Company Description

Smith Fork Ranch is a family-owned guest ranch with a current capacity of 26-28 guests.  This intimate, high-end guest ranch is located roughly midway between Aspen and Telluride, Colorado.  Straddling three miles of the Smith Fork River Valley, its compound of historic buildings sits at 7100 feet altitude, surrounded by 1.2 million acres of the Gunnison National Forest and 10,000-12,000 ft peaks of the West Elk Range of the Rocky Mountains.  The ranch is located about 7 miles East of the town of Crawford (pop 350) and 25 minutes from the north rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park;  2 hours from Aspen; 2 1/2 hours from Telluride; 1 3/4 hours from Grand Junction, 4 1/2 hours SW of Denver, Colorado.

While the ranch dates back to the early 20th century, its current life as a high-end guest ranch began only five years ago, after an extensive three-year restoration by the Hodgson family.

In addition to its stunningly beautiful location, primary characteristics are handsomely appointed accommodations in the rustic tradition; a wine cellar of over 250 outstanding wines; gourmet cuisine; and a wide variety of outdoor activities (featuring fly fishing on extensive private waters and horseback riding).
