"Spa vacations, and dude ranches with spas, are growing as health-conscious dudes and guests want to get away from the work place to escape and relax in pursuit of rest, fitness, invigoration, rejuvenation – in their quest for better health – both mental and physical. Today millions of city dude ranch vacationers are looking to Spa Dude Ranches to fulfill their dreams of being a cowboy or cowgirl and enjoy the peace; "wellness" and pampering that go hand in hand with active and passive spa vacations. Some Spa dude ranches offer luxury pampering, weight management, massage and aroma therapy, spiritual awareness, stress control, herbal and holistic wraps, nutritional programs and special diets that feature low fat healthy foods for all, prevention and body conditioning. One of the real added benefits of Spa Dude Ranch Vacations is the natural beauty and the surroundings that make each of these dude and spa ranches so unique and special. While there are many dude ranch vacations that offer massage and limited spa programs there are only a handful of Dude Ranch Spa Vacations that truly offer many of the programs and features that traditional spas offer. Be sure to check with each dude ranch and inquire of the level of spa treatments that they feature in addition to the horseback riding, fishing, hiking and children’s programs they may offer." --

Our Location
Neither the impossible beauty of the drive beside the West Fork of the Dolores River, the road perched above haunting beaver ponds nor the dancing light through the aspen groves prepares you for the first sight of Dunton Hot Springs. A Ghost Town so lovingly restored,
so honestly weathered, nestling beneath the glistening snow fields of the San Juan peaks.
Our Cabins
Each of Dunton's guest cabins is an authentic, nineteenth century, hand-hewn log building, restored by local and Native American craftsmen who specialize in traditional building techniques. Although no two are alike, each bears a distinct individual character and history. All are
furnished with custom luxury amenities, and reveal splendid views that change throughout the day with the shifting colors of sunlight on the mountains. All are less than five minutes walk to the bar, dining area, and adjoining conference facility of the saloon, the hot springs in the teepee and bath house, massage and yoga
rooms in the Pony Express Spa, the bank of the West Fork of the Dolores, the waterfall, and the library. Some cabins have direct feeds from geothermal springs.
Our Cuisine
Use everything we grow ourselves, at our farm and vineyard, comb our local farmers markets, buy meat from our neighbors, gather the mountain's bounty of wild mushrooms, chanterelles and boletos, and then subscribe to a farm network that gathers food from every corner of the Colorado
Plateau. That's what we do, and it tells you precisely our Chef's priorities. Finally, cook it as carefully as possible and serve it as elegantly as you are able. Everyone eats at one of our long, old tables but that doesn't mean that we will not meet your dietary concerns and needs. We even pack up the most wonderful picnics for
your fishing trips, hikes, horse expeditions or the shady mountain meadow you have picked out.
Our Spa
At our Pony Express Spa, we invite you to experience the very best in holistic and therapeutic healing techniques - from Trager Therapy to hot rocks massage. From pedicures to mineral mud wraps. From reflexology to expert yoga instruction. We specialize in natural cosmetic
treatments and our luxurious facilities promote the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation, including Yoga Retreats and Spa Packages.
