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!

Wildwood, AB · 19 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 have 156 acres of incredible farm land for you to enjoy.
The parking pad is right across from the house, to the left of the driveway. Back in or drive in, there's lots of room to do either. You are welcome to enjoy a campfire, we have lots of wood available. Let us know if you need the picnic table, sometimes we have it up by the house.
Once you are settled in, take your time to walk around. You can birdwatch from your campsite, the feeders by the house are a busy bird haven.
Walk to the gate and check out the pond and the grazing horses. Ask how to be safe as you walk in the pasture. Pet them if they agree to it, or walk down the trail into the forest. There are many trails to follow down there. You are welcome to use the firepit and picnic area in the bottom. Listen for the birds, we have many different sparrows, warblers and other birds that don't stop singing. If you are lucky, you might see some deer or great horned owls.
The yard is open to the big sky. Watch storms come and go, see the stars and some nights you might see the northern lights. Bring your bug spray, the mosquitoes can be aggressive. Listen to the frogs, the coyotes and other country sounds.
We have fresh eggs every day from our chickens and fresh veggies in season from our garden.
We also have an incredible life skills program called Horse Connect, that you can book an afternoon with a group. You can learn more about it at horseconnect.ca. Look us up on our Facebook page too.

A fantastic weekend get away, highly recommend it for a family. I went with my adult daughter we both have high stress jobs, extremely peaceful, caring hosts, great recharge we both felt we were gone for more then 3 days!
Very visible things for children to entertain themselves such as swingset, bikes and such, things to explore. I told my daughter a scavenger hunt or can you find the squirrel on the swing would entertain youngs ones ....escape the screens, beautiful sunset! Farm fresh eggs! Free firewood recommend leaving a "tip" for chopping the wood, a kind gesture to the host.

This place is ethereal, you really connect with and experience nature at its finest. There are plenty of trails to explore and each camp site has its own ambiance. We are certainly ecstatic to revisit this gem for our future camps again.
Not only is this place wonderful, but the owners are the kindest and most attentive family you’ll meet. Our vehicle had an issue with starting/running so we decided to extend another night (and try out a different camp site too lol) and the owners we’re super helpful, they drove my partner out to get supplies we needed and lent us tools and equipments to get the vehicle started again, even helping figure out the issue. Staying here was such a serene experience.😌

The Shady Nook is the best spot I've ever camped at. The property was huge and every part of it was well-kept, our camping spot was very spacious and we didn't get bothered by anybody. The stand-in owner for the day was very nice and helpful, and even just taking a walk down the trails and between the camping spots was a trip highlight. The nook has everything you need, from toilets to outlets to showers and we didn't need to pay any additional fees for any of it. The spot was very affordable too. Just make sure you book a site that's an appropriate size for your group, as many of the spots seemed to be made for only 1-2 people.

We had an exceptional, deeply moving experience staying in Laura’s beautiful walk-out basement. It felt like a cozy sanctuary, offering breathtaking, peaceful views from the patio that instantly brought calm to our souls. Laura is the most warm and welcoming host; she truly treated us like family.The truest magic was watching our toddler live out her ultimate dream. She spent endless, joyful hours with the horses and formed the sweetest bond with Laura's dogs, Sunny and Sher, who were sooooo cuddly and gentle with her. Watching them bond against that stunning Alberta backdrop was pure bliss. Our daughter left incredibly happy, and we left with hearts full of gratitude. This place is pure magic!
