Black Burro Ranch, Colorado

Black Burro Ranch is located in the foothills of the beautiful San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado. The ranch is the perfect base camp for exploring the areas that are rich in history and outdoor activities!  Located between Montrose and Ridgway, there is access to National Parks and Monuments (Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Colorado National Monument, Mesa Verde, Arches and Canyonlands), National Forests and Wilderness, and BLM areas. The town of Ouray, the Little Switzerland of America, is close by and home to the famous Ouray Hot Springs, the gateway to the Million Dollar Highway, and home to incredible hiking, climbing and jeeping.  Grand Junction, Palisade, Fruita, Gateway, Crested Butte, Telluride, Silverton, Durango, and wine country are all within a day trip of the ranch!  Other local attractions include the amazing Ute Indian Museum. The property is located in a very quiet area, so we respectfully ask you to be respectful of our neighbors and be very quiet too!  Sound travels a very far distance here, and we all love the fact that noise is one of those things that is rare here!  It's almost like experiencing an Endangered Species!!!  Also home to Black Burro Clayworks; personal pottery lessons are available upon request and artist's availability.
