not shy about sharing their position. I suppose it takes all kinds of kinds to make the world go round. 

I hope you enjoy a stay at Red Reflet as much as we did!

Wonderful Getaway with Breathtaking Views

.We chose the Red Reflet for a family getaway.  With 2 twenty-something sons, we need an active vacation yet something that mom would also enjoy.  We were all blown away by the great time we had in Ten Sleep, Wyoming.  This property appealed to us more than other Ranch options because of its intimate number of guests - they top out at around 30ish.  We made a great choice!  All the guests have their own "chalet" which is a beautiful little house.  We stayed in the Panoramic Chalet which had the most jaw-dropping views that we enjoyed from our deck every morning at breakfast.  The staff stocks your chalet with breakfast foods that you can tailor to your family's preferences each day.  
         The owners, Bob and Laurence, are very hands on.  We had the pleasure of dining with them every day as the lunches and dinners are family style.  The food was fantastic - thanks Clem and Charlie and the kitchen staff.   The staff paid special attention to our few dietary restrictions and always produced phenominal meals.  Bob and Laurence are warm, intelligent, personable and wonderful hosts!  They truly want you to have an amazing experience.  Laurence led us on a number of hikes and zipline adventures.   She was incredibly encouraging and active in making sure that people experience things out of their comfort zones!   I had a few special requests that she worked to arrange for me to make our stay even more memorable.
      There are an impressive number of activities to choose from and miles upon miles of trails to explore.  You can use ATV's which are needed to traverse the vast expanse of the ranch; or you can explore on horseback; or fish; hike, swim, shoot on the firing range, or just relax and enjoy the awesome scenery.  I had never ridden a horse before and we rode most of the days we were there, we enjoyed it so much!  Penny and JJ were wonderful, encouraging us on our rides and showing me how to enjoy the views from on top of the horse.   
     The Red Reflet is a working ranch so you will see all the horses, cows, chickens, sheep, working dogs (Copper and Percy were our two favorites) and cats around the property, in addition to all the other wildlife like deer, birds and Elk.  The ranch is so unbelievably gorgeous, the staff friendly and supportive, the food great, the activities varied and enjoyable ... it is truly a great experience.  We also had the chance to get to know the other guest at the ranch as we shared meals and activities.  We have only been home a day or two but we miss Red Reflet already!

Get ready for an AMAZING time!

We just left and we wish we were back already! My 10 year old daughter and I stayed for 5 days for our “girls only” trip. We could NOT have had a better trip. So much to do and so much fun, we regret not having more time there. Everything was top of the line. The Couples Chalet was immaculate! Very luxurious and comfortable. Gorgeous views from every room. Laurence and Bob really thought of everything anyone could want in a stay and then went above that even. We loved having ATVs to go wherever whenever we wanted. We liked being able to have our breakfast in the chalet before getting ready to start our fun filled days and then being able to relax there again when the day was over in the hot tub or on the deck looking at the stars in the clear sky. The views and the vast array of colors of the area are breathtaking. Other than planned lunches at 12:30 and dinner at 7:00(which we really looked forward to talking and sharing what we did that day) the rest of the day was set by whatever we wanted to do. Ask and you shall receive is pretty much the norm here. Every single person on the ranch was a joy to talk to and could not have been nicer and more accommodating. Even though we enjoyed the rope swings and the slide at the pond and a little shooting and archery, tennis and the pool, the majority of the time was on horseback. We were able to learn barrels in the arena and outside with the girls(my daughter was hooked!) and move cattle -definitely the highlights of our visit! Kristina(sorry if I spelled your name wrong) Nicole and Morgan were fantastic wranglers and horsewomen, who made us feel very safe and comfortable and were very interesting and fun to talk with. Tammie also did barrels with us and was so friendly to hang with, as was Clay on the cattle pushes. On a ride my daughter wasn’t feeling well so one of the girls rode back and brought a truck to drive us back to the ranch. While my daughter slept, I went down to lunch and the chef specially made a grilled cheese to send back with me, along with the crackers and Ginger Ale they had given me for her. Very caring staff and hosts and our whole stay we felt that. We were definitely pampered. Other highlights were zip lining and playing Bananagrams with Laurence. We are buying that game! We had a great variety of foods at every meal, which we always looked forward to finding out what we were having next because we knew it’d be spectacular! Not only was everything absolutely delicious but also beautifully presented and followed with amazing desserts. Laurence had been showing my daughter Origami & she was so proud to fold “sailboats” for our last dinner. The beauty of this ranch matches the beauty in the hearts of Lawrence and Bob. We felt like we were with family and hope to return with the guys in our family so we can all enjoy it together. Thanks for the priceless memories and for sharing your beautiful ranch with us Bob and Laurence. See you next time!                          
                                 Rhonda and Brogan Schmitz  


