Sky Village: A Glimpse into Ancient Elegance
Sky Village is a recent addition to the Canyon of the Ancients Guest Ranch’s lodging offerings, situated in the ranch’s northern section. Comprising two new guesthouses, Sky Kiva and Star Tower, these dwellings seamlessly blend with the canyon landscape, reminiscent of ancient structures.
The Sky Village project draws its inspiration from ancient ruins scattered across the Colorado Plateau, including iconic sites like Mesa Verde, Canyons of the Ancients National Monument, Hovenweep National Monument, Chaco Canyon, and Bears Ears. Classic architectural features such as keyhole doors, peephole windows, Pueblo Bonito’s corner windows, circular kivas, and integrated rock walls have been thoughtfully incorporated to offer an authentic experience.
With ancient ruins just a short walk away on the ranch, a breathtaking view of the revered Sleeping Ute Mountain, expansive terrains to traverse, pristine dark skies for stargazing, and proximity to the Canyons of the Ancients National Monument, Sky Village stands as an idyllic retreat. Here, guests can immerse themselves in tranquility, rich cultural heritage, and unparalleled outdoor exploration.
Please note that Sky Village dwellings are adult only, and does not allow pets. If you have pets or children, please look into booking one of our guest houses on the main ranch.
There is a Level II Chargepoint Charger available for guest use.
Starting at $475 per night (2 nights minimum) + Tax and One time Cleaning Fee $120
