4UR Ranch

Our Guests

Many of our guests have been coming to the ranch for years and are now into the 4th and 5th generations. Countless solid friendships have been established between guests at the 4UR and continue to this day. Kids especially like seeing their “friends” the same week, year after year. Tradition is important at the 4UR.

Our Staff

We’re very proud of our experienced staff. Whether they’re organizing a day’s activities for the children or bringing a cool iced tea to the pool, you’ll notice their pride and service really makes the difference.

Riding the Range

If you’re an experienced rider we have some terrific trails waiting for you. If not, don’t worry, in no time, with a little help, you’ll be enjoying a gourmet picnic in the beautiful backcountry with friends. For the Junior Wrangler, we have a wonderful program designed to give kids the opportunity to learn all about horses. At the end of the week, they perform in the Gymkhana, a rodeo for youngsters.

Children’s Program

Youngsters of all ages are welcome at the 4UR. Counselors conduct special programs Sunday through Friday for those 5 years and up. Riding lessons, horse care, and grooming, trail rides, swimming, picnics, hikes, fishing, and hayrides are just some of the activities offered. We also offer a day-care program for those under the age of 5 years in the afternoons called the “Midges.”

Fishing Our Waters

We’ve spent many years creating the best possible environs for Browns, Rainbows, and Native Cutthroats. The result has been some of the best private fishing in the State of Colorado. And for the more adventurous, experienced guides can take you to timberline to fish our own “Lost Lakes,” perfect for a few nights stay in the wilderness.

Soak It Up

This ranch was founded by virtue of its natural hot springs. Modesty prevents us from claiming any medical miracles but the waters do have a tendency to relax the body and refresh the soul. Enjoy a therapeutic massage by one of our experienced massage therapists. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast there is swimming, sporting clays & trap shooting, hiking, rafting, mountain biking, massage therapy, or just about anything you can come up with. However, if you have a mind to kick back, come sit on the porch, put your feet up and read a good book or rustle up a bridge game. No matter what you choose to do during your stay, there is no place quite like the 4UR.

Ranch Season

Guests are welcomed to the ranch from June through October. JUNE is a wonderful month to attend an art workshop hosted by the 4UR or experience our popular Horsemanship Program. JULY and AUGUST are our busiest months so you’ll want to make your reservations early. The 4th of July festivities are legendary in nearby Creede. If you’ve never been with us for the fishing and the fall color of SEPTEMBER and OCTOBER, we can only tell you that it is indescribable. Fall is our favorite time to bring out the rods. This is a fisherman’s paradise. Come see us for a truly memorable summer.
