Hondo, Alberta, is situated in a piece of ranch country that feels both rugged and generous at the same time; hard-working land that rewards good stockmanship. ‘Bring Your Lasso to Hondo’ is built for livestock producers. The ranch comfortably managed 165 cow-calf pairs in 2025. Located just one hour north of Westlock, this assemblage offers a total of 776 acres selling as three Parcels, including a yard site to complete the farmstead.
The terrain rolls and breaks naturally with a mix of open pasture, wooded draws, and low ground that holds moisture; this variation creates shelter for livestock in all seasons and produces resilient grasses well suited to grazing. It is a country built for cattle with solid footing, natural wind protection, and landscapes that do not need much convincing to grow feed. Annual precipitation is a real advantage at ‘Bring Your Lasso To Hondo.’ Compared to drier regions, Hondo benefits from dependable rainfall and snowfall, helping recharge soils, sloughs, and creeks. Water for livestock is a standout feature, supporting consistent and efficient grazing rotations.
The ranch headquarters can be found on Parcel 1, which proffers a total of 319 acres. Township Road 694 borders the southern boundary, and the half-section is located three miles east of Highway 44. Perimeter fencing and some cross-fencing are in place and CNRL pays $1,800 annually in Surface Lease Rental for an access road that runs along the western boundary.
As all ranchers agree, a ranch with reliable water for both the yard and livestock is critical. There are two water wells on the home quarter, along with a large dugout west of the house; this primary water source supplies three livestock drinkers. The wooden corrals are older, but the posts are solid and provide a good foundation for new owners to build upon. You will find a dugout with a 400-barrel tank for holding water on the north quarter of this Parcel, allowing livestock access without damaging the dugout. There are approximately 200 open-acres on the home half-section, historically rotated between cultivation, hay, and pasture. Most of these acres were in pasture in 2025, though the owners recall producing 110-bushel oat crops in years past.
Built in 1986, the residence is 1,420 square feet and features a solid, concrete basement that is fully developed and offers a separate entrance - ideal for firewood and food storage. The basement is neat and functional, with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a sitting room, and a bar area. Updates include a natural gas furnace and a wood furnace, a water softener, and a built-in vacuum. The main floor has three bedrooms and one bathroom, triple-pane windows installed within the last ten years, Ashwood cabinetry, and LED lighting. Flooring includes tigerwood, linoleum, ceramic tile, and carpet, and the shingles were replaced approximately 12 years ago. The exterior is finished with vinyl siding and a large, two-sided deck. Three large deep-freezers and a refrigerator remain in the basement, with a refrigerator, stove, and washer/dryer upstairs.
Improvements include a 32’ x 240’ metal-clad open-wall pole building with 14-foot clearance and treated posts with a divider, a 20’ x 24’ metal-clad shed, four metal-clad, steel-floor sheds, and numerous additional open-faced livestock shelters. Mature shelterbelts and a solid working yard round out Parcel 1 and support everyday ranching needs.
Parcel 2 consists of 298 acres, forming the most northerly portion of the ranch. Highway 2 runs the entire mile along the southern border, with
