Ranch specials offer western vacationers the opportunity to focus on what they love on their dude ranch vacation, and thanks to Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge special packages, 2012 promises to offer your best dude ranch vacations yet...
Calling all foodies...
Head to Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge on May 24-28, 2012, for the Culinary Retreat special - the ultimate foodie outdoor adventure! Enjoy a hands-on experience with Averill’s executive chef and his team, learning new western techniques that transfer easily to cooking up a storm in your own kitchen. A blend of culinary retreat and Montana adventure, this special package involves mornings spent in the kitchen and afternoons enjoying the ranch – from horseback riding to sailing and massage. Come night time when you’ve worked up an appetite, feast on dinners with special wine pairings, a happy hour with guest bartenders from the local distillery, plus an evening of beer tasting with the local brewery.

Foodies will love Averill's Culinary Retreat in May 2012
Escape the kids
Want to get away from it all - including the children? Then book Averill’s Adult Only Fall Getaway package on September 2-6, 2012, where you’ll get stuck into plenty of horseback adventures in a quiet, peaceful environment. Think breakfast rides, arena lessons, an extended luncheon ride and guide horseback rides – and when you’ve reached your saddle-sore limits, take to the water for lake cruises and sailing excursions. When you’re not enjoying the packages scheduled activities, simply relax at the pool or explore the shores of Flathead Lake. Outfitters will be on hand for fly fishing, lake fishing, whitewater rafting, massage and more, which you can enjoy alongside other adults. Round off your action-packed days with evenings filled with music around the campfire. Surely this is the only way to enjoy a western ranch vacation?
