If you can afford it, look for a lot in Air Ranch, really nice community. If that's too much, look in Crystal Ridge.
You are mistaken. Sheep River Heights is about 100 ft above the river. I would say the only part of Okotoks that is prone to flooding is the downtown area and the RV park next to the river. The rest of the town was basically untouched by last years flood.
