Maple Ridge being my hometown, I have a soft spot for it, the downtown area has improved a lot over the last 10 years, and there are a few great local restaurants (including the best pizza shop in Metro-Vancouver IMO).
The greatness of Maple Ridge is the mountains and lakes (I grey up on a farm next to them). Summers were always the best, floating down the rivers (such as Gold Creek and Alouette River) and of course spending the afternoons at North Beach on Alouette Lake, best swimming spot on Metro-Vancouver. The golfing was always great as well. Kanaka Creek is another gem.
