When is the best time to go to Dalton Ranch?

The best time to visit Dalton Ranch is during the late spring to early autumn months, specifically from May to October, when the weather is most pleasant for outdoor activities. During these months, you'll experience warm, sunny days great for exploring the surrounding San Juan Mountains, golfing at the Dalton Ranch Golf Club, or enjoying horse riding. The lush green landscapes are at their peak, offering stunning scenery for hiking and photography. For those who enjoy a variety of outdoor pursuits, the summer months of June, July, and August are ideal. The full range of activities, from fly fishing to white-water rafting, is typically available, and the longer daylight hours allow for extended exploration. Families often find this period great for a holiday, with plenty of options to keep everyone entertained. Alternatively, if you prefer cooler temperatures and fewer crowds, late spring (May) and early autumn (September-October) are excellent choices. The autumn months, in particular, offer spectacular displays of golden aspen leaves, creating a beautiful backdrop for scenic drives and walks.

DoubleTree by Hilton Durango

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed overnight before catching our flight for the local airport. Lovely spacious old hotel overlooking the river. Quiet rooms despite it being hall-term and children staying. Mircowave and fridge. Close to the main street and large food shop very close by. Pleasent bar decorated in keeping the rest of the hotel decor, with good atmosphere and wide menu."

Adobe Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Quaint little motor inn. We were able to park right out front of our room. The Inn is Close to downtown and the River Walk that runs through Durango. we were Close enough to walk to many stores & local eateries. This place had a lodge-like atmosphere and very friendly staff. Felt very safe & was family friendly. Definitely would stay here again!"

Historic Strater Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful room with plenty of space. The antique furniture added to the vintage hotel. I do wish the rooms had coffee makers. I do appreciate they serve coffee and tea in the morning in the lobby. I really enjoyed that our room had two sinks, one in the bathroom and one in a vanity area. Everything is walking distance in the downtown area. We would stay here again."

The General Palmer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel filled with lovely antiques. Small rooms, but was expected given the age of the building; the beds were very comfortable. Staff were exceptional and offered amazing customer service! The breakfast selections were appreciated and fueled us for the day. The warm cookies offered in the afternoon were an unexpected surprise."
