About the host
Hosted by Dena
This is a sixth generation owned property, which has been in the family since 1911 when the Fountain family first purchased the property. The Fountain family worked the ranch by cattle year round. It was a working ranch and is still today.
Why they chose this property
This area was chosen by the Fountains in 1911, who migrated to this area from the San Francisco area in the 18th century.
What makes this property unique
This unique and historic property is unlike any other property in the area for hundreds of miles. You can enjoy the cool evenings along the river and warm days at the ranch while sitting beside the infinity pool and hot tub while gazing at the winding Trinity River. This property also includes access to the river.
