For many, Lake Hood epitomizes the real Kiwi dream of outdoor living in a beautiful environment. When Lake Hood opened 20 years ago, it marked the culmination of an extraordinary vision and years of effort by a group of local people determined to create a first-rate watersports lake in mid-Canterbury along with affordably priced resort-style living options. With its international standard rowing and water-skiing courses, the lake quickly became established as a popular recreational resource. Today, it regularly hosts national races and regattas including dragon boat races. Ongoing development has added another 20-hectares to the original 80-hectare expanse of water. Designed with curving shores, canals and peninsula areas, the Lake Hood community enjoys exceptional waterfront living. Many homes have a private jetty, as well as access to a dedicated boat ramp area. A limited-edition release of 40 canal-side lifestyle sections (Stage 14) quickly sold out after being put on the market last November. Today, Lake Hood is home to some 250 households, all located within easy walking distance of the stunning Lake House Restaurant & Bar. Lake Hood founder and local cropping farmer David West has served with the Ashburton Aquatic Park Charitable Trust (AAPCT) since 1989. He and wife Zdena are also long-time Lake Hood residents, who first built by the lake 18 years ago.
