Wall Canyon Ranch

The setting. Road to Wall Canyon Ranch, Washoe County, Nevada.

The ranch itself is private property surrounded by public land. I think at one time the owners let people who were passing through stay there. There are detailed inscriptions from travelers on door frames and a guest book on the table still. It looks like some time has elapsed since it's been cleaned up.
It doesn't say no trespassing specifically but I don't know if visitors are welcome at present.
In the picture facing the building there are beautiful springs of fresh water that originate right behind me. I would have photographed them but they are obscured by vegetation.
Only reference I could find to Wall Canyon Ranch online is as follows;
[Homesteader John Perry built Wall Canyon Ranch in 1910. His wife gave birth to 11 children in this house. Tanner said that shortly after the 11th was born, papa Perry rode off and never returned.]
