About Orchard
Orchard is a quiet rural spot in Morgan County, sitting just north of the South Platte River along Highway 144. It originally grew up as a small railroad stop named after a nearby grove of cottonwoods, and history buffs might recognize it as a filming backdrop for the 1970s miniseries Centennial. Today, it offers peaceful country living with wide-open space, while still keeping you within a short drive of everyday essentials, shops, and restaurants in nearby Fort Morgan.
