Beyond Glamping: Discover a Deeper Kind of Summer Escape in Saskatchewan

Beyond Glamping: Discover a Deeper Kind of Summer Escape in Saskatchewan

Forget what you think you know about camping, glamping, or even summer getaways—Buffalo Pound Eco Lodge is flipping the script.

Opening its doors for the very first time on June 1st, this unique retreat near Buffalo Pound Lake is not just a place to sleep outdoors in comfort—it’s a seasonal sanctuary for reconnection, relaxation, and raw natural beauty. Open June through September, our eco lodge invites you to experience Saskatchewan in a way that’s authentic, restorative, and meaningful.

 

 

🌿 Not Just Glamping—It’s Grounded Luxury

At Buffalo Pound Eco Lodge, we’ve reimagined the modern glamping experience through a deep connection to the land, Indigenous culture, and natural wellness.

Each tipi-inspired cabin is built for comfort and simplicity. Inside, you’ll find:

  • 🛏️ Space for up to 4 guests (1 queen bed + 2 singles)

  • 👣 Grounding sheets designed to promote deeper rest by reconnecting your body to the Earth

  • 🔥 A private firepit and outdoor kitchenette so you can cook, gather, and unwind at your own pace

  • 🧘♀️ Minimalist interiors that help you truly unplug

Outside, you’ll wake up to rustling leaves, birdsong, and the calls of bison echoing across the prairie—no street noise, no distractions.

 

 

🛶 Activities That Feed the Soul

Your stay includes free access to kayaks, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards, so you can explore the calm waters of Buffalo Pound Lake. Whether you’re paddling at sunrise or watching the sky turn pink in the evening, you’ll feel something shift within you.

Evenings at the lodge are a time for ritual and reflection. Every guest receives a special Indigenous welcome bundle, which includes:

  • 🫓 A bannock-making kit with ingredients, instructions, and a QR code linking to a step-by-step video

  • 🌿 A self-guided medicine walk, with written materials and stories to help you connect to the plants, land, and teachings of the area

  • 🌌 Access to Indigenous star stories, sharing traditional knowledge and cosmology under Saskatchewan’s breathtaking night skies

These experiences are designed to help you slow down, learn something new, and connect with the spirit of the land.

 

 

⛳ A Few Surprises Along the Way…

We’ve added a little fun to the mix too. The first 100 bookings receive 4 FREE rounds of mini golf at Squirrely’s, our whimsical, woodland-themed course tucked right beside the lodge. It’s a perfect break between paddleboarding and roasting marshmallows.

 

 

✨ Why Book Now?

Let’s be honest—word is starting to spread. But as a brand-new destination, you have a unique chance to be among the first to experience it all. No crowds. No overdone tourist traps. Just wide-open skies, handcrafted tipi cabins, and an invitation to be still for a while.

And remember:
 ⏳ We’re only open June–September. Once the season ends, the lodge goes quiet until next spring.
