About River Heights
River Heights is the umbrella rather than a single subdivision. It is Cochrane's south-side growth above the Bow valley, and it is the parent district for The Willows, Rivercrest, Southbow Landing and The Summit of River Heights, all of which share one community association. Riversong, Riviera and Precedence sit on the broader south side under the Town's South Ridge designation.
The housing is modern-build throughout: open-plan single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes with big kitchens, upstairs laundry and the energy efficiency that shows up on the utility bill rather than the brochure.
Planning here is family-first — playgrounds, green corridors and pathway connections — and the Spray Lake Sawmills Family Sports Centre, 325,000 square feet of pools, rinks, climbing walls, turf and track, is close by.

Highway 22 access puts downtown Cochrane about five minutes away and Calgary around thirty.

Questions
River Heights — common questions
Is River Heights the same as Riversong?
No. River Heights is the larger south-side district containing The Willows, Rivercrest, Southbow Landing and The Summit, all under one community association. Riversong is a separate community on the south side.
What is the draw?
The SLS Centre, the parks and pathways, and direct Highway 22 access for the Calgary commute.
Is it family-oriented?
It was planned that way — playgrounds, green space, quiet streets and an active community association running events.
