Gold River is a small village on the west side of Vancouver Island, about 90 km west of Campbell River on Highway 28, at the edge of Strathcona Provincial Park. The Village of Gold River runs its own bylaws, building permits, business licences, dog licences, planning and zoning, water, parks and recreation, streets and snow clearing, and weekly residential curbside garbage collection (Wednesdays). The Drop Off Depot on Hilke Road is a Comox Strathcona Waste Management transfer station at the Village's public works yard. The Strathcona Regional District supplies the Village's building official and the interactive map, and the RCMP provide policing. Marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences are provincial matters.
