Monte Carlo Ranch is a settlement in Nyeri County in Kenya. It is named after the Monte Carlo Ranch House, which was built here in 1937 by William D. Campbell.^[1]

Another ranch house originally called Steep was built two years earlier by the couple Mickey and Dot Lyons, at 2 miles distance on the slopes of a hill called Ol Dionyo Larash. Steep was converted into a lodge in 1967, it is currently called the Aberdare Country Club.^[2] Both houses face Mount Kenya with the Aberdare Forest, which is part of Aberdare National Park, behind them.
