A working Horse and Cattle Ranch that raises grass fed/ grass finished beef with regenerative agriculture practices, our motto is "Raised Naturally". With rolling pastures, wooded trails and a 12 acre wetland you can spend time with the horses, walk the pastures and learn about regenerative agriculture, get up close to our herd of cattle, or go birding and attempt to locate the over 40 bird species on the ranch. Located just west of Lessard Lake the boat launch for fishing, canoeing, paddleboarding or any other water activity is less that 5 minutes from the Ranch. Relax at night around the fire pit as the animals graze nearby (The horses will other come for a visit)Park your RV near the Ranch Headquarters or nearby the outdoor horse arena. Feeling more adventurous? Select any spot on our 149 acres to set up your tent (access will be on foot or on the ranch side by side). We can accommodate vehicles up to 45ft in length and the sites are flat. Electrical hookup is available. Take a riding lesson on one of our fantastic ranch horses, go birding to locate the over 40 species on the ranch, hike the rolling pastures, and wooded trails and learn about regenerative agriculture. If you are a brave soul venture into the wetland and the pond area (bring your hip waders) Are you into water sports? The boat launch at Lessard lake is less than 5 minutes away. At night enjoy the peace and quiet around the fire pit. Let the beauty and serenity of the ranch wash your worries away.

We have the best time at Adam's ranch! The kids loved running around the hay bails (as did our dog). Adam taught us lots about ranching, horses, and swapped some stories with us at the fire. Hands down a fantastic experience that the whole family loved!

Beautiful Place, Beautiful People

30 ft travel trailer · With kids

We had the BEST stay at Sky Hound Ranch. We felt like we were staying with old friends the whole time. Half the time we forgot we had just met Adam and the neighbors. Us and the kids were treated like we had been there all along. Adam and Matt blessed the kids with some horse rides. For two of the kids it was their first time on a horse and for one it was the first time she remembers. The area is quiet and peaceful. The view is beautiful. The people are the best part. This was a slice of heaven on our way to Alaska. Thank you for making the last few days so very wonderful. I wanted to do something special for them before we left but my lame self spent the entire day in meetings for work.

Would definitely recommend!

Tent

My husband and I went here for a super short one night trip. Adam was lovely and so was his property. We opted to find our own tent spot and ended up having the entire back pasture to ourselves.Our dogs loved it! We had a great time and will definitely be back!

Great stay. Kids had a blast

32 ft campervan · With kids

Adam was very thoughtful, showing us around, telling my daughter all about the horses and even taking the time to let her ride. Area was great - we had a large quiet field to ourselves. Would definitely stay again if we come back through the area.

Home on the Range

Tent · With kids

We loved Sky Hound Ranch! Adam was super personable and very relaxed. His horses were amazing and well behaved, and we had a lot of fun watching the cattle in the fields. We were offered a tour of the ranch in their side-by-side which was cool. Although the horses are for more experienced riders, Adam gave my little girl some quality horse time anyways! The site for camping was well maintained, lots of space to venture off, and there is fire wood available for the evenings. Be prepared to go 'rustic'! It's an open air shower, but it comes with hot water! You can also cook on the camp stove if needed. Thanks so much for the visit! I would def recommend this camp for anyone looking for peace and quiet.

Camping with my Labrador

Tent · With pets

What a unique and wonderful place to stay. Adam was a fantastic host, and I thoroughly enjoyed camping at his place; the sound of the wild lulled me into a sound sleep after a day on the road. I also had a fantastic time being shown around the property on horseback, even if my Labrador didn’t know what to make of the cows as we rode by 😂. 10/10 would stay again and I highly encourage folks to book a stay with Adam.
