I grew up in Lake Bonavista, i've experienced those insane amount of leisure opportunities first hand. The downside of every lake community in Calgary is that you have to live in suburbia to get the lake. So for me, no lake community would qualify as Community #1. I value more time with my kids over an hour+ commute both ways just to have weekend man-made lake leisure. That's what camping is for - weekend leisure at real lakes.
