Placemark’s work brings together land-use planning, market strategy, and phased development to align the community’s growth with existing zoning entitlements and long-term economic goals.

Situated against the eastern edge of Goldstream Provincial Park, Bear Mountain offers two Nicklaus Design championship golf courses, extensive trail networks, and a spectacular natural setting overlooking southern Vancouver Island towards downtown Victoria and the Olympic Mountain range.

Long celebrated for its premium homes and resort amenities, Bear Mountain now envisions a more diverse mix of housing and enhanced resort lifestyle. Placemark’s work brings together land-use planning, market strategy, and phased development to align the community’s growth with existing zoning entitlements and long-term economic goals.

The resulting masterplan balances enhanced resort amenities, a vibrant mixeduse village core, and new neighbourhoods with the preservation of its defining landscapes and iconic views.

Placemark remains engaged in supporting the future growth of Bear Mountain with designs that build on its unique character and celebrate its west coast charm.
