About Bentley

Here, in the Town of Bentley, we know this simple, magical, immense word well. Call it serendipitous or mere coincidence, but it’s in our name…at the very beginning of it all in fact… hidden in plain sight just beneath the crisp, clean sheets and bedskirts of a model small town along the prairies of central Alberta.

With convenient access to major urban centres, essential amenities and provincial attractions, and a no limit approach to all season recreational adventure or relaxation, the model small Town of Bentley isn’t just a dot on the map, it’s a checkmark off your bucket list.

Enjoy a kaleidoscopic adventure of vividly hued, lifestyle-defining moments worth basking in; surrounded by good-natured folk for short times or long times, but always good times. Whether exploring the charming rural architecture, unique and whimsical shops, or lively nightlife of Main Street, the best in artisan creations and craft foods and beverages at the Bentley Farmer’s Market, the sunbaked sandy beaches of Gull Lake for swimming and boating, or the sacred Medicine Hills against the snowcapped backdrop of the Rockies for skiing, hiking, and trail and mountain biking, be ready for boundless possibilities…

A twist of the kaleidoscope reveals no angles — just the most economical and sustainable cost of living options within the Highway 2 corridor. Housing choice and affordability give rise to all ages ownership, growing families, and cultural diversity; supported by safe streets, warm smiles, a school system that cares to take the time to get to know its students, and extensive local recreational activities including the annual Bentley Fair, Rodeo and Car Show — drawing enthralled spectators of all ages with impressive displays of wild and flashy pedal to the metal, grab the bull by the horns bravado and blistering action. Much more than just all-inclusive and family-friendly, we’re family first for the sustainable future of our community.
