Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Nicholson is the name of our little area south of Golden. We have the cheapest gas in town and The Ranch campground where you can walk for an ice-cream treat. The lazy Columbia River is one km down the road from the house. There you can fish wade or paddle/float into town. If you enjoy looking for rocks, the riverbed around Canyon Creek is 1.5 km away and fun for families. A hidden swimming gem is a 20 minute bike ride up and along Moonraker Mountain. This warm, secluded pond is utilized by a private campground (so no cars allowed). It is a perfect spot to dive in, swim out to the floating platform, and cool off part way through a ride. Did I mention friendly neighbours? We have those too!
