COLORADO’S PREMIER MOUNTAIN RESORT

With 6,500 pristine acres to explore, there’s no shortage of awe-inspiring scenery or mountain adventure in our neck of the woods. At Devil’s Thumb Ranch we offer experiences that embrace the pioneering spirit of the early homesteaders while honoring and preserving the pristine landscapes for future generations.

At the Ranch, guests are invited to participate in real, authentic ranch adventures from horseback riding, fly fishing, and cross-country skiing, to fat tire mountain biking, zip lining, and more on over 6,500 acres of Rocky Mountain wilderness. Simply unplug from everyday life and lounge by the year-round heated pool and hot tub, destress with daily yoga, or curl up by the fire, roast a marshmallow, and reconnect with the people who matter most. It is, dare we say, an authentic Colorado Ranch experience you simply can’t find anywhere else. Check out all the activities offered at the Devil's Thumb Ranch here.

The Ranch is home to two great restaurants that offer menu items produced right on the Ranch, Heck's Tavern and the Ranch House Restaurant & Saloon, both offering authentic dining experiences with breathtaking views. The Hallowed Grounds Coffee Shop is also open daily offering freshly-baked breakfast pastries and bread from our bakery, a full selection of coffee, latte, chai, juice, beer, wine and more, plus daily selections of sandwiches.

The unique history of the Devil's Thumb Ranch dates back to the 1930's and in the early 2000's the resort was preserved by the current owners from being developed into a residential and golf course community. Read all about the amazing Ranch history here.
