McElmo Creek Guest Ranch is a rare opportunity to own a working guest ranch surrounded by the scenic grandeur of southwest Colorado, near Cortez and the Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. The property offers an inviting mix of adventure, comfort, and cultural exploration. Guests stay in thoughtfully designed cabins or a spacious lodge that blends rustic charm with modern amenities. The ranch provides direct access to miles of hiking and biking trails that lead to cliff dwellings, ancient rock art, and sweeping vistas. After a day outdoors, guests often unwind at a nearby vineyard, enjoying locally crafted wines. McElmo Creek Guest Ranch is also a center for community and sustainability, offering educational workshops on archaeology, ecology, and traditional crafts. Evenings bring the magic of stargazing around a campfire, thanks to the area’s clear, dark skies. With a strong reputation in print and film, the ranch is ready for its next steward. The current owners, who will remain nearby, are dedicated to supporting a smooth and successful transition for the next chapter.
