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 and cats 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 and the cats 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 piece of heaven with you and you are helping to support our animals and their heaven.
Chickens are "True" Free Range and hand fed every morning. Eggs are $10 a dozen to pay for their feed. :)
Every spring the rain tends to cause ruts and washes out some of the road on the way to the back forty where the meadow is. We gather rocks on the property to fill the ditches but the early part of the year the roads can be bumpy. Please ask the conditions of the road when you book if you have concerns. Thanks!

Red Deer, AB · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Collin’s Wood is a very special place indeed. The land was bought by my grandfather years ago when he moved to Canada from England and wanted to chase his log cabin dream. Our main cabin my family built from trees on the land, entirely by hand. We have photos of the trees being cut and the bark being peeled off. Since then, we’ve made many changes out there, we now have a guest cabin that used to be a Teacheridge (back when teachers would live in a one room building beside the school), eventually it was turned into a cafe and now it sits on our land as a guest cabin. This place is so magical. With a quarter section of land I grew up running through the forest with my friends and learning about what the land has to offer. My parents have spent every spare weekend out there making this paradise into what it is today. All the buildings were created by my family through labour and love. We’ve hosted weddings, and family reunions. We hope you appreciate how special this place is. Come see for yourself!

Edson, AB · 20 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Go Hard Ranch is a place where the world slows down and the land does the talking. Once the Rehn family’s homestead, its history still lives in the old wash house, the cook house, and the trails shaped by generations who worked this ground with their hands and hearts. Today, the ranch carries that legacy forward while welcoming new stories beneath wide Alberta skies.
Set above the quiet sweep of Chip Lake, wild, open, and often forgotten, the ranch feels remote yet sits just minutes off the Yellowhead. It’s close enough for an easy escape, far enough that the noise of life falls away the moment your boots hit the dirt.
Authentic hand‑painted tipis, cozy cabins, and a historic log homestead cabin offer stays that feel rooted and real. Each space invites you to slow down: watch the horses graze, wander the trails, breathe in the stillness, and let the wind and birdsong set the pace. Wildlife moves freely here, and sunrise over the lake is worth waking early for. Evenings settle softly around the fire, and nights stretch wide with stars. Whether you’re gathering with friends, sharing a quiet moment with someone you love, or exploring with family, the ranch becomes whatever you need, adventure, peace, or a place to simply be.
Go Hard Ranch is rugged, warm, and unforgettable. A place where history hums through the timber, where the sky feels endless, and where every stay leaves a little dust on your boots and a lot of calm in your bones.

Edson, AB · 20 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Go Hard Ranch is a place where the world slows down and the land does the talking. Once the Rehn family’s homestead, its history still lives in the old wash house, the cook house, and the trails shaped by generations who worked this ground with their hands and hearts. Today, the ranch carries that legacy forward while welcoming new stories beneath wide Alberta skies.
Set above the quiet sweep of Chip Lake, wild, open, and often forgotten, the ranch feels remote yet sits just minutes off the Yellowhead. It’s close enough for an easy escape, far enough that the noise of life falls away the moment your boots hit the dirt.
Authentic hand‑painted tipis, cozy cabins, and a historic log homestead cabin offer stays that feel rooted and real. Each space invites you to slow down: watch the horses graze, wander the trails, breathe in the stillness, and let the wind and birdsong set the pace. Wildlife moves freely here, and sunrise over the lake is worth waking early for. Evenings settle softly around the fire, and nights stretch wide with stars. Whether you’re gathering with friends, sharing a quiet moment with someone you love, or exploring with family, the ranch becomes whatever you need, adventure, peace, or a place to simply be.
Go Hard Ranch is rugged, warm, and unforgettable. A place where history hums through the timber, where the sky feels endless, and where every stay leaves a little dust on your boots and a lot of calm in your bones.

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!

Beautiful, serene, quiet, very well maintained. We could see every star in the sky, and it is so close to Elk Island Park, it made sightseeing easy! A lot of coyotes at night - mind your pets and bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper - that was the only sound we heard. Would highly recommend this spot.

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!😊

We loved our stay at Blue Rein! Had lots of space to ourselves and it was very peaceful aside from the occasional moos or neighs from the nearby animals. This is the perfect place if you’re an animal lover as you’ll be greeted by dogs, cows, horses, pigs, and chickens. There’s also a great communal building with washrooms, a kitchen sink , and some fun things like a speaker and pool table. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great Site and hosts! With only being a short drive from Edmonton, this is a hidden gem. Kara and Dan are quick to respond to inquiries and requests. The grounds are clean, well maintained, and vibrant. The water feature is aerated so the is no stagnant water smell. The wood totes are of a good size for the cost and come with some kindling. The wood was cut into good size pieces and dry! The farm fresh eggs were some of the best eggs I've had in a while with large yolks.
The campsites are well spaced out with some co-located for groups. There is obvious signs of improvement and tree planting which speaks to Kara and Dan's dedication to being great hosts.
I camped with a large group and a dog which needed 2 sites. Kara and Dan made great suggestions which improved our experience.
I look forward to booking next season.
Thank you, Kara and Dan!!!!
