Calgary House | Beautiful log home, 6 minutes from Kananaskis

5 Bedroom House in Calgary, Foothills county

Step into a rustic western movie on a working guest ranch with this stunning 1970โ€™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 โ€œgood olโ€™ daysโ€. With antique cowboy decor youโ€™ll feel like youโ€™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 propertyโ€™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 Robertsonโ€™s, became the very large and well known Turner Valley Ranch in the 70โ€™s and then the Bar N in the 90โ€™s. This log-building was either home to the cow bossโ€™ 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 Calgaryโ€™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.
Other rules and guidelines:
We love having children experience the great out doors, but please be aware that we are a working ranch with animals, ponds, and other hazards that can be dangerous at times. Your CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES.
We ask that our guests do not enter any barns, pens or fenced areas. We live in another home on the ranch so there is a good chance you will see us around the ranch, If you have any questions about our animals, property, or fun things to do in the area, please feel free to ask us and we will do our best to answer your questions.
Guests who would like to bring their horses and horse trailer for their stay are welcome. Our ranch is located 7 minutes from Kananaskis and all the scenic trails it has to offer, please ask us about our horse boarding options prior to booking.
Parking is available on the driveway around the ranch house. Tents, campers, or trailers aside from guests bringing their horses are not permitted on the property.
We love all animals but we are a working ranch, and to help keep all of our animals calm and happy we have a NO PET policy during your stay.
Our ranch is on a water well and septic system, although there is lots of water available we ask that guests are mind full of their water usage to not stress the system. Only toilet paper is safe to put down the toilets. Kleenex, feminine products and all other items are to be put in the garage cans provided in the bathrooms.
Parties, photo shoots or events of any kind are not permitted.

We ask that our guests put all garbage in the provided bin in the boot room of the ranch house as to not attract unwanted four legged friends.

Summary: This is the second time we have stayed at this property in the winter. Plenty of room for our family to be together and enjoy Christmas. The bedrooms are large with comfy beds and so nice to have a large kitchen/dining area to prepare and enjoy meals. The fireplace really added to the cozy feel.

Summary: We travelled from the Coast for our niece's wedding on the Labour Day Weekend. This home provided lots of room for us all to enjoy and bedrooms were situated for our little grandkids to sleep peacefully while the adults visited. Plenty of room outside to enjoy the beautiful Alberta landscape. The host was available for any questions. And the stars were amazing!! Thank you Evan, we had an amazing time at your beautiful ranch house.

Summary: Evan's ranch house was perfect for our group of ten. Very clean and in a good location in the foothills. We had great bbq steaks purchased from Evan. There are walking and hiking trails 30 minutes down road. Short drive to hwy 40 and close to ctrain to stampede. A big plus was the grandparents had master bedroom at one end of ranch and the kids had 4 bedrooms at the other end. Thanks Evan for letting us stay at the ranch.

Summary: What a wonderful place for our family to gather. The western theme was perfect. We loved watching the cattle just to the northโ€”they loved watching us too. :) Mountain bluebirds, nearby horse riding, golf, and just relaxing inside in the comfy rooms. Highly recommended!
