From the DUKE POINT Ferry:
As soon as you get off the Duke Point Ferry, look for and take the Cedar Road left turn lane. This will run parallel to the highway, then turn right overpassing the highway. Follow the signs to Cedar until, eventually you will come to a 3-way stop sign. Turn left over the highway again, onto Macmillan Road. A very short block takes you to the Esso station/Mill way store, here turn left onto Holden-Corso Road. You will pass small farms and twists in the road: stay on the main road, following the yellow line (at the sharp S-curve, the road changes name to Barnes Road, and Holden-Corso Road goes off to the right - stay on Barnes). Keep on past the farms until you crest a hill and see the ocean. Take the next left onto Leask Road. One block, at the top of the hill on Leask Road you will see a set of mailboxes, there turn left on Ivor Road, then immediately turn left again into our driveway. It is marked with a sign and 1431 Ivor Road. Whew! You made it, the view is worth it!

From the DEPARTURE BAY Ferry:
After disembarking the ferry go straight through the first set of lights onto Stewart Avenue directly into Nanaimo. Follow the signs for Highway 19A through Nanaimo on the route to Victoria. Carry on south of Nanaimo past Petroglyph Park to Chase River. You will go through several sets of traffic lights. Watch for the Cedar Road exit, then stay left, and the traffic light there allows for two left lanes to turn onto Cedar Road. You will pass the Regional Landfill, trees and scattered homes. Carry on straight after crossing the Nanaimo River bridge, where the road becomes Harmac Road. (Do not take Cedar Road as it turns right). Travel along Harmac Road until you come to a three-way stop sign. Take a right turn onto Macmillan Road. A very short block takes you to the Esso station/Millway store, here turn left onto Holden-Corso Road. You will pass small farms and twists in the road: stay on the main road, following the yellow line (at the sharp S-curve, the road changes name to Barnes Road, and Holden-Corso Road goes off to the right - stay on Barnes).

On Highway 19 north of Ladysmith look for the right turn lane to Cedar and Yellow Point. Travel past the intersection of Yellow Point Road. Along the way you will pass small farms, a corner store with gas station, more farms, the Cedar Community Hall and Memorial Gardens. The road straightens out and comes to a "Y" intersection where the Yellow Point loop route joins Cedar Road again. Immediately after this intersection turn right on Wobank Road. Turn right onto Holden-Corso Road.
