The Ranch House
Step inside The Ranch House and explore its rooms through a photo walkthrough, from the entrance and sitting room to the living room, dining room, kitchen, and family room. Along the way, you’ll see warm wood paneling, patterned wallpaper, Western artwork, comfortable seating, and the details that give the house its character. Each section offers different views of the room, helping you picture how the spaces connect and get a feel for the house before visiting in person.
The Virden family built the Ranch House in 1878 when they homesteaded on Swauk Creek. Read the ranch's history.
