The neighbourhood is within an accessible distance to the Mill Creek Ravine located west of the adjacent Bonnie Doon neighbourhood. Residents have easy access to shopping opportunities at Bonnie Doon Mall, located just west of the neighbourhood, and are within fairly close proximity to the Whyte Avenue commercial area located along 82nd Ave. The neighbourhood name was likely derived from the word “idyll,” which refers to a type of short poem that describes a simple or peaceful country life.
