There is an authentic dude ranch out west where the Colorado River runs off the Continental Divide and winds its way through mountain valleys. It’s a land of green meadows, blue skies, and clean air. This is Colorado ranch country, and has been for over 100 years. Things have changed some since the early days, but the history of horseback riding, fly fishing and Colorado family vacations remain a stronghold of tradition that passes down from one generation to the next. Since 1919 The C Lazy U guest ranch has been celebrated around the world for its rich history, rustic elegance, legendary cuisine and impeccable service. There is something (and then some) for everyone who enjoys luxury guest ranch. Corporate retreats enjoy teambuilding, bonding, productive meetings and fun activities. Adults can do everything they want, or nothing at all at this all-inclusive ranch as a simple and secluded retreat location destination.

What began as a small restaurant in a former garage frequented by those ‘in the know’ has, after more than thirty years, won nearly every culinary award and accolade, and attracted a devoted following from around the world. This success owes as much to Chef/Proprietor Patrick O’Connell’s unforgettable culinary wizardry as to the warm, professional yet personal welcome that guests receive at The Inn at Little Washington, both in the restaurant and in the 24 luxuriously appointed guest rooms and cottages. Through the years The Inn at Little Washington is fortunate to have been honored with numerous awards and distinctions: The esteemed 116 year old Michelin Guide launched its first ever guide to Washington DC in October 2016. The legendary Inn at Little Washington has been awarded three stars – the only restaurant in the DC area to earn this distinction. The 2016 Forbes Travel Guide (formerly known as the Mobil Travel Guide) for the 26th year in a row, awarded The Inn at Little Washington’s accommodations its highest accolade – Five Stars. The 2016 Forbes Travel Guide also awarded The Inn at Little Washington’s Restaurant Five Stars for the 25th year in a row making it one of only 40 restaurants in the U.S. to hold this distinction. The American Automobile Association for 2017 once again bestowed its highest accolade – The Five Diamond Award -- on The Inn at Little Washington Restaurant for the 29th consecutive year making it the longest tenured restaurant in the history of the program. AAA also awarded The Inn at Little Washington’s accommodations Five Diamonds for the 27th consecutive year. Andrew Harper’s Hideaway 2016 Reader’s Choice Award for the Top 20 Getaways ranked The Inn #4 in the United States. Patrick O’Connell was selected for Le Chef Magazine’s Top 100 Chef’s in the World list and is one of only 10 American chefs included.
