10 Best Ranches and Lodges for Families in the American West - AFAR

"An intimate mountain retreat composed of six private log cabins and two three‑bedroom homes available for group buyouts, all finished in a rugged, timbered aesthetic with lofted beds and fluffy duvets. Guests gather in an unpretentious Main Lodge—once a general store—for fireside drinks and daily seasonally inspired meals, while summer activities center on fly‑fishing the Gunnison River, floating, hiking, games, and nightly s’mores beneath dark skies. Winter programming focuses on wellness and movement, offering snowshoeing, forest bathing excursions, spa treatments, and relaxation in a new airy Bathhouse." - Jennifer Flowers, Nora Zelevansky, Devorah Lev-Tov
