Golf Resort Real Estate Living: Add Fun to Your BC Address


A great article from the Homes and Resort magazine by D Murray about new golf resort real estate developments in the Okanagan BC recreational property market. Okanagan golf communities have become a solid hit in recent years, soaring beyond the success of original real estate golf communities like Gallagher’s Canyon in Kelowna property and Predator Ridge near Vernon. With options now ranging from the 4.5 star Spirit Ridge Residence Club at Nk’Mip Resort in the Osoyoos golf real estate desert country, to retirement living at Shuswap Lake recreational property Estates, the Okanagan is striving to become more than Canada’s leading golf destinations. With about 40 golf courses scattered throughout the Okanagan real estate and Shuswap golf property market, a growing number of quality courses are attracting more andm ore people to create and address near their favourite fairways and greens. Baby boomers are now joining the retirement crowd and enjoying many more free days to play the fairways and greens close to their own private golf resort real estate BC recreational property. “Yet, it’s not just the players who are getting excited about these BC golf communities,” says Gerry Lee of Acorn Homes, a busy seller of duplex villas and pre-construction detached homes at Sunset Ranch Community. “Half the people living here don’t even golf – they just like it because it is so quiet,” said Gerry. “your view has all this green space right below you that is always going to be impeccably maintained by the golf course.” With pre-sale duplex golf villas from $360,000 and single family pre-construction golf resort homes, Sunset Ranch community now has about 140 homes built by Acorn Homes. The recent phase release of 71 new golf resort lots in Phase 5 leads the way for another 260 homes to go in the hillside above the championship golf course. With its changing elevations, streams and mature trees, Sunset Ranch and the 18 year old Par 72 course provides a challenge appreciated by many golfers and homeowners at golf real estate resort communities in the BC recreational property market.

BC Shuswap Real Estate on Golf Resorts


Preparing for a launch into the resort real estate business is Hyde Mountain Golf Resort overlooking Mara Lake across from Sicamous. Pre-sales BC Shuswap resort real estate homes are not planned on the fairways of this five year old scenic course, but will be within walking distance of the Hyde Mountain clubhouse. Heading west to Salmon Arm and another 15 minutes north, Shuswap Lake Estates at Blind Bay has long been renowned as one of Canada’s premier retirement communities surrounding golf and more. The 500 hectare lakeside golf resort shuswap recreational property is filled with 1700 year round residents who enjoy the local tennis courts, a 600 metre air landing strip and sandy beaches by the marina. Residents on these golf resort property developments enjoy that the $22,000 golf initiation fee to play the par 72, 6467 yard golf course is waived at the time of purchase of a lot (priced from $154,000 to $300,000). Newly opened last August, the scenic 18 hole Talking Rock Resort Shuswap BC golf resort real estate is perched on the south shore of Little Shuswap Lake. Until the planned homes are developed, accommodations onsite are enjoyed at the uniquely designed Quaaout Lodge and conference Centre. Owned by the Little Shuswap Indian Band, the BC golf resort displays Native history, culture and traditional activites plus a fitness centre with pools. With so many BC golf courses to choose from, whatever shape your game is in, there’s probably a course in the BC interior real estate golf resorts that fits your style. And wherever you feel comfortable, you are sure to find a suitable addres at one of the local golf communities. It’s time to come out and play.

