About this property

Cozy Getaway in Afton, MN 11 minutes from Afton Alps

Welcome to The Ranch!
Escape to the serene countryside of Afton, Minnesota, nestled on the side of Mt. Hope on a 17-acre property in the St. Croix River Valley. Whether you are looking for a couple’s escape, a family getaway, or a girls' weekend, you will have plenty of room to relax and unwind.

~Seasonal Activities~

Spring/Summer: Walk/Hike/Bike in nearby state parks and trails. Take a riverboat ride or see glacial potholes in Taylors Falls. Visit local wineries and restaurants as well as shopping centers in Woodbury, Stillwater, and Hudson.

Fall/Winter: Fall colors are amazing in the St. Croix River Valley. Enjoy a bonfire or take a walk/hike. In the winter, you can visit Afton Alps (6.2mi), Trollhaugen (39mi), and Wild Mountain (48 mi) for skiing/snowboarding/tubing. The Ranch is equipped with many indoor options as well! Shoot pool, play darts and board games, watch a movie, or just kick and relax with your friends or family.

~Nearby~

2 minutes away from St. Croix River and Selma’s Ice cream Parlor and other downtown Afton restaurants

Afton Alps: 6.2mi (11 min)
Downtown Stillwater 12mi (19 min)
MSP INT Airport: 25.1mi (32min)

~Helpful Information~

Arrival: House is located around a bend with many trees. It can come up quickly so keep an eye out for it. There is a long driveway to parking spots. When exiting, it can be helpful to roll down the driver's side window to listen for any cars that might be coming as visibility to the left is low.

Designed to accommodate up to 10 guests, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath is ideal for family getaways, retreats, or country escapes. Children are warmly welcomed, and the property is well-suited for hosting events.

We hope that you enjoy our Ranch Home as much as we have over the last 38 years!
Blessings,
Sean and Laurie

Peaceful and relaxing

House was spacious. Rooms were well kept and cleaned. Family room has a pool table which is a plus. Patios are perched high up. There's a washer and dryer, albeit older models, but functioning. Spacious kitchen and dining area. Would definitely stay there again.
