Just a walk in the woods.

Surfside RV Resort, Parksville BC (2 stars)

First time in Shelly Park this season, and it was great.

Shelly Park is a destination gem in Parksville. The forest is thick with spectacular and endless shades of green and a multitude of flora, most are natural to the area I'm sure. The camera snapped 60 photos - yes, we will not put the ALL on the website, just the 59 spectacular ones. GRIN.
