Welcome to the Oxbow
lands at the east end
of Dunbow Road
Hi neighbour! We're Walton.
Some years ago, we purchased land at the east end of Dunbow Road adjacent to the Bow River, and the Cottonwood Golf & Country Club. We started to get to know the community then and have continued to connect with our neighbours over the past several years as we have developed a vision and plan for the Oxbow lands.
Our Story1235 acres. One Community.
The land we purchased is in the community of Davisburg within Foothills County. It's located northwest of the confluence of the Bow and Highwood Rivers and in close proximity to the City of Calgary.
