Homestead on the Frying Pan River, An Outdoor Enthusiasts' Dream!

THE SPACE
This three bedroom homestead, nestled on the hillside and surrounded by pasturelands with grazing horses and cattle, sets the perfect scene for a true mountain getaway at this working cattle ranch! This unique log home, built in the 1940's, features exposed logs and brick, hardwood and stone flooring and incredible views of the White River National Forest.

The spacious great room, furnished with South American antiques, is perfect for cozy evenings spent together playing games, watching movies or relaxing. The dining room is bright with oversized windows overlooking the beautiful mountainside and spacious outdoor patio. During warmer months, evenings spent dining outdoors, making s'mores in the fireplace and enjoying the amazing views and mountain breezes are a must!

The comfortable master bedroom has a king bed and beautiful mountain views. The guest bedrooms are both furnished with two twin beds, one with an en suite bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to prepare a meal.

Great Place to Recharge
Ideal location up Frying Pan Rd. If you’re in need of some R&R, this is a good spot. Inside and outside was a little buggy but it’s is an old cabin on a ranch so expected it. Can’t beat the fishing.

Great location on the frying pan
Amazing, spacious home with great fishing access. We really enjoyed the pond area and the stretch of private water. As a family traveling with a curious toddler, we would have appreciated a heads up on the mouse traps.

Fly fishers.
Awesome place!! Need to have more toilet paper and paper towels. Not enough for four people and for a week stay. Mice were in the kitchen and the bees outside the kitchen door are heavy in numbers. One of our guest could have become very ill if stung.
