Magnificent, expansive, and practical the Middle Elk Ranch boasts 260+/- acres and sits in the heart of Elk River Valley, just 15 minutes from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Built for those who value wide-open spaces, this property boasts historic water rights, a main house, a one-bedroom 3/4 bath guest cabin, large barns, outbuildings, cold freezer lockers, a natural spring, irrigation water, and multiple ponds. The main log home—five bedrooms, four baths—features a timeless ranch design with commanding views in every direction. Its vaulted ceilings and historic stone fireplace create the ideal setting to unwind after a long day and trade stories over the fire. With 150 acres of irrigated meadows, 100 acres of grazing land, and an annual yield of 250 tons of hay, this ranch is built to run a serious 50-pair cow/calf operation. The property previously housed a full-scale dairy and cheese production facility, offering additional income potential. 6 stall barn with hay loft and chutes, concrete floor shop area, machine shed, and grainery. A creek and pond sit on-site, which could be stocked with trout. The ranch is close to the main Elk River, and the surrounding community offers guided hunting, horseback riding, and winter sleigh rides. Some of the best snowmobiling and backcountry wilderness adventures await just beyond the property line. For travel, access two airports: Fly commercial from Hayden or go private through Bob Adams.
