Secluded Ranch House on the Rio Grande River

Cross a charming railroad bridge to this welcoming cottage-style farmhouse, located on 200+ acres along the Rio Grande River. This one-of-a-kind property is a working cattle ranch and is family owned and operated. This secluded ranch is located minutes away from mountainous Del Norte, Colorado. Del Norte is home to delightful restaurants, distilleries, and breweries.
Around Del Norte, there are many scenic hikes, bike trails, kayaking, rafting, rock climbing, fishing, and skiing. A local enjoyment would be the "play wave" and an appealing river walk both just minutes away along the Rio Grande River. Scenes are unbelievable at this distinct river ranch. The curiosities of Wolf Creek Ski Area (35 minutes away) are one of many attractions surrounding this breathtaking area. Wolf Creek is known for "the most snow in Colorado." An hour away is The Great Sand Dunes National Park. This National Park has an enormous amount of places of interest including, hiking the dunes and exploring nearby Zapata Falls. With all the refreshing attractions, sites, and landscapes we hope you will find your stay relaxing and enjoyable.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Very clean with the exception of a strong mold/mildew smell and soft spots in the floor in the master bath. Spoke with host and it’s next on the list to get updated. Enjoyed watching the deer in the back and side yard. Lots of open room so it never felt cramped. Comfy bed and furniture.

Awesome farmhouse close to Wolf Creek!

This place was great for our small group ski trip. The drive to Wolf Creek was easy and took less than 30m. There was a grocery store nearby. Country feel but close to town.

Clean and cozy old farmhouse on the river. The hosts were fabulous and so was the trout fishing on private land. The San Jaun mountains to the west offer hiking and biking. My boys expressed a desire to come back for multiple days next time and we surely will. Thank you for a great stay, wish we were there for more than 1 day!

Enjoyed this quiet and secluded place. The house was perfect for our group. The kids enjoyed the freedom of being out where they could play without disturbing anyone. It’s a great place to just enjoy being outside and making memories with the grandkids. We hope we can go back sometime.
