By the numbers
Mahogany at a glance
Population and dwelling counts: City of Calgary civic census, 2019 — the most recent civic census published. Current properties: the City’s property assessment roll. That is the up-to-date count, but it counts titles rather than households — each condominium unit is its own title, while a rental apartment building is a single title however many suites it holds. In newer, mostly-owned communities the two numbers track closely; in older communities with rental blocks the roll sits below the census count for that reason. Sector: City of Calgary community district boundaries.
The community
About Mahogany
Fun facts: Before the suburb, this was the Ollerenshaw family's farmland; they began farming south of Calgary in 1923. The family agreed to development only if the original farmstead was kept, and two original barns and the grain complex still stand. The homeowners association describes Mahogany Lake, at about 64 acres, as Calgary's largest lake, about twice the size of Auburn Bay's lake. It is filled only with City tap water, uses about 220,000 cubic metres a year, and a clay liner holds the water in. The lake has two residential islands reached by bridges. The community claims 21 acres of sandy beach. In winter, a 2.4 km skating track is cleared on the lake. The annual Calgary IceBreaker Polar Dip is held at Mahogany Lake. American white pelicans, with wingspans up to 9.5 feet, visit the 74-acre wetland. The Central Green playground is built around a giant fish-shaped climber. Many streets and Beach Club rooms start with "M," such as Masters, Marquis, Magnolia and Marina.
Mahogany is in far SE Calgary, east of 52 Street SE and south of Stoney Trail, with Auburn Bay to the north. It launched in 2008 and is built around a large private lake and wetlands.
The homeowners association runs the lake and the Beach Club, with beaches, a gym, tennis courts, a splash park and boat rentals for residents. The community has about 22 km of paved pathways, and Mahogany Village Market has a Sobeys, Shoppers Drug Mart and restaurants. Routes 75 and 79 run to South Health Campus and the CTrain.
Things to do: Walk the City's self-guided tour of the Mahogany Wetlands. Bike the community's pathways. Play pickleball or tend a garden plot at the Central Green. Hear live jazz at Alvin's Jazz Club. Swim or skate at the Seton YMCA nearby.
Farmers’ market: Mahogany Farmers’ Market, Mahogany Central Green — Wednesdays, 3–7 pm, June to late September. Year-round, the closest is Fresh & Local Market (Avenida Village, 12445 Lake Fraser Drive SE), about 11 km away.
Lake community
The lake at Mahogany
Mahogany is one of Calgary's lake communities. Residents get private access to the lake; the public does not.
| Lake | Mahogany Lake |
|---|---|
| Size | About 64 acres — Calgary's largest |
| Resident use | Beaches, Floating docks and fishing piers, Swimming, Watercraft rentals, Stocked trout fishing, Ice fishing, Lake rinks and skate ovals, Tennis, Beach volleyball, Skate park, Gymnasium and banquet hall at the Beach Club |
| Annual fee | The association does not publish amounts. Fees vary by property type and are indexed to the City of Calgary September CPI; invoices go out in early November and are due 31 December. Ask for an Encumbrance Status Request to get the figure for a specific property. |
| Association | Mahogany Homeowners Association |
Every residential property in Mahogany has an encumbrance fee attached to the land title.
The lake fee is not optional. It is an annual residents' association fee that runs with the title, not a membership you can decline. Budget for it the same way you budget for property tax, and check the current amount before you write an offer — it changes.
Recreation
What the Mahogany Homeowners Association runs
Residents have exclusive access. Everything here is covered by the encumbrance registered on each property title. Separately, the Mahogany Community Association — the chartered community association, distinct from the homeowners association above — publishes no facility of its own: no hall, no rooms, no rinks. The lake club belongs to the homeowners association, not to it.

Which schools are inside Mahogany?
2 schools sit inside the community boundary: Divine Mercy School, Mahogany School. Being inside the boundary is not the same as being the designated school for a given address.
Which schools serve Mahogany?
A school being the closest one does not make it the designated one — catchments change year to year and can split a single street. Send me the exact address in Mahogany and I will confirm the designated school before you write an offer.
What are homes selling for in Mahogany?
Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately. Call 403-464-6672 and I will pull the actual recent sales in Mahogany — what closed, at what price, and how long it took.
