Peaceful Valley Ranch, about three miles from the town of Medora, North Dakota, dates from 1885, when Benjamin Lamb, "a 22-year-old white male rancher from Ohio" bought the land and built its first buildings.[2] The ranch includes Late Victorian architecture and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. The listing included three contributing buildings.[1]
It overlooks the Little Missouri River in what is now the south unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park, in "the Little Missouri badlands of western North Dakota."[2]
The listing includes a barn that was built by George Burgess and J.C. Rasmussen in 1905.[2]
