Lucasia Ranch Vacations... Living the spirit of the west!

If you are looking for a true Alberta Canada Working Ranch experience, head back in time to Historic Lucasia Ranch. Join ranch cowboys as they herd cattle through the picturesque Porcupine Hills of southwestern Alberta.

Surround yourself with 4000 acres of vast open country, which comprises the impressive Lucasia Ranch. Herds of elk and deer mingle with Texas Longhorns and Crossbred cattle, as well as Percheron, Appaloosa and Quarter horses.

Established in 1881 by Colonel Lyndon, our Alberta Foothills Ranch stands as testament to a bygone era. After a day in the saddle, you can spend the evening beside a crackling campfire or relaxing on our deck. Taste the crystal clear spring water that flows through our ranchyard into a pond that is home to colourful ducks and geese. Join our family as they go about the daily Alberta Ranch activities.

Our main ranch home has two guest rooms. Or, you can experience pioneer life and stay in our refurbished 1900s log cabin. Also, coming later this spring to Lucasia Ranch is a new self-contained log cabin... check back for details. Alberta Ranch activities include cattle drives, branding days, seasonal round-ups and regular checks on cattle & horses. Other options... take in team roping practice & learn the basics of roping the dummy, challenge someone to a game of horseshoes, enjoy an evening of firepit cameraderie or hike the hills and watch for birds and other wildlife.

Lucasia Ranch is a family-owned and run working ranch. The Lucas family enjoy meeting and introducing guests the world over to their western lifestyle. Wayne and Judy Lucas and their family take pride in the historic ranch legacy that depicts Lucasia Ranch. Their daughter and her family farm 30 miles east of the ranch while three sons, Rusty, Brett and Flint, divide their time between other interests and ranch life.

Access to the Ranch is convenient from either the Calgary International Airport (1.5 hour drive) or from the U.S. Montana border crossing. Often our guests use our place as a staging area to drive to Banff, Waterton National Park, Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump or Calgary, returning the same day to the Ranch.

By preserving our western heritage and lifestyle, we are able to share the legends, history and culture of our cowboy life with our guests... a visit to Lucasia Ranch will leave you with a lifetime of western memories.
