About this property

Cowboy School House Cabin at the High Plains Drift Inn

Taste the 1800s in our western style School House at the High Plains Drift Inn. Cowboy bunk-house style sleeping arrangement with 3 bunk beds. Also, an inviting kitchenette facility and spacious shower as well as solar lighting, USB charging ports, and a propane heater. Do the planet a favor and stay at our environmentally friendly, off grid solar powered, largely self sustaining ranch.

Ranch Café on site serving hearty homestyle cowboy cooking, by reservation only.
Horse riding available by appointment (age and weight limit).

Does not have electrical plug ins.

Kindly check in between 3 and 8pm, no later.

Stay at an old fashioned cowboy guest ranch amid the Colorado Rockies. Help gather the eggs or watch the herd of horses gallop in from the range. Be aware they may come and beg for watermelon or black licorice! Hang out and read a book or ask for directions to a nearby ghost town. The ranch is located near dozens of neat places making it a perfect home base to plan trips out of.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Host profile image
I am RV Robertson the head of this gang of Cowboys and desperadoes. I am 73 years old, but mentally I don't think I ever got past 17! I have made my living almost my entire life (except for a time in the military) enjoying people. I have been a fishing and photography guide in the great outdoors and I have raised cattle and trained horses. Throughout my life I have enjoyed being a part of people's vacations and making them feel at home even when away from home.

Over three decades ago I began building the High Plains Drift Inn. My family now share my passion for hospitality and we work together to make sure our guests have a good time and get to feel a little of what it was like in the old west.

You can simply book a cabin with us for a peaceful nights rest on your way through or you can arrange to have full service. Having lived so long I have a story or two for just about everything. If you have the time we can build a fire outside and I can tell you cowboy stories half the night while you roast some marshmallows and listen to my granddaughter play old cowboy songs on the guitar!

When you book please let us know if you are interested in any additional services. We can provide horse riding, skeet shooting, survival classes and our on site Ranch Café serves hearty homestyle cowboy cooking, by reservation.
