I've been to Gull Lake three times now and it's a pretty good spot for a small gather (under 20…read morepeople). It's family friendly too so don't expect to bring your beer here and go skinny dipping. There's a beach that's about 1 KM long and you can walk pretty far out in the water before it even reaches four feet high. Probably over 100 yards. In the beach is also a fairly new playground for the kiddes and behind the beach is room for camp grounds and trailers. It's not exactly a huge Lake/ Camp area but it's nice. It feels secluded too because there's trees around the whole area. Bathrooms were descent and I didn't ever have to wait in line. The woman's washroom has a shower too but the men's don't. Not sure why. There's also a Bible Camp that runs just near the Lake and is the turn off just before it so if you get lost you'll know pretty quick.

It was $20/hour, but if you join the league it seemed to be a better deal. However, we had fun and it was nice to try something new. The owner was also really nice and helpful, teaching us different throwing styles and giving us advice.

This is just an excellent field house and wellness centre for Red Deer. The facilities are…read moreextensive: pool, gym, field house, soccer pavilion, running track and even a climbing wall. The centre offers pretty much any class or program that you can think of. Best of all the facility is entirely family friendly: the pool complex has a waterpark for the kids and programs run for all ages. In the summer, there is plenty of outdoor field space as well. It certainly is a boon for the whole city to have a facility like this.

Love strolling along the boardwalk here. It goes on forever it seems. And I haven't finished it yet…read moredespite me visiting a handful of times this year. Beach is easily accessible for swimming in summer and skating in the winter. Feels so safe here since its small town alberta. I'd have to recommend coming here for the winter festival with parade. I think its called the yuletide festival. A big Christmas market and parade with a 5 min fireworks show which is pretty good for a small town in sylvan lake!

Unprofessional staff that does not honor tee times booked in advance. I called and emailed this…read morecourse a month prior to our annual boys golf trip to book to back to back tee times the afternoon of Friday, July 25th and I received an email confirmation that the tee times were booked. when the 8 of us arrived at the course that afternoon, the two young kids at the pro shop said we did not have a tee time, there is a group event going on, they didn't have enough carts for us anyways and we couldn't walk the course. they refused to work with us and left us without an afternoon tee time in the middle of our long weekend golf trip. I was beyond frustrated with the lack of corporation we we received and unwillingness with right the wrong especially because the course looked like a ghost town when we arrived and we were shocked that they couldn't squeeze us in, just an absolute joke!

There were also some art pieces some great lookout spots and a bit of playground equipment for the kids to begin and end the path. We came on a great fall day and saw quite a few birds in and on the water along with a few other animals (deer among others). I would highly recommend this short hike -- it isn't too difficult (though if you have reduced mobility I'd stay on the flat area which is paved rather than on the dirt path). There is ample parking nearby and the gift shop building has restrooms and exhibits among other things.

Very informative!
