Ross Creek Ranch is an exceptionally rare High Sierra recreational property, with a spectacular income-producing apple orchard. Setting at an elevation of 4400 feet, and surrounded by National Forest, this very private ranch is a beautiful 4 season California retreat property. The numerous, and tastefully constructed homes and improvements would make for an excellent corporate retreat or family compound.
There are six homes on the property. The main lodge is 5000 sq./ft with an open beam concept, 2 beds, 2 baths, and 2 half baths. The home features a huge great room with a magnificent double-sided, floor to ceiling stone fireplace, reading loft, attached deck, and fenced in yard. Additionally, the ranch features 4 other homes in excellent condition, ranging in size from 2100 sq./ft to 1060 sq./ft as well as 3 bunkhouses, with an outdoor bathhouse and shower.
Unmatched by other mountain ranches, Ross Creek ranch has the added benefit of income from the 30-acre, numerous variety of CCOF certified organic apple orchard. The orchard is complete with all supporting buildings and 4000 sq./ft shops. Water is plentiful on the property, evidenced by the numerous springs, stocked ponds, year-round Ross Creek bisecting the ranch, and a large diameter AG well-producing 150GPM with 35,000 gal. storage. The recreational opportunities are endless. The four ponds fully stocked with Florida and Black Bass, Russian Sunfish, and Bluegill.
Adding to the recreational attributes of this exceptional property, the surrounding thousands upon thousands of acres of National Forest, gives the owner the unbridled privacy to hike, ATV, horseback ride, or fish until your heart’s content. For the equestrian, there are two horse barns. The main barn is 3200 square feet, complete with six stalls, an indoor wash rack, tack room, and hay storage. The second barn has 2, 25×40 foot stalls with an attached turn out paddock. Other equestrian amenities also include a 180×70 foot riding arena and a round pen.
