At The Edge Of Solitude Where Stars Are Bright And The Air Is Fresh

Fortunately, some of the most beautiful places on earth can be experienced without the cost and responsibility of actually owning them. Red Canyon Ranch in the Black Hills is no exception. Situated high atop the Black Hills historic red-limestone and sandstone canyon, the location of the original route into the Hills for both Native Americans and the white settlers that followed, Red Canyon Ranch is a monument to the cowboy lifestyle, with elements of luxury and style that most cowboys have probably never seen. The cabin is a lodge-pole pine dwelling, in the tradition of an aged lodge. The cabin sits on 110 private acres and offers full views of Red Canyon from three sides, rustic floors and cabinetry with natural dry-stack, slate fireplace in the living room, and master bedroom, and sleeping accommodations for 6 people. An outdoor hot tub that nearly floats above the canyon’s edge makes soaking under the stars a life time memory.

On a clear day, Red Canyon offers extraordinary views to its east, where sheer red walls accentuate the awesome powers that went into its creation, as well as the intricacies of its meandering path. To the south, across the canyon, the dense clustering of centuries-old Ponderosa pine easily explains how the area came to be known as the “Black” Hills . To the west, the canyon continues with steep rock walls, dramatic outcroppings and a long distance view to Wyoming.

You'll Love Our Neighbors: Red Canyon is home to one of the most diverse wildlife populations in the Black Hills. Elk, Antelope, Mule Deer, Eagles, Mountain Lions, Bobcats and Turkeys.

Explore The Best Part Of The Black Hills: The southern Black Hills holds something for everyone and every taste. Nestled among the rolling hills are quaint towns offering shopping, dining, and tourist attractions that could easily fill your day with smiles. The area also hosts some of the country’s most beautiful parks and well-known monuments, all within a short and scenic drive from each other.

At the Founder's Cabin, you'll have thousands of acres to explore whether hiking or horseback riding across this historic property.

Red Canyon...amazing. This property sits directly on the rim!! It's so well appropriated! It IS very remote. Plan beautiful meals al fresco...the patio/outdoor kitchen is so much better than anywhere you'll eat in the Hills. The views are breathtaking and wild life incredible.

The cabin at the edge of solitude where the air is fresh and the stars are bright surpassed our wildest dreams. It was absolutely gorgeous! The gardens, the canyon, the hot tub, the wildlife, the beautiful artwork in the cabin, and so very comfortable and clean. The kitchen was outfitted with pretty much everything you need. Only thing to be aware of is that Custer and a grocery store is about 45 minutes away, but if you plan ahead it's not a problem.And our hosts were FABULOUS! Very responsive and helpful. Our vacation was a delight and wished we could have stayed longer.
