Gem of a Community
Bounded by nature, our community took root in the early 1990s around a vision of health and recreation. The beautiful Bow River meanders past our doorsteps to the south. The undulating greens of the Cochrane Golf Club extend beyond our backyards, connecting us while giving us space to breathe. Within walking distance to Cochrane’s blossoming shopping district, and a 15–20 minute drive from Calgary, Riverview provides residents the opportunity to leave the hustle and bustle of urban life behind. We are invested in this gem of a community. It is our home.

Board of Directors
My wife and I were looking for a quiet small town that our family could call home, and discovered the community of Riverview in 2005. The Town of Cochrane may not qualify as “small” anymore, but the community of Riverview still retains the friendly atmosphere we fell in love with. Absolutely no plans to leave.
My husband and I moved to Cochrane in 2018 and found our home in Riverview in the summer of 2021. We knew instantly that Riverview was the community for us, with the endless walking trails by the river, open spaces, and friendly neighbours. I look forward to engaging with the community through the RCA board.
My family and I moved to Cochrane in the fall of 2021 and knew right away we wanted to be in Riverview. We love the trails and the river, the convenient location and the friendly faces! We have lived in four Alberta towns and feel like Cochrane (and Riverview) are truly home.”
Diane and I moved into Riverview in 2017. We were looking for a quiet neighbourhood close to the Bow and have certainly found it here. We have great neighbours and enjoy a game of golf as often as we can. I’ve been a board member since 2020.
John and I moved into Riverview in the summer of 2013. When the Stampeders aren’t playing football you’ll find us either fishing on the Bow or out golfing. We love our Riverview community and are blessed to call Cochrane home.
