We are a working cattle ranch about 10 minutes drive off of HiWay #1. You’re surrounded by wildlife and outdoor activities just as you step out of the door. We offer lots of privacy. During most of your stay, you will think there’s no one on the ranch but you! We’re close to a golf course, about 40 minutes to Canmore, one hour to Banff, and 40 minutes to Downtown Calgary. Perfect for day trips for activities other than camping. Our cows are tame, but not house pets, especially when they have their calves near by! They’ll be curious, but then go back to munching on grass.

The place was beautiful full of cows and very secluded, I also saw some deer! The toulet was very confortable and had everything necessary to use it. A true ranch experience!

The directions were clear. Our site offered lots of space and feeling of privacy. A firewood, picnic table, water, a map and information sheet were provided. At the outhouse, we found everything what was included on the site description (toilet paper, sanitizer, peet moss). James was very responsive and helpful. We also enjoyed biking the ranch territory with a stop at the lake where we found a few canoes and lifejackets. We had a lovely stay!

Loved it
We loved this campsite. Super friendly host and we even had some wood chopped for us. Easy to find and accessible. Amazing little piece of land and nice and private. Would definitely recommend.

Best spot for nature and animals!!!
Amazing site! In nature with cows walking around everywhere. Very refreshing, easy to get to, great and accomodating hosts!! Lake accessible by a 15-20mins walk through the property. Plenty of space to let the dogs run (just mind the cows.) Also, site is close to town (30mins drive) and to all national park (60-120mins depending where you need to go.) Me and my dog stayed for almost 10days and both had a blast!!
