5.0 out of 5 stars LEADING GUIDE TO RANCH VACATIONS IN NORTH AMERICA, June 1, 2005
By 
Robert Stack "Fame Coach" (Palm Beach Gardens, FL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Gene Kilgore's Ranch Vacations (Paperback)
The recently published 7th edition of Gene Kilgore's Ranch Vacations describes over 90 guest, resort, fly-fishing, and Winter ranches in North America. Whether you are looking for a private getaway, a working dude ranch, or resort for the whole family, this is by far the most comphrensive guide available in bookstores today. Author Gene Kilgore, widely considered the recognized authority on ranch vacations, has traveled thousands upon thousands of miles to tell you the reader tidbits of information about the setting, rates, activities, accomodations, dining options, entertainment and children's programs. He also includes helpful advice on how best to reach your destination. As in past editions, Kilgore has included wise sage tips on choosing the right ranch, what to pack, helpful maps, and a wonderful glossary of ranch terms. The 7th edition of this book sits on a shelf in my personal study alongside the six previous editions and will no doubt help me plan yet another ranch vacation for my family as we love to relive the time honored traditions of dude ranching. I commend the author on his commitement to opening the eyes of his readers to the beauty that is ranch country. Happy trails await you.

4.0 out of 5 stars ranch vacations, June 20, 2008
This review is from: Gene Kilgore's Ranch Vacations (Paperback)
Overall it was very informative. The categories were well laid out for comparison. There were a few ranches that were not included so I had to rely on their own websites. Kilgore makes you want to get out on the ranch immediately. We are looking forward to our first ranch vacation. Kilgore made the choice easier for sure.

Very thorough information on 100 dude ranches across the country. Info is very detailed and thoughtfully written. Made it easy to decide which ranch fit our needs and had the amenities we were looking for.
