Buffalo Ranch
Good place to overnight. I was confused a little when driving in but everything worked out. Road is nearby but not to noisy especially after 9 pm. We didn’t use the fire pit due to a fire ban but the pit looks good.

I only dropped off a U-Haul trailer to store while I explored Steamboat but the place is in a beautiful location and Taylor was great to accommodate us on short notice!

Just right for us as we passed through the area.
Great sunset, could hear the Yampa River, and the view was nice

Easy to find with a GREAT fireplace pit! It was nice to have a place we could bring the dogs to without worrying about other dogs around.. Thanks!

Easy access, pretty view, quiet, loved not having a lot of people around us so the dogs could play. Owner was very nice and let us come a little early and provide wood for the fire. Definitely would recommend and will come back again

A perfect spot to Winter Camp for an excellent weekend of skiing at Steamboat. Our host Taylor was more than accommodating and super helpful for me and the gang. An easy trip to town, in a nice quiet area with amazing open skies. Would definitely recommend to any van, truck, or rooftop tent campers.

We stayed in our camper van to ski at steamboat and Taylor’s place was perfect for what we needed. About 20 minutes away from the resort. Taylor was quick to respond with any questions we had. We will definitely be back!

Good view of the mountains and river. Not too far of a drive to steamboat. Hosts leave you alone and pretty mountain countryside.

Good as a pit stop when you just need a place to sleep, but not great if you want to actually enjoy camping. This site is behind what appears to be a welding shop, so there's lots of random machinery on the property.
It also isn't well signed and the host wasn't communicative, so we ended up just parking our trailer in a random spot because we couldn't find the fire pit when we arrived at night.

For $50 this was a crummy place. No host.
Camping spot was not marked hard to access through tall grass. No facility ( not even a portapotty) road noise at night from Hwy 40.
No obvious trash receptacle. Junky grounds all about.

Private campsite with a fire pit and little patio. Taylor also keeps a wood scrap pile nearby for burning too. Just beware that the grass is pretty tall so a few mosquitos around. The fire smoke and bug spray kept them at bay though, so no real issue. Beautiful views of the hills around!

Buffalo Ranch
Overall, this site was good, however, it was not exactly as pictured. It felt like we were camping in someone’s front yard/ junk yard. The site was very close to a house and a workshop, and we could see/hear the highway. I’m not sure what the listing ment when it said there was room for privacy, as it seemed like this was the only place to camp. However, when looking towards the river, the views were beautiful and the location was great.
Overall, this site felt overpriced at $65 total to sleep in someone’s front yard, but we were satisfied with the experience.

The area of Buffalo Ranch was a lovely sight to see with the sunrise and sunset. The grass and soft soil were ideal for tenting and pitching tarps. Also the large open fire pit was great for both cooking and chilling alike. Also the site's proximity to town was a huge win. Very good place to stay.

Taylor was a great host, we had no trouble finding the space and had a peaceful rest! Close enough to steamboat and perfect to hit the road the next day to Wyoming! Thanks Taylor!

We winter camped to snowboard at steamboat springs. It was a great option during the peak of the season. If there’s lots of snow you will want a car that can make it through unplowed roads

Taylor was very communicative. His ranch is easy to find and convenient for Steamboat plus the price is right!
