Community Features

Arbour Lake Community

Arbour Lake is a well-established Calgary lake community. Founded in 1992, the neighbourhood is centred on a man-made lake which provides year-round leisure and recreation for residents while being a short drive from the amenities of Crowfoot.

These two features alone have made living in Arbour Lake as convenient as it gets for any lake community in Calgary, with heaps of essential amenities, services and recreational opportunities close to home.

Commuting to downtown Calgary takes approximately 20 minutes, give or take, depending on traffic. At the same time, ample access to other parts of Calgary is provided by Country Hills, Crowchild Trail and the nearby ring road of Stoney Trail. The foothills and Rocky Mountains to the west are also relatively easy to access due to the area's northwest location.

All of this and more is yours as a resident of Arbour Lake. Keep an eye open for a new mixed-use neighbourhood called "Arbour Lake West" under development in the area, featuring high-end new construction condos and townhomes.

Arbour Lake Amenities

Arbour Lake is truly a remarkable neighbourhood that offers the convenience of inner-city living in an exclusive suburban lake community. Built on a foothill, many homes in Arbour Lake have spectacular views of the mountains to the west.

Crowfoot Crossing, one of Calgary's most prominent outdoor malls, is home to more than 240 restaurants, shops and services. From big-chain names like Sport Chek and Cineplex Oden to small businesses that locals love, Arbour Lake residents have access to a whole plethora of amenities just minutes from their front door. Others include:

Safeway
Lowe's Home Improvement
Shanks
Co-op
Chapters Books
Joey Crowfoot
The Keg
Melcor YMCA
Community Natural Foods

Arbour Lake Parks & Recreation

Many families are attracted to Arbour Lake homes for sale because of the lifestyle offered by the community, where activities such as swimming, boating, canoeing, fishing and skating - all made possible by the lake - become part of daily life.

When not at the lake, the kids may find themselves at the nearby Crowfoot Library, Melcor YMCA or outdoor fields near Robert Thirsk High School playing sports with their friends. Interconnecting pathways that meander through ravines and green spaces and then back again to major amenities make it easy for the kids to meet new friends and stay connected.

Expansive ravines are found in the north part of the community, where you'll find several ridge walkout homes that provide direct access to leisure and recreation along the pathways. These ravines extend north and east into Citadel.

Lake Water Quality

As with any man-made lake community in Calgary such as Auburn Bay for example, the quality of water in the lake is of the utmost importance. The Arbour Lake Residents Association (ALRA) takes pride in keeping the lake water as clean as possible, with weekly water samples tested at a provincial lab and results monitored by the government.

ALRA is 100% committed to maintaining the water in the lake as clean and pollution-free as possible, meaning a cleaner, more toxic-free water environment for you and your family to enjoy the spoils of. Also, be sure to check out Mahogany on the opposite end of the city.
