Kids and Teens Program 

Our holiday winter kids and teens program sponsors daily, age-appropriate activities for guests’ children. Your child can participate in arts & crafts, ice skating, sledding, and a myriad of other indoor and outdoor activities. Enjoy breakfast and lunch together as a family and let your children choose which program activities they’d like to attend. Advanced sign up for the program is not necessary, and all kids ages 3-17 are welcome to enjoy the activities.

During the day, families can have their children join the program or do various on-ranch activities together. Each night, the kids and teens program sponsors a special activity while the adults eat separately. The evening program includes activities like a movie night, a skate night, and even a carnival night, where young guests can play skee ball, balloon darts, ring toss, and other carnival games. 

Family Activities 

If children don’t participate in the daytime kids and teens program, families can sign up for a number of activities in the Outfitter’s Cabin. Go on a winter horseback ride as a family, see the sights on a guided snowshoeing or cross-country skiing excursion, or try your hand at trap shooting, archery, hatchet throwing, or BB gun practice.

During the New Year’s Vacation program, the ranch also offers special, after-dinner entertainment each evening. Watch our live guitar show, featuring Rob Drabkin, a Denver singer/songwriter. Later in the week, sharpen your own musical chops with our family-friendly karaoke night. And of course, you’re welcome to finish off any night with hot chocolate and s’mores by the fire.  

The New Year’s Eve Party 

 Adults, teens, and children alike come together to ring in the new year. The party starts around 8:30 with live music by Cody Cozz. Along with the band and the dance floor, guests can enjoy mechanical bull riding, refreshments, finger foods, and of course, champagne. To help our youngest guests celebrate the new year, there’s a ball drop celebration when the clock hits 10. For our older guests, we celebrate again at midnight with a countdown and another champagne toast.

There comes a point on a lot of resort weekends where you realize you didn’t actually escape anything. All the BS and frustrations have followed you to paradise, and you’re still stuck waiting on dinner reservations, scrambling to reserve a pool chair, and listening to the cacophony blasting out of a stranger’s iPad speakers.

From the Horse's Mouth

I participated in the Julie Goodnight Clinic and loved every single minute. As a fairly new rider, I was worried that I would get overwhelmed or feel left behind, but instead I learned so much from instructors and participants. This experience was well beyond my expectations. I seriously have no complaints about course structure or content. I've already been using some of the skills I learned and my horses and I are more connected and I can tell my riding has improved 10x. Just can't say enough good things about Julie and her team. If the sessions were spread out to 5 days, I would be onboard because it was pretty intense (although I think it was exactly what I needed as a newer rider).
