The Bunk House Experience at Dragon Ranch
**Brand New Home Just Built** **Visit to our Historic Working Ranch Included with Stay** *** Ranch puppies just born! (4/19) Come meet them!***
Welcome to The Bunkhouse at Dragon Ranch! Our brand new picturesque 1 bedroom/1 bathroom house is a lake front home located in the mountains of Black Hawk, Colorado. The home adjoins our historic working family ranch which you will be able to visit during your stay if you would like. At this home you will be greeted with incredible views of the Lake, groves of aspen trees, and of course the mountains. The property sits just feet away from the community lake with breathtaking views. The large deck that looks out over the lake offers the chance to sit outside and enjoy the fresh mountain air and a chance to enjoy the night skies full of brilliant constellations whether it’s a cold winter night or a fresh summer evening.
If you peek out your back windows you can see Dragon Ranch and several of the animals that you can come meet.
THE SURROUNDINGS
The property sits in front of a private community lake with breathtaking views which offer a variety of activities. Enjoy the night skies full of brilliant constellations from a large deck with a pellet grill, plenty of seating, and a propane fire pit.
THE AMENITIES
The living room is cozy, comfortable and includes a sleeper sofa, fireplace, and large flat screen TV. Facing south the Bunkhouse provides beautiful natural light all year through the numerous picture windows. The west side of the house looks out into a huge mature aspen grove.
The bedroom with a queen bed is spacious and looks out over the lake. The beautiful bathroom includes a full size washer and dryer.
The Bunkhouse kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and of course Black Rifle Coffee each morning because we are veterans, and we support our veterans.
We tried to capture the classic western lifestyle with our décor. Most of our décor includes photographs and items from the Ranch.
HEADING INTO TOWN
The Bunkhouse is only a few miles from the City of Black Hawk and Central City which offer casinos, restaurants and a variety of other activities. The area is only a 45 minute drive to Denver, or 30 minutes to the fun western town of Golden. Eldora ski area is just 8.4 miles away!
An AWD or four-wheel drive vehicle will be required during the winter months. As we live at the adjoining ranch, we will be there to plow and shovel snow, or take care of any needs you have.
