Go Hard Ranch is nestled alongside Chip Lake, just 15 minutes from the Yellowhead Highway near the small hamlet of Wildwood, Alberta, and only an hour's drive from Edmonton. The Ranch overlooks one of Alberta’s largest and most underrated lakes, promising to captivate you during your stay at this second-generation family ranch. The family has worked together to bring their vision of the Ranch to life, creating a unique space that is uplifting, beautiful, and comfortable. Whether you want to step outside to experience stunning views, immerse yourself in nature, glimpse Alberta wildlife, watch a multitude of bird species, or hike or ride your horse through the land, Go Hard Ranch is your perfect oasis. The Ranch is ideal for getaways with friends, couples, and families, group camping, and hosting retreats or events. It is also a sought-after wedding venue. Join them for a weekend of camping, campfires, and tranquillity. You can choose to stay in cozy cabins, authentic tipis or the ranch campground! The historic log cabin is the centerpiece of the ranch, surrounded by three smaller guest cabins, the tipis, wash house, cook house and the campground. At the heart of our campground you may find a log gazebo ideal for gatherings as well as a playground for the littlest guests to nurture their sense of play. Each cabin has its own style, and each tipi has its own powerful theme. Stay in the Warrior Spirit Tipi for the brave, the Bison Spirit Tipi for those who roam, or the War Horse Spirit Tipi for connection. These authentic tipi accommodations offer a unique way to get back to your roots and experience the true feeling of living in Canada. We also have a private piece of property along the lakeshore that only our guests have access to! Enjoy a picnic on the lake and watch the waterfowl or just enjoy nature and the stunning sunsets! Whether you are visiting the Ranch for a wedding, attending an event, or simply needing a weekend getaway from your busy life, the Ranch has much to offer. It provides a venue with just the right touch of the country, no matter the reason for your visit. Go Hard Ranch truly is a place where romance meets rustic.

Bison Spirit Tipi | Glamping

Canvas tent · Sleeps 4
The Bison Spirit Tipi - For those that Roam. Bison is the ruler of the plains, symbolizing abundance freedom and strength. Commanding respect by it's mere presence, the bison is a force to be honored. The bison spirit animal is a wise teacher of living in balance with the Great Mother. As the bison moves across the land it is grounded to the rhythms of the ancient mysteries and cycles of life. The symbolic power of the bison is to align with the spirit of inner strength, for there is a place within us all that provides the power to endure and overcome far more than we realize. As the bison roams, it leads us on a journey of discovery, strength and endurance. Bison gives us the power to move forward, adapting to the changes that come our way, because the bison has experienced great change and reminds us that change is constant. Feel the energy of the Bison when you stay in our 26 foot authentic tipi. This hand painted and handcrafted masterpiece boasts bison pictographs roaming on its canvas and as you step past its door shield that holds the energy of the medicine wheel, you'll find stunning decor and luxurious beds. Sleep the night away in the fresh air under beautiful, yet equally cozy blankets, pull your chair close to the stone propane firepit and give yourself the time to soak in the beauty and ancient energy of this tipi. Immerse yourself in its authenticity, yet stay very comfortably. This tipi is the perfect fit for family or friends to step back in time and have an authentic experience.

War Horse Spirit Tipi | Glamping

Booked 1 time
Canvas tent · Sleeps 2
War Horse Spirit - For Connection Take in the Sacred Symbols of the long ago war horse, that represent the connection to nature, oneself and the Universe. For Indigenous people, painting a war horse was a sacred act that held power not only in the paints made from Nature but the painted symbols, too. In Native American cultures, horses meant power, wealth and survival. To paint a horse for battle, self expression or for a bison hunt was a sacred act, believed to enhance power for both horse and rider—spiritually and physically. The most common link between any tribe was the belief of kinship with nature, the earth and all its animals, and the conviction that nature imparted a vital power in the paints themselves and the symbols too, brought power to horse and rider. Experience a stay in this 24 foot tipi with handpainted warhorse images running wild on its canvas. This tipi has a stunning queen size and bed ideal for a more romantic stay.

Warrior Spirit Tipi | Glamping

Canvas tent · Sleeps 4
Warrior Spirit~ For the Brave The warrior is a person who shows great vigor, courage, determination, inner strength and heroism when confronted with challenges and obstacles. The warrior takes care of their community, protects their elders and the defenseless. They are a brave fighter, and a force to be reckoned with. Traditionally, tipis were not merely shelters but a representation of a nomadic lifestyle closely connected to the earth and the elements. We chose to incorporate tipis into the ranch for many reasons, yet the most important one was to honor the past—both of the land and our family. Three tipis now stand at the ranch every season. Each of them holds its own meaning and significant energy. Immerse yourself in nature by staying in our tipi accommodations for a more authentic land-living experience. Similar in size to our Bison tipi, the warrior is the perfect option for families or a group of friends wanting an upscale yet authentic experience.
