Just 15 miles west of Steamboat Springs, the Buffalo K Ranch was originally established as a buffalo hunting ranch annually carrying 150 head of bison. Perfect setting for the next recreational enthusiast, the 585 acres already includes a three-bedroom main residence, two bunk houses with covered porches, caretakers’ cabin and two large metal shops. Easy access from Steamboat Springs and Yampa Valley Regional Airport, the ranch encompasses much of the original mining town of Mt. Harris, has two spring fed ponds, two domestic wells and is fenced and cross fenced. Approximately 12 acres of the ranch include the Yampa River but due to topography are difficult to access. Seasonally flowing, Wolf Creek, with cottonwood habitat runs through much of the acreage and the ranch’s west perimeter is showcased by 200’ sandstone cliffs with caves and original Native American petroglyphs.
The ranch is currently grazed by cattle during the summer season and contains good habitat for elk, deer and bear. Late fall season sees larger numbers of elk migrating through the property. Ranch is comprised of 11 parcels and can be easily subdivided.
