Ruthie does a great job of hosting at this property. She is always ready to assist, if needed, but does not bother you otherwise. The property is very spacious and the lodge is very nice. Full amenities and a fully stocked kitchen are great for an extended stay. The scenery cannot be beat, with views of the mountains and Platte River all around. It is within close driving distance to Casper, but is off of the main road enough to be secluded.

Cozy Lodge on the Platte River

We enjoyed our week stay at the Red Butte Ranch very much. It was spacious, clean, had a fully stocked kitchen and the host (Ruth) was amazing. The location was great, located just a few miles out of Casper yet quiet and serene. We plan to return next summer and if available would book the RBR again.
