Kelly and I are excited to announce that we are the new owners of Coulter lake guest ranch in rifle Colorado. This doubles our hunting area and gives us a ton of summer activities. We will also operate in the winter with snowmobiling.

Congratulations Forest!
I've never been to Colorado, and my wife has never been to the U.S.
This gives me an incentive for a trip to visit there before we get too old.

Congrats Forrest & Kelly! I have stayed there many times over the years. It is a beautiful, great place to stay, relax, fantastic fishing and functions facility. So glad to see this lease picked up by a reputable outfitter. We usually camp a couple miles up the road and if we get drawn we will stop in and stay.

Coulter Lake Guest Ranch. Nestled in a beautiful valley on a pristine mountain lake in western Colorado, Coulter Lake is located three miles into the White River National Forest (WRNF) and is surrounded by incredible natural beauty and abundant wildlife. The WRNF encompasses over 2 million acres, bordered to the north by the Flattops Wilderness area and to the west by the Piceance Creek area.This popular guest ranch consists of 6 guest cabins, a main lodge, commercial kitchen, gift store, caretaker?s cabin and barn with tack room. Each guest cabin is spread spaciously among the aspen trees with lake views and is an easy walk to the lodge. The cabins have 1 to 3 bedrooms, a sitting area, private bathroom with shower, and a front porch with incredible views and privacy. The lodge itself has a large dining room, common area around the fireplace, office, and chef?s apartment. Perhaps one of the most unique aspects of this ranch is its Off the Grid ?green? energy production. Coulter Lake uses solar panels and hydropower to generate most of the electricity.
