Lyndy Caine, Owner

Growing up nearby, spending her summers on the Lake, the Firehole Ranch was always a special place for Lyndy. So, when she learned in 1999 that her beloved Firehole Ranch was destined to be sliced into 20-acre ranchettes, she couldn’t stand by and watch. Well aware of the Ranch’s long, rich history, she chose to save the pristine 640 acres by purchasing it herself. In doing so, she managed to preserve not only the original 640 acres that were first settled in the 1860s, but she also rescued the historic structures as well as the intimate fly fishing experience.

Rather than providing a modern day experience out in the wilds of Montana, Lyndy chose to maintain the exceptional opportunity to completely escape the modern world. A rarity today, Lyndy believes the Firehole Ranch exists to teach us all a lesson about life, fly fishing and what is truly important. She and her staff have a keen understanding of the symbiotic relationship of the Ranch with the land around it, and make every effort to practice good stewardship and sustainable practices. “Our greatest satisfaction comes from watching our visitors decompress and become centered again as they reconnect with themselves and the natural world around them,” Lyndy remarks. “We make every effort to ensure that we can continue to provide this extraordinary escape for generations to come."

Erik Brady, Hospitality Operations Manager

Born and raised in Washington State, Erik always felt at home in Montana. He and his family fly fished, camped, hiked and explored the wilds of one of the last touched places on earth; which led Erik to going to school in Dillion, Montana. Having a degree in Horsemanship and Business, Erik pursued that passion working for a guest ranch in Big Timber, Montana. Over the years he became manager of the establishment and really enjoyed connecting with the guests and helping them reconnect with themselves and nature.

Having left for a couple years Erik always wanted to get back to Montana and find that connection with guests and the area once more. With his wife and pets they found solace in West Yellowstone. Erik is looking forward to being a part of the Firehole Ranch and helping guests feel at home while helping them make memories that will last a life time.
