The ranch is based at our home, a 1890s homestead with a historic three-story red barn, nestled in the Cottonwood River Valley in Chase County, Kansas. The ranch normally has 50 horses, 250 cow-calf pairs, and 2,000 stocker cattle. We have been welcoming guests for the past several years to enjoy our beautiful scenery, wildlife, and to share in our rich ranching heritage.
