Y Lazy S Ranch

On this 5,000 acre privately owned ranch,  with all the available feed for wildlife and as a direct result of our continuing efforts to improve wildlife habitat, there are abundant numbers of deer, elk, antelope and of course, eagles, hawks, owls, coyotes, fox etc. Hunting has become the lifeblood of the local landowners... After the disastrous agricultural experience of the 70's and the 80's, many ranchers and farmers saw an opportunity to supplement their income by offering a premier hunting experience to those that seek the excitement of the hunt.

This is a real "Hunter's and photographer's" paradise.

On the "Y LAZY S RANCH" we have been offering trespass only type of hunts with minimal other services offered. With the construction of numerous top quality log cabins and a club house that will offer comfort, entertainment and a gathering spot in front of the fire, along with the in-house laundry facilities, and use of the commercial type kitchen, and/or serving home cooked meals, we foresee that our guests will have an expanded experience coupled with the comfort of home. So, starting with the fall of 2008, make plans to book a log-cabin and request the "home cooked meal service". Of course, we are not an outfitter. We are the landowner, we do not offer the fully guided hunts,as those non-landowner outfitters who come and go, offer, but, we promise to assist you in any way we can on only our privately owned 5,000 acre ranch.

For the last 30 years, we chose not to advertise; not to seek the business of hunters for one season. We had fully booked seasons and offered the ultimate experience, and we had repeat customers who flocked the ranch year after year and have been fully satisfied. Some of our repeat customers have hunted on this ranch for the last thirty years and have been fully satisfied and totally successful.  But now, we are expanding our horizons and by offering more services and a retreat type of atmosphere, we hope to have new experiences with others also.  And if your preference is camping, please, let us know. We will direct you to a choice spot on the ranch, where you may camp away from the rest of the hunters and truly enjoy the beautiful western atmosphere.

And of course, while camping you can enjoy a real campfire.........
