Love this park! My daughter went there with her class, i figured we should bring her brother next time. Plenty of parking. It was a beautiful morning, and visiting the inside of the red barn had been definitely the highlight for the kids. The barn is only open to the public on weekends and stat holidays, i believe. The picnic areas have benches and water access and the washrooms are well maintained. I noticed signs that the picnic area is now a zone people can drink alcohol in public. Doesn't apply to me but I'm sure some people enjoy it. I just hope they are acting responsible and especially don't drive after....

We visited Campbell Valley Regional Park yesterday and had such a peaceful and refreshing experience. The trails are well-maintained, perfect for a walk with family. Beautiful greenery, bird sounds, and open meadows made it feel like a nature escape. There are plenty of picnic spots, clean washrooms, and the overall atmosphere is very calm. Highly recommended for nature lovers and families looking for a quiet day out!

Excellent park with hiking trails. Loved the easy walks, mostly shaded but some areas are exposed. Lots of picnic tables and bathrooms nearby. Really enjoyed the day.

Lovely walking trails, plenty of parking, nice washrooms on one side but the other side were very questionable. 1 of the trails we wanted to walk were closed down when we went. Lots of great areas for photos but they do have a sign about requiring a permit for photography (I didn't know this was a thing!)

We did 8.7 kilometer due to road closure. We saw green colored garden snake and it was great weather

Nice place for a walk on trails. Parking is not abundant, so it can be somewhat challenging.

Campbell Valley Regional Park is a great mix of open fields, forest trails, and wetlands, making it feel like you’re stepping into the countryside. The trails are mostly flat and easy, so it’s perfect for walking, biking, or even horseback riding. I liked how peaceful it felt—lots of bird calls and quiet corners where you can just slow down. The old Langley Speedway site adds a bit of history, and the picnic areas are well-kept if you want to make a day of it. It’s also dog-friendly, which makes it a popular spot for locals.

Derby Reach is a great local park for the whole family including the dog. There is three separate off leash fenced dog areas with one on the river to cool the dog down. Great walking trails including the Fort to Fort which is pretty long. A good picnic area with bathrooms near the parking lot. Decent spots to view the Fraser River and to the east side of the park is Edgewater campground which everyone staying there gets a waterfront spot on the river. Her is a picture of a campground spot.

Beautiful walking trail. The scenery is tranquil and peaceful.

Very nice park for outdoor family gatherings. There is a huge off leash park for dogs and walking and biking trails.

Nice scenery. Cozy camping experience. Campground side has only pit toilets whileas the picnic area had flushed toilet and (coin) shower facility. Picnic area parking close at 10pm.

Derby Reach Regional Park is a beautiful spot for families, friends, and dog owners. There are multiple off-leash fenced dog areas, including one by the river where pets can cool off. The walking trails are scenic and peaceful, with the Fort to Fort trail offering a longer route for those who enjoy a good stroll. The campground provides a cozy experience, though it only has pit toilets, while the picnic area offers flush toilets and coin-operated showers. Plenty of fresh air, lovely scenery, and space to relax — a great place to unwind.

Derby Reach Regional Park is a peaceful riverside escape with a mix of open fields, forest trails, and heritage sites. The Fort to Fort Trail is a local favourite — flat, scenic, and great for walking or cycling. The Edgewater Bar campground is simple but well-kept, with picnic tables and fire rings. It’s a solid spot for birdwatching and quiet strolls, especially in the early morning. Downsides? It can get buggy near the water in summer, and some areas flood after heavy rain. Limited shade in the open fields means it gets hot fast, so bring water and sunscreen. Still, it’s a relaxing place to unwind without leaving the city too far behind.

Thank you to Strong start park side so we knew this place. We went to join them for kick off to spring break, so much fun. Really nice park, nice camp ground by the river. We didn't walk around because we were busy but I saw many trails so will go back to check it out. We went to edge water bar one. So we will definitely go for camping there. Really clean camp ground, really clean washrooms and parking spots, picnic area by the river. Plus the new washrooms are in construction now

This site is incredibly well maintained and thoughtfully run. Whether you’re visiting with kids, friends, or just on your own, it’s a great stop for all ages. It offers a hands-on glimpse into early Canadian life. The staff and volunteers are friendly and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. A must-visit if you’re exploring the area.

