Staunton Ranch Rural Historic Landscape
Jefferson County
The 1918 Staunton Ranch is a good representation of an early twentieth century entertainment and recreation mountain resort with Rustic style cabins.
Character-defining features on the cabins include unpeeled, half-round, log siding, large stone chimneys, stone foundations, multi-paned windows and stone landscape features. Vertically oriented logs with diagonal patterns accent the cabins. In addition to hosting summer camps for various organizations including the Girl Scouts, the property contained a sawmill and logging operation, the only one of its kind in the area.
This site continues in Park County. This site is also listed in This Year in Grants.
