About Saddlehorn Ranch
Saddlehorn Ranch is an impeccably maintained luxury property on 105 acres situated at 8,000 ft in the pristine San Juan mountains, within a 35 minutes’ drive to Historic Pagosa Springs. The 40 acres of lush meadows and barn/house sites are fenced, while the remaining 65 acres consist of mature pine forest and aspen groves that provide shelter to an abundance of wildlife, including its own visiting resident herd of Rocky Mountain elk. The property includes 3 ponds and a seasonal creek that provides irrigation to the meadows.
