Things to do near Ouray

Your Cabin isn’t just a cabin—it’s your gateway to Colorado fun. Ouray offers something in every season:

Summer adventures

Summer brings warm days and endless outdoor fun.
Spend your mornings hiking or biking local trails, afternoons kayaking or paddleboarding on Vallecito Lake, and evenings grilling dinner outside your cabin.
Fishing is especially popular this time of year, with plenty of opportunities around Vallecito Lake.

Fall getaways

When the crowds thin out, fall colors transform the valley.
Aspens turn gold and orange.
Hunters also find this season ideal, with easy access to the San Juan National Forest from your Cabin near Ouray.

Winter escapes

Winter is for skiers, snowboarders, and snow lovers.
With Purgatory and Wolf Creek ski resorts nearby, plus snowmobiling trails and a fully groomed Nordic track, your cabin becomes a basecamp for snow adventures.
Ice fishing is also popular from January through March, with tournaments that make the lake come alive in winter.

Spring is a season of renewal, perfect for older couples.
