- The Resort at Paws Up combines luxury with unforgettable adventure on a 37,000 acre ranch – that’s more than 60 square miles -- featuring untamed Montana wilderness steeped in Lewis and Clark history. Situated ten miles of river front on the legendary Blackfoot River (of A River Runs Through It), The Resort at Paws Up opened in June 2005.
Paws Up boasts more than 120 miles of designated hiking, mountain biking, horse and ATV trails. Outdoor adventures include fly-fishing, cattle driving, rock repelling, whitewater rafting, bird and wildlife watching, and sporting clays shooting. Winter activities include snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, sleigh rides and ice skating, dog sledding and downhill skiing nearby.
The Resort at Paws Up offers accommodations for up to 250 guests in 28 well-appointed vacation homes and 36 tented accommodations. - Standout Venue Features:
- The Resort at Paws Up is a complete destination for groups and Montana meetings that range from small, intimate gatherings to incentive programs and executive retreats. Our variety of facilities offer flexibility inside and out, all nestled within a magnificent 37,000-acre luxury ranch resort. With adventures abounding for all seasons, incentive retreats, conferences and Montana meetings have never been better.
And what do you get the resort that has everything? An island. New for 2018, guests at Paws Up will be thrilled to discover the Island Lodge at Salmon Lake, a private retreat nestled among the pines. It serves as the central gathering spot for a whole host of summertime lake activities.In every direction, you’re surrounded by the largest and oldest ecosystem in the Lower 48.

- The Bull Barn:
- The Bull Barn, which was built as a livestock barn in 1920 and most recently used to house Paws Up’s prized Black Angus bulls during the height of Paws Up’s cattle ranching operation, was remodeled by Paws Up throughout 2011 using the same sturdy timbers that originated in 1920. Opened for use in September 2011, the iconic building now serves as a contemporary conference center, wedding venue, and event center in the center of The Resort at Paws Up.

- Food, Restaurants, Cafes:
- Trough
Trough offers meals with a bit more western flair. Home-cooked flavors mingle with traditional offerings for a rustic, yet refined taste palette. Here, you may find hand-cut meats combined with simply prepared local vegetables. Satisfaction guaranteed. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served daily. However, we must tell you that huckleberry pancakes are only served at breakfast so you can only eat them once per day.
Pomp
The cuisine at Pomp might be described as refined rustic ranch. Grounded in the fundamentals of classic cooking, our chef uses his background and his imagination to create culinary innovations. Local ingredients are featured, so offerings change just like the seasons.
Paws Up is also home to a variety of venues unlike the other across our 37,000 acres. Each of these spaces can be transformed into a dining venue for your wedding guests. - Bars & Lounges:
- Tank
Tank is a full-service bar offering the finest drink selections, and a casual environment complete with flat-screen TVs, music, and spectacular views. It's the perfect place to unwind and reconnect after a day full of adventure.
