The Bee Huts are closed for the 2024 season

Come Enjoy Capella Ranch

Capella Ranch, located in Lafayette, Colorado, is a small family farm that offers multiple unique experiences delivering relaxation, fun, and joyful memories.  Our featured experience is a unique, meditative rest in our Capella Ranch Bee Huts.  In a Bee Hut, you relax, meditate, and revel in the aroma, vibration, and sound of active, working beehives. Though closed for the season now in 2024, in springtime 2025 you can safely meet the bees through a heavily-screened bench, and you’ll literally be inches away from the colonies as they work their magic on their honey. 

We welcomed 8 baby goats to the herd in summer 2024 and they all love to snuggle!  Leave the yoga for another day and come get the BEST part - holding a baby goat!  Also new this year, we've partnered with Janice's Flowers and you can come to Capella Ranch and build your own bouquet!  Or make it a party - pick your time, invite your friends, bring your favorite beverage, and bring home some beauty!  Or get a preview of it all with a Ranch Tour.  We'll show you the whole place, all the animals, and some of the amazing views at the back of the ranch.

Book your experience below.  Fun, relaxation, and one-of-a-kind memories are waiting!

Have additional questions? Check out these FAQs

  • Bees are highly sensitive to odors, and they don’t like perfume. To help the bees remain calm, prior to your visit, please do not use any strongly-scented materials such as deodorant, perfume, or lotions.
  • Remain calm. There are always bees in the air at Capella Ranch, and as they pass by they may take an interest in you. If they do, calmly walk away. If they follow, walk circles around the nearby trees. Do not swat at bees as that can put them on the defensive. The bees don’t want to sting you any more than you want to be stung - they just think you’re kind of interesting.
  • Although the probability of being stung by a bee is realistically quite low, it exists. If you know that you are allergic to bee stings, please do not participate in this experience.
  • Colorado summers can be hot, and to retain the most vapor possible, we do not ventilate the Bee Huts. Late afternoons on sunny days can be quite warm in the Bee Huts, so drink plenty of water and exit the Bee Hut if you feel uncomfortable.
  • We have a variety of pillows available for your use, and you are definitely welcome to bring your own.
  • Get ready to relax, breathe deeply, and enjoy a truly multi-sensory experience!
