About Waunita Hot Springs Ranch

People think the ranch is all about riding. We do offer a lot of riding, but there is so much more for riders and non-riders alike. Camping— Following the Thursday evening cookout at the Canyon Creek forest camp, we will offer an overnight for those who wish to spend the night under the stars. You may bring your own sleeping bag for this activity or use one of ours. Tents are provided and foam mats are available. Rafting— If horses were not enough, put your adventurous spirit to the test with our rafting excursions. For those ready to race the rapids, a whitewater raft trip on the Taylor River is offered on Tuesday, or for those who want something a little more leisurely, we offer a float trip on the Gunnison River. Ranch Fun— The evening hayride and marshmallow roast is always a good time. An evening of square dancing is also scheduled, complete with instruction for all. Shopping-Site Seeing— You may choose a morning of shopping in Gunnison or a visit to the Gunnison Pioneer Museum. We also offer scenic Jeep excursions up to Veras Mine and other notable areas around Waunita and the Gunnison area. Recreation and relaxation— The many other activities available at the ranch include hiking, rockhunting, softball, movies, slide show, ping-pong, pool, horseshoes and swimming. A full weeks activities are planned for you. . . or you may just choose to relax. Ranch Animals—Ranch animals, besides our string of fine horses, include lambs, goats, pigs, ducks, chickens, dogs and cats, many of which enjoy the occasional petting, scratching or feeding. Younger folks may help with feeding small animals. Falls and Winters— September is a special time in the mountains. The brilliant display of fall colors is a once-a-year show. From December thru mid-April ranch facilities are also available for downhill ski groups, snowmobile clubs, church retreats, or small group meetings.
