THE RED PHEASANT COUNTRY INN B B. We have over 6 acres of land for you to enjoy. The buildings and riding ring are at the front, leaving the back of our property undisturbed. The front provides a panoramic view of Mt. Benson. You may want to sit with your morning
coffee and watch horses being schooled. Your private
patio overlooks the fields and forest. This is where you will see deer, eagles, pheasants (what else?) and even the occasional bear. A few horses graze in this area, too. If you stroll towards the duck pond you will find Custard and his friends splashing around. (Custard, far right). If you want a nature walk, wander a bit further back down to the River. This is a nature area full of west coast flora fauna. It is considered so important that the Ministry of Environment funded the Millstone Greenway Pilot Project. This area is considered a conservation corridor.
