Hunters Prepare!

Thursday, September 10, 2009 by Regan Jennings

As mentioned in a previous post, “Its time to book that hunting trip!” 

Or,
if you’ve got a deer hunting trip or complete hunting packages to offer, its time to get them listed on www.country-adventures.com.

We’ve seen increased interest in our turkey and big game hunts in the last couple weeks.  Even our prairie dog hunts are getting more “face time” from new customers. 

The customer questions aren’t hard to answer, so don’t let that scare you away from listing.  Hunters want to know – What time can I check in for my hunt?  Can I bring my Dad/Son/Mom/Aunt…?  What kind/size animals have you seen so far this year?  Is there room for my dog?

All it takes to list your hunting package or land is an original title – like “Deer Hunting Trip” or ”Lease 200 acres for Hunting”, a description of what is included – or not included, a price, and a picture or logo so they have something to look at while they book their hunting trip. 

So,
Hunters – check our out hunting listings by clicking the Outdoor Adventures button to the right. 

Potential listers/sellers - go to www.Country-Adventures.com and click on the “Free Rent” sign you’ll see on the home page. 

We look forward to hearing from both groups!

Rual Hospitality Listings

Thursday, September 10, 2009 by Regan Jennings Ever wonder what www.Country-Adventures.com considers “Rural Hospitality“?

At Country Adventures, we’ve got a whole section for Rural Hospitality. 

Every listing in this section is based on an authentic farm- or agriculture-related activity or experience – like wine and vineyard tours or a family ranch vacation. Work side-by-side with a farmer for a day-or simply be a spectator as you marvel at the sophistication of today’s ag producer. Take a personal tour of a farm, cattle ranch or dairy. This is your chance to see how agriculture has changed since the last time you were on Grandpa’s farm—and to share with your children the farming heritage of our great nation. The farmers, ranchers and rural residents who have listed here have opened their doors to you—inviting you to spend some quality time learning, doing and relaxing at their homes and on their rural property. These are real adventures hosted by the real people responsible for putting food on the world’s table.T You can get to know them-and how they do what they do-and have great fun in the process!

So,
Roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty! 
Click on the Rural Hospitality button to the right to get started!

Rural Entertainment

Find fun fall family activities in your area by searching Country-Adventures.

                 From Pumpkin Patches  to  Corn Mazes

           

 

Family Fun Awaits!

Many pumpkin patches feature much more than a trip into the field to pick out your future jack-o-lantern.  Hay rides, corn mazes (from the absurdly funny to the scary), apple cider, petting zoos, potted plants, crafts, and even train rides make this rural destination a treat for the whole family.  So, grab a sweatshirt and see what the country has to offer!

“We recently had a weekend getaway with 4 awesome girlfriends and it was wonderful! Very inexpensive way to get away from the crazy life, enjoy each other and relax! All 4 of us commented how perfect it was & can’t wait to take our families back for another weekend! “

Hunting Season is on the horizon

Thursday, August 6, 2009 by Regan Jennings

Hunting season is fast approaching. 

Do you have your hunts booked yet?  www.Country-Adventures.com features hunting ground, outfitters, guides, and lodging.  Hunting packages are increasingly popular.  You show up with your gun (and sometimes your dog), and the hosts do the rest.  They’ve scouted out the best spots, put up stands, and are now waiting for you, the hunter.  Hunting packages include lodging, a guide, meals, transportation and meat processing. 

Where are you going to find your next trophy buck?

Family fun on the farm.

Thursday, June 25, 2009 by Regan Jennings

Banjo Creek has got it all!  You and your family will enjoy panning for gold, eating ice cream, and shopping for unique toys and gifts.  The petting farm will also keep you busy with the multitude of animals - including a pig, miniature cows & horses, llamas, goats, chickens, and giant Flemish rabbits.   You’ll find Banjo Creek listed under “Rural Hospitality” on www.country-adventures.com.

Working Cows Dairy is another idea.  See how an organic farms differs from traditional farms.  Watch the cow being milked, learn what and how they are fed, and where they rest.  Your family can tour the farm, extend your stay by renting the cottage for a family farm vacation, shop for metal artwork, wood crafts, cow crafts and organic meat. 
 

Want something different for your family vacation?  Visit Fairhope Alpacas to learn about the alpaca industry.  But  you’ll have to make reservations in advance.  As a family run farm, they’ve got chores to fit in too.  They breed and raise high quality huacaya alpacas.  Each of the 50 alpacas that live on the farm has a unique personality and receives individualized care. 

You get to choose what your family will learn and experience on this year’s summer vacation.  Just make sure they have plenty to write home about!

Hot summer, cool family fun

Looking for a family vacation idea?  Everybody likes to hit the water when the weather is hot.  Leavenworth Outfitters have several Adventure Packages to keep you cool.  

They offer guided float trips for a few hours or a few days that can accommodate groups up to 16 people.  Starting near Lake Wenatchee, this river adventure is perfect for a group or family vacation.  The trips are available from April through October, and you can choose to raft or kayak.  They will even cater a riverside lunch so you can enjoy the wildlife, swim, or just relax before hitting the river again.    
 

For the less adventurous, they have guided nature tours on the Icicle River.  All ages are welcome on this two hour raft tour.  Designed for interactive wildlife viewing, families, children and seniors will all enjoy the fun stories and legends as told by the guides.  They provide dry bags and binoculars – you bring your camera – the wildlife is waiting!

You can see more of Leavenworth Outfitters and several other on www.country-adventures.com.

Before And After Horse Camp

Thursday, June 18, 2009 by Regan Jennings

Thinking of taking a horse vacation this year? 

Horse ranch vacations are amazingly popular with children.  They love the thought of running swiftly through the country side on the back of a huge horse.  The picture is very enticing, and after all, how hard could it be?

Well, for the uninitiated, harder than they thought.  Not everyone is comfortable on a horses back.  Think about it, high above the ground, on a moving seat that you may or may not know how to control, on an animal that is much larger and stronger than you imagined… 

Well, there are ways to prepare.   First, have everyone try out the whole horse thing before you make your reservations.  Second,  find the horse ranch that best suits your families ability level.    If you are new to horses, you’ll want very tame, well trained horses.  If you are a family of experienced riders, you probably won’t be happy on a horse ranch offering only nose to tail trail rides. 

Country-Adventures can help you with both types of preparations.  Under our “Outdoor Adventures” category, we have many facilities offering horseback riding lessons and trail rides.  Under our “Rural Hospitality” category we have many Ranch Vacation Spots to choose from. 

With a little planning, horse vacations can be that fun family vacation you’ve been looking for.  Start your planning today on www.country-adventures.com.
