The comforts of a fine home,set in wilderness.
Two buildings stand on the mountain. One keeps you warm and private. The other keeps the stories. Both are furnished in antiques a century old and more.
A ranch at this altitude usually asks you to give something up. Sweetwater asks for nothing. The power is your own, the water is your own, the line to the outside world is quiet and constant — and the rooms feel like a place you would not want to leave.
The Main Cabin
Inside the Main Cabin you find the comforts of a fine home, carried up to a place most fine homes never reach. It is warm. It is private. It is finished with a care that does not announce itself — down to the refined details, a bidet among them, that a discerning owner notices and the rest simply enjoy.
A home theater anchors the evenings, an extra-large screen for films and television when the weather draws everyone indoors and the mountains turn to silhouette. The furnishings are genuine antiques, a hundred years old and more — not reproductions, not a decorator’s idea of frontier, but the real thing, gathered and kept.
The Whiskey RidgeSaloon & Boarding House
Whiskey Ridge is the bunkhouse, and it carries its own name for a reason. Built and dressed in the character of a frontier saloon and boarding house, it sleeps ten and holds the kind of evening that a single cabin cannot — a long table, a few stories, the sense of a place with a past.
Like the cabin, it is furnished in century-old antiques rather than reproductions. The room does not perform its history; it has one. Whiskey Ridge stands as its own heritage mark within Sweetwater — a building that earns a name, and keeps it.
Off the grid. On the world.
Both buildings run entirely off-grid — solar power, a private well, on-site septic — so the mountain owes nothing to a utility line. And yet Starlink keeps the property connected at speed, which means seclusion without sacrifice: a place far enough away to feel like another century, close enough to run a life from.
Together the two buildings sleep fourteen — room enough for family, for guests, or for a private gathering held where almost no one can find you. Sweetwater Ranch is offered by owner at $2,600,000.
How many people does Sweetwater Ranch sleep?
Fourteen across two buildings. The Main Cabin sleeps four; the Whiskey Ridge Saloon & Boarding House sleeps ten. Together they suit a family, a few guests, or a private gathering.
What is the Whiskey Ridge Saloon & Boarding House?
It is the ranch’s bunkhouse, sleeping ten, built and furnished with the character of a frontier saloon and boarding house. Whiskey Ridge is its own heritage sub-brand within Sweetwater Ranch.
Is the cabin modern inside?
Yes. The Main Cabin holds the comforts of a fine home in a wilderness setting — a home theater with an extra-large screen, refined finishes including a bidet — while staying warm and private. Both buildings are furnished in genuine century-old antiques, not reproductions.
Are the lodgings off-grid?
Everything runs off-grid on solar, a private well, and on-site septic, yet stays connected via Starlink. Self-sufficient, never out of reach.

The lodgings are best understood in person, by appointment. If Sweetwater is the kind of place you have been waiting for, you are welcome to inquire.
