Hospitality combined with great hunting-- expect it at The Bison Ranch!  Please watch the video at right to get an idea of what the ranch setting is like. You'll agree---this is no corral shoot!   Besides a beautiful setting, here is what to expect when you book a hunting adventure at The Bison Ranch at Coteau Ridge: First and foremost, we offer honesty and integrity. We are not just another outfitter. This is our land and our passion, and our customers will tell you that we are straight shooters with a business based on relationships. Most of our guests are repeat customers who have become great friends.   We've raised our kids with integrity and honesty, we are good community citizens, and we will only offer our services to people looking for a genuine hunting adventure based on love of the land and respect for nature. Expert guide services--from those who live and love the land!  Our guides are licensed and law-abiding natives who are fun-loving and very accommodating---and guaranteed to set you up for success! World-Class Hunting---Oren's guarantee to hunters: If you don't get a shot, you get your money back! Lodging in our comfy farm house that is nestled in the foothills of the Coteau at the end of a mile-long private driveway. Go out the backdoor and you will find yourself in the midst of hunting heaven! We are not offering just another farmhouse here! This is a setting that is cited by our customers as the most endearing part of their trip. You'll love the setting! Our hunting packages include complete lodging, including clean linens, game-cleaning facilities, a hot shower, and evening snacks.  Although you will find yourself in no mansion (there are none in these parts!), we do guarantee you a cozy, warm and friendly farm house complete with fully equipped kitchen and bath and a CLEAN homey atmosphere ! Full, sit-down breakfasts that provide you with not just energy, but camaraderie and the beginning of a great day! Many options for lunch and evening meals. Over the years, we have found some of our hunters value an opportunity to get together to cook up their favorite meals. Others have more fun immersing themselves in local culture at our locally run community cafe for lunch and at the local grille and saloon in the evening. Oren will set you up either way! We know what your dog means to you --we once lost a Chocolate Lab called Otis that was very dear to our hearts! So we heartily welcome your dog and have a warm place for him/her (please provide your own kennel). Free transportation from Jamestown Airport (24 miles).  Round-trip transportation from Bismarck and Fargo Airports (120 miles) is $250 per party of up to three. Since this is big country and pretty interesting, most of our clients prefer to have their own set of wheels. Rental is available at all airports. We can help set you up if you wish. Whatever you forgot.  We know what it's like to go on a trip and discover you forgot your favorite socks, overcoat, etc.   While we aren't exactly sitting in the middle of the Mall of America, we will try our best to be of service to you during your stay at Couteau!   We will fetch ammo, dry socks, gloves--whatever it takes to keep you happy and comfortable. (But PLEASE do your best to come prepared! Dress warm and for wet...that way you are covered for all kinds of conditions. It can get cold here in autumn!
