The main house is a one-and-a-half-story 50 by 50 feet (15 m × 15 m) house, built upon a raised, poured concrete basement, and is surrounded by a wood-frame veranda. It has a hipped roof broken by two dormers on each side and by four chimneys. The main floor, which has a board-and-batten exterior, served as living quarters. The basement level, which is at grade on three sides, has two kitchens, a mess hall, and an office, and served as the ranch headquarters for Lee.[2]

Also on the property are a historic 50 by 140 feet (15 m × 43 m) wooden barn, a log barn, and a blacksmith shop. The log barn, built in 1905, served at first as the residence for the Lee family.[2]
