Spirit of the West

Upon arrival, you’ll see many features of an authentic working ranch — horses grazing in the meadow, playful collies that greet you at the door, and chickens free-ranging for crickets in the grass. Cattle lay relaxing together along a classic wooden 'Russell' fence-line.

The Ranch is owned and operated by a multi-generation family who are avid outdoor enthusiasts and genuine wilderness dwellers. Their many stories of homesteading in the wild, including how they fought a wildfire to save the ranch, are as compelling as the special experiences they curate for guests.
