Cloudcroft, New Mexico | 2,305 A± Deeded Acres | 10,019 A± State Lease Acres A Legacy of the Old West, Reimagined for Today Just 45 minutes from the mountain town of Cloudcroft, New Mexico, the historic Circle Cross Ranch represents one of the Southwest's most remarkable legacy properties. Spanning 2,305 A± deeded acres and complemented by a 10,019 A± acre New Mexico State Grazing Lease, this expansive holding is bordered on three sides by the Lincoln National Forest. Once owned by the legendary Oliver Lee, the ranch combines unmatched natural beauty, deep historical roots, and exceptional income potential. Premier Elk Hunting in the Sacramento Mountains Located in Game Management Unit 34, the Circle Cross Ranch is celebrated for its world-class elk hunting. The property consistently produces and sells 18 elk authorizations annually, establishing a reliable source of income and cementing its reputation as a premier hunting destination. Beyond trophy elk, the ranch's diverse habitat supports thriving populations of mule deer, black bear, mountain lion, coyote, turkey, and waterfowl—offering endless outdoor and recreational opportunities. Historic Homes & Ranch Headquarters The ranch's accommodations are as impressive as its landscape. The beautifully restored Oliver Lee Historic Home serves as the centerpiece—featuring 10 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, blending 19th-century charm with modern comfort.
