Happy Canyon Ranch

6. Happy Canyon Ranch

35mi from Nucla · 1 site · Lodging · Montrose, CO
Happy Canyon Ranch is a hidden gem perched on the Uncompahgre Plateau in western Colorado, a wild and peaceful land where nature speaks in silence and sky. The terrain is dotted with Utah junipers and fragrant sagebrush, forming a high desert tapestry that glows in golds and greens under the sun. Perched along the canyon’s edge are massive safari tents, offering rustic luxury with sweeping views. From your canvas porch, you can often spot golden eagles riding the canyon thermals, drifting effortlessly above the rock-strewn cliffs. At night, the sky opens up into a cathedral of stars—pure, unpolluted, and endless—where the Milky Way is so clear it feels like you could reach out and touch it. The air is clean and crisp, scented with pine, earth, and sage. And rising in the distance, like a sentinel watching over the land, is the majestic Mount Sneffels—a 14,000-foot peak that shimmers with snow in spring and glows amber at dusk. This is not just a place. It’s an experience of stillness, scale, and sacred space. Happy Canyon Ranch is where the wild meets the soul.

Riverwood is your oasis in the high desert: we have a 1/3rd mile walking trail on the Gunnison River and a large pond, which allow for plenty of nature and shade. Guests have the best of both worlds: less than 20 minutes to the Gunnison Gorge NCA and Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Areas, but only a half-mile to the amenities of Delta including ample dining, minigolf, drive-in and vintage movie theaters and a large rec center. The Campground has nightly rentals, a bathhouse and grill station. Riverwood is your basecamp for adventure, whether that means gold medal fishing the Gunnison, ending a float from the Black Canyon or launching one through the Dominguez-Escalante NCA. Top-rated Colorado wineries, OHV Trails, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, mountain biking in Fruita or the Ridgway Area Trails (RAT) are all less than an hour away.
