Collinswood Retreat

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents160 acres · Red Deer, AB

Collin’s Wood is a very special place indeed. The land was bought by my grandfather years ago when he moved to Canada from England and wanted to chase his log cabin dream. Our main cabin my family built from trees on the land, entirely by hand. We have photos of the trees being cut and the bark being peeled off. Since then, we’ve made many changes out there, we now have a guest cabin that used to be a Teacheridge (back when teachers would live in a one room building beside the school), eventually it was turned into a cafe and now it sits on our land as a guest cabin. This place is so magical. With a quarter section of land I grew up running through the forest with my friends and learning about what the land has to offer. My parents have spent every spare weekend out there making this paradise into what it is today. All the buildings were created by my family through labour and love. We’ve hosted weddings, and family reunions. We hope you appreciate how special this place is. Come see for yourself!

Glamping in Alberta guide

Overview

Glamping in Alberta is often called "comfort camping," and the trend is so popular that Alberta Parks has 17 comfort camping sites across its public park network. These include cabins at Castle Provincial Park, huts at Cypress Hills Provincial Park, “wall tents” at Dinosaur Provincial Park, yurts at Miquelon Lake Provincial Park, and tipis at Sir Winston Churchill Provincial Park. Those exploring spots like Jasper National Park can stay in an oTENTik, some of which are pet-friendly and/or wheelchair accessible. Aside from public parks, Alberta glamping offerings include remote cabins, glamping pods, canvas tents, and retro Airstream trailers with king-sized beds, ensuite bathrooms, and luxe amenities. Backcountry glamping getaways might require a hike or some crosscountry skiing before you check in, but upon arrival, you're likely to be rewarded with mountain views, fire pits, and lots of privacy.
