Lac Ste. Anne real estate — your questions answered
What is Lac Ste. Anne known for?
Lac Ste. Anne is both a recreational lake community west of Edmonton and a site of profound spiritual significance — the annual Lac Ste. Anne Pilgrimage in July draws 30,000–50,000 Indigenous and Catholic pilgrims from across North America. The lake itself is large, warm, and popular for boating and fishing.
What is real estate like at Lac Ste. Anne?
Properties at Lac Ste. Anne range from modest seasonal cabins under $200,000 to waterfront homes at $500,000–$900,000. The communities of Alberta Beach, Darwell, and Lac Ste. Anne County have a mix of year-round residents and seasonal cottagers. Prices have risen with Edmonton's growth but remain affordable relative to Sylvan Lake.
How far is Lac Ste. Anne from Edmonton?
Lac Ste. Anne is approximately 60–75 km west of Edmonton, about 45–60 minutes by car. Alberta Beach on the southeast shore is the closest and most serviced community. The drive along Highway 16 (Yellowhead) is straightforward, making it popular for weekend trips.
Are there waterfront lots still available at Lac Ste. Anne?
Waterfront lots and properties do come to market, though direct lakefront is limited. Many properties are set back from the water with deeded lake access or community beach rights. Seasonal cabins on leased land (under various county arrangements) also trade in this area.
