SUPERVISED KIDS' CLUB Newborn to age 13 DISTANCE FROM AIRPORT 90 minutes LOWEST RATES May 29 to June 5 and August 21 to 27 (children's programs end August 27).

Your little cowboys will flip over this dude ranch two hours northwest of Denver. In the Buckaroo program, kids 5 and under take pony rides, play ranch games, and go on picnic hikes during the day while older ones hone their riding skills plus swim, raft, and learn archery. "Every guest gets
a horse for the entire stay so they form a bond," says co-owner Justin Fosha. Families come together for meals, including chuckwagon lunches and open-hearth barbecues. Sing-alongs, s'mores-roasting, campfires, and even a carnival keep everyone entertained until they hit the sack in a Western-style cabin.
