🏕️ WOW… we only have 5 full hookup RV sites left for Labor Day Weekend!

And these aren’t just any camping spots. ❤️

These pull-through sites give you beautiful views toward Rocky Mountain National Park right from your campsite.

☕ Wake up, pour your coffee and watch the sun come up over the Rockies from your chair or while having breakfast at your picnic table.

🌲 Want a little adventure? You’ll be close to On The Trail ATV Rentals, where you can head out into the Arapaho National Forest and spend the day exploring mountain trails and incredible views.

And here’s one of our favorite little secrets… 🤫🫎

The moose sometimes wander in during the evenings to munch on the grass around Wapiti Lily Pond. Imagine ending your day sitting outside your RV and spotting one nearby. ❤️

Only 5 full hookup RV sites are left for Labor Day Weekend, so if you’ve been thinking about a last-minute mountain getaway, this is your sign!🤠

There’s just something special about experiencing the Colorado River from horseback. 🐴

The sound of the water, your horse carefully making its way across, and those beautiful Rocky Mountain views surrounding you…it’s one of those moments you’ll remember long after the ride is over.

Come experience it for yourself at Winding River Resort!

We offer 1-hour and 2-hour horseback trail rides through some beautiful country right here in Grand Lake, Colorado.

And with the first hints of fall starting to show, it’s an especially beautiful time to ride. 🍂

Labor Day weekend is almost here, and the mountains are already giving us a little preview of fall. 🍂🐴

Come experience Winding River Resort from horseback!

Cross the river, follow the trails through the aspens and trees, ride into beautiful mountain meadows and take in those Colorado views while the first fall colors begin to appear.

We have 1-hour and 2-hour trail rides available for Labor Day weekend, but spots are filling up!🤠

If a horseback ride with views of the Colorado Rocky Mountains has been on your list, this is a pretty great weekend to do it.

Work Camper Spotlight: Grant & Michelle Abercrombie 🤠

Meet Grant and Michelle Abercrombie, two of the wonderful people who help keep Winding River Resort looking beautiful and welcoming for our guests!

Grant and Michelle raised their boys in Canon City, Colorado. After selling their home, they traded it for life on the road, moved into their RV and found their way to us here in Grand Lake.

You’ll find them helping with the grounds and keeping our shower houses clean and ready for our guests. And in their words, “We love this beautiful area.” ❤️

We are so thankful for Grant and Michelle and for ALL of our incredible work campers! It truly takes a team to keep everything running, and we’re fortunate to have a group that works so well together, helps one another and takes pride in making Winding River Resort a special place for everyone who visits.

Thank you, Grant and Michelle, for everything you do! And a big thank you to our entire work camping crew. We appreciate you more than you know! ❤️🏔️🤠

A little piece of history is waiting for you inside the barn. 🤠

Before or after you head out on a horse trail ride, take a few minutes to wander through our Carriage Museum and check out the beautiful carriages from days gone by. There’s so much history tucked away here at Winding River Resort, and the museum is a fun stop for the whole family.

If you’re in Grand Lake, come visit us! You don’t have to be staying at the resort to stop by and explore.

Come for the horses, stay awhile, and discover a little history along the way. ❤️

🍂 Fall is beginning to show itself in Grand Lake… and the Wi******er Cabin has a few September openings!

If you’ve been thinking about a cozy mountain getaway, this may be the perfect time. The leaves are starting to turn, the mornings are getting a little crisper, and our handcrafted Wi******er Cabin is available:

September 8–17
September 21–26

The Wi******er has all the rustic character you’d hope for in a mountain cabin, with plenty of comforts waiting inside. Gather around the beautiful river-rock gas fireplace after a day exploring, cook dinner together in the full kitchen, and settle in for a quiet evening away from it all.

The cabin sleeps up to 6 guests with:
🍁 One bedroom with a queen bed
🍁 Loft with one full-size bed and two twin beds
🍁 Full kitchen with stove, oven, microwave and refrigerator
🍁 Full private bathroom and shower
🍁 Linens, pots, pans and dishes provided
🍁 Patio, picnic table and fire ring

And no satellite or cable TV—which might just be one of the best parts. 😉 Trade a little screen time for mountain time.

These are just a few photos of this one-of-a-kind cabin, and it has so much character to experience in person.

Who has stayed in this cabin before? Share your experiences in the comments. We love to hear your stories. 🤠

Come enjoy the beginning of fall in Grand Lake, Colorado, right across from Rocky Mountain National Park. The colors will only get better from here! 🍂🏔️

Reserve the Wi******er Cabin for your September getaway while these dates are still available!

There’s something pretty special about seeing just how gentle these big guys really are. 🤠

After another fun family wagon ride, our lady wranglers hopped on Bob and Barney ba****ck to take them back out to pasture, with nothing more than a halter and lead rope for reins.

For horses this big and powerful, Bob and Barney are incredibly soft-hearted, kind and full of personality. They work hard pulling our wagon and seem to enjoy being part of all the memories being made here at Winding River Resort.

And a big thank you to our wonderful lady wranglers who care for our horses, work alongside them every day and make moments like these look so easy. We appreciate everything you do behind the scenes to keep our horses happy, cared for and loved. ❤️

Just another evening at Winding River Resort in Grand Lake, Colorado, right across from Rocky Mountain National Park, where sometimes the ride back to pasture is just as special as the wagon ride itself.

Tomorrow morning starts with breakfast… and you might just leave with a new little friend. 🤠

Join us for Chuckwagon Breakfast at the Pavilion tomorrow morning from 8:00–9:30 AM, then wander over to the Winding River Resort store and check out one of the latest things the kids have been LOVING — Wigglitz!

These fun little sensory figures have quickly become a campground favorite. Kids are picking out their favorites, giving them names, carrying them around in their pockets and comparing their collections with new friends around the resort. ❤️

And as you can see… there are LOTS of little characters to choose from!

So after breakfast, stop by the store and let the kids see if there’s a Wigglitz that needs to come along on the rest of their Winding River adventure.

Chuckwagon Breakfast
Saturday | 8:00–9:30 AM
At the Pavilion

Then come see us in the store!
