Sundance Trail has a special quality … The feeling is “home”. We are a small guest ranch near Red Feather Lakes (37 miles northwest of Fort Collins). We border Roosevelt National Forest and sit at 8,000 feet. All staff: cooks, dishwashers, wranglers, and housekeepers are here to serve our guests and to help them to relax, have fun and to make memories that will last a lifetime. We are one team helping people/families enjoy the outdoors, making memories together.

If you love the outdoors, meeting new people, working as a team, and have a willing attitude to do what it takes to make each of our guests feel right at home, Sundance Trail may be the place for you. We encourage all staff to eat with our guests. Meals are served family style. This is a time of fellowship and of course story-telling. We also encourage our staff to take breaks to enjoy the ranch. During breaks staff may tack up a horse and go for a ride, take a hike, join in with any guest activity, or enjoy one of the many hammocks.

Sundance Trail is open year-round. Summer is Dude ranch season and most ranch positions are from May through September, some may start as early as April and last through October. However, we offer each employee the opportunity to choose their precise employment dates. Our application and more information can be found on our website, https://www.sundancetrail.com/dude-ranch-jobs/ or email us.
