Prices aren't budget friendly but the food is excellent. I had the best steak I've ever had here. Get a seat at the window. The view is beautiful. Semi formal setting.

Parks & Nature

I'm still wowed every time I go here. You drive to the park and then ride or walk the trail. So much to do. I even went riding with my 3 year old on the trial. It gets very narrow at the end so it might not be safe to go all the way with children. The length you can go is enough though. Just beautiful.

Nice, short walk up the trail and you'll get to the top of the falls. The best part is at the bottom where you can get your feet wet.

You might not be able to climb all the way to the top with small children. It's fun even if you only go half way up though. There is even blueberries on that trial.

This is not a very large lake but it's a nice walk from our place. It's close to the road but it's in a residential area so traffic is little.

There's a very nice playground/ park close by. Huge pond with a lot of ducks. Please don't feed the ducks. They won't migrate if they are being fed and they poop a lot more and make the pond stinky.

Nice to walk around and for bike rides. The polar bear playground is the next right turn after the park. There’s a small golf course at the side with the chalet. Very close to Costco.

This is the downtown center. There are two buses that go by us though. It's best to get a car while you're here though.
