Cherokee Ranch, Historic ranch in Douglas County, US.
Cherokee Ranch occupies 3,280 acres of land with 19 buildings, five structures, and a main residence designed in the style of a Scottish castle.
The ranch began in 1868 when John E. Blunt, a Union soldier from Maine, established the first settlement along East Plum Creek with apple trees.
The property maintains a collection of Santa Gertrudis cattle and continues the ranching traditions established in the nineteenth century Colorado.
The National Register of Historic Places property extends north of U.S. Route 85 and south of Daniels Park Road, offering public tours and events.
The castle residence, built between 1926 and 1928, incorporates architectural elements from fifteenth century Scottish fortifications in its design.
