K3 Guest Ranch Bed & Breakfast has been a small cattle ranch for over 18 years but we sold all our cattle a few years ago. Being a small ranch, horses are not a necessity. Stormy and Zip are our two trick horses that perform tricks for our guests. Along with their mother, Shelly, they have become family and add to the fun on the ranch. Both horses shake hands, lie down, play dead and sit up like a dog. They think they are humans and mix with our guests like real stars! Today the K3 raises about 45-50 ton of good quality horse hay, more than enough to feed our three horses so we sell the rest of the hay to friends and neighbors. K3 Guest Ranch was started as a hobby by Jerry Kinkade in 1980 but now it has become a fun Bed & Breakfast to entertain guests from all over the world. There's plenty to do at the K3. There are miles of hiking, mountain bike or ATV trails nearby to explore, or wet your line for native Cutthroat, Rainbow and Brown trout. If you bring your own horses, we have clean corrals, good water and plenty of fresh feed.

REFURBISHED 1870s SHEEPHERDER WAGON - New in 2008, the K3 Guest Ranch Bed & Breakfast will offer guests a new and unique accommodation. Tell your friends and neighbors back home that you slept in a real, western Sheepherder Wagon, just like the days of old! That's right, the K3 Guest Ranch Bed & Breakfast presents its new Sheepherder Wagon accommodation. The wagon will accommodate two guests and will have hot and cold running water (unlike the old sheep herders who had to carry cold water to their wagons to use for washing and cooking!). The interior of the wagon has been kept as close as possible to the original design of the 19th century Sheepherder Wagon but with some improvements for our 21st century travellers. New restroom and shower facilities are just a few feet away for the exclusive use by our Sheepherder Wagon guests. This is one chance in a lifetime to enjoy something very special, a chance to sleep in a real honest to goodness sheep wagon from the l897 era. You will love it!
