Notorious Vegas brothel – The Love Ranch – hits the market for $1.2M

The infamous Love Ranch, a Nevada brothel where former NBA star and Khloe Kardashian’s then-husband Lamar Odom overdosed in 2015, is up for sale for $1.2million. 

Located just 80 miles outside of Las Vegas, the single-story, 15-room property looks nothing like the scandalous stories that have spilled out of the front door – perhaps the only thing giving away the brothel’s true secrets is the half-naked statue of a woman wearing red lingerie situated in front of the red building on the property. 

Before becoming a famed brothel known for its ‘Viagra Parties,’ the Love Ranch was known by a few different names – such as the Nevada Sun Rancho and the Las Vegas Sun Club – before becoming a nudist ranch for 18 years from 1989 to 2007.

It’s colorful owner, Dennis Hof, bought the brothel and 2010 and ran it until his death in 2018, where he was found by porn star Ron Jeremy in the same bed in which Odom nearly died.

During Hof’s reign, the licensed brothel offered a number of services 24 hours a day, including 4-Play for Two, Oil Wrestling, Viagra and Vibrators, and the Girlfriend Experience.  

The ranch, located in the desert town of Crystal, comes with pink rooms, sparsely decorated with posters, and little furniture, as well as the VIP room where Lamar Odom overdosed in 2015 and was found by two prostitutes.

The ranch was also featured on the HBO series Cathouse.  

For a cool $1.2million, the new owner will get all 75 acres and ‘the Ranch with 15 one-bedroom suites, two new kitchens, a new bar, a backhoe, track hoe, advertising truck and Limousine.’ The sale includes another ‘newly remodeled bar, two manufactured homes and another 21 developed lots ready to build on in Crystal & Pahrump.’ 

During Odom’s time at the brothel, he was reportedly drinking cognac and taking herbal Viagra, and possibly other drugs – although, the star denies it. Lamar was found unconscious with white foam dripping from his mouth by two prostitutes Ryder Cherry and Monica Monroe – who reportedly visited him as often as six times a day for ‘private party sessions’ – where they found him unconscious in the early afternoon. 

According to Love Ranch sources, the two sex workers told officers they saw Lamar go into the bathroom alone the night before then overheard a snorting sound.

They also claim the 6ft-10in former athlete was making a sniffing sound when he returned to the room – but denied seeing any drugs. 

It was later found that Odom wasn’t in possession of any cocaine and the cocaine discovered in his system had already metabolized — making it difficult to determine the time he had used it — when he was hospitalized on October 13, 2015 in extremely critical condition in Las Vegas and suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks. He was later transferred to a Los Angeles hospital. 

Odom, who was married to Kardashian from 2009 to 2016, reportedly spent $75,000 on two women who accompanied him in a VIP suite at Love Ranch.

A few months later, Odom accused Hof of trying to kill him and denied any drug use. 

‘I think Dennis Hof…I don’t know what he had against me, but I didn’t do drugs that night, to be honest with you,’ Odom said on The View in 2019. ‘So I don’t know if he tried to poison me, or…I don’t know what he had against me. He tried to kill me.’ 

Hof later said the athlete was just trying to ‘get away from all the pressure and have some fun.’

Three years later, Hof died quietly in his sleep at the ranch at the age of 72. He reportedly went into one of the rooms in the brothel with one of the girls the night before his death. He was also found naked and with a Magic Wand sex toy on the sheets. 

His friend, the porn star Jeremy, found him lying in the same bed Odom overdosed in, just hours after his birthday celebrations. 

‘I’m looking at this guy that’s been my friend for 25 years on the bed — you know, stiff; you know cold, eyes at half mast. I was like what the heck?’ Jeremy said in 2018.
