Elktrout Lodge on the Colorado River
Kremmling, Colorado
A Legacy Sporting Property in the Heart of the Rockies
Recognized by Orvis as Fly-Fishing Lodge of the Year (1999), Elktrout Lodge is one of the most iconic sporting properties in North America. Nestled on 100 deeded acres with valuable water rights, the property offers exclusive access to over half a mile of both banks of the legendary Colorado River - a rare stretch of private water renowned for world-class trout fishing.
Elktrout seamlessly blends recreation, luxury lodging, hunting, and income potential. Its strategic location-less than two hours from Denver and within an hour of seven premier ski resorts-makes it ideal for year-round use, guest engagement, and operational flexibility.
From an investment standpoint, Elktrout operates both as a hospitality rental and outfitting business, while also holding long-term appreciation value as a land asset with scarce river frontage.
Property Highlights:
* 14-guest main lodge + four cabins
* Main house + fly shop/office
* Large equipment/toy barn
* Professional-grade gun range
* Additional operational structures for lodging and recreation
These improvements support a wide range of uses: turnkey lodge operation, Airbnb/VRBO rentals, private fishing club, corporate retreat center, or destination wedding venue.
Elktrout Lodge is more than a property-it's a Colorado legacy.
