More on Falls Creek Ranch in Durango Colorado

alls Creek Ranch (FCR) is a distinctive 940-acre community nestled in a serene, hidden valley northwest of Durango, almost entirely surrounded by the San Juan National Forest. Offering breathtaking views of the Animas Valley and the Red Cliffs, FCR has embodied the vision of “living naturally with nature” since its founding in the 1970s.

What makes FCR stand out is its unique structure. Each member owns a one-acre parcel of land, while the remaining 840 acres are designated as common property. This shared land fosters a harmonious, natural environment for members to enjoy in various ways. The Ranch is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors and supported by several committees responsible for overseeing its operations. Operating like a small village, FCR has its own water supply and distribution system, along with miles of roads that are maintained by the community’s own equipment. Many members contribute their time and skills to serve on committees and help with Ranch projects, fostering a strong sense of community and collaboration.
