(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 27, 2012 ) CODY, Wyo.- Dude ranch family vacations require little planning and result in happy family members. All-inclusive packages mean comfy accommodations, hearty meals, and days full of activities are already taken care of. Just as there are many types of families, there are many types of ranches to fit. The Dude Ranchers Association can help families choose from over 100 of the highest quality ranches in the U.S. and Canada. A few family reunions ranch options include:
Rent the entire ranch. Families looking for a large, private getaway can opt to rent out an entire ranch. In the North Platte River Valley of Wyoming, the Lodge and Spa at Brush Creek Ranch will rent out its luxurious facilities and over 13,000 acres of unspoiled wilderness. Packages can be customized to suit the needs of the family.
For the adventurous family, hoping to reconnect in an unforgettable way, a pack trip or cattle drive is another alternative. MontanaÂ’s Seven Lazy P Guest Ranch takes guests into the Bob Marshall Wilderness on pack trips lasting 5, 6, 8, or 10 days. Two packers and a cook accompany groups of up to 11 as they travel through high alpine basins, wildflower meadows, lush valleys, and scenic river ways.
Try a traditional stay. Greenhorn Creek Guest Ranch in Quincy, California can share a classic ranch vacation with up to 80 family members. Everyone can spend the day riding trails, fishing streams, or exploring the ranch. At night square dances, cookouts, and campfires bring everyone together to share their memories.
