Shopping in Sylvan Lake: where the stores are

Most of Sylvan Lake's independent stores sit within two blocks of each other on 50 Street, the downtown main street one block up from the beach. Between the 5000 and 5050 blocks you will find Cobb's Clothing (the town's longest-running women's fashion boutique, with roots going back nearly a century), Spotted Gecko Clothing (casual apparel, since 2005), Once Again Consignment Boutique, Creative Flowers Art & Gifts, The B Nest Floral Design & Studios, Moon & Lotus for crystals and wellness gifts, and Grounded & Rooted for natural clothing and yoga essentials. The Baby Footprint, an eco-conscious baby and family shop, is also in the heart of town.

On the lakefront, Sweet Home on the Lake at 5000 Lakeshore Drive is a two-storey boutique with clothing, jewellery, home decor and its own bakery-cafe. Over at Hewlett Park Landing, Peppertree & Co. has sold clothing, jewellery and gifts since 1997 next door to Green Gables Antiques. Nomads (Nomads Station) on 47th Avenue is the family-run action-sports store for wakeboard, snowboard and skate gear, and Aurora Quest Outdoor Sports Gear carries hiking, camping and water-sports equipment.

For groceries with a local twist, Party Chef Market & Kitchen on 50 Avenue is a year-round farm-to-table market, Sylvan Star Cheese sells its award-winning Gouda from the farm store off Highway 11A, and HolmeHus Antiques & The Farm with the Good Food in Red Deer County pairs Danish-inspired antiques with free-range eggs and freezer beef. Everyday essentials are covered by Canadian Tire Sylvan Lake on Thevenaz Industrial Trail and Sylvan Lake Home Hardware Building Centre on Erickson Crescent.
