“For an exciting ride . . . head out to the Westgate River Ranch Resort, a ,1700-acre dude ranch with western-themed accommodations, and multiple activities to choose from, including trail rides, fishing, hayrides, skeet shooting, a weekly rodeo and airboat rides for authentic Florida alligator-watching. I saddled up on a handsome paint quarter horse named ‘Gus’ to enjoy a trail ride, and later had the exhilarating experience of an air-boat ride on the Kissimmee River, where wildlife is abundant (and yes, I saw alligators!). How many dude ranches can offer that kind of experience?”
