Located 36 miles south of Gunnison, Colorado, the 2,117+/- deeded acre Powderhorn Ranch is an outstanding mountain retreat in one of the most scenic and private settings imaginable. The ranch occupies the broad parklands comprising Summit Park in addition to mountain slopes, ridges, and canyons forested with a mosaic of aspen groves, mountain meadows, and dark timber.

A 2,800+/- square foot lodge sit on a bluff above Beaver Creek within the core of the ranch. Well-suited for family and guest use, the off-grid lodge complements the natural landscape while providing a comfortable gathering place for family, friends, and clients. The ranch is home to an abundance of wildlife and sits within Colorados Game Unit (GMU) 67 regarded as one of the preeminent trophy mule deer units in the Western United States. Ownership receives unit-wide landowner vouchers for deer and elk each year and has carefully managed the hunting through selective harvest practices and outstanding pasture enhancements. Nearly 250+/- acres of strategically located pasturelands have been improved for wildlife by comprehensive harrowing, planting, and over-seeding with carefully selected native forbs and grasses. Small creeks, springs, and ponds insure ample water for wildlife and livestock. A cattle tenant runs summer grazing operations on the property as well as 9,245+/- acres of adjacent permitted BLM lands. The cattle tenant is a knowledgeable local resource who ensures ease of ownership by patrolling the ranch and opening and closing the lodge for ownership.
