Fishtail, Montana
Tucked into the foothills of the dramatic Beartooth Mountains and sitting on the banks of the West Rosebud River is an historic getaway known as the Torgrimson Place at the Bench Ranch.
Here, the Pulitzer Prize winning author Wallace Stegner escaped the hustle and bustle of everyday life to experience a retreat into the quiet, simple beauty of the natural landscape of Montana. The cabin has also been enjoyed by such notables as humorist Dave Barry and poet Allen Ginsberg. However, every guest is important, and to many of those who return year after year, the Torgrimson Place feels like home.
Big Sky Country, to see it is to believe it. Expansive vistas, wide-open prairies, rugged and spectacularly stacked mountain ranges, and trout-filled rivers grace this landscape. Like other prominent figures in American history, such as Lewis and Clark, Sitting Bull, Charlie Russell, and a score of acclaimed writers and artists, experience it with your own senses.
The Torgrimson Place is rare: this is sanctuary.

The location was perfect for our trip to Fishtail. We can’t wait to book a trip in the summer and enjoy some of the outdoor options the place has to offer!
As usual, the Torg does not disappoint. We had another wonderful and magical stay. Quiet, beautiful, wondrous. We love wandering and exploring the ranch, and being close to other wild places we like to explore. We've been visiting the Torg for years and we'll most certainly be back!
Beautiful property to relax
Loved the charming cabin and the backyard trout fishing. The people, the place and the times were excellent! Gotta love Montana…
This place worked out great for us while we were in the area for a cousin’s wedding.
Seeing the original ax/adze marks on the cabin logs links you to history. Easy in an out to Fishtail and it's not to miss General Store, with a tasty deli and coffee nook. The cabin is comfortable, clean as a whistle with a front yard that is a beautiful place to sit and read , view the Beartooths and always be lulled by the babbling brook and a bit further, the W. Rosebud River. Will return!
Torgrimson Place is wonderful, especially if you like history. It is a very cute old house with every modern amenity. Extremely quiet and private. Peaceful. The E Rosebud Creek running is the perfect ‘white noise’. We really enjoyed it. Property manager went out of her way to make sure all was well, even brought us fresh raspberries. Thank you
We had such a peaceful stay at this modernized rustic cabin. The setting on the creek is outstanding, and we loved being greeted with fresh-cut wildflowers and raspberries. We cooked many nice meals, and ate outside, and read the history, including Wallace Stegner's stay. Thank you Tessa and crew.
Had a lovely time, Very relaxing and convenient, has everything you need. Hosts were very attentive and checked in on us after our late arrival. Newly re modeled bathroom and lots of space. Lovely yard to enjoy.
Such a great cabin for a week getaway. The kitchen is well stocked and the property is beautiful!
