Life In Chestermere

Life On Chestermere Lake

Remember those wonderful family vacations at the lake? The days seemed to stretch on forever, and the center of the universe was the sun-drenched dock. Entire days were spent in bathing suits and bare feet, leaping into the cool water, racing to the raft and water skiing until dusk. It's where your dad helped you reel in a trophy trout and let you drive the boat for the first time. Where you drifted off to sleep to the sound of the wind through the pines and the loons calling across the moonlit lake.

Imagine your kids experiencing such carefree days at your own lakefront hideaway in Chestermere. A beautiful lakefront community steps from the water's edge and moments from the community filled activities.

A Message From Our Mayor

Area Overview

The Town of Chestermere's beginning was in approximately 1884 when men of vision recognized the value of the body of water as a source for an irrigation system. These early pioneers had visions of what irrigation would mean to the lives of the people. The building of the headwork’s of an irrigation water supply was the birth of Chestermere Lake.

Chestermere was incorporated as a town on March 1, 1993. The Town has grown at a rate of 20% or more over the past 5 years with a population of 11,262 in 2007. Chestermere's attractions include a 750 acre lake and 18 hole golf course as well as a number of recreational opportunities. These are matched only by the prairie sunrises and sunsets.
