3 Reasons Glennifer Lake is ideal of Students and Snowbirds

We all know how important it is to step away from our busy and often chaotic lives to rest and rejuvenate and most often this is associated with far off vacations and pricey accommodations.   If you’re a student, this is nearly unachievable on a financial level and the time restrictions on when you can vacation make it difficult to justify booking a ticket.  Snowbirds, more often than not, don’t have to battle with time constraints, but costly travel isn’t always appealing.  That, and travelling is uncomfortable no matter what chapter of your life you’re in!  But escaping from reality doesn’t have to be an expensive affair and you don’t have to travel hours to find it.  Glennifer Lake resort is not only close by, but the amenities cater to all ages without breaking the bank.  Here are a few reasons why students and snowbirds alike can find refuge at Glennifer Lake resort.

Close to home

Glennifer Lake is located in central Alberta and is an easy commute from any of Alberta’s major cities.  From Red Deer it’s a quick 35 minute drive and folks from Calgary can make it in 75 minutes, while Edmonton is only a 2 hour road trip away.  Why waste time and money flying when road trips are so much easier on a student budget?  We Albertans are not unaccustomed to travelling by car and these speedy car rides to paradise are appealing when time is precious.

Summer is where it’s at

Escaping to the beach and spending time in the sunshine is summer living in a nutshell.  Glennifer Lake boasts a beautiful beach and the water is clear, refreshing and algae free.  Boating, sailing and other water sports are widely enjoyed by everyone who chooses the resort as a vacation destination and the lake has much less water traffic in comparison to other Alberta beaches.  If keeping your feet on solid ground is more attractive, there’s also beach volleyball, tennis courts and basketball courts to keep you occupied.  The community holds BBQ’s and other social events and if you have a furry friend with you, there’s a beautiful off leash field to roam and explore.  Spending time outdoors doesn’t have to be difficult when Glennifer Lake offers so much to do.

The amenities

Speaking of things to do, if being a beach bum isn’t your cup of tea, Glennifer Lake has so many other options for you.  Snowbirds love their golf, but students also take advantage of the 9-hole course and putting greens and can sometimes give the snowbirds a run for their money!  After a challenging game, take a dip and relax in the hot tub or go for a swim in the indoor or outdoor pools.  The fully licensed restaurant and lounge on site is a wonderful place to kick back after a long day of vacationing.  And the best part about all of this?  Glennifer Lake is a year round resort that offers it’s amenities no matter the season.  So whether you’re looking for something to do over reading week or there’s a free weekend on your calendar in July, Glennifer Lake is the closest little piece of paradise you’ll find.

Three Reasons Gleniffer Lake is Better than Camping

Whether or not “go outside and play” was a large part of your parents’ vocabulary growing up, many agree that getting back to nature is something to aspire to. Whether it’s to taste the unpolluted air or an excuse to rent an RV, many Albertans will choose to go camping for their next vacation. And while we’re not trying to say the wilderness is overrated, there are better ways to enjoy the great outdoors that don’t involve impugning nature’s pristineness or hanging your food in the trees so that bears don’t eat it. Gleniffer Lake has lots of green spaces and outdoor extracurriculars, so you can go outside and make hay without lugging equipment through the brush. But that’s just the start of it.

Give Nature a Day Off

While camping outdoors might seem like it’s bringing you closer to mother nature, campers also tend to bring mother nature closer to non-biodegradable garbage and general human contamination. Aside from the potentially hazardous impact of unattended or incorrectly extinguished campfires, are the masses of bottles and debris that campers leave behind every year. These recyclables muck up once-clean lakes and clutters the homes of wildlife. And the discarded sleeping bags, tents, and candy wrappers people routinely leave behind? Mother nature could definitely do without. Plus, Gleniffer Lake has a state of the art septic system—what more needs to be said?

The Beaten Path is Paved with Good Intentions

Even conscientious campers who clean up after themselves can have an impact that lasts longer than their trip. Traveling “off the beaten path” might be a nice way to tell someone to try new things, but there’s a reason there are nature paths. When hikers go off course, their presence can contribute to soil erosion and choke the local flora. Even staying on the roads to and from camping sites can blanket local lakes with dust kicked up by cars, which then interfere with salmon and bug reproduction cycles—and if you thought your Nikes were hard on the forest floor, imagine what all-terrain tires can do.

The Great Backdoor

Getting “in tune” with nature doesn’t have to mean getting “away” from modern convenience, and you don’t have to be far from all electronics to enjoy a day in the outdoors. Gleniffer Lake has so much to do that you probably won’t be able to do it all! We have everything from beach volleyball to a 9-hole golf course. There’s an off-leash dog park, and playgrounds for the kids. Do I mention our beautiful lake full of clear, cool water? And it’s clean and free of algae too. Also, when you stay in Gleniffer Lake you won’t need to sleep on the ground, which means you can invite grandma without worrying about her back.
Do yourself a favor and get some fresh air—without placing a strain on Alberta’s forests and wildlife. You can have as much or as little of the amenities of home while still getting some sun. If you want to plan a getaway to Gleniffer Lake, contact me today at 1-888-269-0044!
