Step into a rustic western movie on a working guest ranch with this stunning 1970’s, hand-built log home.
Sleeping up to 10 guests, this western-inspired home is the perfect family experience to understand what life was really like in the “good ol’ days”. With antique cowboy decor you’ll feel like you’re relaxing on the Yellowstone.
Cozy up to your wood burning fire place with a glass of wine and plenty of stories to tell for generations. Enjoy making memories on the property’s large guest space, watching kids play or simply enjoying the views with a warm cup of coffee.
This beautiful property is embedded with ranch history. What was once home to the Robertson’s, became the very large and well known Turner Valley Ranch in the 70’s and then the Bar N in the 90’s. This log-building was either home to the cow boss’ family or the the bunk-house for the cowboys working the ranch.
The home has been preserved to reflect the cowboy life. With 2900sqft of aged, rustic wood throughout, tongue and groove wood ceilings, excellent views, 5 spacious bedrooms, two large living areas, a wood burning fireplace, a full kitchen, a large 10-person dinning area, two full baths, one half bath, a large mudroom, tucked away kids play-area and sweeping views of the valley and historic red barn, this property has many stories to tell.
Located at the foothills of Kananaskis, you are mere minutes away from hiking, trail riding or snowshoeing the Sheep River Falls, Sandy Mcnabb or Blue Rock trails. Amenities of the small town of Diamond Valley are 6 minutes away, with locally-owned grocery stores, outdoor pools and award-winning restaurants, breweries and the Eau Claire distillery for a fun day out. The ranch is 90 minutes from Banff area and a 45 minute drive to Calgary’s inner-city or Stampede grounds. However, after experiencing the mountain and valley views of this property, you may never want to leave.
For a small fee, we can accommodate horse-lovers who wish to board their horses and park their horse trailer during their stay (please contact us directly for horse arrangements prior to booking).
We ask that guests stay in the permitted guest area, as our working ranch shares the property with longhorn cattle, horses and lots of wildlife.
We offer a menu of high-end, farm-raised beef to our guests. Beef can be ready upon arrival for guests who pre-order with our ranch.
We look forward to sharing this beautiful ranch with you, your loved ones, friends or family.
