My husband and I just spent five (5) FANTASTIC days at Rowse's 1+1 Ranch! We always wanted to go to…read morea dude ranch and struck GOLD when we came across this Nebraska Sand Hills' treasure! Jerry and Tammy Rowse are the owners. We felt welcome the moment we arrived! The accommodations are extremely comfortable, and the food is FABULOUS! We sat around a large table for every meal interacting with Jerry, Tammy, and the other guests! It made me feel like a scene taken right out of The Waltons! Our stay was very well organized! We had the privilege of "catching our own horse, placing a halter around its neck and leading it out of the corral. The next step is brushing the horse really well, followed by saddling the horse, and finally removing the halter and replacing it with the bridle. We were provided ample assistance from Jerry, Tammy, and most notably, TO, aka Tonya! Each of them assists in such a professional manner that we NEVER felt intimidated or as though we were being subjected to condescension. We hadn't saddled a horse in nearly thirty (30) years, but thanks to their mentoring, we were literally "back in the saddle again"! The horses are phenomenal! Jerry divvies up the work amongst each guest daily and by day's end we were exhausted, but anxious to go again the next morning! If you like to ride, this is the place for you! If you like to eat, this is the place for you! If you like hardworking awesome people, this is the place for you! If you like honesty and integrity from the owners of the ranch, this is the place for you! If you want a vacation full of memories for a lifetime, this is the place for you! We cannot WAIT to go back next year! We have made new friends at Rowse's 1+1 Ranch in Burwell, NE; but best of all, Jerry, Tammy, Kyle, Tracy and T.O. are more like family than friends! Moral of this review? Rowse's 1+1 Ranch is the place for you!

This is the absolute perfect place to get away from a busy lifestyle for a while. The house is huge. Fully furnished. Comfortable beds. Big kitchen. Fireplace. TV with Dish Network. The owners brought us firewood. They brought us breakfast each morning. They even offered to bring over ingredients for cooking dinner if we wanted. They could not have been friendlier. My only drawback was the lack of cell phone reception and wi-fi. But if you're trying to disconnect, those are advantages.

Amazing people. Amazing tour. We took three tours with them: prairie chickens at 5:30am, sandhill…read morecranes at 6pm, and sandhill cranes at 10:15am. All exceptional experiences. Staff are pleasant, knowledgeable, local & passionate about sharing their love of North Platte's history, flora and fauna. Couldn't have asked for more. All the comforts you can imagine - snacks, water, restroom options, heaters in the cold early morning, even a goody bag at the end of the tours. Ten out of ten, home run, highly recommended! Imagine laughing as a young Black Angus cow rushes a group of Sandhill cranes & they scatter. Imagine watching prairie chickens harry a beautiful yellow Western meadowlark. Imagine a sunset that lingers for over an hour, deepening & changing by the minute. I will never forget these amazing tours run by this wonderful company.

We took 2 tours offered by Dusty Trails in North Platte. The first was in the evening into the…read morenight, and the second was mid-morning. Both were designed to view the Sandhill Cranes in their migration from Canada to Texas. The evening tour was disappointing just because it was difficult to see the cranes...it was night! We could hear them "humming", which was very fun. But I didn't head the Tour guidance to dress warmly, and I got very cold. Not their fault, but make sure you are dressed for cold. The Tour the next day was in a bus, which took us to harvested corn fields where we could see thousands of birds on the ground and flying into the fields. The guides were very informative and equally excited to see these birds. I recommend Dusty Trails highly.

Will add more review material soon. This evening, I broiled 2 of the thinner steaks for 3 of us. These were about an inch thick. Were very good, we all agreed, as prepared medium rare. I am anxious to get the thicker bone-in versions on the plate. They will be even better.