BC North Okanagan Golf Communities


In the hills west of Vernon, the Rise golf recreational community just opened its Fred Couples signature golf course in the burgeoning golf resort community, just a few km from Predator Ridge Golf Resort – the North Okanagans most acclaimed golf community for 17 years. Regenerating under new ownership by Wesbild, Predator Ridge Vernon recreational properties also recently unveiled a renovated clubhouse with improved cuisine in May, hosted world wide PGA golfers in June and launched construction on nine holes of golf to create two distinct 18 hole layouts for 2010. “there is a real sense of excitement here right now,” said Lee Gardiner, marketing specialist at Predator ridge North Okanagan BC golf resort real estate community. “Our visitors are going to have an incredible guest experience when they arrive here at the resort, which will start with our new curbside check-in.” Named the 2004 “community of the Year” in the Thompson Okanagan region, Predator Ridge golf resort was a finalist in 2006 for Best Community in Canada. Last year, the 27 hole course won an unprecendented second title of BCPGA Golf Facility of the Year. Adding to the current resort golf community of about 440 homes around this 500 hectare resort, this summer will unlease various new pre-construction Predator Ridge home options. These include the golf resort’s first multi-family townhomes to be released in mid-August and priced from $389,000. Also upcoming is the first all estate neighbourhood of 15 pre-sales Predator Ridge golf resort homes customized from the ground up, to overlook Okanagan Lake from atop Falcon Point. More than a BC golf resort course, community amenities include a fitness centre with a 25 metre indoor pool, outdoor pools and hot tubs plus a salon/spa. Just across the North east arm of Okanagan lake resort real estate property, The Rise golf resort is soon starting construction on new amenities – ranging from beach club and boutique winery – to complement the golf Club that opened in June with a course dedication by PGA star Fred Couples. The Rise golf course resort property boasts over 7000 yards of challenge, with 12 of the 18 hols enjoying tremendous vistas of Okanagan Lakes’ two northern arms flowing 400 metres below. Another seven hectares of vineyards to be swen this year will surround the recently announced The Rise Phase 3 property offering at this BC golf recreational resort in this $1 billion community. While preserving one third of the 300 hectares site as natural, about 600 presale golf resort BC homes are planned over 10 phases. A 40 minute drive east of Enderby, Mabel Lake Resort homes offers a remote, pristine setting with wilderness cottages, an air landing strip and a nine hole golf course in the Northern Okanagan real estate.

More original articles on these recreational Gulf Islands real estate developments.

Exploring Gulf Island Real Estate Market


An excellent article in the New Homes and Resort magazine by homebase media is now on shelves and this awesome editorial written by T. Rayson talks about the Gulf Islands of British Columbia recreational real estate property from Salt Spring Island, Mayne Island, Galiano Island, Pender Islands, Saturna Islands and Gabriola Island, all considered to be the southern Gulf Islands of BC resort property. Through the past decade property values on the Gulf Islands real estate market have skyrocketed and these beach and waterfront homes and other property developments have continued to soar in terms of affordability and value. Tracey says: When somebody mentions the Gulf Islands real estate, your first thought is not likely to include a lamb barbeque. Spas and art perhaps – but Mounties, music and mutton – not so much is that usually thought of when it comes to recreational Gulf Island real estate in BC. However, according to Saturna Island locals, this country-fair flavoured outdoor picnic celebrating Canada Day is a time honoured tradition. Held annually on the distinctly apropos venue grounds – “hunter field”, these laid back Saturna Island residents have been hosting this celebratory cookout every July 1st for more than half a century. This is a close knit community that the BC Gulf Islands are famous for. The wholesome and natural ambiance of the Gulf Islands real estate in BC recreational property entices visitors year round and tempts travellers to consider part or full time residency. According to Stats Canada, “The BC Gulf Islands appear to attract residents from outside of the province where 20 per cent have moved from other Canadian provinces or territories and another 9.7 per cent have moved to the BC Gulf Islands real estate from outside Canada.” The 2001 Census Profile of British Columbia’s Regions states: “Between the years 1996 and 2001 population in the Gulf Islands region increased from 3.0 per cent to 14.4 per cent. Of the six major BC Gulf Islands property that experienced the highest change in population, Saturna Island increased 9.3 per cent.” Made up of 225 islands, the BC recreational Gulf Islands resort property are tucked between Vancouver Island and the BC mainland in the Strait of Georgia and remain one of the provinces’ most envied lifestyles and scenic laden locales. Six major islands are serviced daily by the BC Ferries from both Vancouver and Victoria, in addition to their accessibility by floatplane or water taxi. The main BC Gulf Island real estate property market includes: Salt Spring, Pender, Mayne, Galiano, Gabriola, and Saturna Island are by and large the most inhabited and most visited of the BC Gulf Islands, offering a variety of activities and services unique unto themselves. Well known for their natural beauty, tranquility and environmentally conscious attitudes, Gulf Islanders are an eclectic bunch, with a significant number of artists and artisans, organic farmers, winemarkes and retirees contributing to the populace. Here is the run down of the larger BC recreational Gulf Island real estate communities.

