rocky mountain buffalo ranch & guest cottage buffalo tours

We were there at its worst, apparently, there having been little retained snow. We're told that, when it has snowed, the powder skiing is superb. Having said that, at the higher altitudes, the snow was still good.There are no easy groomers at Kicking Horse. There are 4 bowls with varying steepness of black runs. Even the few blues might be classed as blacks in other resorts.We only got to 3 of the bowls which gave us all the challenges we needed. The other one, the Super Bowl, is where the steepest terrain and most double blacks are. It is only accessible from the top of the gondola by a 15-minute hike, which we didn't fancy.

There is no other place on earth that compares!! Leo is a very gracious host willing to answer any questions through out the tour... The guest cottage is a cozy little getaway suitable for couples or groups.. I highly recommend you pay Leo a visit !!

RMBR is a wonderful place with no shortage of adventure to be had on the Ranch or nearby. Staying on the cottage on the ranch you can wander the area and take in the breath taking scenery. Leo, the owner is incredibly knowledgable and willing to share his passion for his buffalo and for nature with all his visitors. Definitely reccommend staying there.

Visit was in Sept 2012: Amazing experience with some extremely interesting insights into the Bison psyche and just how amazing they are. Leo is passionate about his Buffalo's well being and is a knowledgeable hands on operator. Leo also is a musician and do yourself a favour and ask for a listen to one of his CD's, also just finished a book I have ordered.

We stayed here for 5 days in June wirh my lovely brother and sister in law. They booked it and what an amazing place. Right near Kicking Horse River for white water rafting and a great horse riding place 5 min drive away. The actual cottage we stayed in was simple perfect, 2 wood burners and spotlessly clean. Will ️️defo recommend to anyone who what's to feel the real Canada .

Leo is a really nice and talented and has an obvious love and care for these buffalos. He shares many nice stories about them and is entertaining also. The buffalo respond to him and come right up to the side where you can see them pretty close. You learn a lot of new things and the scenery is breath taking!! The money is well spent and there is no rush for you to leave. He also has a nice little cottage style house you can rent and stay at with the beautiful mountains all around. I would recommend choosing this place to go and check out for sure!

We met bison Chester junior and his herd while his humorous and sympathetic owner Leo explained a thousand interesting things. And... we learned how to make fire the Indian way. A fantastic afternoon impossible to ever forget!

We came upon Leo's by chance and boy are we ever glad! We are already planning our trip back for winter! Leo is a wonderful guide! He knows his stuff! And what's most beautiful is he loves his work and I promise you will too. Buffalo/Bison have just jumped way up my favourite animal list! Loved him his music his tour his farm and his tractor and of course his buffalo ! Alan and Gillian!

Leo is a nice person, talented musician and knowledgeable buffalo herd owner. The cottage is not new or fancy but it is very private, has a hot tub, BBQ and it is all for yourself. If you stay at the cottage, you will get a free tour to the buffalo, including nice guitar music written and played by Leo, and demonstration of making fire using only natural sources. Cottage or not, but you must come and see the Buffalo here!

Thank you very much for visiting he buffalos and me. It was my pleasure to share our life here with you.

Our host Leo Downey is so very personable and accommodating when answering questions he's probably been asked a zillion times before. He treats his guest as though they were the only people in the whole world. The buffalo of course are so very amazing!

I spend two days in the guest cabin available at the buffalo Rach and the experience was great.It is a peaceful cabin set in a perfect environment. It has got a living room, sauna, a double bed and an outdoor kitchen.Even if it had no electricity we had everything we need to spend two great days in Golden. The host Leo was really kind and took us to see the buffalos, which are actually great. We could walk freely around the ranch and enjoy a nice trail around the creek that goes throught the ranch.I would recommend this ranch to everyone and if you have the opportunity , stay in the cabin for a few days, you will really enjoy it!

Thank you for visiting me and Chester jr!! and for your review too.
