Snow Mountain Ranch YMCA

YMCA of the Rockies, Snow Mountain Ranch near Granby, Colorado was a great place for us to spend a couple of weeks while visiting friends. The Y has cabins, yurts, and primitive and developed campsites. Some of the developed campsites have electricity, some electricity and water, and a few full hookups. The campground is dirt with little privacy between most of the sites, but great views of the surrounding mountains. The bathhouse is old, but very well taken care of by the volunteer caretakers. There is a nice commom area with picnic tables, umbrellas for shade, and very busy bird feeders and hummingbird feeders. The staff is welcoming and friendly and the campground volunteers are some of the best we've come across. The Y offers a variety of activities included in the camp fee and publishes a weekly schedule of activities. We enjoyed the Y's hiking trails, excellent disc golf course, and introduction to pickleball. They have lots of activities for kids. While the campground lacks spacing and privacy, the beautiful setting, great staff, and variety of activities made for a memorable stay.

There is no better campsite with kids. There is so much to do including a climbing wall, craft center, zip lining, mini golf, hiking and biking all on property and pretty much everything is biking distance with dedicated bike trails to get there. Some items are included in the price and others are a small fee. The trails around this camp are so beautiful.

With kids this place gets 10 stars. No kids, probably 4 stars because the showers have bet little hot water before they run out.

We stayed here and went I to the west entrance to Rocky Mountain for day trips.
