It’s been a busy year here in Chilliwack, and there’s so much more to come in 2024. We can’t wait to tell you what we’ve got planned! As you settle in to enjoy the holidays with your loved ones, we wanted to take a look back at 2023 at Canadian Retirement Developments with you:

Skynest Phase 2

The second phase of our beautiful Skynest development at the corner of Watson and Vedder was completed, ready for residents to move in during the summer…and move in they did! We have many happy new homeowners now living their best lives in their brand new, stunning condos.

There’s still some inventory available (click the "Residencies" tab in our navigation bar above, and select Phase 2), and our fantastic show homeis also for sale, so contact us now for more details on how you can join our happy and growing community!

Golf Tournament

Our annual Golf Tournament took place back in July at Cultus Lake Golf Club. It was a great opportunity for residents of Canadian Retirement Developments properties to come together and enjoy a great day of golf, prizes, and getting to know other homeowners, in the most fantastic setting possible.

It was an incredible day - the weather co-operated and it was sunny and warm all day.

We had a great turnout of residents from our properties in Chilliwack/Sardis: Skynest and Malloway Village, Englewood Courtyard and Englewood Village. With 45 people playing and almost 70 in attendance for the post-tourney dinner, the whole event showcased what a fantastic set of communities we are building with incredible people and amazing spirit. We couldn’t be more proud of our homeowners!

Thank you to Mark Perry and Andrew MacDonald for putting on the event again this year. Everything went perfectly, thanks to the organizational skills of our own Harry Doupe and Roger Jennings!

A HUGE thank you to our amazing sponsors who ensured no team went home empty-handed:

New Show Home Incoming at Malloway Village

Due to the sale of our previous show home, the sales office at Malloway Village moved into the Gate House a couple of months ago. A new show home will be up and running in 2024 to showcase the remaining Malloway Village inventory.

We’re excited to tell you about it in the next few weeks, and show you photos when it’s ready to go!

Our sales offices will be closed from December 22nd, reopening Jan 6, 2024.

from The Team at Canadian Retirement Developments!

There are so many places to get awesome food in Sardis, that you don’t need to go far to experience great eats just a few minutes away from Skynest.

As well as quick solutions for lunch or dinner, there are a number of restaurants on Vedder Road alone, that serve up food from around the world (or closer to home) so you have an incredible variety of places to go with friends or family, or with your new Skynest neighbours!

We’ve made a list of just a small selection of local eateries that have received great reviews online - decide what type of food you want to eat, and grab your coat!

Frankies Italian

7350 Vedder Rd

Frankie’s Italian is a local staple, and has been serving up great Italian dishes for years. Open for lunch or dinner, this a fantastic location for family get-togethers, a romantic dinner, or even dinner for one, because the staff will take such good care of you!

As well as a kids menu and more family-friendly dishes, you can enjoy their beef carpaccio and sauteed garlic prawns as part of your sumptuous dinner!

Coconut Thai

#6 - 7355 Vedder Rd

Coconut Thai is one of those gems that serve up delicious food in an unassuming location you might sometimes overlook. The reviews say it all - this is an authentic menu that covers a wealth of Thai cuisine: red curry, soup, pad thai - and it does it really well!

Opening at 10:30am daily, this place is ready to make lunch and dinner for you, and it’s located right across Vedder Road from Frankie’s Italian!

Butter Chicken House

5669 Vedder Rd

If it’s Indian food you’re craving, look no further than Butter Chicken House, right beside the Royal Canadian Legion. Open seven days a week, this restaurant offers a breakfast menu (it’s open at 11am Monday to Saturday, and Sunday from noon), but at dinner time, you can expect more traditional Indian fare, including of course - BUTTER CHICKEN!

You can also get Butter Chicken House food in the comfort of your Skynest home - order ahead to pick up, or go to the food apps to get it delivered right to your door.

Jolly Miller Pub

5865 Vedder Rd

The Jolly Miller is an institution, and for lunch or dinner, you’ll find locals and others alike enjoying this cozy pub atmosphere, with a great range of delicious food to accompany your pint/wine/soft drink.

While you can find traditional burgers and pizzas on the menu, there are also quesadillas, brunch, tacos, pierogies and more - as well as a turkey dinner around the festive period!

The Jolly Miller is a great place to socialize and meet new people as well, with themed nights and special offers on food and drink, depending on the day of the week.
