The lobby.
The first thing you see at Paws Up is the lobby, and this log cabin palace comes complete with a bar big enough for 10 dusty cowboys.

Play pen.
This tent is the “kids room” off the main house. No need to stack blankets and build a fort here – it's already done for you.
-
Camp like a Kashardian.
Glamping (glamour/camping) is the term used at Paws Up, and with good reason. Each tent comes complete with electricity, fine furniture, and the sounds of nature.

Fireside.
The lodges at Paws Up are decorated with endless amounts of Western charm, the giant fireplace being the focal point.
-
King size.
This bed gives “king size” new meaning. After a long day playing on the ranch, this bed grabs you and keeps you warm and cozy all night.

Snack time.
Nothing better than grilled cheese and tomato soup served on a picnic table.

On the prairie.
Paws Up is 37,000 acres of pure Montana cowboy country, which leaves plenty of space to get lost in the open prairie.
