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.

1.6km from Edson · 11 sites
Edson RV Park & Campground gives you a relaxed, well-kept spot right on the edge of Edson, Alberta, with all the conveniences of town just a short drive away.
Set up on a fully serviced RV site with power, water and sewer, or pitch a tent, then settle into a quiet, tree-lined setting that backs onto the local golf course. Restrooms, hot showers, laundry and Wi-Fi keep things comfortable whether you're here for one night or for an extended stay.
When you're ready to explore, you can head out to nearby parks and natural areas within about 10 minutes' drive for hiking, canoeing, wildlife spotting and fishing. Golf is right next door, and the wider region offers plenty of space for outdoor adventures.
If you'd rather stay close, town is just a few minutes away with a swimming pool and waterslides, a skatepark, tennis courts, a cinema and a bowling alley, plus groceries, fuel and restaurants so you can top up on supplies and treats.
Back at camp, each site has access to firepits and picnic areas, and there's a small on-site store for basics, making it easy to spend your evenings around the fire without having to go far.
Open all year and just off Highway 16, the campground works for road trippers, workers and holidaymakers alike, with friendly hosts and a simple check-in.

A lovely site next to Adrian’s house and would highly recommend for a stay in Hinton.

Adrian met us as we pulled in and told us we were at the right spot. He showed us where we could park and told us the grassy area was ours to use. He offered us whatever we needed to make our stay pleasant. Later in the evening he and his son had to move the ducks and goose to the barn. They checked with us to make sure we were ok with that. Afterwards we had a great visit with both of them. The place was very relaxing. Definitely a great host and a great place to stay.

Great little camping spot at Adrian’s place. It’s our second time camping there and gives us easy access to Jasper and the Hinton bike park. Super friendly host. Great eggs that he sells.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay on Adrian’s land. Adrian and his family made us feel very welcome. We loved seeing them round up the ducks and geese each evening, and even got to hold some recently hatched baby ducks. We purchased fresh chicken eggs which were delicious and dry firewood that allowed us to have a wonderful fire one evening. Great communication from host, easy parking with private space and conveniently located close to Jasper National Park. Highly recommend!

We booked Go Hard Ranch for a 1 night stop over and loved it so much that we booked at second night. Beautiful property and facilities (loved all the effort that has been put in and attention to detail!). We chatted to the family that owns the ranch and they were all lovely and helpful, they delivered fire wood direct to our site as well.
Would be a perfect place to take your horse for a weekend getaway and make use of their yards and beautiful trails!

Where to go
Parkland County
To the east of Edson is Parkland County and Pembina River Provincial Park. The public campground there has both serviced and unserviced sites, with access to the river for fishing and tubing. There are also tiny homes, glamping and private Hipcamp sites to pitch your tent scattered throughout the county.
Hinton Region
Following the Yellowhead Highway west for a little less than an hour brings you to the doorstep of the Rocky Mountains and the town of Hinton. It’s a great spot for mountain bikers and rock climbers, plus there are nice trails for horseback riding, all-terrain vehicles, and hiking. Stay in a cozy log cabin, bring your RV, or find a spot to tent in the foothills.
Jasper National Park
Jasper is a popular year round destination. It has several campgrounds with varying degrees of service. Whistlers Campground is by far the largest, at 781 sites. From there it goes all the way to rustic backcountry where you can hike in and chances of even hearing other campers are low. Over the summer months reservations are booked months in advance and first come first serve sites fill up quickly.
When to go
Summers in Edson are the best time to visit. Campgrounds are generally closed in the winter (end of September until mid-May.) Combine the high elevation of Edson with its northern latitude and you get cold winters with lots of snow. That’s good news for snowshoers and Nordic skiers, but if you are looking to camp, you are better off to keep to May through September, and even then, be prepared for evenings that may be chilly.
