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!

Calgary, AB · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
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!

Slave Lake, AB · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Homegrown Campground and Cabins is nestled on the north shore of Lesser Slave Lake and I offer cozy camping areas with private lakefront views of Dog Island.
I currently have 4 camp sites, two of which have decks, and another site with one tiny cabin.
Please read:
The property is also a Bison farm and I have two dogs, Luna and Pyro, who are the campground security managers. They love people and other furry friends! Please note that this campground/farm are my dogs home, and they may wonder over at some point and say hello. Please do not feed them, and use good judgment if you are traveling with dogs of your own. Aggressive dogs will not be tolerated. If my dogs overstay their welcome, or if you simply aren't a dog person, please let me know and I can come retrieve them.
Potable water is available, directions to it will be made available after checking in. Also, if any of the sites, garabge bin or outhouse needs attention, PLEASE let me know. I ask that you don't leave bags of garbage on the ground after checking out since birds, dogs, or bears will take that as an ivite to make a mess looking for a snack. I do have a full time job that prevents me from being around 100% of the time, so with your help, we can ensure a clean and safe campground for everyone to enjoy. There is a metal dumpster at the end of the road that can be used if needed.
Points of interest nearby include:
Lesser Slave Lake Provincial Park, Devonshire Beach. 5-10 minutes away. You can't say you've been to Slave Lake with out saying you've been to Devonshire. Endless amounts of clean white "squeaky" sand and shallow waters perfect for summer beach days. You will never find a rock on the beach or in the water. The southern end of the park consists of sand ridges and blowout dunes, behind which are a series of marshes and wetlands.
Marten Mountain View Point (Lily Lake Trail). 15 minutes away. By far the best view of the lake that you will ever get! At 1020 meters, Marten Mountain is the highest point of land for hundreds of square kilometers. From the Marten Mountain Viewpoint, you can take in a truly breathtaking view of Lesser Slave Lake and its forested slopes. The view point is also the trail head to get to Lily Lake, a medium difficulty 4 km round trip. The cozy lake is stocked with trout and is an excellent afternoon adventure.
Boreal Centre for Bird Conservation. 5 minutes away. It is one of Canada's northernmost bird observatories and is one of the only boreal forest bird observatories in the world. Nice walking trails and a great information center with stunning architecture.
Gilwood Golf Course. 2 minutes away. Neighboring the property is an 18 hole golf course with a clubhouse and restaurant.
Activities nearby include fishing, hiking, wildlife watching, swimming, and so much more!

Experience a Stay at Go Hard Ranch

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.

Located only 45 minutes from Edmonton, 5km west of Onoway (grocery, fuel, car wash, dump station, restaurants).
Forest Retreat is a good fit if you’re looking for something more ‘down to earth’..
humble AND comfortable, with great indoor and outdoor spaces.
I have been an organic market gardener for 25 years and now am downsizing the farm to welcome visitors to experience the Land, cabins and event space here.
I enjoy creating cozy, welcoming spaces that invite you to slow down, breathe deeply, relax, explore outdoors or stay in and recharge.
The buildings are not new but they are well cared for. The outside and inside areas are clean and tidy, while also showing their age and good use…just like those of us who live here :D
The well water is plentiful, potable and very rich in minerals. It leaves orange staining and a white residue where the water sits (think toilet/shower/sinks). It is cleaned thoroughly.
I provide bottles of reverse osmosis water in all cabins for drinking and to use in kettles/coffee makers.
Shared full kitchen/washroom with shower available, walking trails (bush trails), screened shared gazebo, hammocks and picnic tables.
Now with a pool! (subject to conditions).
Separately, the ‘Beaver lodge’ and Camping sites are located down river on 5 acres of mowed grassland next to 10 acres of wetland. Room for multiple mobile campers.
‘Rustic’ sites. Bottled water. No power.
Beaver lodge has sleeping (foam mattresses) for 4, camping stove, kettle, frypan, 2 chairs/table).
Bring your own everything else.
Like camping but MUCH easier and enjoyable!
No kitchen/washroom access. Pit toilet.
Home to Willow, poplar and Spruce in a thriving ecosystem. Excellent Bird watching, abundant wildlife and access to the Sturgeon River (subject to conditions).
Easily accessed, only minutes from a main highway. Nearby large lakes and rivers and hiking trails. Sun and shade, dark sky at night.

