Morningstar Golf Club is tucked neatly into the seaside community of Parksville… a popular holiday destination on Vancouver Island and a great place for a relaxing golf getaway, just 25 minutes north of Nanaimo and two hours north of Victoria. With many championships to its name —including three PGA Canada events— the fairways and greens of Morningstar, were carved out of natural woodland areas under the watchful eye of award-winning course architect Les Furber. The course opened in 1991, and today you will encounter the sloping fairways, rolling undulations, well-conditioned greens, and strategically placed bunkers that were designed to challenge the potential of every golfer. Post-game (or just because you are hungry) join us at the Morningstar Grill for a pint or a glass of wine and something tasty from the menu to enjoy while you discuss the details of the day’s round… embellishing as needed!

We are a small group of local people, your friends and neighbours, who are passionate about food and people. The majority of us come from a long background in the grocery industry, and wanted to return to our roots – the days when you could walk into your local grocery store and talk to your butcher, see your baker making the pastries from scratch, learn from the experience of the person in produce. It is important to us that you are able to purchase products that are made and grown locally in your community. Chefs are on site to make gourmet meals with local ingredients, grown as close to home as possible, making your life just a bit easier. We even have fresh, local seafood, a wide variety of artisan cheeses, and a hand picked selection of imports for those few items that cannot be grown locally here on our island.

Situated along the pristine Englishman River north of Nanaimo, Englishman River Falls Provincial Park features two stunning waterfalls cascading along the descending riverbed into a deep canyon. This picturesque destination, set amid a lush old-growth and second-growth forest of Douglas fir, cedar, hemlock and maple, is an ideal location from which to explore and appreciate the incredible diversity of south central Vancouver Island, including nearby Cathedral Grove, the Pacific Rim, and the sandy shores of Parksville and Qualicum. The park has a large day-use area and campground and contains several hiking trails that meander through the forest and along the river. Visitors can expect spectacular views along the way, particularly from two bridges that cross the river where it plunges down the narrow rock canyon toward quieter waters below. The lower falls end in a deep crystal-clear pool – an ideal swimming hole in the summer when river levels are low and a great place to view spawning salmon in the fall.

Take a walk in the Heritage Forest of Qualicum Beach, 50 acres of rare remnant old growth forest - a mixture of Coastal Douglas Fir, Western Red Cedar, Hemlock, Grand Fir & Sitka Spruce. Smile at the locals as you walk along the mulch trails and peer down a lush ravine into a salmon bearing stream. You will also discover rare and endangered plants, deer, and many species of birds - only five minutes from downtown. While the Heritage Forest preserves the natural history of Qualicum Beach, it is just as interesting to learn about how it became a park for all to enjoy. Visit the Heritage Forest website to learn about its rich history, including ties to royalty and Hollywood, and the movement to save it from development.