Salt Spring Island Real Estate


(Population: 13,000, Ferry Terminals: Fulford, Vesuvius, Long Harbour, Size: 180 square km)
So named for the cold and briny saltwater springs on the north end of Salt Spring Island real estate, the 14 salt springs located on private property are the only springs on the southern Gulf Islands of BC. The springs vary in size from one metre to 25 metres in diameter, and are well known for their therapeautic benefits. Health restoring tonics and healing are commonly sought out commodities here, with yoga retreats and spa resorts paying homage ot the wellness movement of Salt Spring Island property; visitors come to restore their personal balance and wind up laying down roots in an attempt to maintain it. However, sustaining the Salt Spring Island real estate equilibrium is a tricky task: an even symmetry of tourism influx, limited property developments, building restrictions, ban on short term vacation rentals, and population density is the key to maintaining harmony within the Salt Spring community while keeping the local economy sustainable. Rated 69 out of a possible100 in the 2007 Destination Scorecard for North American Islands by National Geographic Traveler, one member observes: “suffering from being too popular, Major conflict between locals who want tourism and those who moved there to hide from humanity.” Balance for many Salt Spring Island residents comes in the form of exercising their creative muse. More than 100 artists and craftspeople of all kinds make their living on Salt Spring Island, which is recognized as home to the greatest collection of artists in Canada. A self guided Salt Spring Studio Tour with 32 stops and a Saturday Farmers’ Market with potters, jewellers, and woodworkers, to fibre artists, candle makers, and organic growers are on hand. Known as the “organic Gardening Capital of Canada.” With the country’s only organic golf course, (the Blackburn Meadows Golf Club has pesticide free greens and freeways) just about everything planted on the Salt spring Island real estate promotes practises that enhance the ecological balance of natural systems.

Mayne Island Real Estate


(Population: 1,112, Ferry Terminal: Village Bay; Size: 21 square km)
Mayne Island real estate is a distinctly rural character with small resort property developed areas dispersed and laid out along narrow country roads, where much of it is still thickly forested. Mayne Island is best known for the collection of turn of the century buildings at Miners Bay real estate, boatloads of miners with Gold Rush fever docked here and filled saloons and hotels en route to the mainland, where gold was discovered in the fraser River in 1858). The historic prison of Mayne Island property now serves as the community’s museum, foten filled in its heyday with rowdy and unruly prospectors passing through. Now, the historic buildings and Mayne Island real estate resort property are preserved as landmarks and Mayne Island has taken its place as a quiet getaway BC Gulf Island with a rich, colorful history. There is superb kayaking conditions afforded by its many sheltered bays and nearby islands and islets: boaters can find docking facilities at the government dock and can walk into the village of Miners Bay, Mayne Islands’s commercial hub; there are also docking facilities at Horton Bay. Choose from a variety of unique selection of accommdations including B&Bs, country inns, cabins, campsites and resort real estate waterfront Mayne Island property for rent with plenty of recreational opportunities. The Mayne Island Resort Inn and beach homes is now under development at Bennett Bay.

Galiano Island Real Estate


(Population: 1,258; Ferry Terminal: Sturdies Bay; Size: 57 square km)
Among the group of six main Gulf Islands BC, it’s been said that Galiano Island is considered the prettiest. Look to Montague Harbour Provincial Marine Park and Bluffs Park if you refute this claim: Montague’s 97 hectare park is all dolled up with beaches, forests, meadows, trails and a lagoon and Bluffs Park features one of the finest views of Active Pass you’ll encounter anywhere on Galiano Island real estate. Keeping in step with the other BC Gulf Islands property, Galiano island has a significant population of artists and artisans who are inspired by the Island’s natural beauty. Sheer cliffs, sand, pebble and white shell beaches, sheltered bays, unusal sandstone formations, Douglas Fir, arbutus and rare native Garry oak make up the natural beauty palette of Galiano Island real estate market, a haven for naturalists and bird watchers. The Galiano Island property is home to more than 130 species of birds and many rare and protected plants. Recently relocated residents strike a balance with long-timers, both contributing ot the Gulf Islnad property and each other. However, newcomers on Galiano Island real estate are easily spotted, as one resident admitted, “they still have their city shine.” Summer population on Galiano Island increases significantly with weekenders popping by to get a taste ofnature, recreation and visit the various galleries studios and shops. The recreational BC Galiano Island real estate market now welcomes the Galiano Oceanfront Inn & Spa fractional ownership of waterfront property today.

