There is a dude ranch out west where the Colorado River runs off the Continental Divide

and winds its way through mountain valleys.  It's a land of green meadows, blue skies, 

and clean air.  This is Colorado ranch country, and has been for over 90 years.  Things have

changed some since the early days, but the history of horseback riding, fly fishing, family, and vacation remain a stronghold of tradition that passes down from one generation to the next.  



Since 1919 The C Lazy U guest ranch has been celebrated around the world for its rich history, 

rustic elegance and legendary cuisine.  Not only the premier Dude Ranch in Colorado, but 

the only guest ranch in North America to have ever achieved both the Five Star & Five 

Diamond awards as one of the best resorts in the country.



There is something (and then some) for everyone.  Kids enjoy adventure & discovery 

while adults do everything they want, or nothing at all.  Corporations & groups enjoy 

this Colorado ranch as a private and secluded retreat destination.  All fully complemented

by our signature 5-SPUR SERVICE!^TM and amenities that pamper.  



Thank you for taking the time to explore our Colorado ranch web site.  We really do

appreciate it.  You can learn more about our horseback riding family vacations here,

or you are always welcome to give us a 'holler on the phone, we'd love to hear from you.  Afterall,  personal interaction is as important to us today as it was back in 1919.
