I am looking for Dude Ranches to vacation for family of four. Nice hotel or cabins, pool , Great bbQ,
horseback, scenic area, restaurants. etc.

The best Dude Ranch to visit is in Bandera, Texas. It is called the MAYAN DUDE RANCH. It is family owned and operated for years by the Hick's family. Very entertaining and great food, early morning rides and fun. I went there as an 8th grader and then again 30 years later. It only got better. Kids loved it too.

The Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson is beautiful and a great family vacation spot. They have trail rides for beginners to advanced, hiking, bird watching, BBQ, a pool, and great food. The other attractions of Tucson will also be available to you if you choose to visit them. You didn't specify your time frame, though. The summer months are quite hot and they stop trail rides depending on the temperature.

We spent a great week at Drowsy Water Dude Ranch in Colo. Very family oriented. Log cabin accomodations. Riding,rafting available, overnight ride, early morning breakfast ride, night time fun activities, and the young riders put on a rodeo at the end of the week.
