About this property

The Wilson Ranch: Gorgeous Cattle Ranch House in Gypsum Valley

The Wilson Ranch is a modern log home built in 1960 but it has been kept up to be a comfortable and spacious retreat. You can also recognize this ranch from its brand 'Triangle Lazy V'. This log home resides in the beautiful Gypsum Valley (near Eagle, CO) and overlooks a working cattle ranch. The Wilson Ranch is a 3000 square foot picturesque log home that will truly help you feel you are in the heart of Colorado while still being close to grocery stores and amenities. In the ranch you can spread out and enjoy a large great room, fully equipped kitchen, outdoor fireplace deck, huge grass lawn and picnic tables, gas grill, foosball table, Dish TV, wifi and lots of space to enjoy with your family or friends.

You can have fun hanging around the ranch with recreational activities on-site: hiking, stream or lake fishing, stream-hike, or you are only moments away from some of the most breathtaking sights Colorado has to offer. It is also close to major ski resorts: Beaver Creek 25 min., Vail 35 min., and Copper Mountain 55 min. Other recreational activities you will find nearby: hiking, mountain biking, hunting, Glenwood Canyon Hanging Lake, Glenwood Springs (Olympic-size mineral pool, Glenwood Caverns, Amtrak train), Fulford Cave, fishing (lake and stream), Sylvan Lake State Park, zip line adventures, horseback riding, jeep tours and much more!

It is 3 miles to closest grocery store and only 2.5 miles from the international Eagle/Vail airport (EGE) where a car can be rented.

This log home is a haven where you can recharge your batteries and make wonderful memories. I truly believe there is no better and more peaceful place to be than looking over the gorgeous Eagle Valley on the lawn of the Wilson Ranch. But don't take my word for it, come see for yourself!

Wonderful location and amenities

This is a wonderful house, the kitchen is beautiful and very well equipped. Large number of rooms, huge dining table, and great outdoor space makes this a great place for family. My family loved being here and wish we had spent more time just enjoying the time at the house. We enjoyed all the birds, and the sounds of the aspens.

Everyone excited to arrive & no one wanted to leave. Children loved the evening board games. Everyone loved the kitchen & being able to eat all together. This is an excellent place to stay. We will definitely keep this one for another time.

Little slice of heaven!

What a little gem we found in Gypsum. The ranch was the perfect place for my family to get together. The house was spacious and well kept, with beautiful views. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and we love to cook. Great location for quick trips to Glenwood Springs, Vail, Aspen, and Breckenridge. Thank you Craig for hosting us we had a great vacation. We are already talking about our next visit.

Family reunion

The house was great and the only problems were getting I because vrbo send a bad code. We also locked ourselves out of a bedroom on accident and couldn’t find a key to open it. But the yard was great and it was the nicest place we have ever stayed as far as well equipped!! We hope to come back again.

Perfect spot for our big family vacation! The space was just right for us. Kids had a great time running around, watching for wildlife and sleeping in bunkbeds. The deck in the aspen and the incredible views out every window were some of our favorite things. Thank you, Craig, for sharing your place with us!

Another Outstanding Stay at the Wilson Ranch House

This is our second time staying at the Wilson Ranch House. The first time was back in July of 2015. This time, we were able to enjoy a family Thanksgiving together in this beautiful home. There isn't a single thing the Wilson family hasn't thought of to help visitors enjoy their time in Gypsum. As locals, my husband and I have really appreciated the opportunity to have friends / family visit us in Gypsum and have a place to stay close by. It is a house that comfortably fits a large group and is so well appointed that guests do not have to worry about a thing! Thank you, again, for opening up your house to us!!

About the host

Hosted by Craig Wilson

My name is Craig Wilson. I am the owner and coordinate the operations and reservations of family and guests staying at the Wilson Ranch. My grandfather build the ranch house in 1962 and operated a cow/calf operation of 160 head of cattle. Since that time, the ranch has been passed from one generation to another from my grandfather to my father and now to me .

We have a strong bond as a family so the ranch is a place where families can come, relax and have fun together. Our family heritage places high priority on having guests and making them feel comfortable. Our guest books at the ranch bear this out.

What makes this property unique

The Wilson Ranch is a quiet place with great vistas from any window and provides room for families and friends to gather together. Depending on the time of the year, you may see the cattle grazing nearby. It is especially fun to watch the calves during calving season March through May.
