Gage also led the mountain biking, which included single track and dirt road biking on The Home Ranch’s off-site property, called Murphy-Larson. He also leads additional rides into the national forest land adjacent the ranch, when permitted. In addition to the elevated cuisine and service, the amount of included activities at The Home Ranch is what sets it apart for me from the others we visited.
Additional perks include the children’s program and children’s meals. A smaller guest count means a better experience for all. This is one ranch that truly has a vast amount of activity for families, with ease of planning.
Hotel Review: The Home Ranch in Colorado
It's everything you'd want from a dude ranch experience, like a pinewood bed, Pendleton quilts, and a simple and snug vibe. When you drive up to the ranch on arrival, the first thing you notice might not be the barn and horses. Chickens and livestock are also raised on-site for local, sustainable meat and eggs. Disliked the lack of response to my texts and questions. I had to call to confirm next steps and appointments.
I have a toilet that causes negative pressure while flushing and occasionally "burps" sewage air into the master suite. Had the original "warranty" guy get belligerent in my house to the point of forcing him to leave. The light fixtures on the front of garage were cut so large theres a 1/2 of caulking to cover it up. The tile in the master suite is 2 different colors and was told that its normal.... The tile in master suite is also off square by about 3/4 inch over 6 feet.
Best Summer Family Vacations in Colorado
We got a lot of pushback when we found sink holes in various places around the foundation. Classic tried to blame the landscaper but eventually filled them a couple months later but we had to keep inquiring on the timeline. Our tree is still leaning but I doubt I’ll be able to get any further fixes on this issue due to the amount of initial pushback.
The dining room, where the chef turns out tasty Southwestern fare, has soaring ceilings and wonderful views. Accommodations are in the main lodge or in individual cabins with terraces and private hot tubs. The style leans toward Native American rugs and prints, lace curtains, terra-cotta tile or hardwood floors, and stenciled walls. A seven-night minimum stay is required in the summer; adults-only weeks are available in the fall. Discover a magical Colorado ranch experience when you stay at The Home Ranch.
Hiking, biking, and fishing:

They made us feel like family and are still to this day just as happy to see us one year later. It was a little slow but that is expected in the current climate so that’s just what it is .. The big leak a few weeks before closing was a big concern and the quality concern is 99.9% to do with door hanging .. The process itself was excellent and we worked with some great people who were very supportive all the way.. I like the overall quality of construction and the customer service provided throughout the process. There are specific design elements that I would recommend to have revisited.
Actually getting to the property is something to note. If you're lucky enough to fly from an airport that allows you to land directly into Hayden Airport, it's only a 45-minute shuttle or drive. If you're flying into Denver's most popular airport, you're looking at a four-hour drive.
The ranch sits on 500 acres of what was once agricultural land, and it’s surrounded by Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest and mountain peaks that reach up to 12,000 feet. In other words, The Home Ranch is encircled by preserved nature, making it ideal for hiking and horseback riding in the summer; and snowshoeing, light horseback riding, sleigh riding and cross-country skiing in the winter. Make your next family vacation something special at The Home Ranch. This exciting Colorado destination surrounds you with pristine natural landscapes, taking you far from the busy cities to a place where you can really reconnect. The kids will love learning how to ride horses right onsite, or just taking it easy at the outdoor pool.
You will never go hungry; Pastry Chef Douglas Short’s pastries and freshly baked breads were my personal downfall. Would love to speak to someone who cares in person about this. Issues are address very quickly and they are always happy to answer a question. We appreciated the quick response by the warranty team. I loved the weekly phone calls keeping us updated on the current status of our home. Extremely satisfied, everything went better than anticipated from start to finish.

The room was pretty bare, but by the end of a long day of doing cowboy stuff, you don't mind.
Around 2 pm, an afternoon ride is offered for all groups, or families can opt for pool time. Most days, we opted for a morning ride followed by an afternoon playing in the mountains in another capacity. The all-inclusive ranch is located in the sleepy town of Clark in the upper Elk River Valley. Though certainly not a one-horse town, it is a one-supermarket town, with a small ranching and tourist community.
There I was, horseback riding with my eyes tightly shut. Cross-country, skate and back country skiing on the ranch. Arrange a trip to the mountains at the desk for downhill skiing. The young team of passionate gardeners aims to expand your palate and engage your taste buds with dozens of new varieties of greens, roots, squash, beans, tomatoes, peppers, and much more. Next to the recreation building in front of the lodge sits the hiking hut and the fishing hut.
And even better, cabins and the main lodge are intersected by trails, so it’s easy to squeeze in multiple ski or snowshoeing sessions throughout the day. Ive been told several times that they wont fix the plaster holes that air bubbles caused due to poor craftsmanship. I have a few walls that are off square buy visible amounts.
