Summer Colorado Ranch Vacations
Experience the magic of summer in the San Juan Mountains at our all-inclusive Colorado dude ranch. From June through early September, families and friends gather at our 450-acre ranch near historic Durango to enjoy warm days filled with adventure, relaxation, and authentic Western fun.
Each week is carefully planned to showcase the best of Colorado summer. Ride horseback through mountain trails, cast a line in sparkling streams for rainbow trout, cool off in the heated outdoor pool, and join evening cowboy cookouts under the stars. Families love our dedicated kids program, while parents enjoy time together knowing their children are making new friends and learning new skills.
Dining is a central part of the experience. Executive Chef Davis Hood leads the kitchen with a creative farm-to-table approach that celebrates local flavors. Menus showcase fresh herbs and vegetables from our on-site garden, eggs from the ranch, and seasonal ingredients sourced across Colorado. The team also operates a zero-waste kitchen, ensuring that every ingredient is used with care and purpose. Guests can expect meals that are refined, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. Every plate reflects the same commitment to sustainability, authenticity, and quality that defines your time at the ranch.​
​
Blending outdoor adventure, meaningful connections, and unforgettable meals, summer at Colorado Trails Ranch is more than just a getaway. It is an experience you will carry with you for years to come!
