Echo
Homes for Sale
The Echo area is, and has long been, one of Port Alberni’s favourite neighbourhoods. Port Alberni is well known for having incredibly impressive recreational facilities for a community of its size. The Echo area's popularity stems from the fact that many of the Alberni Valley most beloved recreational facilities are located in the neighbourhood. The most well known of these buildings is the Alberni Valley Multiplex which boasts twin ice sheets, including the 1,800 seat Weyerhaeuser Arena, home of the BCHL's Alberni Valley Bulldogs. Next door to the multiplex is the new Port Alberni Athletic Hall which often hosts basketball games. On the other side is the Bob Dailey Track and Field Stadium. The area also enjoys: a beautiful field house overlooking a number of soccer and baseball fields; the Port Alberni Lawn Bowling Club; an awesome skateboard park; the Glenwood Arena; and the Fall Fair Grounds. Perhaps less impressive, but certainly focal to the area, is its namesake Echo Aquatic and Fitness Centre and the Alberni Valley Museum.
Homes in the neighbourhood range from charming character houses, to family homes in well-established subdivisions, to some of Port Alberni’s newest houses. The area is particularity popular with seniors, due to the proximity to shopping, hiking trails, doctors and dentist offices, the West Coast General Hospital, and the new RCMP detachment. The Sunshine Club, for residents over 50 years old, is also popular in the area. Nearly every development of patio homes geared towards retirees are located in, or near the Echo area.
The Echo area is also home to notable education facilities. The $58 million dollar, state-of-the-art Alberni District Secondary School is a site to behold. The school has modern instructional and classroom space, but also features a 500-seat theatre, two gymnasiums, a fitness room, a dance studio, an artificial turf field, a First Nations gathering space and a youth health clinic. Just up the street is the stunning North Island College Alberni Valley Campus surrounded by beautiful second growth forest.
No matter where you are in the idyllic Echo area you fill find a quintessential Vancouver Island backdrop with Mount Arrowsmith serving as the focal point. With all of this, it is no wonder that the Echo area is one of the Alberni Valley's favourite neighbourhoods.
