The Slow Water Ranch is renowned for its world-class waterfowl hunting. Situated in the heart of a major flyway, the natural sloughs, and river access attract huge numbers of ducks and geese throughout the season. Whether you’re hunting from one of the custom Kohler heated pit blinds on the slough or setting up near the riverbanks, the opportunities here are second to none. The South Platte River itself winds through the property, offering not only scenic beauty but also year-round water that sustains wildlife and enhances the property’s recreational value. Whitetail deer hunting on this ranch is equally impressive. The area is known for producing big- bodied, mature bucks, and the thick river bottom timber, tall grasses, and secluded agriculture fields create perfect conditions for holding and growing trophy-caliber whitetails. In addition to deer, the property supports a thriving turkey population, making it a true multi-species hunting destination. Whether you prefer spring gobblers or a full fall pursuit, the numbers here won’t disappoint. Coveys of Bob White Quail thrive in the lush river bottom, and are supported by the adjacent agriculture fields providing a unique opportunity seldom found in Colorado.
Recreational adventures are not just limited to the pursuit of game. The updated road system through the ranch provides the perfect opportunity to ATV, Horseback ride, or hike. Warm water fish can be found in sections of the slough and summer fishing in the South Platte River is sure to not disappoint.
