Historic
Holzwarth Ranch
New
this season, our Holzwarth Ranch tour is quickly
becoming a popular choice. Enjoy the spectacular scenery
of Rocky Mountain National Park on your way to the
Holzwarth Historic Site.
We
will take you over the Continental Divide on Trail
Ridge Road and down into the spectacular Kaueneeche
Valley for a unique opportunity to visit a genuine
Dude Ranch, as it was in the 1920's.
Restored
to it 1920 status, you can now see what guest paid two
dollars a day or eleven dollars a week for room and
board on the American Plan (2 meals a day). Sophie
(mama) Holzwarth added to the atmosphere by preparing
scrumptious home-cooked meals, serving local trout,
deer and grouse, and supplementing these with
ranch-produced chickens, eggs and milk. All this was
prepared in the kitchen of the first homestead cabin,
the "Mama" Cabin. It was western dude
ranching, as it originally existed: plain and
primitive, but delightful.
