The Cherokee Ranch and Castle is a stunning venue located outside Sedalia CO in Douglas County. Its’ unique architecture combines aspects of the Western United States and a Scottish-style castle. The Castle is a museum that is home to historic collections of fine art, furnishings and memorabilia from around the world. Art lovers often visit to see original drawings by Sir Christopher Wren, the architect of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. The Castle's breathtaking views of the Rocky Mountains make it an unforgettable destination for events and cultural discovery. 

 

  

 

Cherokee Ranch & Castle includes land that originally belonged to two separate homesteads in the late 1890s: The Flower Homestead and the Blunt Homestead. The Johnson Family moved from the East and purchased the Flower homestead in 1924 and built the Scottish-style castle. They sold the property to Tweet Kimball in 1954. Tweet purchased adjacent land that had been the Blunt Homestead and renamed both pieces of land Cherokee Ranch, which today includes almost 3,200 acres of natural beauty and wildlife. In 1996, Tweet sold Cherokee Ranch in a conservation easement to Douglas County. The Foundation holds the deed to the land and the land is now protected as a wildlife sanctuary and serves as a cultural and educational center.
