Just throwing up a gate as marketing tool as to a feeling of exclusivity moreso than any safety issues. Though, exclusivity would be better served by putting only 10-12 lots on that island instead of 22 and charging a higher price for having a larger lot then a lake side house on the "mainland".
The closest island lot, looks like about 100 ft or less from the closest normal lake lot..in winter, that's a pretty easy walk across the ice, or a quick swim if you were really hell bent on getting to the island if you had questionable intentions.
I can only think of one other gated community off the top of my head in Calgary...on Elbow Dr, on west side, near 58th Ave, by the Calgary G&CC, those I believe those are attached homes, maybe even "Mature living".
