BIG SKY, Mont.
Following the launch of its conference and event center in 2013, the 320 Guest Ranch in Big Sky, Mont., has now completed a renovation to its guest accomodations and public spaces.
"We want to offer both our corporate and leisure clients everything they need for a productive meeting, a family vacation, a romantic wedding or special event in an authentic Montana style," says John Richardson, general manager at 320 Guest Ranch.
The renovations included the treatment, preservation and restaining of the exteriors of all of the ranch's 58 cabins, log houses and mountain chalets. New tile, carpet, window treatments, easy chairs, sofas and mattresses were installed in each building. New headboards were custom-made by a local craftsman. Energy-efficient ceiling fans and new lamps were also added.
The ranch's renovation features a soft, neutral palette of brown and white complementing golden wood walls and wood-burning fireplaces, now fitted with mountain stone. On the walls are original photos of Montana wildlife by noted photographer Michael Haring.
The construction of a new greenhouse is underway to provide fresh produce for the ranch's popular 320 Steak House Restaurant.
The 320 Guest Ranch is nestled in the heart of the Gallatin River Valley, 15 minutes from Big Sky. The Gallatin Mountain Range and Gallatin National Forest surround the historic ranch and the Gallatin River, one of the world's top Blue Ribbon fly-fishing trout streams, flows directly through the property just steps away from river front cabin accommodations.
The ranch welcomes groups of up to 250 people, with a Conference Center and Banquet Hall that can be used in their entirety or broken down into smaller meeting rooms.
