LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION.

The Blackstone Rivers Ranch location on the Rocky Mountain Front Range is perfectly situated just 35 minutes west of Denver, while feeling like it’s a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is 3 miles south of the quaint little mountain town of Idaho Springs – where the Colorado Gold Rush began! At 8,200 feet above sea level, we’re still lowlander friendly. =)

The ranch can be found on Chicago Creek Road, also known as Highway 103 – the road that leads to Mt. Evans. Many of the design decisions for the ranch pay homage to Idaho Springs’ rich and exciting Colorado history, and is evident in its interior finishes, architecture, furnishings, landscape, various outdoor spaces and building names.

HISTORY

Blackstone Rivers Ranch’s story began like many do in the heart of the Rockies. It was the WILD WEST! The property was first explored for gold and silver mining, along with logging operations in the 1800’s. The ranch then served as a working llama ranch in the mid-1900s. Today, the ranch encompasses 22 acres and is family-owned and operated. It has become home to the Betz family and their furry friends. The Betzs have worked to create a place of love, relaxation and wonder. They care deeply about this magical place, and are involved in every single part of the operation. They meet every client personally, and oversee each event. It is their dream and they are so happy to be sharing it with their guests. They have devoted many years to creating what will become one of the premier destinations for discerning brides, music aficionados, business executives, and party-goers in the region.
