The Ranch
The Ranch is very active with herds of sheep and cattle roaming the pastures, chickens that provide fresh, free-range eggs to all of our guests, and friendly cats and dogs that oversee it all. Five guesthouses on the Ranch side perfect for family and friends’ reunions and experience the real life farm and ranch lifestyle.
Sky Village
With ruins and rock art just within walking distance, the majestic view of the sacred Sleeping Ute Mountain, endless terrain to explore, and a mystic dark sky, Sky Village is perfect for those who love to enjoy peace and solitude. The two dwellings, Star Tower & Sky Kiva, were inspired by ancient ruins around the Four Corners Region.
