Ranch in the middle, National forest all around
The privacy of an Inholding
The Smith Fork Ranch is a private “Inholding” surrounded by one million acres of National Forest. The property is nestled in a mountain river valley accented by majestic surrounding peaks. While the property is only a few minutes from town, you’ll feel far off the beaten path in the sanctuary of nature. Miles of private river, streams, forests, pastures and ponds provide endless entertainment and relaxation for all ages. And the surrounding trails, peaks, and Aspen groves will keep everyone, from casual hikers to extreme outdoor adventurers, busy for days on end.
Introducing Bespoke All-Inclusive
Welcome to a new genre of luxury travel. Our Experience Design team creates your ranch with our “Bespoke All-Inclusive” approach. Accommodations include 6 luxury houses and cabins, offering a total of18 bedrooms for your group. Here, you’ll find luxury in the middle of a National Forest. Join your group at the Bell for breakfast, or the Elk Lodge for snooker and cocktails. No matter how long you stay, you’ll have a hard time seeing it all. And best of all, we limit The Smith Fork Ranch to one group at a time for your privacy and customization.
Fish, hike, ride, indulge, repeat
Teach your kids to fly fish on our ponds - or bring your angler crew to hit miles of private Smith Fork River. Explore mountain hiking trails, or gravel bike trails and fire roads without end. Cleanse your body and spirit in our spring-fed swimming pond. Our guides stand ready to lead you through on and off-ranch experiences - or explore on your own. And don’t forget, the North Fork valley is known for wellness, so treat yourself to a massage with the river sounds soothing you into relaxation.
Friends, family, team, wedding
…or just privacy
To ensure privacy and customization, The Smith Fork Ranch is exclusively available on a full-buyout basis. We’d love to open the historic Elk Lodge, Outdoor Pavilion, Dinner Bell, and magical outdoor gathering spaces - from aspen groves to riverside picnic patios - to your special occasion.
