Hass' - ..."a combination of great guides, beautiful scenery, good waters, and of course the fishing that makes a stay at YVR so much fun. With the different kinds of waters, it keeps the fishing interesting and it gives us a chance to experience different techniques. The guides are very accommodating and they're a lot of fun. We'll be back!"

Lupatkin's - "The staff is charming and solicitous. The food is excellent - the best I've had at a fishing lodge. The setting is spectacular and the fishing was great!"

Dougherty's - "Yellowstone Valley Ranch was the perfect place to take a much needed vacation and the staff did an outstanding job of making sure everything ran smoothly. The fishing and the service were both first class."

Hatch - "I am over the moon about Eric Adams our fishing guide. He will be rated at the top in my most favorite guides list. The staff was marvelous and spoiled us to death. They were friendly, informative, convivial and offered more than just service - they really gave of themselves with their knowledge, experience and warmth."

Monaghan's - "Eric Paramore was the most excellent guide very personable and knowldgeable. We were so comfortable, you made us feel like family. This was our best vacation ever!!"

Goebel's - "Perry Coleman is an excellent guide and really adds to the Yellowstone Valley Ranch experience. The improvements to service and the fishing experience are great and made for a very fun visit."

Barnette's - "This was our 8th year to visit YVR. It was possibly the best! The management team is clearly focused on making this the best expereince in all of Montana. We look forward to year number nine!"

Merrell's - "My stay at YVR was awesome, all of the staff and guides made me feel very comfortable in an environment that was new to me. Our guide was excellent in helping make a 1st time fly fishing experience awesome. The Yellowstone River was beautiful and fishing was very good."
