The article details our children’s program, ranch activities and some of our special events, which can all be enjoyed from the comfort of your luxury tent or cabin.
In their “Best of Colorado: Lodging and Accommodations in 2018” roundup, ColoradoBIZ included C Lazy U in the following categories:

There were already tons of reasons to go on spring break in Colorado — and now there’s one more.
We’re proud to be included among the many notable destinations in Colorado, and we hope to see you soon at the ranch!

What to Expect From Your First Colorado Dude Ranch Vacation Sure, you’ve seen the photos of wide-open pastures, horses moving through the golden aspens, and families gathered around a roaring fire at the end of the day. But photos from someone else’s vacation don’t really tell the whole story, do they? A dude ranch &…
From the Horse's Mouth
I'm still blissed out after our weekend at the ranch. Philip and I have traveled all over the state and truly, it was one of the best trips we've ever had. Thanks so much for extending the experience to us. Although ranch stays are trending and there are so many options in Colorado, I don't think I really understood the allure until visiting for myself. For one, I'm so glad we went in the wintertime. In chatting with the staff (who were all fabulous — service was a big stand-out feature), I got the impression that January-March is a quiet season. But man, are people missing out. We saw so much wildlife, enjoyed guided experiences with such intimate groups, and had a level of privacy I've never come across at an all-inclusive resort. The activities were abundant, the facilities and rental gear were high quality, and the food! The wine pairing dinner was an unexpected surprise and again, so intimate and enjoyable. The whole experience was such a treat. Thank you again. High praise all around. There's really so much to love about the destination.
