If you’re looking for a quieter location that is still within reach of the city, consider one of our three inviting communities to the south of Edmonton. You might be right at home in the charming surroundings of Ruisseau (in Beaumont), the peaceful setting of Meadowview (in Leduc) or the tree-lined landscape of South Ravines and Ravines of Devon.
Ruisseau
Located in the city of Beaumont, just a 5 minute drive past the Edmonton city limits, Ruisseau is a welcoming community with a sprinkling of French history and flavour.
Upgraded sports facilities
The Beaumont Sport and Recreation Centre is directly across the street from Ruisseau. This newly renovated facility offers a full-sized ice pad, a multi-sport fieldhouse, a gymnasium, a climbing wall, an aquatic centre and an indoor track to keep you active year-round.
Playgrounds and parks
The whole family will enjoy the accessible playground, multi-use trails and scenic storm pond. Walk to the nearby Four Seasons Park, which features a spray park, baseball diamonds, picnic sites, sports fields and trout fishing in Don Sparrow Lake.
Commercial amenities
In addition to the shops, restaurants and services in Beaumont, other retail options – including Costco and the Premium Outlet Collection at Edmonton International Airport – are a short 15 minute drive away.

Residents can choose from a variety of Public and Catholic schools, and construction of a new K to 12 Francophone school has been approved for the community.
