The “Hay Barn” is C Lazy U’s newest renovation that can accommodate a large number of guests for most group events.
GRANBY, CO (Dec. 21, 2015) – Located in the heart of Colorado’s stunning Rocky Mountains, C Lazy U Ranch is Colorado’s premier luxury guest ranch. Known for its five-star service and easily accessible from Denver, C Lazy U is one of the few remaining places where groups can experience a meeting or retreat far from the stresses of everyday life and filled with the rich traditions of the American West. The property features a collection of rustically elegant cabin accommodations, fine dining, a full-service “Lazy You” spa, and 8,500 acres of adventure. Not to mention their newly renovated Hay Barn meeting venue that can accommodate groups up to 100.
C Lazy U Ranch is perfect for incentive events, team building, corporate retreats, weddings and meetings. The Hay Barn also serves as the perfect location for an authentic western hoedown complete with a stage and bulb lighting to dance the night away. The ranch is also in the process of renovating the west wing of the main Lodge to create a new meeting/banquet room. This much anticipated space allows for the ranch to host multiple events simultaneously throughout the year.
“The new lodge meeting room is the next step in the ranch’s evolution to meet the needs of modern groups with just the right touch of western influence and history to stay in line with the ranch traditions,” General manager David Craig said. “It’s going to be a wonderful addition that we are all truly excited about.”
Beyond the meeting room group experience limitless year-round activities that include horseback riding, Orvis endorsed guided fly fishing, a ropes course and zip line, trap shooting and award winning spa to name a few in the summer. Winter activities include snow tubing, ice hockey and skating on a Zamboni-groomed pond, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and more. Condé Nast Traveler also announced the results of its 28th annual Readers’ Choice Awards, and C Lazy U Guest Ranch was recognized as a #1 resort in Colorado, the 4th best resort in the United States and the 13th best resort in the world.
