    I wonder if Harvest Hosts would have a place like that.
  • There may be something like that in/near Kanab, Utah. I seem to remember reading about a place with a few (and I mean a few!) RV spots on a working ranch in that area. You could try googling for "dude ranch RV camping" and then cross-referencing what you find with a site like rvparkreviews.com.
  • The University of California, Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, has an online California Agricultural Tourism Directory. It is searchable by location and activity. Under Activity Search, the Accommodations option includes Camping or RV facilties.

    Have a great trip!
  • Most Dude Ranches that I've heard of have their guest ranchers stay right in a bunk house and eat with the ranch hands so they experience the whole and real thing. But, there might be exceptions. Do a search on Dude Ranches and see what returns.
