If you want to enjoy the beautiful Colorado mountains, waking up to the sounds of the Colorado River, eating fantastic food, horseback riding on numerous pictureous trails then the Bar Lazy J is for you. This year was my 6th visit with number 7th already scheduled for 2012. Upon every return it feels like going home to family. Jerry and... More

Adult Week- September. To quote the song,"I had the time of my life", if there is a Heaven on Earth, I found it at the Bar Lazy J Ranch. This was my first solo trip & for as 65 year old women, I could not have been treated better. Cheri & Jerry(owners) & staff get it, as to how to... More

It is difficult to come up with new superlatives to describe the Bar Lazy J Guest Ranch. After going there annually for 7 years, you would think that there would be no surprises…but that is not the case…and all the surprises are good ones. They continually exceed our expectations with new trails to explore, improvements to an already fantastic facility,... More

We spent the 3rd week of August at Bar Lazy J. This is such a fantastic vacation for families! The cabin was so cozy, comfortable and clean! The food was delicious with plenty of options. Cheri and Jerry, the owners, were very in tune to their guests and were completely involved the entire week. There are so many optional activities... More

Two families were returning for their 8th and 9th time at the ranch. We really enjoyed our stay and I would recommend it for anyone looking for a dude ranch to... More

This was our seventh family reunion trip to the Bar Lazy J. Our experience was awesome as always. We had 27 family members in attendance. The staff is the best in all areas. Beautiful views on the horse rides. Very relaxing atmosphere. Can't wait for our next trip!!!

I, like most of you reading this, research places obsessively before I travel to them. I read every hit on google and analyze every picture and pore over every review on this site. If I am going to spend hard earned cash on something that isn't a necessity, I want to know I am getting my full money's worth. You... More

My family (husband, daughter aged 61/2 and I) stayed at the Bar Lazy J in July 2011. Horseback riding was the primary activity and the horse operation was very well run. Anyone over 7 years old could rides on the trails, so my husband and I were matched up with a horse for the week. I've been to other dude... More

This was my third consecutive year coming to the ranch with a friend during the first (adults only) week of the year. The ranch and staff are superb. The horses are great. Even with the summer staff turnover, we see so many familiar faces (especially guest returnees that keep coming back year after year). That alone says volumes about the... More
