Beacon Hill, Fort McMurray

Beacon Hill fits when you want a quieter south side street, trails close by, and room for a rebuild or an older home.

Beacon Hill took heavy damage in the 2016 fire, and rebuilding was cleared that September. Homes here mix manufactured, single family, and townhouses. Ask the build year, and ask whether it is manufactured or site built, on every listing.

About Beacon Hill

Where it sits

Beacon Hill is on the south side of Fort McMurray, next to Highway 63. The main road loops the neighbourhood and feeds quiet cul-de-sacs. It sits near Gregoire and the MacKenzie industrial parks, with walking trails and parks close by.

The 2016 fire

Abasand, Beacon Hill, and Waterways took the heaviest damage in the 2016 wildfire. In September 2016 the region cleared the way to rebuild in Abasand and Beacon Hill. That is why you see newer rebuilds beside homes that made it through.

Street names and the plan

City emergency maps name streets like Beacon Hill Drive, Beaconwood, Beaconsfield Road, Beaconview Place, Grandview Crescent, and Tolen Drive. Know your evacuation route before you need it. The region posts a Beacon Hill know your plan sheet for that.

Two elementary schools

Beacon Hill Public School is at 210 Beacon Hill Drive. Good Shepherd Community School is at 211 Beaconhill Drive (the school spells the street as one word). Check with each school board for grades and boundaries before you buy.

Arena, strip mall, and a 2026 playground project

Frank Lacroix Arena is in Beacon Hill. A strip mall on the way in anchors the Beacon Hill Food Store, with other shops nearby. The region is replacing the Beacon Hill playground with new inclusive equipment from summer into fall 2026. Check that it has reopened before you plan around it.
