The Ranch Hand Getaway
The Ranch Hand Getaway is a two night minimum stay at the DU Ranch Stucco House in addition to a two hour minimum guided trail ride at Centre Peak High Country Adventures. We encourage you to personalize your stay and ride by adding more nights, longer guided trail rides and multiple days of riding if you so desire. The Ranch Hand Getaway is designed exclusively for you; there are no other guests staying or riding with you.
The Stucco House has remarkable charm and history. It is configured from two original homesteads which date back to the early 1900s. They were moved down from the DU Ranch hills in 1940 and placed on site in the present DU Ranch yard. The Stucco House accommodated many of the hired ranch hands and their families who worked on the DU Ranch throughout the years. In its later years it became a getaway for family to stay during visits to the Ranch. The DU Ranch has been a working family cattle operation since 1953.
The Stucco House is not a large house but that is part of its appeal. It has seen many great changes and updates during its lifetime including new kitchen counters and new floors. It offers all of the amenities. It provides a country feel but it also has a European and an African flair with regards to its antique furnishings and décor. It is surrounded by beauty, offering astounding views of the Livingstone Range to the west and of the Rocky Mountains to the south.
