Grouse Woods
At the top of Capilano Road, along Nancy Green Way is Grousewoods- a small residential neighbourhood that lies right at the base of Grouse Mountain. This area has a cabin and resort-like feel to it because of its seclusion and close proximity to nature. Grousewoods is a newer development in North Vancouver, built in the 1980’s when the District opened it up for development. It is located at the foot of Grouse Mountain off of Nancy Greene Way. All homes were built under a strict building scheme designating that all homes had to be built as West Coast Contemporaries with paint in neutral earth tones and cedar shake roofs. This building scheme has since expired and you will see the odd house that has ventured out with different colours of paint, roofing, and most noticeably building styles.

Capilano Lake and the peaks of the Lions provide a spectacular backdrop. Capilano-Pacific Trail runs 5 miles (8 km) north from Ambleside Park to Capilano Lake.
