Location and commute
Riviera sits in Southwest Cochrane (part of the Riversong area, south shore of the Bow River). Plan on roughly 30-35 min to downtown Calgary via Hwy 1A/Hwy 22, longer in rush hour, though your real drive depends on your route, the time of day, and traffic on the day. Cochrane is its own community with its own amenities, so day to day you may not need to drive into Calgary as often as you expect.
