Guest Ranch

Homely and welcoming, guest ranches often follow in the tradition of a typical western ranch – decorated in a rustic style but with the added benefit of comfortable surroundings and modern amenities. Many guest ranches are family run and have a relaxed approach to daily activities. Horse riding is the main pastime at a guest ranch and other activities tend to be fitted around the riding on an informal basis. Often horses are the only livestock at this type of ranch, although some may offer cattle work on neighbouring ranches if available but, more commonly, you will ride and then relax. You can expect to enjoy home cooked meals served family style and outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, fishing and camp-fire entertainment. Accommodation at a guest ranch varies from individual cabins to a room in the main lodge with most offering various room types to suit everyone from individuals and couples to larger groups and families.
