SASKATOON, SASKATCHEWAN – Lakeside Golf Resort & Event unveiled the only luxurious resort community of its kind with convenient proximity to Saskatoon, where residents can enjoy spectacular lake living in various cottage and estate options across four seasons of outdoor recreation while accessing countless deluxe amenities, all with the option of earning rental income hassle-free. Located 25 minutes from Saskatoon on Blackstrap Lake, the new master-planned community is expected to be valued at $30 million and uniquely boasts numerous nature-lover activities, including boating, swimming, golfing, fishing, cross-country skiing, skating, snowmobiling, ice hockey and more as well as deluxe amenities housed in the new Event Centre, including full-service restaurant and bar, spa, pro-shop, four-season pool, gym and event space.
This is all available to residents with the option of easily renting their properties via full support of the resort’s property management company. When owners are not using their cottages, they can enter them into the rental pool, for as little or as much as they want. Property management takes care of everything – from maintenance to marketing. For purchasers who opt into the rental pool, a full furniture, appliance and electronic inventory package is available that includes everything from bedding to outdoor furniture and accessories.
“At the new Lakeside Golf Resort & Event Centre, we are bringing residents the lifestyle that you typically only get to experience on vacations and holidays, and it’s very accessible to a broad spectrum of the market because your cottage can earn rental revenue while you’re not using it – without lifting a finger,” said Brandon Moore, Lakeside’s Strategic Operations & Marketing Manager, who was instrumental in cultivating Saskatchewan’s fastest-selling recreational community development – The Cottages at Elk Ridge, located just outside of Waskesiu. “Essentially, this magnificent property allows you the privilege of owning and enjoying a beautiful lake cottage that includes all of nature’s beauty in Saskatchewan, with the bonus of earning income when not in use.”
Every cottage is situated on a minimum half-acre lot. Three walkout cottage options offer a cozy basement with fireplace, and bar and games area for family fun or team-building. The beautifully-finished open-concept kitchen, living and dining areas have dramatic vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors opening to a large deck overlooking the golf course and lake. Double and triple garages can be purchased for personal storage or to increase the appeal to the rental market.
The 9-hole golf course, the longest in Saskatchewan from the black tees, was designed by Lakeside’s owner and developer Dave Ferguson, an avid golfer and former Ontario Golf Club Champion. With three additional tee deck options, the course is a perfect fit for both beginners and scratch golfers, who can enjoy its rolling hills and valleys, lush trees, plants and beautiful sunsets.
The resort’s elegant Event Centre, slated for construction fall of 2019, is ideal for nature lovers seeking conventions, weddings and family reunions, particularly when event attendees require overnight accommodations. The Event Centre boasts expansive windows overlooking the lake and soaring vaulted ceilings, with numerous amenities property owners can enjoy.
To date, Phase 1 of the Lakeside Estates have sold out, which represents 32 residential custom build lots, many of which have homes constructed with market values more than $1M. Another 58 lots, representing a newly master planned community called the Cottages at Lakeside, the majority of which back the golf course with beautiful vistas of the lake and rolling hills, become available for sale on Friday, July 5.
