Perfect

We loved our stay in the budge! Hiked all day in the Tetons and this cabin was perfect to come home to. Peace and quiet! Saw momma and baby moose several days on the property and heard elk bugling. The cabin has everything and is very comfortable! Kim was awesome! Will stay again!!

A beautiful, quiet, and secluded cabin on a private ranch. Near enough to Jackson and Grand Teton Nat'l park yet far enough out of the busy and crowded tourist areas. Nora's Fish Creek Inn in nearby Wilson has excellent breakfast fare. The ranch is boarded on the west by Fish Creek, and the west by a pond. The pond is frequently visited by moose. We had to stop on Fish Creek Rd one morning to two huge bull moose jumping a fence and crossing over the road to nibble on one resident's trees!

Perfect for our trip

My Mom and I really enjoyed our first experience in the Jackson/Teton area! We came to see moose and we accomplished that on this property! This is truly a rustic cabin that is very cozy and comfortable sleeping. Very simple living. We were only there for sleeping pretty much and had a great time exploring the parks and Jackson area. We were home each evening to watch the mama and baby moose right behind the cabin in the creek and land behind us. The river you cross to get to the property is unique and provides a relaxing sound. It is such a quiet property down in the willows and The Budge is close to 2 other cabins and the main house- that wasn’t a problem for us. The bathroom is small, but we didn’t find that a problem. Since we were the first guests of 2020, Kim helped make sure we had everything we needed. The only thing we wish we had was a microwave (only because we had leftovers from other meals and mom and I aren’t used to not having one....that’s us though!). We will definitely come back if Kim and family will have us! Thank you for a lovely time!

A lovely refuge at The Budge

The cabin is great: rustic and comfortable. The location on fish creek is very special, with beautiful aspen and pines, willow and flowers. Nice hiking trails nearby (I walked up the PWA dirt road and had great views of the valley area and mountains.). I’ll try to get back there!

About the host

Hosted by Gina St Clair

I am the granddaughter of Jacqueline Hiller, who started running the the Anchor Ranch in the 1950’s. I grew up in Jackson in the 60's and 70's and graduated from the Jackson Hole High School in 1979. My summers were spent at the ranch, riding horses and fly fishing in the creek. I went to college at The Evergreen State College in Washington. The day after graduation I drove to Alaska where I lived for 32 years. In Haines, Alaska I raised three kids, as well as had a variety of jobs including cooking, teaching, fishing, and guiding. I also had a small farm where I raised chickens, goats and a large organic vegetable garden. I am back home for now, to help out my parents and help maintain the ranch. I live here with my partner, Dan, and daughter, Gabrielle, who is now a senior at the Jackson Hole High School.

Why they chose this property

My grandparents Jacqueline and Fredrick Hiller bought the Anchor Ranch in 1950. They had moved to the United States from Germany, he was a neurologist at Northwestern University in Evanston Illinois. Originally they came out to Jackson as 'dudes', and stayed at Trail Creek Ranch. In 1950 they decided to buy their own property where they could be near the mountains and enjoy good fishing. Fredrick passed away in 1953, and Jackie and her two daughters, my mom, (Gabrielle) Putzi and her sister Sylvia, moved out to Wyoming permanently around 1955. At that time, Jackie started running the ranch as a dude ranch, which she continued for the next 20 years. Summer tourists, or dudes as they were called back in the day, came to the ranch for fishing, horseback riding, hiking, climbing and for some it was just coming out to be in the west. After Jackie's passing in 1993, my mom, Putzi and her husband John moved to the ranch. They have lived here ever since, and all of their four daughters have all lived here at some point in time.

What makes this property unique

I feel incredibly lucky that I get to call the Anchor Ranch my home. It is not many places in the Jackson Hole valley which have remained virtually untouched for 70 years. The corrals, arena and horses are no long here, but the trees I climbed as a young cowgirl in my cowboy boots are. And the creek and the pond still flow as pure and pristine, with cut throat and brook trout, as they always have.
