This is the perfect destination to create unforgettable moments!

Located just 25 minutes past Winter Park on highway 40, Granby Ranch is one of Colorado's best kept secrets. We chose this location due to the significant number of activities available year-round and the relaxing atmosphere due to the absence of large crowds found at the larger resorts. Whether it's skiing, tubing, biking, golfing, fishing or just kicking back and relaxing, you can find it all here in Granby Ranch.
For those looking for a little more action outside, this home is right next to the slopes of the Granby Ranch ski slopes. Granby Ranch is designed and operated with families in mind. It is widely regarded as one of the best areas in Colorado to learn to ski or ride on acres of beginner slopes. Trails of varying levels of difficulty and terrain all lead back to the base area, so family and friends can easily meet back at the same place.
For warm-season recreation, Granby Ranch also offers mountain biking, golfing, and fishing. You can use the lift to get your bike up the mountain or to start a hike from the top going down the many trails running throughout the Ranch. The Granby Ranch Golf Course offers 18 holes along the Fraser River. Our guests also have access to the heated pool, community hot tub, and fitness center at the base of the Resort.
A supermarket is just 10 minutes away. If you choose to dine out, a number of great restaurants and bars are nearby at Granby Ranch Base Camp, Silvercreek, and the Town of Granby.
Granby Ranch is within a 15 to 35-minute drive to Lake Granby, Shadow Mountain Lake, Grand Lake, and Rocky Mountain National Park. Winter Park town and ski resort is less than 30 minutes away for more skiing, biking, and hiking. Hot Sulphur Springs Spa and Resort is also nearby for soaking in warm mineral springs. More recreational and spa activities are also close by at Devil’s Thumb Ranch and the YMCA’s Snow Mountain Ranch.

Message from the Owner:
What do you love about your home?
"We love the beautiful views from high on the mountainside at Granby Ranch where we can see the ski slopes, golf course, and the Rocky Mountains in the distance. We also enjoy the close access to so much Granby has to offer: mountain biking or hitting the links at the Granby Ranch Golf course in the summer, or our ski-in / ski-out access to the slopes in the winter. Rocky Mountain National Park, Lake Granby, and Winter Park Ski Resort and so much more are just short drives away. While it is close to the best of Grand County, it is a quiet neighborhood and a great place to relax."
What makes your home especially unique?
"We've got plenty of space for your family and friends to spread out and relax! Our home is newly built in 2019, so it's got new finishes, heated floors, and lots of other luxurious touches."
