You imitating don't want to disappoint him in any way. The pastures are huge and the animals are really well cared for and loved. I board my horse there and now that he's assimilated into the herd, he's seems happy and content. They have both indoor and outdoor arenas and storage for your tack, as well as a treed area for trail rides. They offer lessons to all levels of riders. I can't say enough good things, by far the best stable I've had the pleasure of boarding at ^_^

They also offer boarding for horses with the absolute best care. My daughter has been riding there for the past 4 years and 1 year ago I began riding horses myself. I was an extremely nervous beginner and through their experienced and knowledgeable instructors, not only have I overcome my fear of horses, I am training through their academy program. The atmosphere at the barn is so friendly, energetic and respectful. The support I have received from everyone is so appreciated! The staff and fellow riders have become my second family J.M.

Agreement was for Bunnies and Chicks for our Spring Party, the animals brought where 30 days old chickens, and full grown rabbits that stayed in a cage. No instruction to children as to how to handle animals, we ended up with a group of girls, crying and scared!! Not a pleasant experience at all.

Amazing ranch & 'summer camp' type facility with fantastic varied retreat options just a stone's…read morethrow away from Edmonton. I came here recently as a chaperon for my daughter's grade seven band camp, so I didn't get the complete summer camp experience, but I certainly got a good taste. Our 30 kid band used the Cedar Lodge as their practice space. This space was ideal, having good acoustics, was quite roomy and could have accommodated far more people, and yet was still quite cozy and was stocked with much appreciated simple refreshments. We broke the band down into sections and the kids were able to trade off in smaller groups to have some fun on the super high concrete climbing wall, as well as the the rope course with zip-line. Aside from a briefing on rules, harnesses and helmets, no training was required for the kids for any of these activities because well trained staff was there to assist them every single step of the way (staff even belayed at the climbing wall). And when one tween panicked and fell between the rungs of the rope bridge, she was not left hanging, a quick, calm and efficient rescue was underway in the blink of an eye. A hugely positive experience, most of the kids felt very confident and reached climbing goals. We didn't experience, but certainly saw multiple signs of a full ranch setup as well... the sights and smells of the horses was quite the change of pace from sitting in a Jr. High classroom all day even at a bit of a distance. We dined in the main lodge for lunch. A very cozy atmosphere. Stereotypical summer camp style in many ways, but perhaps almost more luxurious - a glamping dinning hall for sure. Very efficiently laid out was a taco salad bar on the day of our visit, with several choices to assemble together, including vegan and gluten free that everyone enjoyed. Dessert and drinks were also provided. Other amenities that I know of include camp sleeping cabins, an impressive obstacle course, a football field, and an indoor recreation area in the main lodge that had several bouldering/climbing walls. This is a fantastic place for a youth group or a corporate retreat for training and team building. Personally, I'd like to see a few more activities on the menu, but I think it's still interestingly varied, with a phenomenal location. All staff were friendly, professional, and seemed quite well trained. Every spring, they hold a sort of summer kick-off with Family Fun Day, where they open their facility to the public, admission at a very reasonable fee. (I'll post in Yelp's event calendar for 2016's event), so certainly watch out for that if you (or your kids) are the daredevil type who enjoys nature. They also have an event planned for August 27 & 28th, 2016 for their 50th anniversary. Staff alumni are invited to attend - there's an rsvp page set up on their website. A last note, the lodges do display several plaques noting that they are a 'Christian' facility, as well some crosses on display - obviously most people would not have a problem with this, but it's worth noting as some groups might not find it suits their needs.
