Hansen Guest Ranch & Event Venue

I can say with 100% certainty that our wedding would not have been the success it was without the incredible team at Hansen Guest Ranch. Choosing them was the best decision we made. • The Venue: The ranch itself is absolutely beautiful, with gorgeous views and extremely reasonable prices for a multi-day wedding weekend. • The Incredible Team: Nancy, John, Scott, and Christy are the heart and soul of this venue. For three days, they worked tirelessly to care for our 50 guests and make our vision a reality, handling everything from decorations and cleanup to keeping us on schedule. They genuinely care about your event as much as you do. • Above & Beyond Service: This team is prepared for anything. They moved tables last minute, helped family members get where they needed to be, and when disaster struck, they handled it instantly. The moment that truly showed their character was when Nancy convinced the post master to reopen over a holiday weekend to find my missing bouquets. They are true miracle workers. These people might actually be modern day saints. Our wedding was better for being at Hansen Guest Ranch, and our lives are better for getting to work with them.

A Hidden Gem in Swan Valley – The Yurt Stay of My Dreams My stay at the Hansen Guest Ranch in Swan Valley, Idaho, was nothing short of magical. Booking was simple, and they offered several accommodation options, but we were immediately drawn to the yurt and the online photos didn’t even do it justice. Upon arrival, the owner Nancy rode up on her bike and greeted us with the warmest welcome. She personally walked me over to the yurt, which they had just finished cooling down for our comfort. After a quick and friendly tour, she let us settle in. The yurt was incredible. It was equipped with a full kitchen, bathroom, bed, pull-out couch, heaters, fan, and a spacious deck with views that were absolutely breathtaking. The space was calm, cozy, and beautifully decorated. I fell in love with the quilt on the bed and the duvet cover. I’m convinced they were handmade. The level of detail and comfort was truly impressive. During our stay, we had breakfast with family at their campground and spent the day riding our ATV through the mountains. Nancy stayed in touch via text, and we let her know we’d be attending breakfast the next morning, which turned out to be a major highlight of our trip. They served freshly made sausage, eggs, potatoes, and the most delicious banana bread, plus great coffee and even better company. We felt so cared for without ever feeling intruded upon. The property itself is amazing. It has a rock climbing wall, a fire pit for s’mores, and plenty of space to gather. It would be a perfect location for a family reunion or wedding. I’m currently trying to convince my boyfriend to get married there. That’s how much I loved it. Nancy and her husband were outstanding hosts. If you’re visiting from out of town and want to truly experience Swan Valley like a local, I highly recommend staying here. The Hansen Guest Ranch is a special place, and I’ll absolutely be back. It’s now at the top of my list for both getaways and glowing recommendations.

10/10 place, would DEFINITELY recommend when in town. The home owners were so kind and welcoming. Really made the trip an experience to remember. Super nice rooms, such a woodsy atmosphere and really took me back to my roots in the country side. The scenery is so beautiful and the land is well kept. 4hrs away from Yellowstone and an hour from Jackson Hole. If you’re stopping in Swan Valley, definitely come! You won’t regret it!

Me and my husband stayed there for our honeymoon this last summer. Beautiful scenery, cute and cozy room in a super cool old barn house. They have pickleball, which me and my husband love, a nice little walking trail and a delicious home cooked breakfast! Not to mention the hosts! They are the sweetest people ever that just want to make your entire stay perfect. It is a small property and not a ton of people there at the same time as us so the customer service seemed very personal! 10/10 would recommend and I will be staying here again!!

The best place in Idaho to stay! Awesome views! The nicest, warmest people in the world!
