RANCH HAND

The History Of Dude Ranching



Dude ranching first emerged in the late 1800s when European visitors and American tourists from the East first began to travel out West. These ranches provided safe, comfortable accommodations in beautiful and rugged settings, and gave guests a taste of what ranch life was really like. For a fee of ten dollars, guests received a full week of accommodations, hearty meals, horses to ride, and the company of ranchers. Modern-day dude ranches offer the very same pleasures (though at a higher rate).
