Beautiful lakeside retreat - Perfect for the adventuresome family -pet friendly

The Lake House at Picture Rock Ranch is located in the stunning Torrey Valley Canyon 12 miles from the town of Dubois. The completely rebuilt historic cabin features two bedrooms with views of Tail Lake, one and 1/2 baths, full kitchen and laundry, a screened in front porch, wood stove, and a pull out coach to sleep up to six people.

Enjoy the serenity of the water at your front door and the beauty of the Ross Lake Glacier in your back yard. Take your morning coffee on the dock and watch the sunrise on the peak of the Absaroka mountains. Spend some time paddling on the lake in a canoe or kayak, or try your hand at tricking a trout with world class fly fishing in the lake or on the Torrey Creek that runs through the property. Take a short hike to the Indian petroglyphs (ancient Indian rock carvings) on property and in the canyon, or hike the many trails surrounding the Lake House. A campfire and smores might be a great ending to your day.

We enjoyed our week at the Lake House. It was very peaceful. The kids had a blast kayaking, canoeing, and splashing around near the shore. Our two dogs also enjoyed there time running along the shoreline and venturing out into the water.

My family and I really loved this cabin. We are all originally from WY but live in CO now. I love WY and this place is perfect. You are out on your own with no one around - exactly the kind of experience I like. Jerry was really very nice and accommodating. We appreciate all the effort he put in. We literally had everything we needed. We will definitely be back. Thanks Jerry.

The Lakehouse is a beautiful and peaceful place to visit. This was our second time staying here and Jerry is always friendly and accommodating, we love the lake for canoeing, fishing and the breathtaking views. We are animal lovers so we especially enjoy Jerrys horses and dogs on property. We bring our dogs and they love playing with Jerrys dogs on the lake. The worst part about this place is packing up and leaving. We look forward to the next time we can make it here again.

A Fabulous Retreat!

We had a great time at the Lake house. Jerry was a welcoming host and the cabin is just as it appears in the pictures. Our stay was the perfect combination of activity and relaxation. We paddled around the lake, took a short hike, put together a puzzle in the screened in porch, explored the town of Dubois. There is as much (or as little!) to do as anyone would like. We're already thinking about a return visit.

This was the perfect place for our family vacation! We loved being surrounded by nature and having all the fun activities to do. Being right on the lake allowed for us to fish, kayak, and relax on the shore. We were a short drive to the trailhead which allowed for quick access to the beautiful mountains. There were plenty of ORV trails and roads for us to explore as well. The Lake House was a perfect “home away from home.” We loved the personal touch of our home-state flag that greeted us upon arrival.

Perfect vacation

We wanted to relax and unplug and we did just that, thanks to the lakehouse. We fished, kayaked, hiked, explored Dubois and enjoyed every minute of the cabin, location, weather, people, and amazing views. This was our favorite vacation, and we've traveled, and we will be back as often as we can.

We stayed here because of the remote and unique location. We wanted to photograph wildlife and wild places and this location was key. We love the area and all there is to discover in the Dubois west. Our hosts were excellent and the cabin perfect for our needs.

Absolutely gorgeous!

We stayed a week with your pet dog at this cabin. The cabin was comfortable, clean and well maintained — had everything we were hoping for. Beautiful mornings and evenings right on the lake, with wonderful walks on the property as well up into the glacial hills. Great hosts that made sure we had everything we needed. Their dogs were also very friendly. Would highly recommend a stay here …. we look forward to returning.

Second stay at Trail Lake

We enjoyed the cabin and location so much in our first stay, last year, that we came back for a second year. Glad we did. The hikes, the country, the paddles and life at the cabin and on the porch - another fine family get together in this beautiful valley in this well-kept historic cabin.
