We looked at a dozen properties before selecting this one. My realtor asked if being close to the train tracks would bother me. Not only does it not bother me, but I love it! To me it is a novelty. We really enjoy being right down in the valley where we can walk to whatever we need, groceries, coffee, pizza, even an Ace Hardware. Also, when bike riding we don't have to dredge up a steep climb at the end of an outing. In winter, the tubing hill is only a few blocks away!
In summer, we enjoy WP's network of mountain biking trails, single track, hiking trails, and nearby lakes and reservoirs. Lake Grandby, Shadow Mountain, Willow Creek, Grand Lake are noteworthy. Also, it is fun to take the gondola on the mountain for hiking or biking, or restaurants and shopping.
Fraser Valley Recreation Center, Grandby Ranch ski area, Devil's Thumb Ranch, Snow Mountain Ranch YMCA all offer additional adventures and activities, including golf, horseback riding, spa, and much more.
