Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect during my stay? 

We are an off-grid campground with shared bath and shower facilities. 

All campsites come equipped with a firepit and lighted outdoor seating, fresh water and a power bank for charging devices. 

Cabins and tents include a comfortable bed and hotel linens along with propane heating. 

All guests have access our outdoor kitchen equipped with barbecue, running water and cooking and dining wares. There are many spots by the river to fish, relax in a hammock or play a game of horseshoes. A variety of hiking and mountain biking trails connect the Ranch to the surrounding area. 

What do I need to bring for my stay? 

At 9000 feet elevation the ranch gets cold at night even during the hottest parts of summer. Make sure to bring plenty of warm clothing even if you’re staying in a heated cabin. It also gets very dark after the sun goes down so bring your favorite flashlight or headlamp. We will provide complimentary flashlights if you forget yours.
