When I think of a Dude Ranch, I instantly go back to the ’90s and Hey Dude. A place I always wished I lived because it seriously looked like so much fun. Swimming, hiking, horseback riding, great food, hanging out around the fire, and lots of fun.

A Dude Ranch is the original all-inclusive vacation destination where adventure and fitness go hand in hand, and the Dude Ranchers’ Association has a host of out-of-the-box ideas if you are seeking an active family vacation!

#1 Guided Adventures

Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge in Bigfork, Montana offers a comprehensive lineup of outdoor excursions, ranging from fly-fishing to whitewater rafting. If you’re looking for something a little different, check out Northern Lights Laser Tag!

The world’s most advanced laser tag with ranges of up to 20,000 feet (that’s three football fields in length!). You’ll find yourself climbing in trees, hiding behind boulders and even creating makeshift camouflage to bring home a win.

Rancho de los Caballeros in Wickenburg, Arizona has space and scenic locations to enjoy your favorite sports activities – whether it’s tennis, swimming or perfecting your shooting skills. When you want to cover a lot of territory, hop in a Jeep, all-terrain vehicle or hot air balloon to experience the property in a completely new way.
