Ranch Creek Lodge

By Brenda, Posted: 08/05/2022

It was a delightful stay..especially loved the east facing bright kitchen and deck for the early morning sunrises. The lower level was perfect for the two teen boys and all enjoyed table tennis. We liked the seclusion of not being able to hear or see any neighbors. The fire pit was great for our last cookout and S'Mores. The only suggestion was our daughter pulled up directions to property on her phone and came off of Highway 40 on 108 going east (Not sure if that was the right number, but had to go little further north than your directions but so much easier and you didn't have all the stops and turns which were much more complicated than the way they got to property. All in all we loved our time there and you were extremely on top of everything with any questions we had. Would definitely recommend that property.

MANAGER'S COMMENTS: Thank you Brenda! We loved hosting you at Ranch Creek Lodge. It sounds like you had a fun and relaxing vacation. Thank you also for letting us know about the directions.  We will check those and make sure they are updated correctly. Have a great summer and keep in touch when you want to plan your next adventure to Winter Park!

As we drove into the valley, we were in awe of the beautiful surroundings and as we approached Ranch Creek Lodge, we collectively smiled. We had four families stay for a total of 14 people and there was plenty of room for everyone! The best part of booking with Winter Park/Steamboat Lodging is the incredible service we have had each time we have used them and this was no exception. The service team was extremely friendly and very helpful! We highly recommend hiring Chef Scott fort one night to spoil everyone with his cuisine and kindness. From the back deck to the hot tub to exploring the hill behind the house, this was one of the best experiences we’ve had. Highly recommend Igor for the Ropes Course too. Love supporting the local businesses. Thank you to Peggy again for all of your help throughout the process! See you next year! Charlotte

MANAGER COMMENTS:  Fabulous!  So many thanks Charlotte for coming to stay with us.  We've enjoyed working with you as well....and I know Peggy did!  Hope we can help you out for next year too.  Be well!    ~  Winter Park Lodging Company Team

Ranch Creek Lodge was the ideal house for 6 adults and 5 children. We especially enjoyed the ping pong table, the east facing deck and the hot tub. There was plenty of room for all. The only thing missing was a game table on the main level which would have freed up space on the dining table...minor item. Winter Park Lodging Co was very responsive to our requests and for information when we needed it...even on a Sunday! Well done.

MANAGER COMMENTS:  We are all so thrilled to read this.  We will mention another smaller table on the main level for more usable space.  We are happy to help anytime you need it.  Do come stay with us again!

Our stay at Ranch Creek Lodge was the best. It's a perfect place for large groups and everything you need is there. We would definitely give it an A+. Winter Park Lodging Company were great to work with and checked in with us to make sure everything was going good. Our vacation at Winter Park CO was all we hoped it would be.

MANAGER COMMENTS: Hooray!!!  So pleased you guys enjoyed staying with us.  The Ranch Creek Lodge is a tremendous property for larger groups.  Do come again!

Perfect getaway home....very quiet location and we didn't mind the extra drive to be more remote during COVID. Views for days and the mountains are RIGHT THERE! It was just what we needed to get out of the city and unwind. We hope to return as soon as we can. Thanks for use of your lovely retreat!

MANAGER COMMENTS: Ranch Creek Lodge surely is a very special place. We are so pleased you found it a nice retreat for your family. Let us know how we can help get you back to those amazing views!

The home we rented was very nice. The Winter Park Lodging Company people were great. They left us a nice note and gift basket when we arrived. It was so appreciated. They answered promptly when we had questions. Thank you so much for making our stay so pleasant. We will definitely rent from you again.

Manager Comment: We want you to know we are here to help make your stay great! So nice to know you enjoyed your gift basket and we could take care of you.

This is our 2nd visit to Ranch Creek Lodge and our family loves it. We had 15 people of all ages. It works great for our kids families that have different ages and the kitchen is well stocked. The place is beautiful, relaxing and Winter Park Lodging Company goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect. We love the area it's in as well. People were very friendly. We will book this property again and use this company again. Everyone was wonderful. Thanks so much!

