We did a 2 hour private ride with a group of 12 and it was amaaaazing! The aspen groves are beautiful and the view from the top is awesome! All of the beauty without the work of hiking to the top. We also bought the cowboy hats that they sold for $30 in their store, and it brought the photos to the next level! Our guides were so kind and knowledgeable!! The horses were sweet and so so we'll trained - those horses live the best life! If you are going to go horseback riding in Colorado, your research is done - this is the best place you can go.

He walked over to us while we were waiting to get signed up. The stories from this Steamboat legend were priceless. He cracks up when he said he was a city boy bec he was born and raised in downtown Steamboat. He was an Olympic athlete as well and rode all his life until 2 years ago at 85 when he fell off a horse and sustained serious injuries. His grandson, Justin, took us on our half day ride. The views were spectacular. Wildflowers were everywhere. There has been elk in the past but it was not in the cards today . Justin was another great storyteller and an amazing guide. Sign up for their tours. You will not be disappointed.

We reserved a private sleigh ride recently and were a little disappointed with the length of our ride. Granted, all aspects of our trip out to the ranch were a very unique experience... but by the end of the night my fiancé and I had wished we had just gone on the sleigh with the entire rest of the group of people since there was hardly anything romantic about having 15 people trailing behind us and to eat dinner in a tepee with. If the ride had been completely private it could have potentially been worth the price, but I'm not sure. The staff is all very friendly and are great people, but in the end I felt like this was another one of those things you do on a vacation just to say you did it and not really for the memories.

You can probably see straight across to Denver from up there. Jason even took photos of the group on the way up. This was an extremely memorable day. Thanks Jason for showing us a peek such enormity..And thanks Taylor for being awesome! Look them up folks. You won't regret it. Later my peeps...

He was very kind to our 12 year old son who had never been on a horseback ride (other than pony rides) and made us all so comfortable knowing we were in good hands. The ride up King Mountain was gorgeous, the views incredible. He even took the time to take our group photos for us. He made sure to give us lots of info on all the flora & fauna as we went as well as telling us all about the geological formations we saw! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this outfit for your horseback riding experience- we've all been raving about it since the minute we left!

I emailed a few times and called and each time I had prompt responses with courteous service and that is big when planning logistics of a trip. The places is family owned and each person that works there shows care for the Ranch, their role there and pride in what they do. The whole family feel made it feel like we were family. We stayed in a "Cabin" which was cozy and lovely for 4 nights. It had a super comfy bed (love the sheets!), fridge and they even accommodated us with a microwave for our personal needs. The best touch was the wood burning stove and we lit fires 3 of the nights even in July which was such a nice touch. They provide everything you need for a fire. The meals were all included and were divine! From the salmon, to the grass fed steak (my fav!) to the unique desserts (chocolate lava cake anyone?) we ate like Kings! It's family style dining as far as you are sitting at tables with other ranch goers which made for lovely conversation. One breakfast was out remote from the kitchen/dining area and we ate on a cliff overlooking sunrise. Pretty special! The views are to die for. From every angle. We even did a 2 mile hike (round trip) to see a waterfall that was remarkable! Tons of wild flowers in every direction. While we did not ride horses, we did enjoy the grounds with sunrises and coffee, the pool over looking the horses and the hot tub! Humming birds whirl Around you all the time and you get tons of pics with chickens and ducks. One of our favorite nights was listening to an acoustic guitar with Cowgirl music played by Caitlyn in front of the lake at sunset!!! Don't hesitate to make this experience happen whether you have a family reunion, honeymoon, vacation or just something new. Lisa, Randy, Patty, Amanda, Spencer and all will help you have the time of your life!

We decided to stop here and see what we could get to go, since we had our two dogs with us. There is an outdoor sitting area that's covered and has a beautiful view. I went in while my husband sat outside. I brought menu out and we decided upon the GF pizza (hoping for the best, we never know what we might get). And last min I ordered the fries. My husband doesn't have to eat GF, but decided to eat with me and not get his own. It only took about 15-20 mins for our order. We were so shocked at how AMAZING that pizza was. I normally am disappointed in GF pizza, always tastes like cardboard. This did not taste like cardboard and was the best GF pizza I have ever had. I will be craving this pizza for the rest of my life now. Even my husband said it delicious. I can't wait for next summer when we return to have another one. They offered only one size of the pizza and it was enough for two people. I highly recommend stopping in and getting one, maybe two! Lol We got pepperoni, mushrooms and sausage - mmmm so tasty!!
