Plan Your Visit – Make Granby Ranch Your Home

You won’t get this authentic Colorado experience anywhere else with rustic parade charm, hometown rodeos, family bike rides, and explosive fireworks. Everything about this weekend celebrates small-town Colorado. Most events are free! Rodeos and color runs have fees, but you can take in almost everything else at no cost. Between events Granby Ranch makes the perfect home base, relax on a scenic chairlift ride, mountain bike trails, or just sip a cold drink with breathtaking views.

Parade of Homes: Saturday & Sunday, July 5–6

Hosted at the Granby Ranch Homes Sales Office, this is your chance to explore beautifully designed homes right where the action happens. Let our home expert, Sheila Bailey, guide you on tours of cozy condos to mountain-modern townhomes and single-family retreats.
