Stay and ride

One place to sleep, and to ride.

Every other lodge sends you elsewhere for the adventure. Here the ranch is the adventure. You wake up on a thousand private acres at ten thousand feet, ride the high country with a guide out front, and come back to the same fire. No booking three vendors, no crowds, no trail permits — one owner-run outfit, every season.

Summer on the mountainWinter on the mountain

Ride out the front door.

The same owner-guides who run the lodge run the rides. Small groups, current-year machines, and terrain that is ours alone — then the high public roads when you want more.

The Lodge

Five thousand square feet, on the mountain.

Five bedrooms and a sleeping loft. Five decks and a fire pit. A fifth-floor observation lounge where the whole Sawatch Range lines up in the glass — Mount Elbert and Mount Massive, the two highest peaks in Colorado, and Turquoise Lake below. Bring the whole crew for a multi-day ride, or the whole ranch just for the quiet.

The land

The highest country in Colorado, and it's yours for the weekend.

Leadville is the highest city in North America, at 10,152 feet. Around it: Turquoise Lake, the fourteeners Elbert and Massive, a century of silver-and-gold mining roads and ghost towns, and Mosquito Pass — the highest through-road you can drive on the continent. Every ride is a story, not a lap.
