It’s All Here… Whatever
Tickles Your Fancy!

At Rainbow Trout Ranch, we’re proud to say that we have a little something of fun for absolutely everyone, from tenderfoots and greenhorns, to full-fledged cowboys and cowgirls – young and old. And that’s no fiddle faddle.

A big part of being one of America’s finest family-focused dude ranches is understanding that getting away from it all doesn’t necessarily mean not being entertained or catered to!

I like to dance, but not in the air.

Your week at the ranch will be filled with many fun activities and you can be as active or as restful as you wish. Of course there is the excellent riding, fishing, day trips and hiking, but there is also swimming, bird watching, playing horseshoes, trapshooting, archery, volleyball/basketball, or simply games in the large Rec Room.

And RTR has an outdoor heated swimming pool, complete with a slide and our very own rainbow trout painted on the bottom! We have two cookout lunches a week by the pool and they’ve become a popular RTR tradition. Cookouts often include heated basketball contests amongst staff and guests resulting in someone having to go down the slide fully dressed.
