Special events with event site fees are in addition to our pricing. Please inquire with your group coordinator about applicable costs.
We will continue to offer private activities, but space them out to ensure we can clean all the gear and sanitize it before every activity. Our Sharecare Health Security Verification with Forbes Travel Guide requires that we maintain every precaution to keep guests and staff safe.
Due to spacing of activity start times and sanitation of our extensive included equipment, each day we will include one guided activity and one nature-based activity. We have added 11 new guided or self-guided activities to ensure families will be able to explore further than ever before while creating space and time for proper sanitation and social distancing protocols for guided activities. For example, you might enjoy horseback riding in the morning and then sapphire mining, disc golf, hiking or Respite on Rock Creek in the afternoon.
We have staggered our start times for activities so that we can control the number of people in the Rod & Gun Club. Most fittings will be done at the site of the activity. We ask that you abide by start times for the safety of our staff and guests.
Per CDC recommendation, masks are recommended for unvaccinated guests in all indoor spaces and outdoor areas where 6 feet of space cannot be maintained. Our vaccinated employees are not required to wear masks indoors or outdoors, but may choose to wear them if they are more comfortable doing so. Employees are required to wear masks in vehicles going off property, such as airport transfers and off-ranch excursions.
We can accommodate guests who would prefer to have staff wear masks in their presence. Please relay this request to your group coordinator during the pre-booking process.

Common areas are disinfected throughout the day and between use by guests.
The Rod & Gun Club encourages guests to bring their own hiking boots, hats, gloves and other soft items to reduce the need to sanitize fabric items. Equipment fittings will be done at the activity location to reduce the number of people in the Rod & Gun Club. Staggered start times will also reduce crowding.
We ensure full sanitization services between room stays, including new COVID-19 protocols that have been part of our practice since reopening June 1, 2020. Our Sharecare Health Security Verification with Forbes Travel Guide is further proof that every precaution is maintained to keep guests and staff safe.
