About Yellowstone Film Ranch

The Western Backlot is styled after a late 1800s gold rush town uniquely located in Montana’s pristine Paradise Valley. The vast sagebrush and forested serenity offer a 360 degree view of glacier mountain peaks, rolling hills, and Emigrant Peak.

YFR offers multiple fully functional interior/exterior sets with numerous support buildings and façades to create the look of thirty unique structures with two intersecting streets. Of these finished interiors, there is a church with preacher quarters, a town hall, livery, jail, sheriff’s office, a bank with an authentic 1860s counter, a general store, a guest house, a saloon with a brothel and bathhouse, two cabins, a prairie farmhouse, a Victorian homestead with a wrap-around porch, a barn, a well, and a mine entrance. There are several support structures available for interchangeable interior sets and additional period sets and landscapes are scattered throughout surrounding areas, including a wooden log cabin by a stream.

YFR’s team is a valuable point of contact for filmmakers, with production planning, and location and accomodation services.
