Chisholm Fork was built totally by Ron and Linda Beaumont.
The first building was erected in May of 2000. Originally
conceived as a backdrop for photographs, the little town now
hosts five shops, nine guest rooms, and several offices for
Beaumont Ranch. The little town is the perfect backdrop for
living history events, gun fights, horse back rides, and
special meals. The Shops at Beaumont Ranch are an important
part of the atmosphere of the small village.
 The Shops at Chisholm Fork
Chisholm Fork echoes with the quiet peace that we imagine for
our ancestors during the 1890’s. There are days during a cattle
drive or during the Seventh Texas Cavalry Reenactments that the
town bustles. This is as it would have been in 1890 Texas. When
special events hit a small town, the town would transform to a
different entity. This is our job at Beaumont Ranch. You tell us
what part of the Old West you want to experience and we will do
our best to make it happen. Our shops are a major part of the
atmosphere. Hours vary by shop keeper and event schedule.
Chisholm Fork Cowboy Chapel
This small church grew from the need for an unpretentious
gathering of Christians on Beaumont Ranch.
This is a place where no fingers are pointed in judgment.
This is a place where no one should buy a new outfit to attend.
This is a place for honestly caring about the person next to
you.
This is a place for solace.
This is a place to rejuvenate.
This is a place to rejoice in the Lord and his works.
This is a place to start each week.
Ron and Linda Beaumont provided the land and the small building
to begin Church services on the ranch. The little chapel seats
forty and is simple in decor and structure. John Moore is the
Cowboy chaplain. He brings fifty plus years of service to the
small gathering. He was part of the Billy Graham organization for part
of his career. He and his wife have worked as missionaries
overseas . Services are relaxed. A short time at each service is
dedicated to a children’s service.
