| Don’t just Dream the Cowboy Dream….. “Live It!” Our main focus is horseback riding, cattle work, working with the young horses, and a roping experience if you choose. None of our ranch work is staged. It is real; we don’t have time to make up something for you to do. A typical week may include: cattle work, moving herds to pasture, sorting pairs, doctoring, checking water tanks, branding, working with the young horses and team roping. These activities allow us to extend our way of life to our guests. Other area attractions: Rodeos, fishing, hiking, canoeing/tanking, and golf. |

Children are welcome in all ranch activities, to their abilities, including riding, caring for their horse and learning to rope. |
