Pack your camera. Grab your boots. Bring a hat. I can't wait to share this magical place with you...
The all-inclusive price (minus airfare and gratuities for the staff) is $2,700 per person.

What's included:
*About the Lodge: The main lodge, built in 1928, is the center of the Blacktail Ranch and retains the rustic beauty and warmth of a traditional western lodge. The kitchen, lounge, dining room and two bathrooms, men and women’s, are on the lower level. The bathrooms are equipped with multiple sinks, toilets and showers to accommodate groups. Guests also enjoy the free Wi-Fi Internet, and a spacious lounge with fireplace and satellite television. There are seven guest rooms and a full bathroom on the second floor. Each bedroom is simply furnished with beds, closets to hang your gear, bureaus, and nightstands with reading lights.
Not included:
Cancellation policy: Due to the non-refundable nature of reserving venues for events and the limited spaces available in workshops, a cancellation made 30 days or less from the dates of an event is non-refundable. Fifty percent of the event fee will be refunded for a cancellation made between 60 to 31 days prior to the scheduled event. Any cancellation made 61 days prior to a schedule event is fully refundable, minus any processing fees.
The “Simple Agenda, Agenda”
We’ll spend the mornings in Equus sessions where you’ll have opportunities to be coached on anything you want--work, family, career, relationships. Then we’ll break for a tasty and nutritious lunch back at the Lodge.
After lunch, we’ll have activities for two days of your stay. For the last two days, your afternoons will be free to enjoy your complimentary massage, fish, hike, ride, or just enjoy some quiet time.
Evenings we’ll gather around the fire pit. We’ll chat and share stories. We'll keep it easy so you can maximize and integrate your experience and your time.
And as always, we’ll laugh and connect and make big plans.
NOTE: No horse experience is required for this retreat.
Equus coaching is conducted on the ground with client safety as a priority. No riding experience? The Blacktail Ranch can accommodate all levels of riders for their trail rides, from first timers to seasoned riders.
A note about the schedules: We make our daily plans based on weather primarily and secondarily, on the desires of the group.
