Curl up on the leather sofa and warm your feet by the fireplace after a fabulous day of biking the Hiawatha Trail or whitewater rafting the Alberton Gorge!The Conductor Room (formerly The Marilyn Room), features cayenne red walls and a full size black canopy bed.  This room is decorated with railroad memorabilia depicting the history of our 100 year old former railroad hotel.
Where the Buffalo Room (formerly The Queen Room) has been redone in bison decor! Sleep comfortably in this queen bed with 2" memory foam topper.  Boogie with the bison at the National Bison Range, a short trip from Ghost Rails Inn!The Montana Autumn Room (formerly The Outdoor Room) is one of the seasons you can enjoy at Ghost Rails Inn! This is a great family stay room featuring a cozy queen bed plus bunk beds and a private bath with tub/shower.
Step into the Old West in The Bunk House Room.  Decorated with rope, leather, horseshoes and western decor. Turn of the Century Iron bed.  Shares bath with one other room.
Reminiscent of, "A River Runs Through It," The Clark Fork is all about flyfishing!  Perfect for friends traveling or working in the area.  Also a great second room for families on vacation!  Two twin beds; private bath with shower.The Montana Winter Room is painted a beautiful cloudberry blue with timberwolf wallpaper border.  This room has a private bath w/tub and shower.  In addition to the white double canopy bed, there is a trundle bed which sleeps two.  Wonderful room for a family of four.
