WELCOME TO DRAGON RANCH

Luxury Lakefront Living on a Working Colorado Ranch

Dragon Ranch sits on the shores of Dory Lake in the mountains of Black Hawk, Colorado. Our four lakefront homes blend luxury finishes with genuine mountain character. Wake to lake views, spend your days kayaking, fishing, or hiking Golden Gate Canyon State Park, then return to a hot tub under the stars. Stays at the Ranch House include a guided visit to meet our Turkish Boz guardian dogs, longhorns, Kunekune pigs, and miniature horses. We are proud Airbnb Superhosts and Top 1% rated properties. Whether you are planning a family adventure, a couples retreat, or a group getaway, Dragon Ranch delivers an experience you will not find anywhere else this close to Denver.

“By far one of the best Airbnbs we have ever stayed in, and we have been to a bunch all over including internationally.”

— Alfred, Airbnb Guest
