Specialties
Come and share life on a century old, working cattle ranch. Far from the beaten path, Aspen Ridge is nestled in a hidden valley in the mountains of south-central Oregon.
Live a cowboy's life on a 14,000 acre spread in the middle of nowhere. Indulge yourself in recreation or relaxation. Ride horseback with the ranch crew to check the cattle. Wet a line in a mountain lake. Meander through a meadow full of wildflowers. Just be still and soak in the calm, peaceful beauty. In the restaurant, enjoy traditional western fare prepared with care and pride, and cooked by "the boss" himself. At day's end, settle back in the comfortable elegance of your own log cabin or lodge room. After a brilliant sunset, beneath a canopy of stars, listen to the coyotes' serenade. In the morning, the warbling call of sandhill cranes will be your alarm clock.
History
Established in 1992.
In 1989, after years of entertaining friends and family in our primitive accommodations, we began construction of Aspen Ridge Resort. To be sure, it was a crazy, far-fetched idea. "You're doing what, where?" was the incredulous response of more than one person who heard of our plans. But the dream took shape and the cabins, lodge, and all supporting systems were completed and open for business in January, 1992.
The years, and thousands of guests, have proven what we felt the day of our first visit. There is magic in this place. In the eighteen miles between the highway and the ranch, the rest of the world slips away. We invite you to come share our home. This may be the place you've been dreaming of too.
