Thunder Heart Horse Sanctuary

1 site · LodgingRidgway, CO

This property on Amelia Street is the only 10-acre parcel in Ridgway. Years ago, it was part of a larger parcel, owned by an eccentric woman - a very wealthy land owner. She and the famous Marie Scott were land-owning buddies back in the day. I purchased this land in 1999 and actually moved onto the property in 2005 after renovations. The cabin you will be staying in was renovated in 2012 when a bathroom was added. The property supports horses and llamas. All are friendly, most of them are retired - the horses, that is...the llamas are lawn ornaments.Cottonwood Creek and the Dallas River run through the property.
