74km from Claresholm · 2 sites · Lodging · Calgary, AB
The property is located in the beautiful Alberta Foothills on a hillside overlooking the valleys, hills and with breathtaking views of the Alberta Rocky Mountains. There are 67 acres to explore with trails, a Wild West town boardwalk, a garden for munching and a multitude of local wildlife including deer, moose, eagles, great horned owls and even the odd black bear sighting. The are wild berries to pick in late July all over the property and firepits to sit around and watch a billion stars at night. This property is a small Bed and Breakfast with only 2 glamping units and one luxury suite. That equals no crowds! But don't fear, we are within a 1 to 25 minute drive of 5 different towns all with their own charm. The area is known for ranching, hiking, the film industry, great food and award winning distilleries and breweries.

Weekend Trip to Blue Rein Ranch
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!

Weekend Trip to Blue Rein Ranch
This was an amazing little ranch and the perfect place to set up a tent. The dogs were so kind and playful, and Wrangler stayed up to look over us as we had our fire. He was a very good boy, and this was a very good campsite!

Tenting with Blue Rein was amazing! The property is beautiful, with accessible amenities and super quick access to Fort Macleod. All of the animals were super friendly and the dogs made the property feel much safer, especially for a solo traveller. Highly recommend doing the ranch tour.

We had a great time camping here. Conner was very friendly & gave us a riding lesson on his horse Stardust. There were 3 big friendly dogs, a litter of puppies, pigs, chickens - so many animals! The site was nice & quiet and we really enjoyed the fire pit with wood supplied.

Weekend Trip to Finnish Off-Grid Foothills Cabin
If you expect for quiet off grid cabin, this is a place to stay. We stayed 2 nights in March aimed to go to Waterton National Park but wanting to stay in quiet forest feeling. Only 45 min to the national park. At this time, expect the snow still pouring to the ground, but this camp has a decent heat and inside camping stove as well as generator for the lights. Also a dog friendly cabin and our dog can go around the cabin off leashed (with our watch) since no other cabin around.
