The North Creek Ranch Experience

North Creek Ranch is rooted in the heart of the Nebraska Sandhills along the Dismal River with a rich history and picturesque views. In the 1870s, Buffalo Bill Cody and Frank North ran 17,000 head of cattle on the land that we now call home.

With over 40,000 acres, this fifth-generation ranch has been in operation since the early 1900s. It is home to an abundance of wildlife, including mule deer, whitetail deer, turkey, upland game birds, coyotes, bobcats, bald and golden eagles and elk.
