History
The Ranch's colorful history dates back more than one hundred years to February 22, 1884, as the Marion Land Claim.

Joseph H. Marion, the young scout dispatched for help, was the only member of General Custer's expedition who survived the "Last Stand" at the Little Bighorn. In 1881, he married Philena Scott, a relative of General Winfield Scott, and they headed west to Leadville, Colorado. After escaping a gold mine cave-in, Joseph homesteaded this 160 acre spread, receiving the land deed on August 24, 1891.

In 1907, Uncle Joe and Aunt Philena (as their neighbors affectionately called them) moved with their three children, Percy, Clara and Ethel, from the claim shanty into the splendid brick structure that they had built over 16 years. When Joseph passed away in 1927, Philena continued to be active in community endeavors, and Percy took over working the land until 1940.

The Marion homestead now enjoys a life of recreation and hospitality as The Ranch Country Club. Member-owned since 1991, the air of western nostalgia is retained at The Ranch, as we move forward with exceptional golf, swimming, tennis and dining facilities for our members and guests. We have an acclaimed Dick Phelps designed 18-hole golf course, two adult and children's swimming pools, eight outdoor and indoor tennis courts, and extensive indoor and outdoor banquet facilities accommodating as many as 275 people.

The charm and magnetism of The Ranch continues to reflect the pioneers who left their mark from the past. Thank you for joining us and partaking in the history that is The Ranch.
