Really nice property. Perfect spot, had the whole camping area to ourselves. Very nice host, and beautiful property. Long gravel road out to property but we had a small car and still worked well.

Quiet, rustic and a great fire pit, Worthy of a respectful campfire.
We drive a 25' motorhome to the site. About 20 minutes each way over some primitive roads, but we found it worth it.
I understand that Justin has owned the property for a little over a year and I have no doubt there will be improvements season after season.

Very beautiful stay. Craig the host was very helpful and ensured we were comfortable and ready for our time there, even though we arrived after dark.
Lovely indoor camp fire, musical instruments, and a very comfortable bed.
Definitely would love to go back and would highly recommend.

1 night at Rocky Mountains Glamping
It was my first time camping and it will be my most memorable stay
Corey is a great host, she posted all the instructions on how to arrive at the site in advance.
There are 4 sites but when we arrived there were no other campers which made our trip more adventurous
We stayed at site #1, the bed is comfy and the view early morning is breathtaking
Please take the woods bundle pack from Corey. It will be cheaper for you and you can use as much as you can

The site was super cute and welcoming! The tent and bed were super spacious and comfortable. There are fire pits scattered around the site and they even have one down near the creek with chairs and fairy lights! Absolutely delightful stay and my boyfriend loved it for his surprise gift!

This was so lovely! The tents are clean and tidy, and very cozy and warm. The bed and bedding were toasty and comfy. The land was beautiful and the small creek was so refreshing.
The outhouse was very tidy and nicely organized, but a bit smellier: it was right after a long weekend, so no surprises after lots of use!
It can be a bit tricky to find in the dark and there’s no GPS, so be sure to read the detailed directions very closely BEFORE you lose service, unlike me 😅
Overall, a lovely little getaway space, peaceful and remote, but close to town for needs, and just a quick drive to Waterton.
I also found the host very helpful and responsive which ruled :)

Second time at Corey’s place. Who needs the calm app when you can camp here ! Tucked in a beautiful meadow down by a creek, a little piece of nature, waiting for you.
Thank you Corey for this great spot to spend some downtime at.
We will be back again !

Our time at Cept Ranch was wonderful, it is so quiet, beautiful views, the lake was wonderful. The ride in is a bit rough, but totally doable. If you enjoy being off grid, this place is fabulous. The host Justin was very accommodating and super great to deal with.

We had a great time camping here—everything is spread out, quiet, and casual, right beside a beautiful creek. The big firepit right by the creek was perfect for our group. Looking forward to coming back in the future.
