I had a great time! Diane and Bear were very welcoming and shared so much of their knowledge with us. the Center is so peaceful and a true opportunity to unwind and connect with nature. The horses themselves are beautiful and you can see the love and compassion Diane and Bear show for them. I truly enjoyed my stay here and hope to be back soon.

The hosts were absolutely fantastic and made us feel right at home from the start. They were incredibly supportive and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. If you're curious, they share a wealth of knowledge, making the stay even more enriching. The location exudes tranquility and is the perfect spot for some serious relaxation. We had two unforgettable weeks here, during which I truly felt like I recharged my soul. Saying goodbye to Diane and Bear was hard, and I still think about them and their beautiful place every day.

The most incredible experience, Diane and Bear are both truly amazing people who made me feel at home from day one. All of the horses are so wonderful to work with and I loved learning all about their story's. Day to day work was enjoyable and exactly as Diane advertised and was always appreciated by Diane, I've been able to make friends for life through this trip and also gained a home away from home with Diane and bear. I can't thank them enough for this opportunity and welcoming me into their beautiful home🤍

Amazing experience at the Center!Diane & Bear are such kind hearted and warm people who make you feel like part of the family from the moment you arrive. Day to day work life on the Center was exactly as described to us beforehand and included gardening, horse chores and just general maintenance. Girls camp was busy but we always felt appreciated for everything we did and any hard work was always rewarded with sweet treats, trips to town, evening sunset rides etc. Overall I would highly recommend, this place has truly become home away from home for me and I can't wait to come back again❤️

Incredible experience at Wild Horse the Center, feeling like part of a big, welcoming family from the moment I arrived. Meeting volunteers from around the world and forming lasting friendships was a highlight. Free-time activities were fantastic, including line dancing, trips to town, and a day at the rodeo, immersing us in Alberta's western culture. Riding horses daily (weather permitting) and bonding with my heart horse, Chief, was a dream. Working days involved gardening, fencing, and some horse chores. Evenings were magical with coyote sounds and wildlife sightings. Am I now a rookie cowgirl?!

Diane and Bear were not only incredibly giving and kind hosts, but also amazing horse people with a wealth of knowledge about horses, horsemanship, indigenous culture, and sustainable living. The food and accommodation were amazing and we learned so much about western riding and horsemanship. Overall, we would definitely recommend this experience to any individual looking to connect with nature and learn more about horses and indigenous culture.

Amelia was a great help on our ranch. She easily transferred her English riding skill to Western style and helped get many of our horses ready for the upcoming season. she is a very competent horsegirl! Amelia is friendly, gets along well with other volunteers, happy to help wherever she was needed. We really appreciated all she did while she was here! Highly recommend her!
