1. The Ranch Is Real
The Yellowstone Dutton Ranch is a real place called Chief Joseph Ranch, located in Darby, Montana. It's named after the Nez Perce chief who led his people across the land in 1877, and was run by a glass tycoon and federal judge until it became a guest ranch, run by the glass tycoon's wife and daughters. 

2. And You Can Stay There

You can rent out cabins on the real Yellowstone ranch, and you can only get a tour of the set and ranch if you're renting a cabin. The two cabins available to stay in are Lee's cabin, which becomes John's cabin in Season 2, and Rip's cabin. They cost, at minimum, $1200 a night. 

3. A Log Cabin Dream

While you can't rent the lodge house, it is also very real. The log mansion is 6,000 square feet and was finished in 1920, and according to a New York Times article from 1993, a 42-pound pet bobcat used to snooze by the fireplace. Beginning in 1987, the house was owned and repaired by Melvin Pervais, a nuclear systems control engineer and member of the Chippewa tribe. 

4. It's All Filmed In Montana Now
Filming locations originally included stages in Park City, Utah, but in 2020, all of the filming was moved to Montana. All new stages were built in Missoula, with filming also taking place in Hamilton and at the nearby ranch.
