The Dude Ranchers’ Association has been helping folks find quality Western ranch vacations since its formation in 1926. Thus, 2009 marks our 83rd year. To help folks find the perfect ranch, the Association annually publishes a directory that lists and describes its 100+ member ranches located in 12 Western states and two Canadian provinces. This annual directory includes a description of member ranches organized by state, a handy amenities comparison grid, and much more ranch vacation information.
In addition to a description of each individual ranch’s program and amenities, each ranch listing conveniently contains the ranch’s address, phone number, dates of operation, altitude, the nearest airport, and more. The 2009 directory has been described as the most authoritative and reliable one-stop source available anywhere for finding the perfect ranch vacation.
All new Dude Ranchers’ Association members have undergone the same rigorous two-year inspection and selection process that has allowed the association to set the standards for excellence in the dude ranching industry for the past 83 years. Not all that apply are accepted. Member ranches range from rustic cattle ranches to more luxurious resort type facilities. However, all still preserve the ranch flavor with a focus on horseback riding, cookouts, hayrides and personal attention. Most have great fishing, hiking and wildlife viewing. Many have children’s programs, pools, overnight pack trips, and trips to nearby National Parks, while others offer an opportunity for “city slickers” to work with the cattle alongside real cowboys. Don’t just dream about it, be a part of that history. Experience the real West comfortably on an authentic dude ranch! Click To Get your Copy of the 2009 Directory
