Welcome to The Home Ranch and thank you for considering our home as a unique Colorado mountain venue for once-in-a-lifetime corporate retreats, meetings and team-building exercises.

Our Philosophy

At The Home Ranch, we believe the best ideas happen outside of the board room. We believe creativity, productivity and fresh communication are enhanced by getting far away from the desk. That's why some of the top corporate leaders in the world come here to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with the natural world and their own genius.

Creative Breakthroughs and Fresh Insights

During Home Ranch retreats, we expect to see people breakthrough to more creativity and deeper insight into themselves, but we don't take credit for the breakthroughs; we simply provide tools, support and space for great breakthroughs to occur.

Sometimes the greatest inspiration for an organization happens when a team member is riding a quarter-horse across a mountain ridge, casting a fly in wild river, or skate-skiing across a snow covered meadow. We understand this, and we'll do anything your group requires to create the circumstances and situations your group needs to think outside the usual boundaries.

For the most part, credit for fresh inspiration and creative breakthroughs goes to Mother Nature and the Rocky Mountains. Our sublime setting on 4,000 acres of natural perfection in the spectacular Elk River Valley provides an original edge to your meetings and exercises that can’t be duplicated in a typical business setting. What we offer is the extraordinary.

The only dude ranch in Colorado with membership in the prestigious Relais & Chateaux boutique hotel association, and a featured property in the first issue of “1,000 Places To See Before You Die,” The Home Ranch is world-renowned for the unspoiled beauty of its setting, its legendary hospitality, its exceptional chef and exquisite meals, the excellence of its horsemanship program, and the unforgettable outdoor and wilderness adventures at its doorstep

We offer your group an all-inclusive package of lodging, gourmet dining and the challenging year-round activities of horseback riding, hiking, fly fishing, and Nordic skiing on our 4,000 acre property - with immediate access to the million acres of the surrounding Mt. Zirkel Wilderness and Routt National Forest.
