DetailsBy Krista Coy- Front Desk Extraordinaire Coming from the core of the corn belt in Indiana, it seems Colorado has it all from the golden-lit snow-capped mountains to the calm cool lakes.

Details2011 may officially be the craziest year of weather, and I’m saying that only half way through the year. You all probably heard enough of my talk about the winter with immense amounts of snow we had at our Colorado dude ranch. And then there was the spring …… with immense amounts of snow. As…

DetailsYears ago we had the great folks from Ricola out at the ranch for a family vacation. After their visit, they kindly sent us some tubs of Ricola drops to share with our guests. Over the years, it has become a tradition to have a stash of Ricola in our amenity baskets for our guests.…
DetailsIn order to get the landscaping completed around our new pool, we had to get the snow blowers out and remove the snow this spring. That wasn’t quite in the plans, but with the record snowfall we received this winter and early spring, it was quite a task. Charlie and the ranch hands took it…
