For outdoor recreation, residents can swim or canoe at one of several private lakes, including Elbow Valley Lake, Clearwater Lake, and Fisherman’s Lake — which is stocked with trout. Residents enjoy visiting Lott Creek, as well as the Glencoe Club Golf Course, and the Elbow Springs Golf Course.

There are community parks, complete with picnic areas and playgrounds. Walking trails connect each of these parks with the various regions of Elbow Valley. The Residents’ Club is a great space for meetings and workshops, and maintains tennis courts and a playground.
