The pizza is made in a wood fired oven and is a fantastic sourdough, so good for the gluten intolerant too!! They sell out early online, so recommend ordering early or going in person to order if so and picking up after if it’s sold out. It’s a nice place to dine too, but not loads of seats…

Exercise and dog walks

The creek and trail in under the bank the house is on and leads to a beach less than 10 mins away. It also goes North through the woods on the opposite side of the house for a change of scenery. It's not off leash by city rules until you get to the beach, but if your dog is chilled most people walk the dog off leash anyway. There are poo bags half way in case of emergency. Deer, Owls, Racoons and wildlife is in abundance here

About 15-20 mins walk from the house is Goose Spit Park. The beach is great for a swim (go about half way down opposite the toilets for 2 best the sandy entry points). Off leash for dogs and a popular spot for Paddleboarding

Tubing in Courtenay, a short drive from the house. Bring your own or rent from places like Blue Toque sports. They have maps and pick ups and your trip can end right by Gladstone Brewery :)