Saturna Island Real estate


(Population: 359; Ferry Terminal: Lyall Harbour; Size: 31 square km)
Forests, wetlands, mud flats, rock bluffs, reefs, and beaches are at the forefront of this quiet, year round hideaway at the recreational Saturna Island Gulf Island real estate property. Almost two thirds of the island is protected within the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, where over one hundred and eighty bird species from hummingbirds to bald eagles call home. Wildlife may be abundant but people are scarce: the permanent population on Saturna Island property for the rest of the residents remains small and intimate, preserving the charm and rural essence of the island. Homes and farms of Saturan Island real estate property are concentrated around East Point Road, which runs the length of Saturna Gulf Island between the ferry terminal and East Point. A rich and abundant marine life is visible on rocks and in tidal pools where river otters, seals, and sea lions swim the coastal waters, and for the patient sightseers, orca whales are frequently spotted in the waters off of East Point on Saturna Island property. Winter Cove, the site of the Saturna Lamb Barbecue, features sheltered anchorage and boat launching, with trails through mixed forests, marshland and shoreline to a view point at Boat Pass Saturna Gulf Islands recreational real estate. Below the rock bluffs on the south side of Saturna Island property are Saturna Vineyard and Winery, Thompson Park and Taylor Point.

Pender Islands (North and South) Real Estate


(Population: 2,232; Ferry Terminal: Otter Bay; Size: 36 square km)
Reconnected by a one lane bridge in 1957, two Pender Islands real estate are home to 37 coves and beaches; the Penders have more public beach acess for their size than any other Gulf Island resort real estate property. Of the 2,232 populace, the majority live on the north island: residents and visitors to these rural Pender Islands are scattered across country roads, in houses, farms, resorts and small clutches of cottages. Recreation on the Pender Islands real estate is varied and unique. Take for example, Frisbee golf, or in Seinfeld speak “frolf”. The 24 pin golf Islands Disc park, with its towering arbutus and fir, hosts an annual invitational tournament on the last weekend in May. The rest of the year it’s open to the general public at no cost. Accommodations and the Pender Islands real estate market include campsites at Prior Centennial Provincial Park, and Beaumont Marine Park, cabins, B&Bs and resorts. Boaters to the Penders Gulf Islands can find marinas at Port Browning, Otter Bay and Bedwell Harbour.

Gabriola Island Real Estate


(Population: 4,500; Ferry Terminal: Descanso Bay; Size: 53 square km)
A 20 minute ride from Nanaimo aboard BC Ferries will have you disembarking on Gabriola Island property, known for its beaches, waterfront parks, and newly acquired reputation for wooden boat building. It’s also recognized for its wealth of ancient native stone carvings and has inherited the nickname petroglyph island: more than 50 petroglyphs on Gabriola Island real estate have been discovered under thick moss at Jack Point, Lock Bay and Weldwood – best known is a carving of a killer whale found near Degnen Bay. The Malaspina Galleries on Gabriola Island property are one of the island’s biggest natural attractions and are an remarkable series of sandstone formations carved by the surf into unusual caves and caverns. Highlights include the tidal pools at Brickyard Beach, the sandstone path to the beach in Sandwell Provincial Park on Gabriola Island, and the Garry oaks in Drumberg Provincial Park. The Gabriola Island property population is largely concentrated on the north and south ends of the Island where many of Gabriola Gulf Islands’ residents are retired, but just as many commute daily to Nanaimo to work. Gabriola Island real estate is known for its abundance of galleries and studios, its thriving cottage industry in pottery and 80 plus varied and talented artists.