We had such an amazing time staying at the shack over the weekend! Even when the thunder and rain storm hit, we were able to watch the lightning with total amazement and had so much fun running inside as fast as we could to escape the rain. Carmen was an incredible owner and recommended that we head out to Prairie Gardens, which had so many beautiful plants, flowers, and a fantastic goat petting zoo. We also checked out the 100 year old store she suggested, which was awesome. It truly was the date of a lifetime and we will definitely be going back at the end of the summer when the mosquitoes aren't so crazed! Thank you so much for this experience Carmen!

Weekend Trip to Collinswood Retreat
The yurt was a perfect mix of camping and glamping. I needed a weekend away that didn’t require all the work that usually goes with it and this was exactly that. Geri and Pat provided wood and the site had a bbq, plates, cutlery, some pots and pans, and a battery to charge my phone, and the yurt was so comfortable. My dogs and I got to explore the network of trails on the beautiful property and I loved that the yurt was secluded in the forest. I brought my own camping chair just for my own comfort but there are chairs and a picnic table. The outhouse was clean and didn’t smell. A tornado touched down north of the property (near Rocky Mountain House) and they made sure to message me to let me know that that was happening and that I could shelter with them if I need to. Just amazing hosts! I will be coming back!

I have used HipCamp a few times now but this trip was intended to be something special. A trip for me and my two young boys while my Mrs and daughter went on their beach holiday. We planned to go fishing and then to a campsite to overnight and hopefully see the stars and make some core memories. This lived up to it and more.
First to the location. This is located in the Boreal forest and when I say in I mean right inside of it. Besides the drive there being breath taking (we saw a bear on the side of the road and loads of wildlife) the drive into the site was fantastic. There is a beautiful shared space for camp fires right next to the hot tub and shower areas as you arrive.
Our host Dale and his wife were fantastic. They showed us to the cabin which looked like something out of a movie. It was right next to a scenic pond. We brought some of the fish we caught and Dale provided us with some plates and cutlery and helped us with some water.
As we got settled in and finished dinner we had a lovely walk around the site and the boys came across a mink that had a run in with the cat. They had their own little animal rescue experience and returned it to the wild. That night we were expecting rain and so we knew we wouldn’t see any stars which was disappointing given how dark it was. We were instead blessed with a lightning and thunder show which we took in from the comfort of the hot tub. All in all we had an amazing experience. Hoping to return fall/winter

We had a wonderful weekend stay at Hidden Springs, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The property is peaceful, beautifully maintained, and the perfect place to relax and unwind while still offering plenty of activities for the whole family.
Barbara is an exceptional host who truly goes above and beyond to make her guests feel welcome. She thought of every little detail to ensure we had a comfortable stay. When the mosquitoes became active in the evening, she proactively provided mosquito coils, and knowing we wanted to watch the World Cup, she even offered us her personal laptop so we wouldn’t miss the match. Her kindness, generosity, and genuine care for her guests made our stay even more memorable.
A special mention goes to her friendly dog, Fox, who quickly became a favorite with our kids. Fox spent time playing with them, and they absolutely loved every moment. The trampoline was another huge hit, keeping the kids entertained for hours.
One of the highlights of our stay was the sauna experience. It was incredibly relaxing and the perfect way to end the day. If you’re planning to stay at Hidden Springs, I highly recommend booking the sauna—it is absolutely worth it and adds a special touch to the overall experience.
We left Hidden Springs feeling refreshed and already talking about coming back. Thank you, Barbara, for your outstanding hospitality and for creating such a warm, welcoming place for families to enjoy. We highly recommend Hidden Springs.

The hostess/host go above & beyond with their hospitality & the pride of this property really shows with all of the lovely details & care that’s been put in. We will definitely be returning & I highly recommend this wonderful gem!

1 night at Collinswood Retreat
What a beautiful relaxing spot!! The Happy Hut was the perfect size for me as a solo traveler and the bed was super comfortable. The outdoor bath was amazing, it took a while to fill to a comfortable level but that’s expected! Bathing in nature is a must! The bathroom was close by and very welcoming for an outdoor bathroom. No harsh smells and very clean.
The Happy Hut wasn’t as private as I thought however this actually worked out for me in the end, as a solo female traveler it was comforting to know I wasn’t completely isolated in the woods! Very much enjoyed my relaxed evening sitting by a fire and soaking up nature.

3 nights at Rough Diamond Ranch Alberta
Laura has a great set up for people to camp lodge and enjoy the land all the animals. Laura makes you feel not only at home but part of the community. The rolling foothills, the beautiful sunsets. It feels like a time that is gone, but you can have the chance to enjoy
