Steamboat Springs

With over 350 acres of varied topography, Steamboat’s Elk Meadows Ranch is an impressive recreation property located 8 miles from Steamboat Springs. Overlooking several miles of the Elk River corridor and providing protective cover for wildlife, the ranch is a magnet for the big game animals indigenous to Northwest Colorado. The 5,460 s.f. custom home has been carefully designed to capture eye-popping views of the Steamboat ski area and the continental divide. Built with recreation in mind, the house has an oversized garage with loft storage, ski lockers in the mudroom, and a stone patio with a fire pit. A private trail that loops around the entire ranch along the ridges and valleys entices hiking, riding, and wildlife-watching excursions. Located in a prime resort area with plenty of hold and exit strategies, Elk Meadows Ranch is a thoroughly enjoyable asset.

The Yampa River flows through this ranch for over 1.5 miles. With few public access points along the Yampa River and nearly all of the land in private ownership, there is very little crowding and the fishing is some of the best in the state.
