The Watanga is better for larger families with four bedrooms, 3 queen beds and a set of bunk beds and full bathroom. Additionally, there are four lodge units available all with queen beds, but only one of them has their own private bathroom. 

Onsite, you have access to the Lodge House that is home to Colorado’s smallest bar, The Red Dog Saloon, as well as two living rooms for relaxing by the fireplace. There is also an onsite Trout pond, great for beginner fishermen and Arapaho Valley Ranch offers free canoe rentals for guests to use on Little Indian Lake. Located in Grand County and just two hours from Denver, the ranch is surrounded by the Arapaho National Forest, which means this Colorado glamping site has plenty of hiking trails to explore.
