Rootin' Tootin' Roundups


Return with us to those rough and ready days of yesteryear, where women could shoot the eye out of a sparrow, men sang love songs to their horses, and long-horned cattle dotted the range like sagebrush.

At Sandy Valley Ranch, those days exist not in history books but for real. Join us at the ranch, 45 minutes and 100 years from the tumbling dice and neon lights of Las Vegas, and play cowpoke for real, pushin’ them cattle across the range like a genuine John Wayne.

Our skilled staff of wranglers will help you push those cows through the plains, washes and windy canyons of the majestic Clark Mountains and herd them home into holding corrals. You can learn to throw a rope, saddle and bridle your horse and even get a few tips on how to sit comfortably on our well-trained mounts.

After a glorious day of playing cowboy for real, you can come and get’cher gourmet grub around a crackling campfire, trade tall tales and sleep under the stars in our authentic range teepees, accompanied by a coyote chorus (if them varmints ain’t feelin’ lazy).


WHAT WE PROVIDE

The Ranch will provide you with a herd of frisky longhorns and corriente cattle (those speedy little dogies favored by rodeos in the calf roping contests); hearty chuck wagon meals, tents, sleeping bags, pillows, flashlights and everything you need to make your roundup as real and as safe as possible. We’ll even dress you for the part with chaps, dusters, 10-gallon hats and neckerchiefs, and we’ll come tote you from Las Vegas in our air-conditioned vans, leaving from designated locations on the Las Vegas Strip. Or, if you desire, you can travel by helicopter for a thrilling, scenic flight to the Ranch over dramatic country that would take days to cover by horse and wagon.

We offer additional packages for friends, children and mates who choose not to participate in the entire roundup. They can join you for lunches and trail rides while you play out your workin’ cowboy fantasies.

Please check the local weather and dress appropriately before joining us in jeans, boots, and long-sleeved shirts. And don’t forget your sunblock.
