ranch stay

Rural lodging experience

A ranch stay is a vacation spent at a working or guest ranch, typically offering activities like horseback riding, cattle work, hiking, and campfire meals.

The experience emphasizes rural authenticity and connection to western or agricultural life: We booked a ranch stay in Montana for the kids to learn riding.

Also called a dude ranch vacation.
