With Great pride North Fork has been welcoming families that quickly become friends into this small family oriented ranch & fishing lodge for 37 years! Only an hour from the Denver airport, sitting at 8,100 ft you will find a little of Colorado all in one spot! Grab your hat, pull on your boots or waders to explore what North Fork has to offer! The North Fork Ranch is an Orvis Endorsed fly fishing

lodge situated in a picturesque setting in the mountains of Colorado. The North Fork Ranch legend begins with our unique combination of ambiance, world class fishing, and unsurpassed hospitably. Take a minute to read through our reviews here and on the Orvis website! While we welcome other premier guide services of Colorado to bring their guests to stay at the ranch, the North Fork Ranch Guide Service (CO outfitter #2616) is always available to you for fishing while staying at the North Fork Ranch. Take a day to fish the legendary river at the ranch, but also let them take you to explore other premier private waters in the valley. Or let them take you to explore public water in the South Platte River drainage. If fly fishing isn’t your cup of tea we offer many other activities such as horseback riding, thrilling whitewater rafting (90min drive), zip lining (20 min drive), guided hikes into spectacular surrounding high country, trap & target shooting, and bow & arrow. Right off the back porch rests a mile of the North Fork of the South Platte River. Rejuvenate in our riverside heated pool and hot tub! No detail is overlooked. The ranch takes Great pride in feeding you well. You will find yourself surrounded by the aroma of bread baking, warm cookies each afternoon and hearty family dining with a gourmet flare. Special diets are easily accommodated by attentive staff. Don't forget to sit back & relax on your front porch counting stars or enjoy a glass of wine in front of a crackling fire in your cozy cabin. Enjoy the cool breeze as you rest and take in the western way of life. Hospitality is our passion. Join us where time is measured by the arc of the sun and the shadows of the mountains!
