Enjoy the natural beauty of Sylvan Dale Ranch – a 3,200-acre horse and cattle ranch with the Big Thompson River running through the middle. During your retreat, we are the only guests at the ranch, so you can fully immerse yourself in the peace and quiet of wide-open spaces, free of distractions.
Once you arrive at the ranch, we invite you to disconnect from your everyday life and enjoy the opportunity to take deep breaths, spend time in nature, and gain a fresh perspective.
Each morning, we’ll meet in the private outdoor horse arena for Equine Coaching Sessions until lunch time. Please wear your cowboy boots, bring a hat, sunglasses and a journal and pen and wear warm layers (Colorado mornings can be brisk!).
The arena offers a splendid combination of sun and shade to keep you comfortable while connecting with our beautiful herd of horses.
After our morning Equine Coaching Sessions, we’ll head to the main lodge for a healthy, homemade lunch. The afternoon is yours with many activities to choose from – like a trail ride, group horseback riding lesson, hike, pool time, or a nap! If you signed up for the VIP retreat Package, please click here for more info on your 1:1 Session. The evenings offer a fun social hour outside the dining hall. Happy hour (whether you enjoy a cocktail, or not) is a great time to catch up with new friends and swap stories about the day’s events.
After happy hour, we’ll then enjoy a healthy dinner, followed by an optional activity each evening – for example, one night is a group line dancing lesson, and another night is our signature “Create Your Vision Workshop.”
As the evening winds down, you’ll revel in quiet time sleeping in your private cabin, listening to the peaceful sounds from the river. The beautiful backdrop and serene setting are the perfect environment for you to unplug, reset, and restore with time for you.
You’ll treasure the memories made with horses, new friends, and yourself during this life-changing Colorado adventure.
