Find Adult-Oriented Atmospheres at a Dude Ranch

Dude and guest ranches are, of course, popular as family vacation destinations, but members of the Dude Ranchers’ Association recognize that adults also value time to themselves. When the kids get back on the bus, it’s time for parents to get back in the saddle for a classic Western getaway. From the latter part of August through October, dude ranches are adults’ best opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere of the ranch with just adults around!

In the late summer and fall months, adults will have their pick of dude ranches with September traditionally reserved as a time for adults only. DRA member ranches offer rates that include meals, riding, other activities, and accommodations, making dude ranches an even more attractive getaway. Many ranches during the adult-oriented time period of their seasons also offer adult activities like yoga practice, wine and cheese rides, whiskey and wine tastings, and more.

When you vacation at a Dude Ranchers’ Association member ranch, you can be sure of a quality vacation. Member ranches endure a rigorous inspection and approval process that ensures guests are treated to genuine western hospitality combined with the lodging industry’s highest standards.
