Property Description
Middle Elk Ranch: a magnificent, working ranch of approximately 260 acres in the heart of the Elk River Valley, just 15 minutes from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Designed for those who value space and productivity, the property includes historic water rights, a main log residence, a 1-bedroom, 3/4-bath guest log cabin, multiple barns and outbuildings, cold storage lockers, a natural spring, irrigation water, and several ponds. The five-bedroom, four-bath main home showcases timeless ranch architecture with vaulted ceilings, a historic stone fireplace, and sweeping views in every directionâan inviting setting to relax and gather. Agricultural assets include roughly 150 irrigated acres, 100 acres of grazing, and an average annual hay yield of about 250 tons, supporting a comfortable 50-pair cow/calf operation. The ranch previously operated a full dairy and cheese facility, offering potential for diversified income. Improvements feature a six-stall barn with hay loft and chutes, a concrete-floor shop, machine shed, and grainery. A creek and on-site pond offer opportunities for trout stocking, and the property is close to the Elk River. Nearby, enjoy guided hunting and fishing, horseback riding, winter sleigh rides, premier snowmobiling, and direct access to backcountry adventures. Travel is simple with commercial air service via Hayden and private access through Steamboat Springs.
