VandeWater Ranch encompasses almost a mile and a half of both sides of Fish Creek and another Âź mile of Lake Creek which join on the ranch to create an extraordinary blueribbon fishery most of us only dream of. Fish Creek flows are supplemented while traversing the ranch by many cold clear spring creeks which creates exceptional opportunity for water and fishery enhancement.

Jackson Hole derives its magnetism not only from the area’s vast, beautiful lands and native wildlife, but also from its limitless outdoor recreation opportunities. Skiing, hiking, camping, fishing and more are just out our back door. The region comes complete with three local ski resorts, a plethora of 18-hole golf courses, diverse trout fishing waters, and large pockets of public lands for various use. Jackson Hole has become known for its happening nightlife, cultural activities, diverse and abundant restaurants, luxurious spas, world renowned music festival, art galleries and a fabulous summer farmer’s market. One of town’s most recent additions is the Center for the Arts. The pavilion offers plenty of space for art classes, non-profit organizations, art exhibits and studios. The complex also includes a state-of-the-art theater for hosting shows. Jackson Hole has daily jet service from major cities with Delta, Frontier, American, Skywest and United.

Tax Benefits of Ownership in Wyoming There are numerous reasons why those who live in Jackson Hole have chosen to have their primary residences here. Some of those reasons are emotional, such as the sheer beauty of the natural surroundings and the tremendous quality of life. Other reasons are more practical in scope and include Wyoming’s overall tax-climate benefits. For years, Bloomberg has rated Wyoming as the most tax-friendly state in the U.S. HERE’S WHY . . . NO personal or corporate state income tax. Shield your real estate from federal estate taxes for up to 1,000 years through a dynasty trust. A key point to remember is that the trust must be administered in Wyoming. NO inheritance tax or estate tax. Wyoming repealed its estate tax as of January 1, 2005. NO state gift tax. You can ‘gift’ your real estate to your heirs without paying a tax. NO tax on out-of-state retirement income. Low property taxes compared to other states. NO excise taxes. When you fill up your car’s gas tank or buy a bag of groceries in Wyoming, you will not pay any state tax on your gas or food. NO intangible taxes on financial assets like stocks and bonds. NO tax on the sale of real estate. NO tax on mineral ownership.
