Come and join us during this special time of year with our Two Day Fall Getaway Packages.

An all inclusive vacation at the only Relais & Chateaux dude ranch in Colorado is, quite simply, one of the finest Colorado vacations you can imagine, at one of the best dude ranches in the West. A luxury dude ranch in the summer, and a beautiful cross country ski resort in the winter, our luxury vacation packages include large doses of nature, health, and happiness. Horseback riding vacations so good that cowboys sing. Colorado cross country skiing so perfect it makes Norwegians cry. Fly fishing so good even flies rejoice. Named as one of the "1,000 Places To See Before You Die," The Home Ranch offers charming cabins and refined Steamboat Springs lodging, exquisite gourmet cuisine, and a million acres of Wilderness in the backyard. When Colorado vacations grow up, this is where they go.

As you enter the Elk River Valley, just beyond Steamboat Springs Colorado, you may notice the peaked eaves of the barns, the storybook crest of Hahn's Peak in the distance, and the feeling that you are going back in time to a more idyllic landscape, one that hasn't changed much in 100 years. No condos. No streetlights. Just Colorado as you hoped it would be, and as it once was. Big ranches. Blue skies. Real cowboys.

And tucked away at the far end of the valley, where the Elk River flows from the Sawtooth Range, is one of the West's best dude ranches, offering year-round multi-sport adventures, legendary horseback riding vacations, Orvis-endorsed fly fishing, and a Colorado Cross Country ski vacation made in sparkling powder heaven.

Thank you for stopping by!

This is a special place. The beauty of the Elk River Valley is unsurpassed. The experience of visiting our ranch is beyond expectation.

We encourage you to explore our website, but we can't express in words the reality of our ranch.

The taste of Clyde's cuisine, the warmth of the barn dance, the human-horse connection of a horsemanship class, and the joy of the children bonding with each other are all to be lived here each week throughout the summer.

Call Selina or myself to plan your summer vacation.
