The original homestead cabin from 1903 is still here! This became our home when my husband retired because it is his dream. Our Highland cattle have personality plus!! The river wrapping around the ranch at the foot of the mountain washes away the stress and leaves a peace here that fills the spirit with calm. We love the land, the bald eagles, the wildlife, our guests and each other! Learn more about this land: Sleep in your RV with the sound of the river lulling you to recharge and just breath in the peace. We have a great boat ramp with a put-in and a place to kayak, tube, raft or fish! Great hiking trails nearby and a quiet country road to bike that the big bike races use. Our Scottish Highland cows give kisses are happy to share your carrots, apples and watermelon! We only rent two spots to keep it peaceful here.Sleep in your RV with the sound of the river lulling you to recharge and just breath in the peace.

Peaceful respite from city life
12 ft pop-up camper
Convenient access from Dotsero, only 13 miles upstream. The sites were situated nicely facing the river, with beautiful views of the opposing cliffs. There was 30A power for each site, and a hose for potable water nearby. The hosts were very nice, and their two dogs were happy for a round of petting but not always in camp with us. I'll definitely revisit them next summer! We spent 3 comfortable nights there in mid-October.

Quiet! Safe! Beautiful! Friendly!
10 ft travel trailer
Nancy and Jerry are terrific hosts. It’s pretty cool be be right there on the fringe of their working ranch, but they and their staff are very unobtrusive… They are very nice people, very personable (if you seek them out,) and the property is even more beautiful than the pictures. We would highly recommend to anyone to consider their ranch as a quiet and very safe destination! Observing their Scottish Highland cattle is pretty amazing as well! If you like eggs, be sure to purchase some of the quail eggs they sell.. They are very tasty!

Peace on the river!

We had a lovely stay right on the river. It is a very mellow section of the river so my young kids could play in the water without too much concern. We floated right from there down stream.

Cute cows & hookups
25 ft travel trailer
Beautiful views, camping by a river, friendly cute cows, and gracious hosts make this a place we'll return to at least a couple more times. The electrical hookup (30A) worked fine and Nancy has hose/potable water available; next time I'll haul my trailer over the divide and Vail pass w/the fresh water tank empty then fill up when I get there. There's a beautiful (but a bit long) drive to Steamboat. Gas is pricey in Gypsom and Steamboat but Glenwood Springs and Rifle are relatively close by. The sites are well kept and the roads to their ranch are paved until their driveway (which is dirt but easily traveled w/RV in tow). The WiFi also works great.
