Hey There
Sunset Hills Bison Ranch® is a family-owned and operated ranch built on a shared love of agriculture, animals, and the land. Our ownership team brings together generations of farming experience, hands-on livestock care, business knowledge, and a passion for welcoming others to experience ranch life. Together, we are committed to raising healthy bison, caring responsibly for the land, producing quality ranch-raised products, and creating a place where families can slow down, reconnect, and experience something truly unique in rural Iowa.
Bethany serves as the primary public-facing voice of Sunset Hills, leading much of the ranch's guest communication, marketing, community outreach, and storytelling. Behind every interaction, however, is a team of owners who each play an important role in the care, operation, and continued growth of the ranch.

What started as a vision has grown into a working bison ranch, lodging destination, and agritourism experience—and we are proud to continue building it together.
All About Us
Or mission is simple: We aim to raise healthy bison with respect for the animals, the land, and the role bison hold in American history. As a family-owned and operated ranch, we are committed to responsible stewardship, quality ranch-raised products, and creating meaningful opportunities for guests to experience agriculture, learn about bison, and reconnect with the land. We strive to honor what God has entrusted to us while caring for our herd with purpose and integrity.
Our Vison is Clear: Help strengthen the future of the American bison while creating a ranch where agriculture, conservation, education, and hospitality come together. We hope to inspire future generations to appreciate the American bison, understand the importance of responsible land and livestock stewardship, and experience the value of life connected to agriculture.
