The best dog-friendly camping in Rocky View

·

Bringing your dog to Rocky View? You’re in luck—there are over 110 pet-friendly campsites here, with grassy foothills to roam and wide-open prairie sky overhead. You’ll find sites where dogs can tag along for fishing by the river, hiking wooded trails, or just kicking back by the fire. Most spots offer toilets, showers, and let you light a campfire. Average price per night sits at $55, but you’ll spot options as low as $35 if you book early. For local favourites, check out Cattle Ranch in the Foothills (161 reviews), Rough Diamond Ranch Alberta (70 reviews), and The Point At Alborak (60 reviews). Locals love the dawn chorus of meadowlarks and the easy access to wildlife-watching right from your tent. Bring plenty of water, pack your dog’s lead, and get ready for a weekend where four-legged companions are always welcome.

Calgary, AB · 6 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!
