I woke up at home yesterday, still on Montana time. After my coffee I felt like I needed to go somewhere, do something, be ready.

My family started an annual pilgrammage to the ranch after our first visit in 1967, and no summer was complete without it as we grew up. Now represented by three generations, the Nine Quarter Circle remains the destination of choice for all family members who return from around the globe for our too infrequent reunions. Having made lifelong friends with... More

The scenery is absolutely beautiful, the staff friendly and very helpful. We encountered a problem with hot water in our cabin (as we were the first guests there for the summer season), and were immediately moved to an even larger cabin (no extra charge), complete with bunnies living under the front porch!

When surfing the internet, looking for some vacation ideas, I came across the Nine Quarter Circle Ranch. It sounded intriguing---a log... More

We can't say enough about the Nine Quarter Circle Ranch; our family started going to the ranch in 1990, and have gone every summer since then, for one and sometimes two weeks. Our children are now 27, 24, and 21, and still make time for a western visit! The Kelsey family has become good friends, and their staff is always... More
