A standard all-inclusive, corporate package features an extensive horseback riding program, guided fishing, plus many other eco-activities. Packages can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of the client. The ranch will build clients an itinerary that accommodates business meeting goals while incorporating the ranch activity program around it. The lodge can accommodate six executives along with their spouses or nine persons travelling as singles (or 6 singles, if each executive requires a separate room). In summer, you'll each have your own horse, and in winter, you'll each drive your own dog sled. The attentive staff will serve your every need and will cater especially to meet the specific requirements of your group. In summer, this all-inclusive package features riding on your own, horsemanship instruction, special guided rides, ranch events, entertainment, plus many other outdoor activities, all your meals, luxury accommodations and non-alcoholic beverages. In winter, all of the above applies except that activities are dog sledding, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, ice-fishing, tobogganing, lake skating and cross-country skiing.

| Accommodations: The 7,000 square foot, log ranch house is set at the edge of a meadow on a knoll overlooking Siwash Lake. French doors open to a spacious deck, where you can share your day's adventures over drinks and appetizers while wild birds serenade from the nearby pines. Or you can retreat to one of several verandahs, to steep quietly in the gentle ebb and flow of the great outdoors. Inside, the ranch house features laid back, western-style luxury; old-fashioned country charm and the rustic flavor of frontier living, finished with casual elegance reminiscent of the Victorian era. The cathedral ceiling living room, with its western décor, overstuffed furniture, vintage fabrics, and antiques makes for a relaxed and comfortable haven at day's end, when there's always a crackling fire burning in the 30-foot river rock fireplace. Several room types are available at the ranch. JESSE'S LAIR:
This bright and cozy room has a bird's eye view through the aspen woods toward the ranch's vegetable garden.

| Meal Information: At mealtimes, you'll be delighted with five-star food and great fellowship in the cozy 20-seat dining room. Hand hewn log walls, a rich fir plank floor, and casually elegant country furniture make guests feel as though they've just stepped into the dining area of a grand "old west" estate. Tables vary from large group and family size, to intimate window settings for two. The ranch offers savory, gourmet cuisine, prepared from the freshest of seasonal ingredients and served with casual Siwash-style flare. Whenever possible, they incorporate wholesome, organic food produced on the ranch - mouth-watering beef and pork, free-range eggs, and baby greens for your salads, picked right from our garden. The chef is pleased to accommodate special diets when notified in advance.
