In the heart of rural Black Creek, nestled among farms and large residential acreages, this 50 acre property is just waiting for the right owner to develop it into something special. The property is fairly level, with a rise towards the very back western edge. It is fully treed. This property is a blank canvas, so a new owner would need to investigate services, including septic installation and domestic water. There is BC Hydro electrical power with poles on Doyle Rd. The property is within the ALR which allows for one primary residence and accessory buildings. Halfway between the two island highways, Doyle Rd is accessed via Macauley Rd off Hamm Rd at the junction with Highway 19A. The Oyster River, which is popular for hiking, swimming and fishing, is to the east of the property. This area is also popular with horseback riders and cyclists, including the Pinecrest Bike Skills Park nearby. Black Creek is located midway between the cities of Courtenay and Campbell River.

Rick has an exceptional amount of experience with buying and selling Real Estate on Mt. Washington. Not only was he the agent of note when we bought our condo 26 years ago but he was still there when it came time to sell it. Rick, with his confident and personal touch, made selling our condo a breeze. After only a short listing he was able to bring us a very reasonable offer and without a bump or breakdown the suite was sold. Thanks, Rick, for this stress free experience.
Rick has excellent communication skills and was optimistic and helpful while my property was listed. He was also tenacious, which is something admirable! Once he found a buyer for our land in Courtenay, he closed the deal quickly and professionally.
It was an easy go from start to finish. Rick prepared us for all scenarios and there was very little effort required by us to complete the transaction. This was one of the most positive real estate experiences we have ever had. It was a pleasure working with him.
After working with Rick nine years ago when buying our new house in Comox, we did not even think about anybody else to assist us in selling the house again in 2017. Rick walked with us during the whole process and followed up all the time. We are so grateful for the professional way he has handled everything.Thank you Rick, for once again understand our situation so well.
Our experience with Rick was fantastic! Wow, so quick and painless !! He answered all our questions clearly and professionally. There was no pressure, just positive encouragement that lead us to making the thrilling decision to buy a vacation home. Rick was always on time and was available to us at any time we needed to have a question answered or just some reassurance that our purchase was a sound one. It’s great to have someone so thoughtful and knowledgeable to work with. Thanks Rick !!
Working with Rick was an excellent experience. He is a diligent agent whose wealth of local knowledge provided great insights when considering where to buy in the valley. He was able to quickly narrow down and understand exactly what type of home I was looking for. He provided thoughtful pros and cons of all the homes we viewed together. He was a pleasure to work with and would highly recommend him.
We are very happy with our experience with Felicity Buskard as our selling agent with the Rick Gibson group. Felicity is a top notch professional. She provided us with excellent information and advice for our decision making processes as we listed and sold the house.
Rick is wonderful to work with. We literally took years to choose the right ski condo for us at Mount Washington, yet Rick never tired of showing us potential units. His knowledge of the overall market and specific buildings is incredibly impressive; and more importantly, he willingly shares everything he knows (even the not necessarily flattering tidbits) so we were able to make an informed decision. Thanks to Rick, we were fully confident in our choice and offer; and very happy with our final purchase.
