Royal Springs Ranch

Located only 30 miles south of Steamboat Springs, Royal Springs Ranch sits in the middle of prime elk habitat. Its 748 deeded acres and 640 leased acres encompass everything a trophy bull elk would love, with a favorable blend of meadows, dark timber, aspen groves, and plentiful ponds and small creeks. This is no rustic hunting camp, however. A luxurious two-story home with 5 bedrooms is the hub of the ranch, with first-class views in every direction. A separate new cabin treats guests in style, and those looking for a more traditional hunting quarters can take advantage of the Outfitter’s Camp, complete with two Davis wall tents. In addition to hunting, Royal Springs Ranch is well suited to hiking, horseback riding, and four-wheeling, with a planned road and trail system throughout. Explore the ranch or head out into many miles of the adjoining Routt National Forest. Stagecoach Reservoir, with fabulous fishing in the lake and its Yampa River tailwater, lies only 12 miles away, and the legendary resort of Steamboat Springs, with downhill skiing, cultural events, and world-class dining less than an hour’s drive. How many other places can you enjoy a fine meal and a symphony orchestra in the evening, then wake up the next morning in the midst of bugling elk?
