LUXURY DUDE RANCH IN STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, COLORADO | 970-879-3858
Guest Post I never got to interact with horses growing up, so for all I knew they were like any other pet– intriguing at first but tend to lose their shiny-new-toy sparkle as owners forget to invest relationally as life gets busy. My interaction with horses started over a year ago when I had the opportunity…
Valentine’s Day is always a romantic day at Vista Verde, but this year it was even more than normal. Former staff member Ben Gammie brought his girlfriend Brooke out for a couple nights. On Valentine’s Day, our crew of cupids set up the Homestead cabin with rose petals, champagne, strawberries dipped in chocolate and a…
I’ve been trying to keep you all updated on what’s going on with the Lodge addition, but haven’t given you an update on the indoor riding arena. That’s partly because there wasn’t a whole lot to look at until recently. There was a lot of dirt being moved, and a lot of steel supports being…
Guest Post Cliffs, jagged turns, bumps, and speed! My first time snowmobiling and I’d do it again in a heartbeat! I joined in with some of our guests, a family from Holland, who were out for their second Snowmobile extravaganza since arriving for their winter getaway in Colorado.

After 10 days of sunshine and blue skies, the clouds came back last night and we woke up to fresh snow this morning. Granted, it was pretty sloppy snow because the temperatures were pretty warm. But, throughout the day it’s turned into fluffier snowflakes and is piling up more each hour. Steve and Kelli left…
Think back to your favorite Western; the romantic mountain getaway, with the mustangs running wild and free across the plains of the west. Built for the rugged terrain of the Colorado Mountains, the cowboys tamed and trained some of these wild mustangs. Many herds of these horses still running free today. In an effort to…
Almost two years ago we had a film crew come out to the ranch and follow a family around on their vacation. It all sounded nice and benign when we got the call and put them in touch with a family who was willing to be filmed. It turned out to be a little more…
Happy New Year! We rang in the New Year with our annual Progressive Dinner on skis and the sleigh and enjoyed the evening’s festivities with a wonderful group of guests. As we look forward to the New Year, we are excited about projects that will be completed this year. As you can see, the Lodge…
