Stoker Park frames shoreline, forest and Meades Creek where rocky outcrops, a small dock and marshy inlets create strong foregrounds and mirror reflections on calm water. Best at sunrise and golden hour for warm low light and at calm evenings for glassy lake reflections; misty mornings in spring/fall add mood. Small parking area off Marble Bay Rd; short walks on easy trails. No entry fee — bring insect repellent in summer. Great for intimate landscape and nature studies of the Cowichan Lake edge
