Property Description
Spanning 411± acres, the ranch offers a striking variety of terrain—lush irrigated meadows, rolling pastures, aspen groves, and forested mountain parks—all rich with wildlife, including elk, mule deer, black bears, bald eagles, and waterfowl.
At the heart of the property is a beautifully restored 1880s lodge, now the primary residence, masterfully updated by renowned Western architect Jonathan Foote. Original hand-hewn beams and a stone fireplace blend seamlessly with modern comforts like a gourmet kitchen and bar area. An expansive stone patio beside the pond is shaded by old-growth cottonwood, spruce, and aspen—ideal for outdoor gatherings.
Three charming guest cabins, preserved from the property's Girl Scout camp days, provide cozy accommodations. Operational and equestrian facilities are conveniently situated nearby, yet thoughtfully separated from the main compound to maintain privacy.
Despite its seclusion, the Ranch on Sweetwater is remarkably accessible via a well-maintained county road that dead-ends shortly beyond the property at Sweetwater Lake—minimizing traffic. Year-round access is easy, with Gypsum's commercial airport just 35–40 minutes away and Vail reachable within an hour. Fully improved and offered turnkey, this legacy retreat blends Western heritage, luxurious comfort, and endless recreational opportunity.
