For sixty plus years, Lost Valley Ranch has been well-loved by generations of guests and staff. And the truth is: our infrastructure shows it. After a thorough professional inspection of all ranch buildings, it became obvious that most of our structures were well past the point of simple renovation, and that none of them would take us to our ultimate goal: to keep the heart and soul of Lost Valley going for another sixty plus years!
We know this news is very disappointing to anyone who was hoping to cross our cattle guard in the summer or fall of 2027. We could not agree with you more. When you love the ranch as much as we do, it hurts to hit the “pause” button. And while we will miss being together in 2027, we look forward to welcoming you back to your ranch home for another sixty plus years of awesome staff, fun traditions, thrilling rides, unplugged joy, and feeling maybe just a little bit closer to heaven at Lost Valley Ranch! OOOO-AAAAH!!!

From Fall 2026 through early 2028, this next phase of renovation will begin in the very center of the ranch. Initially, we thought that being shut down for only two seasons would be enough to welcome you back. However, now that we understand better the degree of construction required, it is clear we must fully complete this central phase without guests or staff on property. Attempting otherwise would be too unsafe and too disruptive to your normal experience of the ranch.

No. We will still have other projects that will continue as we work on perimeter areas of the ranch. We do not plan on any further complete shutdowns being required.
-
Yes! We will reach out first to our Spring 2026, Summer 2026, and Fall 2025 guests with the opportunity to re-book your same dates and cabins for 2028.
-
If you joined us for Fall 2025, Spring 2026 or Summer 2026: you'll have first right of refusal for the same cabin and same dates in 2028, meaning we'll offer you that spot before it's opened up to anyone else. We'll be in touch in mid-2027 to confirm your interest. This includes if you visited during Labor Day 2025, our Specialty Weeks in 2025, Thanksgiving 2025, or Summer 2026.
If you'd like to book with us for 2028 and weren't with us during one of those stays: please submit an inquiry through our Check Availability form to join our waitlist, and we'll reach out mid-2027 as availability opens up.
