Destination Granby
Conveniently located at the intersection of Highways 34 and 40, Granby is literally the commercial and tourist crossroads of Grand County.  Originally founded to service the newly built railroad, the town has long served as a commercial and service area for local farmers and ranchers.  Today, the town’s central location makes it an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area, which includes the lakes and forest lands of the Arapaho National Recreation Area and National Forest.  The town is home to many services and retail businesses, including a supermarket, medical clinic, drug store, River Run RV Resort, Granby Ranch, hunting/sporting goods, laundromat, train station, library, banks, schools, motels, and restaurants.  Granby is also known as the “Dude Ranch Capital of the USA” for its concentration of dude and guest ranches featuring everything from rugged lodges to posh resort-style accommodations.


River Run RV Resort
Opened in July 2019, River Run Resort provides visitors with a new way to experience Colorado. The property, part of the Signature Sun RV Resort collection, is committed to providing guests with elevated resort amenities no matter how they choose to travel. River Run will offer a variety of unique lodging styles including furnished mountain cottages, glamping accommodations, RV and camping facilities. Situated in Granby along the headwaters of the Colorado River, in a valley below the Arapahoe National Forest and Rocky Mountain National Park this upscale mountain retreat offers unparalleled year-round access to the Northern Colorado Rockies. Guests will have access to a variety of onsite amenities to keep them entertained and well-fed without ever leaving the property, including fishing, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, mini-bowling, pool, spa services, a tavern, an events center, and more set against spectacular views of the Continental Divide.
