Sheppard Family Park

Sheppard Family Park is a cherished 13.6-acre homestead originally belonging to Ruth Maccoy, who generously gifted the land and its historic buildings to the people of High River upon her passing in 1995. Today, the park stands as a living tribute to the community’s heritage, celebrating life in High River from the 1880s through the 1920s. Visitors can explore the beautifully preserved grounds, heritage structures, and peaceful green spaces that reflect early prairie life. This serene rural setting offers an inviting escape for picnics, strolls, family gatherings, and community events. Sheppard Family Park is a meaningful blend of history and tranquility, welcoming guests to step back in time and enjoy a slower pace.
