Ovenell's Heritage Inn Log Cabins, Guesthouses & Historic Ranch

Luxury in the Country​​

Years of conservation practices has made our ranch a haven for an abundance of wildlife including deer, elk, bear, cougar, coyotes, raccoons, beaver, bobcats, eagles and an extensive list of birds.

The deer frequent the lawns at the cabins and elk can be seen in the woodlands and pastures. Many of the other wildlife can be spotted during a walk but are much more elusive. Bear and cougar may leave behind signs that they have been around but are rarely seen.
