Paradise Acres Ranch

Welcome to our friendly and exciting 125-Acre Horse Ranch with a Panoramic View of Mount Arrowsmith & Mount Moriarity!

Located close to the Englishman River & Rathtrevor Beach we have access to endless picturesque trails for riding, hiking and cycling! We enjoy sharing this Paradise with other Nature and/or Horse-Lovers! Located 15 minutes from North Nanaimo, five minutes from Parksville we have the best of all worlds.

Book Trail rides and a room in the Bed and Breakfast with cuisine by Certified 'Chef de Cuisine' Gerd Voigt in our outdoor Kitchen or enjoy RV or tent camping; or just book the Trail ride - you will enjoy! A brief riding lesson is included and the Ride is through some amazing terrain including Arbutus Groves at the top of a hill or perhaps around some ponds or through Craig Creek which transverses the property. The rides are adjusted to the level of the riders so everyone will have fun; from the absolute beginners to the very experienced riders.

If you would like to 'further improve' your riding skills we also have occasional and ongoing riding lessons year round.

The property is a mixture of fields and wooded areas with approximately fifty horses wandering the various pastures and paddocks! It is definitely 'worth a look'.
