Introduction & Overview
RR Lodge is a 21.18-acre riverfront sanctuary where water shapes every moment of living. Set near the end of Ely Springs Road, the property offers uncommon privacy, surrounded by flowing channels of Ely Springs Creek and centered around a reflective spring-fed pond that wraps the home in mirrored light. A quarter mile of private Snake River frontage anchors the western edge, while the Grand Teton rises to the northa rare alignment of water, mountain, and seclusion just minutes from Jackson. With a handcrafted 5,906 sq ft lodge-style residence, guest house, studio, barn, and a restored trout habitat, this property is defined by its water, privacy, and sense of place.

Privacy, Setting & Sense of Place
The property lives quietly, buffered by trees, water, and open space that create an atmosphere of seclusion without isolation. The home is thoughtfully positioned within its landscapeout of view, softly screened, and surrounded by the sound of flowing water and the movement of wildlife. From every window and deck, the experience is the same: nature in the foreground, mountains beyond, and nothing to interrupt the quiet.

Main House  5,906 sq ft of Elevated Western Lodge Architecture
Built in 1997, the main residence is a masterwork of handcrafted Western design, combining log, stone, timber, and glass in a way that feels authentic, timeless, and deeply connected to place. The home spans 5,906 sq ft with six bedrooms and six baths, arranged across two private wings that frame the central living areas. Inside, rustic materials are elevated through refined craft: hand-hewn beams, Montana Moss Rock fireplaces, birchbark cabinetry, reclaimed wood floors, custom ironwork, and layered natural textiles that bring warmth and texture to every room. Large windows frame water, meadow, and mountain views, allowing the home to live in visual dialogue with its setting. The great room is designed for gathering, while quieter spacesincluding a stone alcove office, bedroom decks, and reading nooksoffer places of retreat and reflection. The home is offered fully furnished and move-in ready, curated for comfort, continuity, and immediate enjoyment.

The Garden Sanctuary
Just beyond the house, a hand-gathered willow-branch fence encircles a kitchen garden with drifts of perennials, wildflowers, groundcovers, penstemon, poppies, thyme, campanula, roses, and more. Curving mulch paths and stepping stones weave through the plantings, leading past a moss-covered rock birdbath. A simple stone bench offers a quiet place to pause and reflect.
The result is an intimate, handcrafted retreatserene, natural, and deeply connected to the surrounding landscape.

Guest House & Supporting Structures
Guest House  841 sq ft of Tree-Set Privacy
A two-bedroom guest cottage sits among the trees, with a flowing creek just off the back deckoffering independence, quiet, and a private connection to the landscape.

Detached Garage, Studio & Barn Complex  2,501 sq ft of Utility & Flexibility
The 773 sq ft heated garage includes a studio with a 3/4 bathideal for art, office, gear, or year-round creative work. It's also perfectly suited for storing all those essential Wyoming toys.
Nearby, a greenhouse and fenced garden support seasonal living, while the 1,728 sq ft barn includes a workshop, horse stalls, and generous gear storagebuilt for four-season mountain use.

Water, Restoration & the Private Fly-Fishing Experience
Ely Springs Creek winds through the property with spring-fed, year-round flow, contributing to over a third of a mile of moving live water on the land. In 2012, the creek was restored with spawning riffles, log drops, boulder weirs, and riparian plantingsrevitalizing habitat for native cutthroat trout and strengthening the surrounding ecology.

The property's private Snake River frontage opens into walk-and-wade access to one of the West's premier dry-fly fisheriesquiet riffles, deep seams, and rising trout in a setting shared only with neighboring landowners.

Beyond the boundaries, 300+ acres of landlocked BLM land preserve wildlife habitat, scenic integrity, and the feeling of true open space.BLM land preserve wildlife habitat, scenic integrity, and the feeling of true open space.

Wildlife, Rhythm & Four-Season Living
Elk and moose wander through the front yard, grazing in the willows and pausing to drink from the streams and pond as if they belong to the property as fully as the owners do. The private river dike offers a daily loop for dog walking and sunrise exerciseor, in winter, cross-country skiing along a snow-covered corridor of stillness. Summers bring sleep-outs in the teepee with grandchildren, mornings that begin with light off the pond, and evenings that settle into creek-fed quiet.
Despite its sense of retreat, the property remains minutes from town, healthcare, and the Jackson Hole Airport.

Where Land, Water & Legacy Converge
RR Lodge is more than a homeit is a place where architecture, ecology, and landscape are held in lasting balance. Live water wraps the home, wildlife moves without disturbance, and the Tetons rise in the distance, unchanged.
For those seeking privacy without remoteness, beauty without artifice, and a deep connection to land and water
RR Lodge stands alone.
