  • The Ranch Access and Community Recreation Fee is 11.25% of the nightly rate. For non-Black Butte Ranch managed vacation homes, access fees are $9 per person, per day for ages 7 and older, year round. (rates are subject to change). These access fees help to offset some of the costs associated with maintaining Ranch facilities.

  • Rates are per night; minimum night stays may apply.
  • During our high season* we require a four-night minimum stay when staying over a Friday or Saturday in a full service accommodation.

  • Upon check-in, BBR Corporation authorizes $300.00 for Ranch charging privileges and/or damages. BBR Corporation strongly encourages the use of credit cards for the authorization, rather than debit cards.
  • Full service accommodations are those cabins, homes and condos that include a kitchen (Excludes Lodge Rooms).

Early check-ins are not available during peak business times.
