The Rockin’ Rose Ranch is a 320-acre "Legacy" guest/cattle ranch rich in history. It is close to towns and cities, yet a secluded Western Colorado paradise set in a private valley with a rustic feel reminiscent of Montana but with a milder climate. Originally, it was the headquarter ranch for the entire valley. It not only accommodates family and fun but as well, cow/calf pairs and organic steers. The ranch has a healthy elk population that resides and calves in the adjacent Gunnison National Forest that surrounds the ranch on three sides. Muddy Creek borders the northern boundary, and many spring-fed ponds provide both stock water and wildlife habitat. A sizable pond below the main ranch compound is stocked with trout. A beautiful, rustic ranch gate leads to an impressive entry lane with vintage pole fencing on both sides all the way to the ranch compound.

The updated Rustic improvements include a main cabin with fireplace that features a generous light-filled sun porch/dining area, a large deck, living room, and half bath and 4 bedrooms with queen-size beds. Next to the main cabin is the charming Rose Cabin with a king bed, a game room, and a bedroom behind the game room, has a king bed, they are all serviced by a large his and hers bathhouse and large laundry room. The bunkhouse has a kitchen, living and dining area, and two bedrooms, one with a king and one with three twins. And don’t forget the restored sheepherders’ wagon that can sleep two more. A total of 19 guests can stay in the main compound if using the wagon.
