Chestermere is a 750 acre lake 5 miles out of Calgary that you can water-ski, sail, wakeboard and have fun, fun, fun. The thing about Chestermere that distinguishes it from other lake communities in this area is of course the size, (750 acres is about 720 acres bigger than Calgary?s other lake communities.), is the fact that you can run a motor boat on the lake. Not having a dock or the ability to build one, is certainly a consideration in the value of the home.

If you are truly lakefront you have a boat lift at the end of your dock, you go out and drop the boat, and away you go. If you are not lakefront, you hitch your boat to your towing vehicle, tow it to the boat launch, wait your turn in line with all of Calgary and Chestermere, show your ID (Chestermere residents do not have to pay launch fees) and then back your boat down the launch, take it off of the boat trailer, (this will involve getting wet) move it to a safe place while you look for a place to park your vehicle. That would not seems to be a major hassle, but there is not enough parking at the boat launch and there is no place to tie your boat. Nor are there bumpers along the concrete wall to protect your boat. Maybe it would just be easier to stay in bed. Can you see why a true lakefront home would be more desirable, therefore more expensive? If you are considering paying over $900K for a home in Chestermere and you are a boater, please contact us. We are Lakefront Specialists. We know the topography of the lake, we know which locations have natural sand, and deep water. We know all about the lake and the lake management with the water provider W.I.D. We have sold more lakefront homes on Chestermere Lake than anyone has. We have been lakefront owners since 1991. We water ski, sail, wake board, fish, swim, kayak, skate, and play on or in Chestermere Lake.
