The ranch was the site of a sawmill in the early 1900s when the old Rio Grande Southern and Galloping Goose Railroads ran through the property along the Dolores River. All that’s left now is a little shack in the middle of the meadow and some remnants of the railroad tracks in the river.

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.

Deep Roots Organic Farm

2 sites · Tents23 acres · Montrose, CO
We are an all organic farm located in Montrose Colorado! Our farm is focused on growing amazing fresh produce that we can share with as many as we can and part of that is letting our amazing campers be exposed to everything our farm has to offer. Our campers will have their campsites a little ways from our gardens so it will seem somewhat private but will have access to our produce store and farm bakery. We will continually be working on improving all aspects of our farm. We are open to the public through our produce farm so our campers will more than likely get to meet local people right here on the farm!
