All About Gladstone

Opened in the 1940s as the historic “J.O.”, Gladstone Ranch has been in operation for several decades. Its original and subsequent owners ran an internationally esteemed guest ranch, lodge, and restaurant until the late 1990s. Guests came from far and wide to enjoy the splendid surroundings, fine food, and lively festivities of the ranch.
Gladstone Mountain Ranch sits in the foothills of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, surrounded by wide valleys, rugged peaks, and skies that seem endless. Since its beginning, the ranch has been a gathering place for rest, renewal, and celebration.
Our mission is simple: to create space where people can come together—whether for weddings, retreats, or family gatherings—and leave refreshed. We believe that in the beauty of creation and the warmth of community, lives are enriched and memories are made.
Gladstone was founded with the conviction that hospitality is a calling. We see the ranch not just as a venue, but as a ministry of welcome: a place where guests can share in the peace, beauty, and blessing of Gladstone Mountain Ranch.
