It's weird you guys don't see that's better than not having a lake.
I think you are confusing living on the lake with living in a lake community. If you are judging a community by proximity to a lake, then the absolute best communities would be Deer Run Estates or Parkland, where you live right on Fish Creek Park, which also has a man made lake with public access. But also a nature preserve, woods, bike paths, marshes, a river, world class fly fishing, and wildlife.

I would much rather live there, as I would get 10 X more use out of Fish Creek park as I did when I was a kid in Bonavista. I made the trek through Parkland almost every day to go down there. Parkland is the best community ever in the history of ever, because it suits my needs better.
