A few minutes from Crested Butte lies Buckhorn Ranch—a mountain paradise with a twist. This isn’t just any neighborhood; it’s a haven for outdoor lovers, adventure seekers, and even pilots! With Whetstone Mountain towering over the horizon and the scenic backside of Crested Butte and Paradise Divide in view, every direction offers a postcard-worthy scene. Whether you’re into hiking, biking, fishing, or skiing, Buckhorn Ranch puts world-class recreation right outside your door.
One of the most unique features of Buckhorn Ranch is its private 4,400-foot-long airstrip, making it a dream come true for aviation enthusiasts. The Avion Club, a collection of homes surrounding the landing strip, allows for true fly-in/fly-out access—so you can land your plane and be on the slopes or casting a line in just minutes. If you prefer keeping your feet on the ground, you’ll still love the easy access to Crested Butte’s legendary trail system, including local favorites like Strand Hill and Whetstone Vista.
Beyond its aviation perks, Buckhorn Ranch is a community built for those who appreciate a balance of luxury and nature. Buckhorn Ranch is made of stand alone homes, townhomes/condos, vacant parcels including airstrip lots, all set against a backdrop of wide-open spaces and stunning mountain views. With two lakes, a tennis court, and recently upgraded streetscapes, this community blends natural beauty with modern conveniences—an ideal place to call home, whether full-time or as a mountain retreat.
And let’s not forget the location—just minutes from Crested Butte Country Club and the world-class slopes of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. Whether you’re soaring above the Rockies or carving through fresh powder, Buckhorn Ranch offers an unmatched lifestyle in one of Colorado’s most beautiful settings. So, if you’ve ever dreamed of a home where adventure begins at your doorstep (or your private runway), Buckhorn Ranch might just be the perfect place to land!
