Description

Set deep in the wild red rock canyons of western Colorado, Sinbad Ranch offers 2,000 acres of premier big-game habitat and storied frontier history. Located in the iconic Sinbad Valley and bordered by the towering cliffs of Sewemup Mesa, this legacy property delivers world-class trophy mule deer and elk hunting in a setting that echoes with the spirit of the Old West. Positioned along the Montrose–Mesa County line and bordering Utah, Sinbad Ranch offers unmatched seclusion with excellent access—just 75 miles from Grand Junction and 100 miles from Montrose Regional Airport. The ranch also borders the Manti-La Sal National Forest, opening the gates to thousands of acres of public land for horseback riding, hunting, and outdoor exploration. With three natural springs, a private lake, and the only year-round water in the Sinbad Valley, this land draws and holds big game like few others. Rugged mesas, timbered draws, irrigated fields, and sagebrush flats create ideal habitat for mature bulls and bucks—making Sinbad a destination for serious sportsmen seeking unforgettable hunts and trophy-caliber game. Adding to its mystique is a rich Western past. Once a stagecoach stop and hideout for outlaws like the McCarty Gang, the ranch holds deep historical roots that add meaning to every canyon and trail. The land tells stories—of survival, freedom, and wild possibility. Two well-kept residences provide year-round comfort and lodging. The Main House features three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main floor, with a spacious living area overlooking the irrigated alfalfa field where elk and deer often graze. A finished basement offers extra sleeping quarters and a full bath, ideal for guests or hunting crews. A separate Caretaker’s Home adds flexibility for staff or extended stays. Sinbad Ranch supports a 100-head cattle operation with a 54-acre pivot-irrigated alfalfa field and strong grazing rights. Infrastructure includes perimeter and cross fencing, ranch roads, livestock facilities, storage buildings, and all equipment—making the ranch fully turnkey from day one. Owned and preserved by the same family for over 40 years, Sinbad Ranch is a rare offering that blends top-tier hunting, authentic Western history, and lasting investment value. It’s not just a ranch—it’s a chance to own a living legend.

Situated within Game Management Unit (GMU) 60, the ranch offers exceptional opportunities for pursuing trophy-class mule deer and elk. The diverse terrain—comprising mesas, canyons, and irrigated fields—provides ideal habitats for these species. Mule deer are abundant, particularly during the later rifle seasons, when they migrate into the Sinbad and Paradox Valleys. Elk populations are robust, with higher success rates observed in the later seasons, especially in remote areas away from roads.
