We usually book a room for the Kalispel/Whitefish area and this one time...we didn't. The whole town was booked (some sporting event). It was by sheer luck we found this place. We were quoted way-too-much for a honeymoon suite at a hotel in Kalispel. We got a lot more with the cabin and paid less here at Gaynor's. We only... more

Gaynors is far enough away from Whitefish to have a remote feel but only about a 15 minute drive. We saw lots of wildlife and sunsets can be brilliant. It is not a full service dude ranch. It is, however, a great place to rent horses, take nature walks, fish in stillwater river, have a Sunday barbeque, play with the... more

Our family went to Gaynor's last winter and being from California we didn't know what to expect! To our surprise it was the most memorable winter vacation we've ever had! We had so much fun we decided to come back this summer! Well, it was just as gorgeous in the summer! Don and Nancy are top notch hosts and their... more

Great cabin - very clean and well stocked with kitchen items. Very comfortable beds. Beautiful area - can't beat the scenery. Not great service - no breakfast service, internet did not work, and poor road/drive way conditions. I would not recomend travelling to Gaynor's in the winter without a 4x4 vehicle. more

During the winter peak season we do provide breakfast for our guests. After the season, our rates drop in half and we do not provide breakfast. Sorry you got the lower rates and no breakfast. Hopefully, we make it clear when you booked.

I must share what a wonderful experience Gaynor's RiverBend Ranch was. In October I spent a 4 day retreat at the ranch with other professional women. What a beautiful place! The cabins are very clean, well equipped, and the "western decor" is exceptional. It is the perfect setting for a peaceful getaway. The Gaynor Resort staff treated us like royalty.... more

You cant believe the number of times I have heard this. I have actually seen people cry when they have to leave! We have a magical place.

This place is a scam. There is no river. just a dried up creek. The owner will surely smack your credit card weather you stay or not. this place is a heaven for manure all right!! Do your homework before staying here!!!. It is a lie. map it- no river, shoe box cabin, no hodowns or nightly marshmellow roasts, just... more

We are sorry she fills this way. . .We certainly do our best to be the best hosts in the world. Many have said how beautiful our place is. Hope she comes back some day and takes another look.

Our 18 person family made lifetime memories at the ranch. The cabins are clean and comfortable, with plenty of room and (much-needed) washer/dryers in each cabin. Don and Nancy were wonderful hosts, relaxed and friendly without ever being intrusive. The trail rides were beautiful, and kid-appropriate (the little kids stayed in the arena) with sure-footed and mellow horses. The best... more

Loved it!

This is a terrifc place - clean roomy cabins well equipped on a beautiful ranch with lots of horses and land to walk/ride on and still close to skiing, Whitefish and Kalispell. The family that owns the ranch, the Gaynors, are the best part of the trip - that along with their fabulous home cooked breakfasts. They are a delightful... more

For people thinking of visiting Montana, this is the place you’re dreaming of. For people who’ve visited to Montana before, this is the place you wish you had gone. The cabins on the Gaynor RiverBend Ranch are great place for a family, or just for two. And Don and Nancy Gaynor are the best hosts in the Flathead Valley –... more
