The Dude Ranch Experience
Dude Ranches or Guest Ranches are usually a family-owned and operated ranch with the primary objective of offering its guests a Western experience. Traditionally early settlers were vulnerable to the elements of nature and the often uncharted lands as the United States spread to what became the "Old West."
As rich rewards enticed more and more people to come west in their quest for new lives, homesteads, ranches and new beginnings formed the most renown part of American history. The lands that were settled rang with natural excitement and beauty that is beyond description. It was quite common to feel as though you had been hand selected to live in an area that touched by mother nature and adorned with her most valued treasures.
