This 30,000-acre Relais & Château retreat has mastered the fine art of healthy holiday hedonism by mixing tailormade ‘adult only’ adventures with luxury since the late 1980s. More red carpet than rugged, Triple Creek´s’s 25 beautifully appointed accommodations, set in the Bitterroot mountain range of the Rockies in the west of the state, feature wood-burning fireplaces, original Western art work and hot tubs.
