You are only a 15 minute walk from Starbucks for that morning caffeine fix. For groceries there is Windsor which is a 16-minute walk. You are only a 10 minute walk from great parks like Nelson Canyon Park, Whyte Islet Park and Whytecliff Park.

Without a car, you can get around rather easily. The closest transit stop is a BusStop (Westbound Marine Dr @ 5800 Block) and is a short walk, but there is also a Subway stop, Burrard Station Platform 1, a 17-minute drive connecting you to the TransLink. It also has (Bus) route 250 Horseshoe Bay/dundarave/vancouver nearby.
