We went to the Lazy J as an activity for the day after our friends' wedding in Vail. Although most…read moreof us were too hungover to do some horseback riding, it was still a great experience. Many in our group did skeet shooting, while the rest of us watched (and had snacks, of course). The weather was perfect, and the mountain landscape was breathtaking. We ended the day with a bonfire and some smores. Delicious! They had a beautiful wedding space here if you are looking for a lovely country-style wedding!

My husband and I searched tons of dude ranches looking for the perfect summer get-a-way from the…read moreTexas heat and settled on C Lazy U. We were NOT disappointed! Lodging: we chose the Aspen cabin since it was just the two of us. I loved everything about it, other then the number of stairs to and from the main ranch: the decor, very comfy bed (although we were pretty tired after all of our daily activities!), having my very own fireplace, and the view! Food: Waaay above my expectations. Honestly, I was blown away with the cuisine - both the taste and the amount of choices per meal. Chef Cory was very personable and came to the table daily asking for feedback. He also had an awesome mustache face mask to respect social distancing while he was walking table to table. Horses: I mean why else do you think I chose this place?!? Amy and Tammy choose a horse for you based on your skill and comfort level with horses and if you are happy with your horse, you get to keep that horse all week. The herd is over 200 horses so there is definitely one to fit your experience level. My horse was Gypsy and she was a dream! She was super responsive and loved to lope the trails. People: Wranglers: they get in early and jingle the horses to the barn every morning around 6:15...definitely worth getting up to see! They are all very experienced riders and not only guide you on your trail rides, but will help hone your skills and answer questions about horses, the property, etc along the way. Everyone was awesome, but a special shout out to Abby and Halsey for taking us on an all day ride, and fixing my saddle bag for me when it fell off. Walker, Maggie, and Haylei were awesome and made every trail a blast. I feel like I am a way better rider now because of all of them. Servers: The servers are all very nice and ensure you are enjoying every meal. This year, due to COVID, we ate meals outside by the pool, and the servers did a great job of getting food out to you quickly and making sure you had everything you need. Grace was such a sweetheart and we saw her at almost every meal. Thanks for being the best wine pourer we could have asked for. Ranch hands: there are quite a few ranch hands on the property doing all of the odds and ends jobs, including guiding activities. Cooper was very helpful in coaching us through archery, BB guns, skeet shooting, and he managed to not laugh at our epic failure throwing hatchets. They also do a night of branding so bring your leather belts and boots for them to put a C Lazy U brand on. Management: great management team here. Dave, the GM, walked around during meals asking for feedback. Paul and Scott, two of the assistant GM's, made cowboy coffee over a campfire in the mornings and went above and beyond to make sure you were having fun. Paul also MC'ed the Shodeo, which was an absolute blast. Activities: The river that runs through the property and the pond by the main building were both great for fishing. The spa was excellent and the tent I was in had a glass floor to look down and see the river during the massage. Kids - although we don't have kids, the ability to have a group of trusted counselors take care of the little ones while the adults had fun was very impressive! All in all, highly recommend this ranch to anyone ready to have a good time. The ranch was beautiful and the people were friendly. We will definitely be coming back!

We are extremely disappointed by the handling of our 2026 reservation cancellation. Our family…read morespent well over $100,000 at your ranch last year and had every intention of continuing to make C Lazy U Ranch part of our family traditions for years to come. We provided more than 60 days notice for this cancellation due to a serious illness in our family, yet you are unwilling to refund our deposit. Given the circumstances and our long-term loyalty as guests, this feels like a complete lack of compassion and customer care. This experience has permanently changed our perception of your ranch and unfortunately has cost you repeat customers and future referrals.

Or any combination of those things, the choice is yours. Great ppl, beautiful scenery, meals and lodging all included. It's a true vacation for parents and is fun for all ages, I can't recommend it enough. My kids want to go back every year and it's literally the only thing they've ever agreed on .

If your looking for a great place to keep your trailer for the summer there is no better place than this valley. I grew up spending the summer's here and I really enjoyed T lazy W as a community.

If you don't own a trailer than there are several permanent mobile homes and some of them usually have a for sale sign on them.

We love the Lazy R cottages and have been staying here since the 90's. The cabins are conveniently…read morelocated with a store, laundry mat and liquor store just across the street. There are other businesses and restaurants nearby too. Downtown Estes is not far either. Check in was easy and convenient. The cabins are well kept and very clean. The beds are comfortable and the towels and lines are nice and plush. If you have a cabin with a hot tub, you get plenty of towels for those dips in the hot tub. We stay in Cabin 15 or the other one just like it (can't remember the cabin #). My only issue and its not a big one, is that the cabin isn't really conducive to just hanging out in because there is really a lack of seating in the livingroom if you have a few people staying. The living room has a couch with a sofa sleeper so its not really comfortable to sit on and can seat 3 people. There is a chair with a pull out bed in it that is also not too comfortable and then there's a cute wood chair that's heavy and uncomfortable. The living room could use at least one more chair that isn't a wood chair.

We just got home from our Colorado trip where we spent four nights in Cabin 2 at Lazy R. The…read morelocation is great- on the main road right between Estes Park and an entrance to RMNP. The cabin was clean and well stocked for a rental cabin. Nicely stocked kitchen supplies (pots/pans, utensils, etc). They supplied coffee with sugar and creamers (though we brought our own), towels, TP, paper towels, shampoo, etc. Though they don't provide maid service they had a very easy system to use to order additional TP, towels, coffee, etc. I was really impressed with how well supplied it was. No AC, but the cabin cooled off in the evening with the windows open and we slept great! Cabin 2 has a covered porch that we spent almost all our cabin time on. When we weren't out and about, we were on the porch. The cabin sleeps 5, but it would be tight. For the 2 of us, it was plenty of room. Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent at Lazy R again if we return to Estes Park.

Price: Expect standard Vail pricing for high-end cocktails, with most drinks ranging between $16-$20. Customer Service: The service was fantastic. The staff was incredibly kind and efficient; even though we stayed for quite a while to catch up, we felt welcomed and well-attended to the entire night. Atmosphere This spot has a cool, welcoming vibe that feels very safe. It's the kind of environment where you can really settle in and enjoy the company you're with. The Drinks I ordered the Sangre del Sol. The flavor was amazing, though be warned it is very strong! It's an excellent choice if you enjoy a cocktail with a serious kick, but I ended up letting my friend finish mine after a few sips. Overall Experience I highly recommend Root & Flower for a beautiful setting and top-tier service. Pro Tip: A huge bonus for this location is the parking! You can park for free after 3 PM at the S. Frontage Rd. East garage right nearby. I'll definitely be back!
