About this property

The Lazy River Ranch

This Grand Mountain Lodge sits on the banks of the mighty Rio Grande. This property is one of the most unique river properties in the West with approximately 15 acres nestled in the river bottom. The views and solitude of this property are unprecedented. The waterfowl flies past the property on a daily basis and the summer menagerie of birds provides a majestic chorus of nature. There are deer and other wildlife that frequent the property. If you are looking for a mountain retreat that is nestled away this is your answer. This home is close to the South Fork, CO and only about 29 minutes from Wolf Creek Ski Area. The open floor-plan and vaulted ceilings make this a Grand home with the large rock fireplace extending from floor to ceiling. The kitchen provides lots of space for entertaining. This is an incredible property for family gatherings and smaller weddings. One can also inquire about the guest cottage next door when scheduling your family vacation.
