The beach on Flathead Lake is always a popular gathering spot on hot afternoons.  Sailing or boating across the clear blue water, participating in a canoe race, or enjoying a swim in Flathead Lake are all exhilarating ways to spend an afternoon.  Water skiing, boogie boarding, and wake boarding are included in your dude ranch vacation package, as is the use of canoes, kayaks, and sailboats for individual adventures on the lake.

Sailing
There are a variety of sailboats to choose from at the ranch.  The smallest sailboat is 14 feet up to our 27' Olympic Class Solings.  The Solings are more advanced boats that a novice can learn to sail during their stay.  Our waterfront staff is always available to assist you.

Also available at the ranch are two historic 51' Q-class racing sloops, the Questa and the Nor 'Easter.  Q-boats were built in 1928 & 1929 as prototypes for Americas Cup boats.  Our sailing staff can take you on Flathead Lake for 1-2 hour sails, aboard these majestic sailboats.

A variety of recreation is available each day from the main dock, including boating, water skiing, wake boarding and boogie boarding.  Instruction for beginners is available from our experienced waterfront staff.  Private wake boarding lessons can also be arranged by experienced boarders at an additional cost.

Fishing is available in the lake or on the local rivers and streams.  Guided fly-fishing, lake fishing, float fishing and wading are all options.  The guided trips are not included in the weekly package.

Canoes, kayaks and fishing boats are all available to you anytime during the day.

Lake cruises take place several times each week for sightseeing around the Flathead Lake. Or savor the sights while boating Bigfork Bay.  A favorite cruise is up the Flathead River to view Bald Eagles and Osprey.  The lodge cruiser can accommodate up to 18 people.
