RANCH TYPES

3 Unique Ranch Types

Working Ranch

These are working cattle operations. Your horseback experience will revolve around the ranch’s livestock and the work they require. Be prepared to experience hands-on activities such as herding, feeding, and checking the health of the cows on a daily basis. Relax and enjoy cowboy hospitality in this authentic environment.

Traditional Dude Ranch

Today's traditional dude ranch invokes the spirit of the American West for all to experience and gives everyone a special touch of western hospitality. These horseback-centered ranches offer multi-night stays with affordable rates, delicious chef-prepared meals, rustic but elegant cabins, and many special amenities unique to ranching, and a host of mountain adventures.

Luxury Guest Ranch

Along with the horses, cowboy hats, and home-style hospitality you’d find at all of our member ranches, luxury guest ranches often offer some options to pamper the highest of expectations, such as spa treatments, creative gourmet food, upscale lodging and amenities, a variety of adventure activities to fill out your day, and a larger staff to meet your specific needs

RANCHES ARE ALL INCLUSIVE

One transaction allows our guests to spend less time financing, and more time enjoying authentic experiences. Meals, activities, programs, and other activities are all included in the single ranch price
