Colorado Trails Ranch, Durango -Colorado

Beautiful Accommodations

The ranch is open for guests from June through October. During the peak summer season the ranch hosts 55 guests per week with everyone arriving on Sunday and departing after breakfast the following Sunday.
Our beautiful mountain lodge overlooks a secluded valley. This is where we gather for some of the most important ranch activities: Meals. Breakfast is served buffet style, lunch and dinner, are served family style. It is always your choice: you may eat together as a family or the kids may enjoy eating with their counselor and friends. All of our meals are homemade (just like grandma's) with healthy food and lots of it.

Cabins
Our cozy, beautifully decorated cabins will easily accommodate families, couples and singles. All cabins have comfortable porches and private baths for each bedroom, and daily housekeeping. Please call, we will be happy to discuss your accommodation needs. The ranch's twelve cabins can accommodate everything from singles, to families of six, with the majority of summer visitors being families. Our weeklong packages offer a comprehensive vacation destination including accommodations, all meals, all on-ranch activities and gratuities.

Facilities include:

  • heated swimming pool
  • hot tub
  • archery range
  • rifle range
  • basketball court
  • laundry room (free washers and dryers and detergent)
  • cabins
  • volleyball court
  • horseshoe pit
  • petting zoo (with goats and miniature horses that kids love!)

Across from the Lodge is our Trading Post and old-fashioned soda fountain. Here you will find sweatshirts, T-shirts, hats and sundries plus real ice cream sodas and phosphates. Next door, the Ruckus Room is a wonderful place for the kids to gather between activities. They enjoy ping pong, air hockey, foosball and a pool table but no video games. You will enjoy activities in our Opera House and swapping "fish stories" while picking up your fishing gear in the Blacksmith Shop. Our heated pool and whirlpool are ready to soothe your muscles after a day filled with activities.

Meals
Breakfast
may include: homemade granola, cereal, toast, different kinds of homemade breads, yogurt, fresh fruit, and a hot breakfast item (such as homemade waffles, wrangler eggs, French toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage). We have two breakfast cookouts: one is a pancake cookout. The other is a CTR tradition – there’s a family ride to the cookout, where you can get eggs made to order, grits, Navajo fry bread, and grilled kielbasa.
Lunch may include: homemade soup and salad bar, Philly and chicken cheese steaks, homemade pizza, grilled chicken breasts, burgers and veggie burgers with all the fixings, Reuben and grilled cheese sandwiches, tortilla wrap sandwiches, and a taco bar. For dessert, there are fresh-baked cookies, brownies, or lemon bars.
Dinner may include: prime rib, salmon, specialty chicken dishes, pork, grilled tenderloin and veggies, pasta, garden vegetables, homemade breads, with a fresh green salad that changes nightly. There are two cookouts during the week. One starts with a hayride and features a cowboy singer (and sing-along!). The other is our very special farewell dinner, which you’ll get to experience on Saturday night.
Desserts are homemade and may include: fudge pudding cake with ice cream, turnovers, cheesecake, ice cream pie, carrot cake, Napoleon puff pastries, bread pudding, and apple pie.
With advance notice, we can accommodate special dietary needs. We ask for as much information as possible before you arrive; on your first evening here, you can meet with our chef to discuss the best options for the week ahead.
