Sulphur Creek Ranch 2025

Sulphur Creek Ranch group reservations for overnight adventures for the upcoming 2026 season are completely booked. As we are slowly rebuilding the infrastructure, we are adding an opportunity for your groups to have a minimum of 6 adults for a 3 night stay. If you are interested in reserving the ranch with your family or business group for season 2027, this is the time to inquire. 

Our 2026 hunts are also booked. If you are interested in our hunt program for 2027, please contact us.

Our limited openings are secured unusually fast so please don't hesitate to contact us with your request.

The drive to restock the pond with native Cutthroat Trout was successful in 2025! Thanks to the heroic efforts of the Idaho Fish and Game team, Jeff Stewart"s long time fishing crew from Sonoma County, CA., Allen Dodge at Morgan Ranch, and our trusted pilot, Kord Smith, and all his flights to transport the fish from the Morgan Ranch to the SCR pond. What a tremendous orchestration!

We'll see how well the new arrivals fared after the winter.

Getting here is only the beginning of the journey

Experiencing backcountry hospitality like it used to be is a journey long forgotten by many! Our primary goal at Sulphur Creek Ranch is to re-accustom our guests to the benefits of true hospitality and how it can transform your experience. We are a private ranch nestled in the southwest corner of The Frank Church River of No Return. The forest surrounding the ranch is a designated "Wilderness Area" in Idaho established in 1980.

No motorized vehicles,  4 wheelers, cars, trucks, strangers are going to be passing by or dropping in. This lends to the unique atmosphere which simply cannot be duplicated.

It provides a deep sense of peace and solitude. You can hear "the silence"!
