Quiet, majestic back to nature spot! This is a place to get away from a busy life. With close proximity to Winchell Lake, this land is ideal for fishing, hiking or simply enjoying the breathtaking scenery. We have 4 campsites available for tent or RV/trailer campers. If you're bringing an RV, we have two power outlets and water available. You will be parking on a field and the site requires levelling. Electricity and firewood are both available for purchase (see extras below). Please add this to your reservation at the time of booking. Campfires are permitted, pets are welcome. Potable water, picnic table, and outhouse are all available. We have cows, goats, chickens, horses and dogs on the property that generally love people. :) I have only one dog and typically allow dogs to run off leash. We do have to be careful that it doesn't turn to a dog gang as this happened once and they took down one of my goats. The goats Hon and Chewy are okay but it took months for poor Hon to heal. I also worry about the chickens so please keep and eye on your dogs! Lots of treed areas for private camping, horseback riding hiking and walking! Bird watching is big around here as we are on a bird migratory path. We are just above Winchell Lake and less than 10 km from Water Valley Golf Course and Saloon. Please recognize that you are visiting a Ranch not a campsite. We are sharing our sharing our heaven with you and you are helping to support our animal and this heaven. Chickens are "True" Free Range and hand fed every morning. Eggs are $7.00 a dozen to pay for their feed. :)

Great site, friendly host.

Laura was an excellent host and went out of her way to make us feel welcome. The property was beautiful and the animals were friendly. We will definitely come back again.

Amazing with a capital A

Amazing with a Capital A! We spent 6 months in Canada and this was one of the best experiences we had! A lot of places were already closed because it was november but even though it was already past 8 PM we got an answer within a few minutes that we could stay over night. The host helped us to find the place and let us stay in front of the house because of the snow. She was so wellcoming and as the cherry on top we saw the Northern Lights dancing in the skies. Could not have been more perfect. Would definitely recommend 10/10.

Peaceful retreat

Peaceful retreat, the only noise was cows gently mooing and horses in the distance. Plenty of land and forest to explore teeming with life. There was a beautiful owl at camp who followed us for our walks and deer in the forested paddocks. Laura took us on a goat walk and was an amazing host, we could definitely of stayed longer.

Laura really is the heart and soul of Rough Diamond Ranch. We camped in her community RV site and had a wonderful time. We loved the fabulous valley views and fun interactions with her horses, goats and chickens. We even met some longhorn cattle. Sitting around the community campfire and enjoying karaoke was just part of the fun. Laura and her team went out of their way to offer friendship and down to earth hospitality. Kudos to this amazing woman! We would definitely visit again if we return to Alberta.

The meadow is beautiful! Great escape from the city. Loads of land for our dog to run around and explore. Laura was an awesome host— helpful and friendly. Very generous firewood! Definitely recommend camping at the farm😊
