FULL DESCRIPTION OF LISTING
We are located at the confluence of the Taylor River and Spring Creek. Both of these rivers flow toward the small town of Almont and meet the East River to form the headwaters of the mighty Gunnison River. Our fishing is fantastic! The beauty of our setting and location provides endless opportunities for outdoor recreation. This website contains just some of Harmel's information and exciting details for your "most unique" family dude ranch vacation ever. There is no other ranch that offers the flexibility and variety of activities for the whole family. Horseback riding, white water rafting, gold medal fishing (river & pond), fine dining & saloon, rock climbing, fly fishing lessons and guides, spa, pool, massage, hiking and biking. We're also pet friendly!
