Summer Kids Day Camps
Just for the Kids!
Summer horsemanship camp at Bearcat Stables
9am-3:30pm
$200/each
8-12 years old
The day will begin at 9 am with the kids learning how to brush the horses and prepare them for a ride! They will learn about the different parts of the saddle and equipment used for trail riding. After the horses are saddled up, our knowledgeable wrangler staff will lead a 1.5 hour gentle nose to tail ride through Bearcat Stables property and the Cordillera trail network. Each child will get to ride their own horse! Bearcat will provide 2 guides on each ride for safety and instruction. Wildlife sightings are common- mule deer, birds of prey, and elk can be seen any given day. The trails go through meadows of wildflowers and explore a few aspen groves. A stop at the top of the trail will allow a picture of the kids with their horses and views of the valley below and beyond! Once back at the stables the kids will give the horses a drink and treat, before heading to lunch from the Smiling Moose Deli. After lunch additional horseman ship will be taught including parts of the horse, what they are sensitive to, favorite foods and much more. Roping lessons and yard games will be played and each child will get to paint a souvenir horseshoe as a keepsake!
Children 8-12 years old are invited to participate in our camps. To sign up or for more information call 970.376.4647

March 26th Closing Day for 2016 Winter Season
CLOSING DAY FOR THE WINTER SEASON
MARCH 26TH
Thank you all to everyone that came out to see us this winter season. It's not over yet, so if you have been meaning to make it out to the stables for a sleigh ride and dinner you have until March 26th to come out and see why we are the Vail Valley's Best Sleigh Ride and Dinner!
The 2015/2016 winter season was our 4th year offering the sleigh ride and dinner experience at Bearcat's Cabin and was our best year to date! For the first time this winter season we offered all of our catering with the Timberhearth Grill at the Club at Cordillera! Our guests raved about the new menu and our repeat guests were more delighted with this winter's offering. A big thank you to the entire crew at the THG and wishing Chef Rigo a speedy recovery!
Driving our sleighs Nicole Godley had got her inaugural season under her belt. She did an awesome leading her team! Gavin Selway was also behind the wheel, providing our guests with plenty of entertainment, and we even saw Leeds Butcher get up and take the reigns a few nights.

Engagements Galore! We had a record number of proposals take place with us at Bearcat Stables on our private sleigh, and we even had an entire family join in on our shared sleigh for a proposal. For a proposal that is filled with romance and will be unforgettable! Check out our engagement packages for winter and summer
Meet the Percheron's
All of our sleigh horses at Bearcat Stables are Percheron Draft horses. Originating from Le Perch France this breed is known for its strength, stability and willingness to work!
Frank and Jesse- brothers 8 and 9 years old
Named after 2 of America's most famous outlaws of the Wild West- Frank and Jesse James
Weighing in at approximately 2000lbs each
These 2 party animals are our staple team on the ranch, and these 2 get out to work nearly every night. Frank likes to take the lead, while gentle Jesse is all about controlling the sleigh and putting on the breaks when you are heading down hill.
Warren:

Wyatt- The Sheriff of this corral!
- Approx 10 years old
- tipping the scales at over 2000lbs
- Named after Wyatt Earp
Wyatt does it all when it comes to pulling sleighs for us. His gentle demeanor and drive to work, makes him the perfect fit for the private sleigh. Wyatt has been helping us with our sleigh rides since we opened. We always joke that with Wyatt you don't even need a wrangler, he knows the sleigh course so well he could do it with his eyes closed.
Warren:
Both approx. 11 years
Warren Earp, was the youngest Earp brother, and had played deputy alongside brother Wyatt
Warren is HUGE! He is the largest Percheron we have had working for us, but don't let Warren's size intimidate you, he's really a gentle giant!

Family Fun in the Vail Valley
The Vail Valley attracts families from all over the world to ski and snowboard Vail and Beaver Creek, 2 of North Americas most boasted about ski resorts. Parents hit the slopes all day and send the kids to ski school, everyone gets to experience skiing and riding at its best! But we all know you came to the Vail to experience a family vacation, and finding activities that the entire family can participate in can be tricky. Your family may not all be expert skiers, the kids might be too young for snowmobiling adventures, and maybe the grandparents have accompanied the vacation and they do not ski. For those of you looking for family fun, you can all do together on your family vacation think Bearcat's Cabin!
Bearcat's Cabin sleigh ride and dinner experience is perfect for families of all ages. We do have any age or ability restrictions, just a fun experience for everyone. Our sleigh rides start right as the apres scene is getting going, but you can't take your kids to hang out in a bar while you sip back on a few frosty brews! Come on out for a sleigh ride with us, and we promise you can still get your frosty brew with us, or try one of our signature cocktails- I recommend the Cowboy Handwarmer.
If Apres Ski is not your thing, but a soak in the hot tub is, then try us out for dinner! We offer 2 nightly seating's at 5:30 and 7:30, each start with a 25 minute sleigh ride. Once you are back from the sleigh ride and taking pictures with our wonderful team of horses enter a piece of Colorado history in Bearcat's Cabin. A 3 course world class dinner is prepared by the Timberhearth Grill and offers a healthy selection that is sure to please everyone. Our children's menu will delight and you don't want to miss the mac n cheese- we see all you kids at heart taking a heaping scoop of the cheesy goodness- and we're glad you do!
