Private Cabins

The Best of Montana, Directly on the Bighorn River

A Private Cabin Situated at The Gates of the Bighorn River Valley

Your cozy cabin sits amongst the foothills that overlook the banks of the famed Bighorn River. You will enjoy spectacular views of the Bighorn River and the surrounding Valley, not to mention the Big Sky of Montana right from your own cabin deck. Truly, you are situated at the gates of the Bighorn River Valley and everything it has to offer. The fun doesn’t stop at fishing and hunting alone, as the Bighorn Valley affords the visitor with an abundance of exciting things to take advantage of while visiting the area. From hiking within the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area to learning about the natural and cultural history of the land, there is truly something for everyone. Should you wish to add on any additional services , such as a guided day-float on the river with one of our Orvis-Endorsed Guides or say a relaxing therapeutic massage, we are here to assist you in creating a uniquely customized, unforgettable Big Sky getaway.

  • "Novice or expert, you’ll succeed."
    With thousands of fish per mile, and the guide to put you on them, novice or expert, you’ll succeed.

  • "Great Getaway"
    My 12 year old son and my husband had the chance to spend time here for 4 nights and 5 days. They came back with wonderful stories about the fishing, the food, and their wonderful hosts. Great pictures were sent back to us in New York. They hope to return soon. Hopefully, next time, our daughters and I will join them for a full family trip!

  • "Hats off to a well run lodge and outfitter!"
    I was given the opportunity to visit Forrester’s on a last minute trip. Everything was top notch! Spent 4 nights and 3 days fishing. Food was mind blowing. Staff was incredible! Guide was patient (and my first time fly fishing) and worked his butt off for us. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. If you’re still debating, let this review seal the deal. Hats off to a well run lodge and outfitter!

  • "This place is awesome."
    This place is awesome. Picturesque location overlooking the river, very close to town and the dam where you put in for fishing. The cabins are neat, clean, and well appointed. This is where we will stay every time we are in Fort Smith to fish the legendary Big Horn River.
    - Mark M.
  • "The staff is always on point"
    Foresters is the spot to get out in the great outdoors and do some darn fly-fishing (and hunting during the proper seasons). The staff is always on point and they top it off with food that is on another level (possibly from a different planet), and will keep you guessing until your last night !!!
