Post Office Ranch Log Cabin - rates subject to change for groups over 2 people

EXTRA-GUEST CHARGE FOR GROUPS OF MORE THAN 2: $20 PER NIGHT, PER-GUEST, FOR EVERY PERSON OVER 2 PEOPLE

This beautiful, spacious log cabin (lovingly called Grizzly Adams) was the second cabin to be built on our 300-acre working cattle ranch for you and your family's enjoyment. The cabin was completed in June of 2012 and has 1500 sq. ft. of usable floor area.

It is equipped with a fully furnished kitchen (large electric range, dishwasher, and refrigerator with an ice maker), three doored bedrooms with Queen beds, a sleeping loft with a full bed (and a couch that makes into a full), two bathrooms (one upstairs and one down), a living room, and two flat screen TVs. The bedrooms offer comfy beds and large walk-in closets.

Outside, there's a large warp-around deck boasting cozy rocking chairs (perfect for drinking in the beautiful, panoramic mountain views). A gas grill, picnic tables, and fire pit are all provided to help make your stay a memorable one. Rates: $225/night for groups of 2, with a $20 extra-guest fee for every guest over 2.

Memorable & Breathtaking Stay!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Post Office Ranch! Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived and were greeted by the kind host:) We made such incredible memories. My husband and I, along with our 4 daughters, adored the friendly horses, and were blown away by the unforgettable sunrises, breathtaking starry nights, adorable towns and even our picturesque snow-dusting departure. It was so hard to leave, but we hope to return soon! Everything about the place made us feel like we were in a hallmark movie🎄

Great Vacation Spot
This cabin was very nice, clean, quiet, fantastic view of the meadow with mountains and the peaceful sound of the brook off the porch. Well stocked kitchen, great fire pit area, comfy beds, and plenty space to stretch out. We enjoyed walking down to the river or just sitting in the log rockers on the porch visiting. Only a few miles to town, and great day trips only an hour away. Can't wait to go back with the whole family next summer!

About the host

Hosted by Dean Roberts

Host profile image
Father purchased ranch when I was 3 yrs. old. I grew up here and was able to raise my 3 children with my beautiful wife of 39 years. Family operated a dairy on ranch till 1981. Had to go to work for the state to make a living. Retired in 2004 and put the ranch into a conservation easement and built these cabins for you.

Why they chose this property

Provides a great get-away for you and your family and friends. From the cabin there are great views of the mountains. Monarch ski area is a short 12 miles away in the winter and world class white water rafting is just minutes away. Has 1 mile of south Arkansas River frontage and has 1 acre trout pond

What makes this property unique

This Historic working cattle ranch offers unsurpassed beauty and solitude. Great fishing and wildlife viewing await you. Cabin was finished in June of 2012. You will appreciate the uniqueness and beauty of the furnishings.
