Best-Ever Family Gatherings

Nothing is more important than family. They see us through good times and bad. Show the people you love how much you care. What better way to show them how much they mean to you than to spend quality time together? And at what better place than The Hideout at Flitner Ranch, a year-round, upscale guest ranch offering various accommodations?

In conjunction with Shell Lodge Event & Adventure Company, The Hideout offers several lodging facilities for your family gathering or family reunion at the Flitner Ranch. Whether you prefer to have adventure by day but luxury at night or more rustic accommodations, choose among The Hideout’s varied offerings:

• The main lodge, cabins and casitas, barn & arena, with activities and amenities of The Hideout, overlooking the village of Shell, Wyoming.
• The grandeur of the historic Lodge at Trapper Creek, a favored site for family reunions and weddings and corporate retreats. Nestled at the mouth of Trapper Creek Canyon, guarded by the red cliffs of Needle Rock.
• Snowshoe Lodge -- best lodge in the Big Horns -- with an alpine flair, perched trailside leading up into the Cloud Peak Wilderness Area
• The Upper Hideout, an even more secluded set of lodgings within tall pines of the pristine Big Horn Mountains.
• Rustic cabins in wilderness areas of the ranch -- absolutely authentic -- a few with their original woodstove and pots & pans, still used as upland cow camps by Flitner Ranch hands.
