While we consider this lodge a masterpiece, it was never meant to compete with the land—it was designed to honor it.
From the very beginning, every decision was intentional. We wanted to create a space that reflects the grandeur and unmatched beauty of this place… while recognizing that the land itself will always be the true showstopper. The lodge is simply a bonus.
Many of the materials used here were sourced directly from the ranch. The grand chimneys and fireplaces are built from native dolomite stone, found in abundance on the property—a sedimentary rock formed over millions of years from ancient marine deposits, giving it both strength and a quiet, timeless character that felt right at home here.
The mantels are crafted from mesquite—century-old trees that once grew on this land—each one carrying its own history, now preserved in a new way. Throughout the lodge, you’ll find authentic cedar posts and beams harvested from the ranch, grounding the entire structure in something real and rooted.
We believe deeply in reuse and storytelling. Many of the furnishings are antique—pieces that have lived full lives before arriving here. Nothing feels overly manufactured; everything has a past.
Layered into the design are authentic Native American rugs, textiles, and artifacts—placed with respect to the tribes who lived on this land long before us. Alongside them, you’ll find African furnishings and artifacts that pay tribute to the 20+ African species that now roam the ranch.
The goal was to create something elevated, even extravagant—but never intimidating. A place that feels just as comfortable as it is striking. A lodge that welcomes both men and women, and redefines what a hunting lodge can be.
This wasn’t rushed. It was built slowly, thoughtfully, and with a deep respect for the land, the history, and the experience we wanted to create.