Perfect or our group of 4 families on Spring Break. Plenty of room for the the Adults and Kids to have their own space. Quite, clean, remote but not too far from WP. We will definitely come back.

We had several couples with kids and had loads of room. Great place in a great location.

MANAGER COMMENTS:  We all thank you for writing in to let us know.  We do hope to host you again soon!

We recently stayed with a group of 10 adults and 9 children and had plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was well equipped to cook meals in and the location was convenient to a nice grocery store. The views are beautiful and there was lots of room outside to play in the snow and even do some sledding for the littler kids. We would definitely stay here again with a large group. Winter Park Lodging Company was easy to work with, were accessible with questions during our stay and followed up after we left to make sure everything was satisfactory. Would highly recommend!

MANAGER COMMENTS:  That's so great to hear!  We are all so pleased to hear you enjoyed you stay and the Ranch Creek Lodge.  I love it up there!  So pretty.  Do let us know when you head back this way.

It was a pleasure to spend two nights at the beautiful Ranch Creek Lodge. Upon arrival, we found the property to have all the space and supplies we needed to cook several big meals, relax in either of the spacious living areas (and hot tub!), and enjoy the quiet natural beauty of the surrounding area. We'll never forget waking up to our first snow of the season on the first morning at the Lodge! Simply put, this was yet another outstanding rental experience from Winter Park Lodging Company. We were reluctant to leave, but are looking forward to our next trip back!

had a great time. Your office was great.

We cannot say enough great things about Ranch Creek Lodge! We chose this home as our headquarters as we celebrated our daughter's wedding at Sunspot. It provided us plenty of rooms to host family and friends for dinner. The house is absolutely gorgeous with a huge kitchen open to great room. The windows on every side provided a spectacular vista that changed from beautiful fall colors to a an unexpected winter wonderland with a foot of snow. Everyone who visited us raved about the home. We were so blessed to share the Darby home and would highly recommend it to others for a special event or just a great place to stay with family and friends.

MANAGER COMMENTS: Congratulations!  Sounds like everyone had a spectacular time for the weeding.  We are so pleased to hear that Ranch Creek did not disapoint.  It's a pretty special place out there.  All our best to the newlyweds!  Hope they can return for Anniversaries!

Our stay at Ranch Creek Lodge was the best for lodging our family for our son's wedding. We had 9 adults and 3 children and there was plenty of room for all, including lower level with full kitchen and playroom. We spent time on the deck and hot tub and just hanging out in living room. Wonderful stay, would do it again!!

MANAGER'S COMMENTS...Photos from the wedding look fantastic.  Glad you were able to relax and enjoy the festivities.

We had a fabulous time at Ranch Creek Lodge. This is a beautiful home. We used all 6 bedrooms for the 14 of us which included our 4 grown children, 3 with spouses/ girl friend, and 5 of our grandchildren. We used both kitchens, enjoyed the hot tub, and roasted marsh mellows outside in the fire pit. The Lodge sits in the middle of a beautiful valley with many places to hike and explore. We hope this home will be available again next year for our family!

MANAGER'S COMMENTS...This sounds like an incredible family vacation and lots of memories were made at Ranch Creek Lodge..Loved hearing how you took advantage of all the great amenities this beautiful home has to offer. Come stay with us again anytime. Happy to host you!

Best Girl's Weekend Ever! We usually try a different place each year, but we may have found our forever reunion location at RCL. So much space...we each had our own room with comfy beds, a huge kitchen to cook meals, another kitchen to prepare our apps/drinks for the ping pong tournament and I can't even say enough about the Deck. We enjoyed the deck and hot tub so much, we didn't even have to leave the house. Oh, and we loved the space in the living room to play charades. To describe the home I have one word, 2 syllables, what you say when you see a puppy and the result of 2+2.....Awe-Some!
