For your comfort and privacy, we book small groups and treat them as family. Unlike traditional dude ranches, this cattle ranch does not cater to large groups of twenty-five-person plus nose-to-tail trail horse rides.
Horseback Riding for all Ages.
If horseback riding, being part of a cattle drive and enjoying the magnificent scenery of the Montana countryside is what you are dreaming of, then you will not be disappointed.
When our guest arrive at the Lazy E-L Ranch, they are assigned a horse, taught how to tack and groom and are expected to turn in "your horse" at the end of the day.
Experienced horseback riders will feel at home in the saddle on the E-L and will find that horseback riding while tracking a cow is an experience of a lifetime. If you are new to it or just a little rusty in the saddle, our crew can help you master basic horseback riding skills in the corrals before tackling the trails and the pace of a cattle drive.
Your kids will have so much fun becoming accomplished cowboys and cowgirls under the care of our guest wranglers.
If you enjoy fly fishing, at the Lazy E-L Ranch there is trout fishing on the five miles of private access to the West Rosebud River through the Lazy E-L Ranch. With just four rods allowed on the stream at any one time, this private wild stretch of the river is fished only by family and guests ensuring that you will often be the first person to hook that rainbow or brown trout.
Elk and deer hunting at the E-L is familiar territory to a herd of over 200 elk and endless mule and whitetail deer.
The Montana Wildlife is nature at its best. We have a variety of wildlife at or near the Lazy E-L Ranch; chances are you are likely to see black bear, moose, mountain lions, wolves, coyotes, sandhill cranes, bald eagles, and turkeys.
Many of us have traveled to various parts of the world, but we all agree that the most beautiful place is in our backyard just three miles outside of Roscoe, MT.
