This diverse 340-acre property borders large ranches and sits in the heart of Northwest Colorado’s largest elk migratory corridor. Located just below Pilot’s Knob off County Road 80, it’s a scenic one-hour drive from Steamboat Springs.
The centerpiece of this family retreat is a spacious, custom barn with a heated shop, a fully appointed kitchen, a cozy living room with fireplace, multiple bedrooms, and a master suite featuring a private deck overlooking the ponds.
Known as the “Center of the Universe” for recreational access, Yellow Dog Ranch offers varied terrain—aspens, dark timber, open meadows, dispersed springs, and four large adjudicated ponds. Located in Colorado Game Unit 441, the habitat is ideal for attracting big game. The ponds not only offer aesthetic beauty and recreation (like paddle boarding and fishing for rainbow trout) but also include adjudicated water rights and a developed spring for ample domestic use.
Since 2007, the current owner has spared no detail. From the welded-pipe gated entrance to the custom barn’s design, every element blends functionality and family comfort. This isn’t just a “guys’ hunting camp”—it’s a gourmet chef’s delight and a serene escape for all ages, complete with outdoor fire pit. The ultimate setting for s’mores and family stories.
Bordering millions of acres of USFS lands—including California Park and Slater Park—adventure awaits, with ATV trails leading all the way to Steamboat Lake and Wyoming.
Schedule your tour of Yellow Dog Ranch today and experience this thoughtfully crafted legacy property in Northwest Colorado.
