STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo., Nov. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Marabou Ranch – a premier luxury ranch in the heart of Colorado's Yampa Valley – is gearing up for another fantastic ski season at Steamboat Ski Resort.
Famous for its "Champagne Powder," Steamboat Ski Resort is scheduled to open for the 2018-2019 season on Wednesday, Nov. 21st. Steamboat offers nearly 3,000 acres of terrain on 165 trails, welcoming skiers & snowboarders of all skill levels - from young families to those seeking Double Black Diamond runs.
Located just five miles outside of the town of Steamboat Springs, Marabou Ranch features homesites of at least five acres for sale priced starting at $1.5 million, all with sweeping Colorado panoramas.
Marabou Ranch owners can enjoy private access to the Mountain Camp, which located at the base of Steamboat's Mount Werner next to the main gondola. The Mountain Camp is an ideal gathering place to gear up for the day with ski lockers featuring boot dryers, a full bar and a roaring fire place.
Marabou Ranch also offers owners the opportunity to ski & snowboard with their professional team of four Winter Master Guides, who can help you tackle everything from beginner runs to finding secret powder stashes.
"Marabou Ranch has a fantastic relationship with Steamboat Ski Resort and it is really unique that this is the only private guide program that they allow on the mountain," said Master Guide Nelson Carmichael, a two-time U.S. Olympic team member and Bronze medalist for Mogul skiing. "Marabou offers an exclusive opportunity to experience Steamboat with champion skiers who really know the mountain and understand the conditions. Our focus is always on finding the best terrain for the group for that day."
Erin Simmons Nemec – a three-time Silver medalist in the Winter X Games and a member of the 2006 Canadian Olympic team – has been snowboarding with Marabou owners for more than a decade. She especially loves taking experienced skiers and snowboarders on the steep terrain off of Steamboat's Pony Express lift.
"My favorite part of working with Marabou is really developing the long-term relationships, I'm getting excited to see everyone again this winter," she said. "Steamboat is such a great mountain because it has terrain for all abilities - you can please the people who want to hike to the steep stuff, but there is also a lot of mellow terrain perfect for a family ski day."
The community gathering place at Marabou Ranch is the River House Lodge, which features a gourmet kitchen and a dining room that seats 40, the Dead Horse Saloon, a Billiards Room and an expansive patio with fire pits. Other amenities include the Downstream Spa, the zero-entry kid-friendly Rivers Edge Pool with two hot tubs and a Fitness Center with cardio machines, kinesis strength equipment and free weights.
All owners at Marabou Ranch can enjoy four weeks of lodging each year at the Owners' Cabins, six luxuriously appointed retreats that are available for use only by property owners and their guests.
Marabou Ranch also offers world-class fly fishing on more than two miles of private waters on Colorado's renowned Elk River, along with 10 still-water fisheries and access to more than 100-miles of private and public Northwestern Colorado water. Equestrians can enjoy Marabou Ranch's 20 miles of private trails and extensive Western horse training program.