**A Stay BEYOND Amazing !!**

We are back home in New York and trying to adjust to normal life, after a week in the spectacular surroundings of the Red Reflet Ranch. Sometimes we even question if we were actually there, since all the elements of our trip were truly unbelievable: the lodgings, the food, the activities, the horses, the beautiful views, and of course the people.  Each staff member we met was more friendly, kind and accommodating than the last.  Laurence and Bob are both spectacular hosts and guides, and true naturalists; we feel privileged to have been able to spend some time and learn from them.   

Thank you so much for a simply stunning week; we look forward to returning!

10 stars!!

Bob and Lulu have left no stone unturned with this magical palace of splendor....  every detail is divine. From the food to the chalets to the outdoor activities, me and my children were in paradise from morning to night. From the ziplining to the fishing to the hiking to the relaxing and horseback riding and gardening, Red Reflet Ranch is an enchanted hub of all things earthy, elegant and slightly impossible to articulate. Plus, the smell of sage and mint and backdrop of majestic mountains is pretty mind-altering... and did I mention that the food is out of this world?

Five Star Amazingness

I had the pleasure of sharing 5 fabulous days in March at this gorgeous ranch with my sister, daughter, and two nieces and we all couldn't have been more delighted with everything they had to offer.  I wasn't sure how the snowstorm might affect our options, but it didn't slow us down a bit and just made the landscape all the more beautiful.  This place is a photographer's paradise!  We had so much fun riding the ATVs around the ranch, zip lining, and taking in some movies in the luxury theater.  We were lucky enough to see a herd of elk running close to our trail and visited the chicken coop for eggs in the morning.  One of the best reasons for visiting, however, is the food and wine!!  The chef and pastry chef are superb!  They strive to make each meal a "Wow" moment, and they certainly did not disappoint.  We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Bob and Laurence, who were such gracious and interesting hosts.  We were very spoiled during our visit and look forward to returning again soon.

Spectacular place for a family getaway!

