Rogue River Ranch Rogue River Ranch Rogue River Ranch is on the National Register of Historic Places and is nestled in the heart of the Rogue River's wild section. Once a major Rogue River Indian habitation site, the area has enjoyed a rich human history of over 8,000 years. The ranch structures remaining today represent the center of the old Marial community. During the gold mining days, the early 1900s', the ranch had a trading post with upstairs lodging, a blacksmith's shop, and numerous outbuildings that filled the early Euro-American residents' social and commercial needs.
