August 2024Wildcat Ranch a relaxing paradise
We enjoyed our stay in this fantastic home. The terrace offers a marvelous view on the Sangre de Christo range, a jacuzzi and fireplace. The home has all conforts you may think of. If you want to have the feeling of the paradise you have found it! ”

July 2024Paradise in the Mountains
Our family loved Wildcat Ranch! It is an experience in seclusion where you come into the ranch properties and are greeted by cows passing through. The hone is well outfitted and has an expansive deck and tons of seating and a huge hot tub, grill and firepit to enjoy the lovely mounrqin views. The home has love and character and the owner is super helpful and responsive! Westcliffe has amazing art galleries and wuaint shops and restauranra and you can easily hit Salida for rafting and ziplining about 45 minutes north via a beautiful drive! ”

July 2022Unique and restful Rockies Experience
Super hosts..generous and attentive. Vast, very nicely appointed home with great views. Sky was sunny, air was dry, which was a treat for us. It is a “dark sky” location, for stargazers. This is a luxurious home, situated on a working cattle ranch, and they tour by. Location is well-positioned to drive less than an hour to enjoy Alpine nature. I particularly enjoyed fly fishing in the Arkansas River, which was both beautiful and accessible. Lake Isabel, also a pleasant day trip. Closer in, the town of Westcliffe (pop +600), has the essentials. We found two nice restaurants. Capacity and hours are limited. Westcliffe is an authentic Colorado working town, with few out -of -state plates. If you have a medical condition which might require immediate treatment, you should do due diligence. Very relaxing and unique experience…would look forward to next visit.”
