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.

I communicated with Rick for many years re the sale of a property on Mount Washington. I found Rick to be very professional, personable and pleasant to communicate with. I would recommend him as an excellent real estate agent to any prospective buyer or seller.
We have known Rick for 16 years, as we purchased our brand new condo in Bear Lodge at Mount Washington through Rick. A very pleasant experience and his knowledge and passion about the mountain always shows. We have had encounters with Rick on strata council, as owners and as directors and Rick is always professional and has the best interest of Bear Lodge in mind. When it was time for us to sell our condo, we wouldn’t have chosen anyone but Rick to represent us. We had a quick and easy sale, and with many memories of great family time at Bear Lodge, we say goodbye.
All aspects of the sale for which Rick Gibson was responsible were carried out efficiently and in a professional manner. He worked hard to sell my property and succeeded in difficult market conditions; He kept me informed of progress throughout the process and advised me in strategic decisions to facilitate sale of the unit. His extensive knowledge of the Mount Washington property organization and how things are done within that legal framework was extremely valuable on many occasions throughout my ownership of my home on the mountain, as he willingly shared his knowledge and advice. I recommend him to any buyer or seller of property, particularly on Mount Washington.
We have known Rick since 1989, and he looked after the purchase of our lot in Courtenay. When things started to go sideways, he coached us through the process, to a very satisfactory conclusion, and we are still friends today.
Rick was an excellent resource in our search. Very knowledgeable and never hesitated to provide thorough information. Feels more like a family member than a realtor, thank you for everything Rick!
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.
