Welcome to Swansea Ranch
Swansea Ranch is a family-owned property just outside Invermere, BC — a quiet, scenic escape nestled in the heart of the Columbia Valley. What began as a working ranch has grown into something more: a place where people come to connect with nature, celebrate life’s biggest moments, and experience the stillness of the mountains.
We’re not a resort or your typical venue. We’re a real ranch — with animals in the fields, birds in the sky, and 600 acres of space to breathe. Whether you’re here for a wedding, a weekend getaway, or to lease land for farming, we welcome you like a neighbour.
Why Invermere?
People come to the Invermere area for its beauty — and stay for its balance. You’ll find mountain views in every direction, a warm lake during the summer, and a beautiful ski resort nearby in the winter. Unlike busier tourist towns, Invermere moves at its own peaceful pace.
We chose this location because it gives you everything:
Proximity to Windermere Lake, hot springs, and hiking trails
Easy access to town while still feeling off-grid
Endless natural light, golden grasslands, and starry skies
A welcoming, down-to-earth community
This region is home to hidden gems like Fairmont Hot Springs, Radium Hot Springs, and Canal Flats — all just a short drive from the ranch. If you’re staying for a few nights or planning a destination wedding, you’ll have plenty of ways to explore and unwind nearby.
Our Story
What started as a family ranch has since transformed into an awe inspiring boutique wedding venue with a well thought out Airbnb. We want to share this beauty with all of those who are looking for a truly unique experience grounded in nature.
We host weddings that feel grounded and personal, not rushed or commercial. We welcome guests who want to slow down and soak in the mountain stillness. And we lease land to farmers and ranchers who respect the soil, the seasons, and the work it takes to grow something real.
Every decision we make is rooted in the belief that this land is worth sharing — not in pieces, but as a whole experience.