This vacation was a celebration of my 50th birthday with long time girlfriends.  I specifically chose this ranch due to its ratings and the availability of renting a VRBO instead of doing the all-inclusive thing, although it was certainly something we heavily considered for weeks before committing to anything.  Money was never the issue; being able to cruise Wyoming while out there WAS.  
Each of the 5 of us had other day-trip interests, and so we agreed the VRBO would be the best arrangement.  We planned to cook at the house and have a dinner or two on-site at the ranch.  We had rented our own vehicle for the week. The VRBO property was nice and clean and the property around it was beautiful and full of wildlife-antelope, deer, cattle, rabbits, etc
I had specifically discussed a la carte activities on the ranch for MONTHS with the guest manager (who, by the way, is amazingly sweet and enthusiastic and tried hard to accomodate our group-my suspicion is that the owner was not happy with her attention to our group).  We wanted to do some on-site things and still be able to day-trip in other parts of Wyoming.  Use of the ATVs was one particular interest we had (and I would recommend), but ATVs are given to each on-site ranch guest first priority.  TOTALLY understandable.  However, the ranch was NOT filled to capacity during our stay and the owner made some super snide comments to us about our thinking we would be able to use them for "free".  Since I had made the arrangements and had the months-long discussions with the guest manager, I feel 200% confident that she knew that we were more than willing to pay, not just for ATV use for a half or whole day, but for each and every activity that we chose to purchase from them.  Not once did we balk at their prices, however we found that our alternate plans were JUST as awesome, and about 2/3 the price.  
The owner seems at first bite to be a guardedly pleasant, but a bit pretentious, man.  He subsequenty made it clear in almost every conversation with any of us that "if we had chosen to spend $725 a day per person, we could do what we wanted" and that basically WE had been a pain to deal with and that they had bent over backwards for us.  UMMMM.  The guest manager did so I believe, and frankly the property handyman did as well (seems the hot tub was kind of a forgotten part of the VRBO and was quite a mess when we decided to go down to use it).  No nicer man exists in the world.  But I digress....
The first day was a wash; we were unable to schedule anything as there were "guests arriving that day".  Since this ranch is not a set week schedule, guests come and go for as many or as few days as they wish. Why was there nothing we could do?  When asked, the other owner stated that we would not have been allowed to schedule anything in the days prior to our trip, and so making arrangements ahead of time would have not been possible.  Huh?  
We did drive a large portion of the 27,000 acre property that day exploring and later did a 5 mile hike to some high ridges to kill some time.  It was absolutely breathtaking.  The properties on-site were GORGEOUS.  The views are amazing.  Clearly these people have good taste.  It's simply unfortunate that this couple owns it.
On the second day we had decided to take advantage of some open holes in the schedule to do some shooting, fishing and caving.  After making the schedule for the next day, I received a call back stating that we needed to move some things around in order to accomodate guest priority, I'm assuming.  We were totally agreeable to the rearrangement.  I then received an email late that night saying that caving would not be something we could do as there was no guide and they didn't feel we would be able to find the cave(s).  Why would you offer this if you aren't prepared to make the accomodation?
The next morning, upon arrival at the ranch property, the fishing gear we were assured would be ready for us with instructions to get to the fishing ponds was a few poles with a lure or two on some but not on others and no instructions.  No one "knew we were coming".  The guest manager was unavailable as she was out on-site. The owner took this opportunity to go into his "$725 a day" spiel again.  Since caving and fishing were out, we decided to cancel our plans to use the archery and riflery ranges that afternoon and go on a day trip.  We can fish and shoot at home.
The third day we had been told we could do some cattle ranching and horseback riding.  I honestly was not willing to continue to waste my vacation time as I was sure that I would receive another email or call saying that we would not be accomodated for this very important one of my activity choices.  We decided to leave early and try to replan our vacation.  This was not easy, but several other ranches in the state were more than willing to help us out.  Not all of them had availability, but if they didn't they gave us contact information for other ranches that might have space for us.  They could NOT have been nicer or more helpful, and by no means did they owe us the hospitality. We simply wanted to participate in some day activities and some ranches DO accomodate this.
Hospitality is part of what you are paying for when you plan something like this.  The 5 of us MET because we were in the hospitality business in all kinds of roles years ago in a city that has been rated repeatedly to be the best city in the world and in the country.  ALL of us are still in customer service on some level 30 years later.

Of note are Blackwater Creek Ranch, Klondike Ranch, The Hideout and Tangle Ridge Ranch.  Wonderfully nice, helpful and sorry that we had been let down.  They invited us to consider them in the future and said we would be welcome anytime.  They had PLENTY on their own plates with their own guests, but took time to help and even call back with suggestions.  
Apparently Red Reflet has a reputation for this sort of poor hospitality from the owners because many MANY people around the state were in the know--all the way to Jackson and beyond.

What I liked best?  The fossils, the views and the wildlife
What I liked least?  The condescending, pretentious, arrogant attitude.  No thanks.

The long and the short of it is that MY money is no better or worse than the next guy, including the owners of this ranch.  We had planned to spend money, but I am SO THANKFUL that we did NOT end up giving these people $16,000+ for our vacation.  We ended up doing some super fun things we had not looked into, did the day trips we wanted and blew our money in other places with other ranchers.  I was let down, but fortunately we are all resourceful women and we came out on the other end of this ordeal having had a real blast!
