Welcome to Colorado's Wilderness Ranch

    Wilderness Ranch is a unique and one of the most desired locations in Northwestern Colorado. Not only is this a great place for your custom mountain getaway, it is the perfect "jumping off point" to the BLM and National Forest public lands bordering Wilderness Ranch.

    Wilderness Ranch Board Members have completed the construction of the fence at the forest access parcel between Lot 874 and Lot 824 on Forest Service Rd. Great Job!! Thank you Emily for the pictures.

    You will enjoy endless views of some of the most beautiful country the world has to offer. MooseWilderness Ranch Reserve is available to all members in good standing and will provide the privacy you desire in the mountains, as well as immediate access to the vast recreational opportunities that Colorado is famous for. The covenants are written to be favorable to the recreational owner.

    Located about 30 miles North and East of Craig, Colorado, Wilderness Ranch consists of approximately 10,000 acres and is located in one of the best recreational areas in the state. Whether you prefer big game hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, snowmobiling, or just enjoying the peace and quiet, you can do it all right out your front door. This is a great place for the whole family to enjoy year after year. There is almost endless room to explore in the nearby Routt National Forest. No matter the time of year, there is always something to do while you are at Wilderness Ranch. Whether it is camping and horseback riding in the spring/summer, chasing trophy Elk, Mule Deer, and Bear in the fall, or snowmobiling and cross-country skiing in the beautiful white powder of winter, you will have a picturesque point to do it from. Regardless of your reasons for wanting to be in the Colorado wilderness, you will love the recreational opportunities  in the Wilderness Ranch Subdivision and the surrounding public lands.

    The Wilderness Ranch Landowners Annual  Fall Meeting is being held on Lot 826, Friday, October 25, 2024 at 6:00 PM. If you haven’t had dinner, chili will be served.
