Nestled on 34,000 expansive acres along the Red Deer River in Bindloss, Alberta, Bar Diamond Guest Ranch is a working ranch just ninety minutes north of Medicine Hat and 3½ hours east of Calgary.
Owned by Jim & Carol Hern, who run about 700 Commercial Angus Cattle on two different ranches, the ranch is a place where harmony with the land, learning from nature, and knowing your neighbors are a way of life. Here, we eat well and know how to have a good time. Leave your worries in the city and find peace at Bar Diamond Ranch.
Bunk down in comfortable, modernized rooms within our historic 121-year-old log ranch house. Start your day with hearty family-style meals prepared by our chef, using wholesome farm-fresh ingredients.
Spend your days exploring the spectacular Badlands landscapes, experiencing the warm neighborly welcome of the small prairie towns that surround us. Take a few days to lay down your worries and immerse yourself in the tranquility of the prairie.
This land has a rich history, with over 600 Blackfoot teepee rings, two medicine wheels, and an ancient vision quest site to explore. Or, enjoy a peaceful saunter in the company of eagles, herons, antelope, deer, and elk.
In the evening, relax on the verandah, trade stories, and watch the stars shine in the dark black skies—until the green and pink aurora mosey on stage and steal the night.
We've got the perfect tour for nature lovers! Whether you're looking for adventure on ATVs, horseback riding, or just want to relax with a wagon ride, you'll get to experience the beauty of this special part of Alberta.
