Snow Mountain Ranch has several dining options and one of the favorite for families is the Buckboard Grille and Grocery that is located at the end of the administration building where families check in.? The Grille is decorated with a Studebaker Buckboard, and hence the name ?Buckboard Grille and Grocery?.? Pictures and memorabilia decorate the wall of the Grille and tell the story of the original Just Ranch which The YMCA of the Rockies purchased from the Just family in 1965. With the purchase of the Ranch, the Y inherited a rich history of not just the family, but of the ranching history of Grand County.
Greg Bassett is a seasonal supervisor at the Grille and he says, ?Families find a welcome respite here in the Grille while visiting the Ranch.? We have a diverse menu that includes sandwiches, ice cream, hamburgers and groceries.? The family atmosphere is enhanced by family board games and outdoor seating on our patio and porch.? There are hummingbirds feeding on the porch.? Don?t forget to stop by and try our Snow Mountain Ranch famous milkshakes.? Once you have one you will be back for another.?
Carol Boyce has been manager of the Grille for the past three years.? Carol comes to us at Snow Mountain Ranch with a rich background of working in many different National Parks and from corporate management.?? Carol said that she believes the Buckboard Grille has one of the best and least expensive burgers in Grand County, and having had a burger at the Grille I have to agree with her.? I sampled the milkshakes, which are made the old fashioned way and are topped with a huge glob of whipping cream.? The decadent chocolate shake is addictive and people come in again and again to repeat the delightful experience.
Carol shares, ?I am still impressed when I go on the Grille?s back porch, see the beautiful flowers with the hummingbirds drinking their nectar, and have an awesome view of the Indian Peaks Range and the continental divide.?
The Buckboard Grille also has a small grocery for the campground and other guests.? They stock the store with a variety of food items, condiments, toiletries, medicines, ice and other sundries.? If you are looking for a snack or a drink, this is the place for you.
The Grille has a large screen TV and guests gather at the Grille to watch sports events together. Lisa Linder states, ?It is really fun to come into the Grille when a major sporting event is occurring.? A few weeks ago it was the International Soccer Play Offs and we had international staff and guests from Spain that were all in here rooting for Spain to win.? With the Olympics starting soon, the Grille will be a popular gathering place for guests and staff to enjoy a hamburger and milkshake and sweet potato fries while enjoying the Olympics?.
The Wei and Chen families, originally from Taiwan and now from New York City and Denver, were enjoying a family reunion with three generations here at Snow Mountain Ranch.? They stopped in the Grille to have lunch and some of the family ate in the dining room and the rest of the family was enjoying the outdoor patio.
Another family stopped by the Grille to check their e-mail as the Grille has free Wi-Fi.? They were also enjoying their free cup of coffee, which is available 24 hours a day.
Stop by the Grille on your visit to Snow Mountain Ranch and say hello to our friendly international staff, order a burger and a shake, check your e-mail over a free cup of coffee and then head back to the Program Department to check out all the Ranch activities.
