We had the best stay here. Dale was an amazing host who always made sure we had everything and even offered to help plow us out if we got stuck on our way out. The cabin is beautiful, the stove is warm, and our nature walks were awesome. We even got to snuggle Sully the cat during our stay. We will definitely be back!

Our stay at this cabin was absolutely wonderful! 😍The place felt so cozy and welcoming — everything was spotless and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell how much love and care went into every little detail.🥹😍
The nature around is stunning, and we truly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. The host was incredibly kind and made us feel right at home.
We were especially touched by the little treats — the marshmallows and cookies were such a sweet surprise (and so delicious!). Thank you also for the oatmeal — it made our morning breakfast perfect.🫣
My husband and I had the most relaxing and happy time here. We’ll definitely come back again!😊

My friend & I had an amazing time at Dale & Colleen's. They are wonderful hosts - friendly, helpful and there were so many more great amenities than we expected or read about. The property is expansive and is well maintained. Our cabin and washroom was so clean and there were many added touches such as body wash, soap and towels. The cats were very friendly and sweet - we loved them! Beds were very comfortable and cozy. Too many awesome things to list!! We'll be back again without a doubt.

We had a great time Glamping here with our two little boys! It was the perfect way to camp in comfort (and warmth) with them. The cabins/tents and bathrooms were clean and well maintained. There was access to running water (non-potable) for dishes. The sauna was brand new and a definite touch of luxury. The staff were so friendly and approachable.

Dale and Coleen were very accommodating and were great to talk to. Would highly recommend visiting and will hopefully be returning at some point!

My friends and I were looking for a place near Edmonton to relax and rest away from the noise of the city. Carmen's place was perfect for what were looking for! The place was super cute and clean, we also had everything we needed for a little glamping night. They also have a variety of board games you could play and even had some walking trails you could go to. There were also so many birds and chipmunks, and so many stars at night, it honestly felt like we were hours away from the city! We would recommend this place to anyone, and would love to come back one day!

4 nights at Trappers Hill Lodges & Campground
Wow what an experience, the drive up was a bit rough our first time but after the 2nd time it was no problem, our Honda civic got us through no problem! We loved the view from our cabin and enjoyed the sauna and Cold plunge after long days and in the early mornings. And we had Dusty (Campground cat) keep us company during the rain fall in the mornings and cuddles by the fire at night time on our last night. Coming from manitoba to camping in the mountains was an absolute adventure and would/will 100% come back, we had a leak in our cabin but Pete came and sealed it up the next day and gave us a free bundle of wood for any troubles we delt with. I recommend this place highly as its an experience you will never forget! Me and my honey will never forget our adventures there and am glad we found this gem.

Weekend Trip to Nature Alive Adventures and Camping
I loved our stay at the log cabin. It was cozy. Comforting. Peaceful and quiet. The communal hot tub served us well after a day of driving and hiking. The washroom was VERY clean. Loved the trails, the beaver dam and Sully - the little cat that followed us around on the trails and kept us company. If you are looking for a quick getaway from the city life or hoping to relax and chill for a week surrounded by the peace of the forest, then this is your place. Cook a meal on the propane stove or wood fire pit, read a book or simple spend an evening watching the beavers build their dam. I loved how welcoming Dave, and his wife was. Glad they are building an external sink and a communal kitchen to welcome longer stays and bigger groups. We would definitely go back.

What truly stood out was the hospitality of the owners—they’re warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Whether you’re visiting to unwind, explore the outdoors, or just enjoy some quiet time away from the city, this place delivers. I’ve already recommended it to friends and look forward to coming back again soon!

Weekend Trip to Nature Alive Adventures and Camping
My bestfriend and I booked this retreat for a peaceful gateway and it was a huge success! The land is beautiful, sleeping in the cabin is a unique stay. We loved the experience since it offered us the best of both worlds: spending time in nature with the incredible sound of trees and fire, while enjoying the comfort of a cozy bed, a functional washroom/ shower, and a hot tub to relax. We were able to cook our food on a stovetop, and everything we needed was available. Being isolated does give a unique feel to the environment and sounds around you, I really recommend it! Dale was beyond welcoming and helpful during our stay, we learned lots from him and it was nice to have company!
- A couple of things to keep in mind: the last 10 minutes of the drive towards the property may be a bumpy road because of the rocks - just keep on going; you’re on the right track! In terms of cellular service, we were able to send a couple of texts in two specific spots that Dale has generously offered to show us, but I recommend downloading your offline maps before arriving and making sure your car’s GPS is up to date just in case. If you have a relatively new/ updated iPhone, you’re able to send messages through a Satellite connection. I’m certain you’d enjoy your relaxing stay on this beautiful land!

Me and my three boys(boyfriend and two pups) had absolutely amazing Canada Day weekend. This place gives a true glamping experience. You get a firepit and mini out side kitchen with BBQ grill(Propane provided). Also, it has a super nice trail that you can explore as well. The host was super kind and easy to communicate with. If you are planning to have a quick little getaway from the city, this is the place you want to be in for the weekend.

Weekend Trip to Ravens Valley Chickadee chalet
We visited Ravens Valley and stayed in the Chickadee Cabin. The cabin was so cute and well stocked. The site was very nice, full of beautiful flowers, birds chirping, squirrels chattering, walking trails and a pond that is bounding with activity. Booking was easy and Carmen was the perfect hostess! She met us at the site and showed us everything we needed to know and even turned the fire table on for us as it was starting to rain. We needed a peaceful retreat and were not disappointed!
