April Short-Stay Family Special
Spring into C Lazy U this April with a rare short-stay special! You’ll still enjoy luxury lodging, gourmet food and most ranch activities, but only a 2-night minimum stay requirement.
The C Lazy U guest ranch is one of the best all-inclusive dude ranches in Colorado, and we truly shine in the springtime. Spring is one of the high seasons for groups at the ranch: we’re bustling with ranch weddings, family reunions, teambuilding events and corporate retreats. The one thing all these groups have in common is the desire to enjoy all that our Colorado dude ranch has to offer.
Our all-inclusive spring vacation packages provide everything you need to make your spring Colorado trip the best it can be:
From fly fishing on private waters to long horseback trail rides through the blooming landscape of the Rocky Mountains, spring is a feast for the senses in Colorado. Bring the family or a group of friends and plan a totally unique spring break vacation at the C Lazy U!
Wake up each morning to watch the sunrise above the Rocky Mountains as the horses graze in the corral. You’ll be greeted with a warm cup of Cowboy Coffee and ample ranch-style breakfast enjoyed with the whole family. After filling up for the morning, you’ll head off for the day’s activities.
Spring is an ideal time to book a trip to the dude ranch, as the changing weather in Colorado allows for even more activities. For the first half of April, you can still ski; the rest of the time, you can take part in a number of activities:
Trapshooting, archery, a ropes course, and zip line and hatchet throwing are also on the ranch’s list of activities — but how you enjoy your spring vacation at C Lazy U Ranch is entirely up to you.
When the sun sets, adults and kids enjoy a gourmet meal in the evening, followed by entertainment such as games, music, live entertainment, and a campfire around which guests swap stories and share their experiences.

Spring at the ranch is all about family togetherness. As opposed to summer vacations where children spend their days having fun with their peers and counselors, parents and kids stay together for family rides, ranch activities, meals, and more.
The supervised Children’s Program is reopened during holiday weekends such as Memorial Day, where they’ll spend time taking part in their own ranch adventure. Each age group has its own designated age-appropriate activities:
Kids will dine together in the evenings before rejoining their families for a night filled with games, music, live entertainment, and a cozy campfire with s’mores.
During all of it, you’ll receive our superior service, which means we go the extra mile to make sure that your stay is as wonderful as possible. It’s what makes C Lazy U Colorado’s all-inclusive guest ranch the top choice for your next spring vacation.

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
Natalie taught us how to ride horses; her instruction was clear, gentle, and kind. She taught us the similarities and differences between English and Western riding. We loved our time with the horses, but especially because Natalie helped us understand how to best interact with the horses. Natalie also helped us on the Feed Wagon ride, which was particularly special for us, because we got to feed horses, watch them eat, and watch them follow the feed wagon. Many thanks to Natalie for helping make this part of our stay magical.
