M Lazy C Ranch

It's a bit weird when you call- you think it is an AI or computer as the person is so automated. They ask for your phone number and email address right away even though you may have just a simple question. However, after that weird interaction, everything else was very pleasant. People get back to you right away and answer all your questions. Rocco is very helpful on site. The place is immaculate, even the driveway into the ranch. The buildings are very well maintained and clearly marked. The scenery is gorgeous, and the horses look very well taken care of.

The staff and experience was top shelf. The horseback riding was so much fun (hi Danny!), even for a middle aged newbie like me! It's dusty, yeah. But it's a ranch. We cannot wait to return, and see those beautiful night skies. Kind people, and beautiful location.

If you are interested in horses and camping this is the place for you. This old home stead (1906) has the original feel and character of the old west. MANY of the original building still exist. There is horse back trail rides, hiking, fishing and even a chuckwagon dinner on Saturday nights. Most camp site have a pen in the back to keep your horse. FANTASTIC location , WONDERFUL staff and just a great place to be. Just west of Colorado Springs, deep in the mountains

We enjoyed a great Sleigh Ride with our family this weekend. We had the sleigh all to ourselves due to COVID so the experience was extra special. The ranch hands were wonderful. The owner and team served up delicious coco, cider and S'mores cooked over a campfire. The large draft horses were beautiful. We left with wonderful memories and a plan to come back again. A Great Colorado experience!!

Amazing ranch. Very clean. Pool is wow, way better than I could have imagined. Wifi is great coverage and the animals are so lovely! Great staff and fun activities. Will definitely come back. Steven

The owner is a complete asshole. She refused to tell me she was the owner when I asked to speak with the old owners. Then she proceeded to tell me she would "take down my info and have the owner get back to me". Really cute speaking in 3rd person when someone's trying to help out your business.

Wonderful week long get away.Peaceful with great horseback riding, evening fire pit was perfect! Not crowded with people. Beautiful surroundings and views. Staff went out of their way to accommodate all of our needs. Highly recommend this place. We will be back.

The Horseback riding was a great experience. Jackie got us geared up to ride JT and Rose. We learned all about the ranch during our ride. We had a great time thanks to Jackie for her guidance. We would definitely return for another ride or taking lessons.

Lodging was great, beautiful scenery, staffing at the ranch was good. Horseback ride was the worst I've ever experienced, Including the guides getting lost multiple times, poor communication between the guides, no guide was appointed as the leader, total lack of instruction before starting the ride, no helmets offered for the teenagers on the ride. A member of our party got injured when their horse went down, and they did not appear to have any emergency procedures in place, and they didn't even have any type of a first aid kit with them on the ride. In addition, part of our group had to ride back in the dark to the ranch and the guides appeared to be lost once again. The entire process was unprofessional and not safe. We will not be returning.

First the good:Beautiful location, clean, well maintained grounds, plenty of hiking, biking, moto trails. Easy access for large RVs, dump station on site, plus a couple shower houses.The bad:AVOID their horseback rides, especially with children. Safety does not seem to be a high priority at all and a child in our group was bitten by one of their horses while saddling up. We later learned that this particular horse is one of a few 'known problem horses' that they still choose to use in group rides. After the incident the staff didn't offer any first-aid assistance (not even an ice pack) but instead 'generously' offered to walk the child back to camp and waive the cancellation fee for his individual ride since he was in too much pain to continue.
