Might A Family Dude Ranch Weekend Stay Be Fun For Your Family?

By Karelle N. Lindgren


Have you ever seen a dude ranch other than in the old western movies? You can actually visit a real life Old Western ranch that is still in operation currently and welcoming visitors to stay and enjoy the ranch life. There is truly a real Old West operating ranch that is available to take your family to visit and take part in the daily activities.

Many people have at one time or another dreamt about living life in the Old West, riding the open range on horseback and spending evenings around the campfire. We have done some checking around and learned it is possible to live out those dreams on a typical old fashioned ranch from the old west doing things the same way they were accomplished for hundreds of years. You can learn how they grow hay, feed the cattle and horses, brand the calves and round up the herds to drive them to grazing areas.

Whether you are interested in seeing a little or a lot, you can spend a few days and nights or even a weekend to enjoy family ranch vacations activities that are available and will be sure to delight, educate and entertain your entire family. You can pick from so many dude ranch vacation activity options that you are strongly encouraged to spend at least three nights to allow you to experience as much as possible.

The dude ranch resorts will offer three ranch meals daily, riding instructions, horseback riding, and opportunities to participate in brushing, feeding and saddling. You can also choose to observe or receive lessons in arena activities that include things like barrel racing events. The assorted things you can select to take part of include a roping clinic, archery, hiking, hay wagon rides, swimming, western style dancing, the popular campfires and even just loafing around to relax.

I can just picture it now, the gorgeous view of rolling meadows dotted with ponds and rivers where you can try your skill at fishing or enjoy a relaxing ride. And of course the facilities supply you with comfort and privacy even while decorated in a western style. You can also stop by the ice-cream shop for a treat or shop for the popular souvenirs in the gift shop and smell the tangy aroma of home-style meals serviced in the country style dining room. Also enjoy the lively Western dancing taking place in the dance and recreation hall that provides live music. You can also select from various other types of activities like the game room with billiards and Ping-Pong, a weight and fitness room or grab a good book to enjoy in the reading room. This is an experience that will be remembered for a long time and supplies something for everyone.
