Before Starbucks and iPad apps were a sign of city life, ole’ saloons and horse-drawn carriages were markers of a thriving town. Lucky for us, these historic hubs still exist and are now happening spots for lil’ cowboys and cowgirls. Looking to roll up their sleeves and pan for gold? Or watch an old fashioned shootout without the danger? Flip through our slideshow for the best Wild West Towns across the country.

San Antonio, Tx

When stopping by San Antonio, visit Enchanted Springs Ranch, an Old West theme park where kids can hop on tractor wagon rides through a wild animal park, see stage shows and old style saloons. San Antonio also has a rich Spanish influence, which leads to many beautiful attractions, like the Alamo, for picture-happy parents. It’s not your regular family attraction.
