Community
Lake Bonavista Village
Lake Bonavista Village is beautifully situated on eight park-like acres on the west-side of the well-established and upscale Calgary community of Lake Bonavista. Our retirement village is centrally located in the midst of native trees and tended gardens alongside a pathway that meanders around the main building and through our cul de sac community of thirteen cottages. These unique cottages encircle a community gazebo which adjoins a walkway to a pedestrian bridge over Anderson Road to Southcentre Mall. This park-like setting along with our rare cluster of bungalows, makes Lake Bonavista Village an ideal place for seniors to find inspiration and peace in this very popular corner of Calgary.
Joyce Nolan
General Manager
With a passion for reading nonfiction and biographies, Joyce Nolan can never get enough of history and understanding what makes people do what they do. This makes her keenly aware of the great richness of personality and life experience that each resident brings to the community and she takes great pleasure in making sure that Lake Bonavista Village runs smoothly and that it meets and exceeds the expectations of those who call it “home”.

We believe that you should feel safe and reassured when living here. Our 24 hour professional staff, emergency call system with optional pendants, video monitoring, and visitor sign-in, are just the beginning.

We call it “protective oversight” and it means that your safety isn't treated like a job—it's woven into everything we do.
