The Hideout Mission Statement

In an ever-changing global environment, The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch promises our guests a Western Equestrian Riding and Horsemanship Experience, blending traditional Wyoming ranch values with an open-minded international culture to provide a unique Western equestrian vacation. When it comes to food, personal attention, and lodging, we strive to pamper our guests and refrain from being rustic. We consider your stay at The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch as much a vacation as a learning experience and we ourselves are always open to learning new things, be critical to ourselves to continuously improve the experience for our guests, staff, horses, and all involved in creating this experience.

In our journey to creating this unique experience, we realize there is no perfect ranch, no perfect employer, no perfect horse, no perfect employee, but we strive hard to make is as perfect as possible.

Key to our culture is the 3 C’s of Character, Conduct and Competence and The Code of The West.

Authentic Horsemanship and Hospitality

Authentic Horsemanship is our brand of relationship-based horsemanship. Wecommunicate with our horses in a non-verbal way where we use pressure and release to encourage our horses to respond. That’s how we establish trust and connection through consistent leadership. We carry this approach of kindness and encouragement throughout our whole organization – this is the core of our hospitality culture.
