National Horse Camp at Tennessee Dude & Guest Ranch

Situated in Dunlap, Tennessee, the Tennessee Dude & Guest Ranch is an exceptional destination that blends traditional dude ranch activities with biblical lessons about horses. Since its establishment in 2002 by Tammy and Chris Young, the ranch has been a place of friendship and learning, offering guests individualized horse riding instruction and daily adventures in a serene countryside setting. The summer camp, called National Horse Camp, caters to youths aged 8 to 15 and brings beginner to intermediate riders into a week-long immersive experience focused on horsemanship and animal care. Besides the camp, the ranch offers variety of stays including short trips or longer vacations, all featuring personal wrangler support and educational components geared toward safety and horsemanship. The ranch also runs a small private school which emphasizes agricultural and ministry training.
