We’ll explore the history and notable features of this community to see if it’s the right one for you.

Welcome To Townsite

Townsite is one of the oldest areas in Powell River and was the first area developed after the opening of the mill. People love Townsite because of its charming character homes. However, what they don't realize is that it's got a lot more to offer than just beautiful old homes.

Townsite is home to the famous Townsite Brewing, which has been pumping out world-class beer since 2010. The friendly staff along with the fun atmosphere make Townsite Brewing a must-stop for anyone coming through the Powell River area. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better place to cool down on a hot summer day than on the back patio of Townsite Brewing.

Shopping And Dining

Townsite has recently had the old mall redone, which is now home to some amazing new local shops. Whether you're looking for ingredients to cook for dinner or a gift for a friend, Townsite market has a little something for everyone.

There are also some lovely restaurants in Townsite. If you're feeling like Greek, head to the Granada Restaurant. If you're feeling like Indian food, the Royal Zayka never disappoints.

The Lifestyle

Of course, not everything in Townsite requires you to spend money. There's a lovely dog park and a trail system that leads towards Westview to Willingdon Beach. On the north side of Townsite, the trail leads you towards the bottom end of Powell Lake.

Townsite also has outdoor tennis courts, a lawn bowling club, and is home to our local high school. One of the best things about Townsite is whether you go into the mall to grab a couple of things or want to watch a show at the old Patricia Theater, almost everything is within walking distance.

This community attracts a lot of different people, and those with a variety of lifestyles can enjoy the local amenities. If you're thinking Townsite might have something to offer you, come take a look for yourself. I'd be happy to be your tour guide.
