Welcome to The Tiny Herd Guest Ranch
Where Rustic Charm Meets Modern Creativity
Located in the heart of Castor, Alberta, The Tiny Herd Guest Ranch is a sanctuary designed for creators, dreamers, and travelers seeking a pause from the ordinary. While we lay the groundwork for our future miniature livestock herd, we invite you to experience our "Phase One" vision: a premier destination for relaxation, connection, and creativity.
Whether you are here to finish a novel in our tech station, paint pottery in the studio, or simply sleep in under premium linens, our ranch offers the perfect blend of country peace and boutique comfort.
Your Host: Rainey May
About Your Host: Rainey May
Rainey May is thrilled to bring The Tiny Herd Guest Ranch to the beautiful small town of Castor, Alberta. Her dream is to offer a full-service lodging and activity centre that feels like a true home away from home for every visitor.
Rainey's journey to becoming your host is deeply personal. After moving to Castor in October 2025, she was eager to become an active part of the community. With a background in nursing, she eventually had to seek a career change due to her health. She found the perfect fit in hospitality, allowing her to channel her greatest talents and passions—entertaining, meeting new people, and hosting—right from the comfort of her home.
She is dedicated to sharing her experiences and talents with the Castor community and providing a unique, welcoming space where guests can relax and connect. Rainey looks forward to personally welcoming you and ensuring your stay is both exceptional and memorable.
