Situated in the heart of historic outlaw country and stomping grounds of Sheriff Pat Garrett, the notorious Lincoln County Wars and the legendary Billy the Kid, Felix River Ranch offers guests an opportunity to explore this fascinating heritage and relive the events of the Old West. The Dolan house, owned by Jim Dolan, the man almost single-handedly responsible for the famed Lincoln County Wars, is located on the grounds of Felix Canyon Ranch! Indeed, the entire surrounding area is steeped in Wild West history.
The story of the Lincoln County Wars and Billy the Kid has all of the elements that made the West wild. The story starts with a group of ex-army men from the bloody Civil War who were running the town with monopolistic zeal. The prize was not only the profitable main store, but also lucrative government cattle contracts.
