The Little Jennie Ranch, based in Monroe, Connecticut, operates guided ranch and horseback experiences featuring authentic Western-style activities. The ranch offers a range of trips including working ranch days with professional cowboys, scenic half- and full-day horseback rides, chuckwagon dinners, ride-and-fly-fish trips, and an overnight Bedroll & Breakfast camp experience.
Visitors can choose from hands-on cattle work with a professional crew, extended packed-lunch adventure rides into Bridger Teton National Forest, short scenic rides, and guided ranch tours by ATV or truck. Many trips are designed for small groups and include options for families, couples, and experienced riders seeking challenging rides.
Safety and local expertise are central to the ranch’s programming: professional guides provide instruction, stocked gear for specialty trips such as fly fishing, and packed meals for full- and half-day outings. The Chuckwagon Ride offers a horse-pulled wagon dinner for those who prefer not to ride horseback, and the Dinner Ride features storytelling and music beneath the Gros Ventre mountains.
The Little Jennie Ranch emphasizes authentic ranch life and memorable outdoor meals at a historic cow camp cabin. Prospective guests are encouraged to review specific trip descriptions and booking requirements to match experience levels and group size. This practical information helps ensure a safe, enjoyable, and authentic ranch visit. Booking details, seasonal schedules, and specific rider requirements are available through the ranch's reservation channels; guests should confirm dates, group size limits, and rider experience recommendations ahead of arrival to ensure a seamless ranch experience and planning for equipment and meals.
