About Us
Hayden Outdoors is a grass roots
real estate company and brokerage with a background in the cattle and ranching business. In 1976 Leo Hayden founded the company as Property Exchange, working with
farms and ranches for sale near Hays, Kansas. The brokerage moved to Goodland, Kansas in 1981 and became Hayden Inc. In the late 1990’s, Leo was joined by his two sons,
Dax and Seth. In 2003, Hayden Inc. became the first brokerage outside of Nebraska to be affiliated with a new real estate program offered by
Cabela’s, the world’s foremost outfitter of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear. WIth the Cabela's affiliation, Hayden Inc. became
Hayden Outdoors and a successful company listing and selling premiere
recreational real estate was born. At that time Hayden Outdoors expanded its offerings of ranches and farm properties for sale to include
recreational real estate. Since that time,
Hayden Outdoors has gone from 3 brokers to over 35 brokers.
Hayden Outdoors is proud to be participants with Cabela’s Trophy Properties in Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Wyoming, and Utah and a licensed brokerage in Idaho.
Cabelas Trophy Properties provides Hayden Outdoors with a network of more than 275 brokers internationally, providing a wealth of relationships and experience in the

Our Philosophy
Hayden Outdoors is built on the relationships between our clients and our brokers, as well as an in-depth knowledge of the recreational real estate market. Our brokers are passionate about the outdoors and are proud to work and play in the outdoor setting we all love so much. Our buyers and sellers know that the fine recreational properties we represent are the kind of properties we would call our own. Whether it's claiming that prized elk in Colorado, hearing the rise of that rooster pheasant in Kansas, or relaxing by a pristine mountain stream in Wyoming, this real estate is different! Outdoor recreation is deep in our hearts and minds, and it is what drives all of us at Hayden Outdoors. We are truly blessed to work with the sellers and buyers of the fine ranches, land, and farm properties that we have the opportunity to sell, because it is the people that make those places special.
Hayden Outdoors currently has an inventory of
farm and ranch real estate worth over $500 million! With growing global demand for food and energy, farm and ranch land is in high demand across the U.S. real estate market. Additionally, we see an increasing demand for
recreational real estate as more and more affluent buyers are looking for that special property to call their own. Recreational real estate often provides privacy, opportunities for a wide array of outdoor activities, and beautiful vistas. Hayden Outdoors is proud to represent buyers and sellers of the finest
land, ranches, and farm properties for sale.
Hayden Outdoors team members continue their education through classes, workshops and
Realtors Land Institute classes and certification of our brokers to be
Accredited Land Consultants.
