L-J Ranch

Nestled in the heart of the Pine River Valley in Bayfield, Colorado – “Where Stars Shine Bright” – lies L-J Ranch, a 100-acre working cattle ranch and premier Colorado wedding venue.

For years, LePlatt’s Pond at L-J Ranch has hosted countless memorable weddings and special events. Our guests consistently praise the picturesque setting, with its towering cottonwoods, meandering streams, and the pristine lake bordering the Pine River. We also proudly offer USDA Grass-Fed beef, raised on our high-altitude hay, available in halves and wholes to our local community.
