Welcome to Lucky Cub Ranch!

Welcome to Lucky Cub Ranch!  Ready to book for our 2022 season. Alpine’s most unique private sanctuary. 7 acres of prestigious private and protected natural grounds directly connected to the Bridger-Teton National Forest on three sides of the property make this the BEST rental property in Alpine. Three Queen beds. 1 California King with adjustable features in the Master, a Bunk bed with a full and Twin bed, as well as two couches can accommodate a large group comfortably.

A majestic and private getaway awaits you just moments from Downtown Alpine! This serene 5 bedroom and 3 bath cabin is perfect for large groups or those of you looking to rest and relax in a quiet natural reserve surrounded on three sides by a national forest with a pond on the property for your enjoyment. Jackson Hole is a 32-mile drive and the airport is less than an hour away. Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks, recognized as two of the most beautiful parks in the world, are easily accessible for you and your group to enjoy. Your stay at Lucky Cub Ranch also includes a Concierge service that will provide help with anything you need whether its putting together a guided group adventure to the parks, or an in house spa service. (Please coordinate desired services no less than two weeks in advance of your stay. Additional costs may be incurred separate from your VRBO fees depending on the activity.)

The Space:

Enjoy the convenience and proximity to the Alpine Junction from our lodge. Lucky Cub Ranch is a natural reserve for you and your group. Surrounded by the Bridger-Teton National Forest, you are literally STEPS away from the largest national park in the lower 48. Your backyard is 3.4 million acres of pristine outdoor space for hikers, seasonal activity enthusiasts, and nature lovers of all kinds.

You are seconds away from the Palisades Reservoir and the ability to explore water activities including fishing, jet skiing, and much more. Jackson Hole is only 32 miles up the serene Snake River Canyon where you will find yourself enjoying the mountain life most only dream about. Picture yourself sipping on a cup of coffee with panoramic big mountain views in every direction and gorgeous lake in the background. Bring your recreational vehicles! The property is ideal for snowmobile and ATV excursions. You are less than 3 miles to the Greys River trailhead. No trailering needed as the city of Alpine allows sleds and ATVs on its roads. This home is near to the public Alpine Boat Landing located on the south side of Highway 26, on the east side of the Snake River’s South Fork.

Enjoy the quiet and take in the views of the migrating elk, moose, countless bird species, and the occasional bears. Local restaurants provide abundant breakfast and dinner options. Several breweries and friendly people make this one of the best recreation areas in the world, showcasing why so many people love to call Wyoming their favorite vacation destination.

Please make sure to request our guide/rules book when booking. No parking on any grass when arriving. No fireworks (breaking this rule will result in an immediate cancellation and eviction).

End of sled season snowmobile trip
With lack luster conditions back in Ohio/Michigan, we decided to brave the 28hr drive and try our luck out west. Alpine did not disappoint and neither did the house, great size and lay out for 6 guys. Enjoyed our stay and host was very accommodating

Nice home very roomy and clean
We did love the home it was very spacious and very able to accommodate nine people. The only downfall is I felt like the pictures the house seemed more remote and it actually sits pretty close to the highway. The acres that the home backs up to it is not able to be access and no way for hiking or any other activities.

Wonderful. We were so happy with how insulated each room is. Our 3 year old took naps in the bedroom adjacent to the great room and was never disturbed. Warm, inviting, perfect.

Magical Christmas Stay
We can't rave enough about the Lucky Cub Ranch! Our family wanted a peaceful, cozy house to stay in for a white Christmas and it did not disappoint! The booking process was easy, the communication with the owner and property managers was excellent. They were extremely helpful answering all of our questions and went above and beyond to make our daughter's first Christmas extra special by making sure to have a decorated Christmas tree and beautiful outdoor lights ready for our stay! The house itself is perfect and had all the amenities that we needed. The property was beautiful, such a magical serene lot where we were lucky enough to see elk every morning! Our family was even able to go sledding right on the property. We didn't need to leave the house and were able to enjoy a magical, white Christmas! Thank you to John, Kieth and the whole staff!

Hidden Gem
It was just my husband, myself and our 2 dogs. The welcoming pet policy is a real plus! We all enjoyed our stay at the Lucky Cub. It's a one-of-a-kind location, at the end of a private lane. The sunsets from the deck are post card material. The pond was dried up (end of summer), but I bet it's great most of the year. There are ruins of an old cabin that are fun to explore. The yard is shady and cool, even on hot days. The house is tastefully decorated. My one constructive criticism is that it is under-furnished for a large group. For the two of us, it was fine, but if I had a group of 12, it would not be adequate. For example, the dining table only seats 4 and the huge, beautiful deck only has 2 rocking chairs on it. If I was there with a large group, we would want to eat dinner together and hang out on the deck together. While there is lots to do in the area, the location of this house begs for some quality time just hanging out! The master bedroom is large and the bed is comfortable but it is very empty feeling. And what happened to the back deck? It would be totally awesome to rebuild that! I gave the Lucky Cub 5 stars because my comments ares meant as constructive criticism, not complaints. It's a fabulous place. The whole process from check-in to departure was seamless and any questions were promptly answered. The house was very clean. Thanks again!

Pleasantly surprised by the amount of space for hanging out, cooking meals and playing pool. Beautiful views, Alpine is a neat little town and still so close to Jackson, Tetons and even got up to Yellowstone. Highly recommend!

National park family vacation
Stayed for a. Trip to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. Great house - beautifully decorated, well stocked, great beds and linens/towels. Plenty of room. Best stocked rental we have ever had with basic toiletries, kitchen soaps, spices and paper products. Needed some fans as it was hotter weather than expected for this time of year and they were promptly provided. About an hour from Jackson airport. Easy drive to parks. Delish donuts in Alpine was awesome. Went on whitewater trip with Sands Whitewater - great trip - highly recommend the 8 man raft.

Amazing house and nice location
We were 3 families with kids. They had nice experience , the house was clean, enough games to keep them busy. They enjoyed playing pool. The kitchen was well equipped with all the basic necessities. We liked the house decor as well. The house is about an hour drive from Jackson Hole and 90 mins from the Grand Teton national park.
