“Much more fun than I expected!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2013

My wife and I went for the last week of the season, adults only, and it turned out to be one of the best vacations of my life! I hadn't really ridden a horse in 20 yrs, and my wife had never ridden, but the staff made us both comfortable and helped us turn into cowboys, haha! This was the... More

“Incredible riding totally makes this vacation!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2012

Just got home and am suffering "vacation withdrawl" after such a fabulous week at DWR. I truly hated to leave. My three girlfriends and I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and the highlight of the trip was the incredible riding -- great horses, stunning scenery (we timed it just right with the aspens turning!), excellent wranglers. As an avid trail... More

We will say hi if we are ever in your neck of the woods in Florida... a winter vacation from the freezing Colorado winters. Thank you for the wonderful... More

“A wonderful place for a family vacation!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2012

My wife, children (10,8, and 7), and I tremendously enjoyed our stay Aug 5-11. Our feelings about our stay are quite similar to the many glowing reviews already present on this website - in fact, one of the reasons we chose DWR in the first place was because of the reviews and TA ranking. Since I'm not covering new ground,... More

“Great Family Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 August 2012

We chose DWR as a "bucket list" experience for my 80 year old father. He was the oldest person in attendance and my three year old son was the youngest in attendance. Our whole family enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere where all age groups can enjoy the activities and cultivate friendly relationships with the other guests. The Fosha family and staff... More

Our extended family of 9 (my parents, my 2 boys aged 10 and 7, my sister, brother in law and my nieces aged 10 and 8) went to the Drowsy Water Ranch the first week of July 2012. I did a lot of research online to find the right ranch for our family trip and the Drowsy Water Ranch seemed... More

“Fantastic Dude Ranch Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2012

We just got home from our week at the Drowsy Water Ranch. Our kids are still teary-eyed and begging to go back next year. Our western style cabin was quaint, very clean, well appointed, and appropriately up to date. This is not a luxury resort, but quite comfortable and well suited. The Fosha family (owners) and all the staff we... More

Because I use TripAdvisor so religiously, I felt compelled to add my belated two cents about DWR. Our family of five vacationed there a couple of summers ago, and it was an amazing experience. All the glowing reviews are accurate -- the horses, the staff, the food, the scenery were all wonderful. And right on cue, all three of our... More
