Planning a faraway, week-long summer vacation for the entire family may not sound relaxing, or even feasible, this year. If you find yourself sharing that sentiment, consider planning a quick staycation that can be enjoyed over a weekend. Here are five experiences to explore right here in Colorado.

Rawah Guest Ranch
Explore the Northern Colorado wilderness at this authentic luxury guest ranch. At Rawah, you and your family will get the all-inclusive experience. There are multiple cabins to choose from, offering one to two-bedroom options. If relaxation is on the must-do for you, you can even indulge in a massage at the Hideout. During the day, the entire family can explore the grounds, enjoying horseback riding, fly fishing, hiking, shooting and archery. However, the Ranch’s gourmet dining–serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner–is a highlight for guests. rawahranch.com
