Elk, deer, duck... and trout

Whether you're looking for a base camp for archery elk, a trophy deer destination or a perfect place to fish, we have you covered. Our ranch is located on a Gold Medal stretch of the Rio Grande, and we're just a stone's throw from some of the best elk and deer hunting in the state. Located in the mountains just north of the ranch on private property surrounded by National Forest, our rustic cabins are a perfect basecamp for elk or deer hunts. Looking for a guided hunt? Let us know and we can put you in touch with local guides who know the area well. We can also connect you with excellent local fishing guides for a wade or float trip on the Rio Grande or any one of our other amazing local waters.
