dude ranch family vacation with toddler?

hi everybody

does anyone know about a great dude ranch or farm where we can spend our vacation around may june with our 2 year old.

i would like to find something where there are ponyrides and things to do with the 3 of us. i am not interested in something were they have things for only kids so that parents can do something alone, thats not what i am looking for.

anyone knows of any cool ranch in california or arizona or even somewhere else.

thanks
thanks, good to know, do you know anything about farm vacations?

1. The problem is dude ranches are not made for kids that small, at least not to do activities with their parents. Dude ranches cover a wide range, from real working ranches to resorts with horses. Still the main purpose is to put people on horses and get them out into the countryside. That isn't something for kids that small. Truth is you are at least 3 to 4 years too early for this kind of adventure with your child. When the time does come, I would recommend your child have riding lessons before showing up at a dude ranch, just to be on the safe side.

Sorry don't know anything about farm vacations.

Traveling with small kids is tough in it really limits your options. I took my kids to places like San Diego for the first 2-4 years. Between the pool, beach, zoo and Sea World, they were pretty happy. Of course then I would take another vacation just for me later.
