In the heart of the White River National Forest and
adjacent to the Flat Tops Wilderness

Well, this is where it all happens! With mountains rising above 12,000’, covered with evergreens, aspen and lush open parks, the White River Area is considered as the most beautiful as well as the best of all hunting. We have twice as many elk as any other area in Colorado, and Colorado has more elk than any other state or country in the world.

The White River National Forest is one of the largest national forests in America with hundreds of miles of trails for horseback riding, hiking, fishing and hunting. We truly have it all!

Several years ago I bought Ripple Creek. It is deep in the heart of the White River National Forest of Northwest Colorado, adjacent to the famous Flat Tops Wilderness. It is 40 miles east of Meeker and 200 miles west of Denver.  For hunters, it is in Area 24.

Ripple Creek Lodge

The lodge is surrounded by eight modernized rustic, but comfortable, log cabins. All are complete with furnished kitchens, bathrooms with showers and heating.  Propane is used with a generator for lighting, cooking and heating and other early and late necessities and conveniences. 

We serve great meals at the lodge but it’s your choice to eat with us or do your own cooking.

To view all of the cabins, click on the picture.

Recreation includes horseback riding, hiking, photography, nature study, fishing and hunting. Wild flowers blanket the mountain sides and early risers will have the opportunity to see deer and elk along with many species of birds and smaller animals.  In all ways, this forest is beautiful, bountiful and productive.

You can do as much or as little as you please in an unregimented form of vacation. It’s here for you and I hope you will join us.

Yours for a great outdoors experience,
