At Pine Creek, our mission is to create an immersive and transformative retreat experience that reconnects our guests with the land, nature, and themselves. We are dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich history and culture of the Bears Ears Reserve, while fostering a deep sense of interconnectedness with the environment. Through our Indigenous-inspired accommodations, culinary experiences, and interpretive adventures, we aim to provide a sanctuary for personal growth, cultural exploration, and a genuine communion with nature. We are committed to upholding our Indigenous heritage, offering a warm welcome to all, and leaving a lasting positive impact on our guests, our community, and the land we cherish.

OUR PURPOSE

Pine Creek Retreat is uniquely designed to provide our guests a chance to develop a relationship with the land and to immerse themselves in forest, fields and rivers the same way our ancestors did. Our purpose is to provide the opportunity and space to connect with what matters, to allow you to find yourself in the most authentic of indigenous experiences, a communion with nature.

Pine Creek Retreat & Stopping House

The Pine Creek Stopping House, a one-and-a-half-storey log house built in 1908-09, is a designated provincial historical resource. It originally served as a stopping house, general store, and post office for the region. Located on the former Bears Ears Reserve, Pine Creek offers a self-directed interpretive experience exploring the shared history of Indigenous peoples and settlers, including the story of Chief Bears Ears and the rise and fall of Reserve 126. An Indigenous-owned retreat and resort, Pine Creek caters to corporate and private group bookings and welcomes travelers exploring Alberta's Lakeland region. Pine Creek Retreat provides an immersive experience, connecting guests with nature and the region's rich history. Accommodations include Cree tipis, Métis inspired shelters, and the historic Pine Creek Stopping House, all central to the Pine Creek Interpretive Experience.
