All to yourself

100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.

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 [xxxxxxxx]. Look us up on our Facebook page too.Park your RV on the gravel pad right beside the small outdoor horse arena. Your own private picnic table and comfy camp chairs are right there, ready for you to sit and relax. No hookups are available at this time. Generators are allowed. Pets are welcome. Campfires are permitted as long as there is no fire ban! The yard is full of active farming buildings and animals. Watch for farm bunnies and flying hawks. Listen to the songs of the chickens and other wild birds as they swoop around. Go for a walk through the horse pasture and down into the bush. There are plenty of areas to sit and relax or have an outdoor picnic. You can schedule a date with the horses to feed, groom or ride in one of the outdoor arenas. There are fresh eggs and garden produce for purchase, and in-season wild Saskatoons to pick on the edge of the property. In the evening enjoy a relaxing fire at your back door or in the backyard. If you like a day trip there are golf courses nearby, and the beach at Gull Lake for swimming or fishing is less than 10 minutes away. You are 15 minutes from historic downtown Lacombe. Where there are many outdoor murals, a historic walk, grocery shopping and coffee shops. Gull Lake Honey and Good Neighbor Coffee are two businesses that are less than 5 minutes down the road. If you don’t mind a bigger drive, the town of Sylvan Lake and the city of Red Deer are about a 30-minute drive away.

Had an awesome time hanging out on Mary Jean’s land. Just what we needed as a little get away before school started. Quiet little spot with a picnic table and fire pit. The stars were incredible✨The best part was hanging out with the horses and doing horse connect. My daughter loves horses and she had the opportunity to chill with them in their natural habitats. Horse connect was a fun on ground session with a horse learning how to listen and communicate with it and with the others around you The fresh eggs my daughter helped gather were a nice addition to our breakfast Highly recommend Hawk’s view to anyone and we’ll totally visit again soon Thanks!

What a beautiful setting! Mary & her husband are spectacular and very accommodating! I came into town for a hockey tournament for 4 days and camped out instead of a hotel, and I have no regrets! If you love the outdoors, chickens, horses etc.. this is the place for you! We had a great time, and we will be returning this summer! I highly recommend this site !

Our family did a little 5 day Alberta RV tour and stayed here for our final night. This was our first trying a HipCamp Farm style spot; and, we were so happy we stayed here! We booked the horseback riding add on as well for my wife and 3 year old daughter; and, this was OUTSTANDING! Mary Jean was Phenomenal with both my wife (who had some riding experience) and for our daughter (this was here FIRST time on a horse ever). Jack greeted us upon arrival and gave us a lay of the land. They have horses and chickens (which we also got farm fresh eggs from). We were welcome to wander the land and horse pastures. There is also a nice walking trail. The hospitality and stay were so unique, warm and welcoming. Nothing that could have ever been duplicated by a RV Resort type experience. We would 100% be back and, again, encourage our fellow HipCampers to stay here!
