Summer Update

As we near the end of July, it is noted that the recreational property market is still quite soft. With the weak economy, 2nd homes/cottages take a back seat to many people, as far as priorities go. This is proving true again this year. Those looking for recreational property are fewer, and there is not much competition amongst the buyers. If you are not looking at selling, or at least right away, things are looking pretty good. For example, the resort itself is looking very good, as it is being very well maintained. The outdoor pool is up and running. The beach is busy (yes, there has been some goofy weather this year, but hey, it's southern Alberta!) It is sunny now and the beach is a great place to be! If not on the beach, on the boat can be even better. I must admit that I have not been fishing yet this year, so I cannot comment on how well the fish are biting. Back at the clubhouse, the auditorium seems to be busy with all sorts of different events going on. The teenager (games) room is very popular. There are movies and video games, and all sorts of other stuff that come in handy, especially for those rainy days. The indoor pool and hot tub are still not operational. It sounds like the plan is to move forward in planning for a new indoor pool, as the equipment is in need of some major upgrades. Hopefully, we will have an update on this later on in the summer. Oh...one last thing, it is Halloween in July this weekend at Lake McGregor Country Estates! Another cool event put on by the folks at the resort.