Wow, it was a great place to learn about Canada’s history. I was amazed this village is preserved for our next generations of Canadians… the one in the fur area was welcoming and she was amazing in explaining Canada’s history… she is awesome!!!!! Thank you so much for being so welcoming and explaining the history of how different furs impact our history….

Fort Langley National Historic Site 🇨🇦 is an absolute gem! Stepping inside feels like traveling back in time — the grounds are beautifully preserved, and the atmosphere is full of history and charm. From interactive exhibits to hands-on activities, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re a history buff or just looking for a fun family outing. It’s the perfect blend of entertainment and learning — a must-visit when exploring the Fraser Valley!

This is just a marvel to watch. The place has been preserved and takes to actual historic times. There's a small café that serves excellent summer beverages. We spent around 5 hours, still felt it's not enough to explore the whole place.

We absolutely enjoyed this space during our visit. Staff was friendly, helpful and the space was immaculate. And excellent way to spend a day out with the family. And I absolutely LOVED this café, I wish all Vancouver Cafés would start serving this level of healing yumminess.

Intricate stories at every stop provide a welcoming atmosphere for even the faintest of history buffs. Each building is a place bringing back a time in Canada's history in a fun, at times interactive way. Lots to see in every corner. Pull the handle on boxes to be surprised by artifacts. See what Blacksmiths, Traders, Stewards and many others used to do in a time far from the present. Live demonstrations and friendly interpreters make the experience immersive.

Visiting Fort Langley felt like traveling back in time. The well-kept historic site has interesting exhibits and helpful guides. It's a great place for history lovers and families.

Nice to visit here!!! But you definitely need to bring your own car here!!! 🚗🚙🚘🚖 (If you want to hike this mountain!!!) and please do not visit there till autumn - early summer!!! It is pretty snowy and cold in the top part of the mountain!!! (You can also die sir… if you disobey my advices and quotes..) (Because I experienced it…)

One of my favourite Park. This park is huge. They have a lot of entrances. Some on the left some on right. There are forest, river, big lake, small peace lake, mountains… in the park. Make sure come earlier as so many things to do and see. Enjoy the nature in Golden Ears.

Great place for a quick hike and great trails too! It is very beautiful place, quite occupied, family friendly and fun trails to the creek. It will take all about 3 hours to explore the trail to the creek and back, especially if you stopped here and there to admire views and side locations to sit. But be careful cause your phone signal will be off if you are at the north beach or go up the trail. You can find camping sites, bathrooms are well distributed,

BC at its finest, this is an amazing park. It’s got it all. From a pristine lake to waterfalls and hiking trails for all. I can’t say enough about this great park and definitely recommend coming here if you can. Lots has been written about this park, so skip the words and come to this place and experience nature at its finest.

Beautiful provincial park however it is extremely busy. During camping seasons you must buy a camping spot within the literal second the tickets go online or you are screwed. Not to mention you need day passes for certain days during the summer and winter which I find ridiculous. It is also an extremely busy park in general and you will have a hard time finding a nice secluded spot with no people unless you really hike. That being said this park is truly beautiful with amazing waterfalls and lakes with gorgeous surrounding by mountains and forests.

Golden Ears Park is a gem for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Nestled in the heart of British Columbia, this park offers stunning vistas, diverse trails, and a serene atmosphere. Whether you're into hiking, picnicking, or just soaking in the natural beauty, Golden Ears has something for everyone. The trails vary from easy walks to challenging hikes, all with breathtaking views of mountains and lakes. The park is well-maintained, with clean facilities and friendly staff. It’s a fantastic spot for families, groups, or solo adventurers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. 🌻 Highly recommended!

We camped at the Gold Creek campground the week after the long weekend. The park rangers are incredibly helpful, and they maintain the park beautifully. While we camped, I saw them clean the bathrooms 2-3 times a day, checking campsites to be sure there were no squatters, and enforcing the day pass rule so the park wasn’t over crowded. Overall it was a wonderful stay and beautiful weather.

Sprawling paved paths around forested green swimming lake, showers to rinse off outside. There are several entrances, an expansive dog park, ample parking, and a tennis court. Very dog friendly, clean and they have a few trashcans about the trails.

Very fun Lake to take the family to. Hot days can be pretty crowded but you can usually find a small cove with privacy if you don’t want to be near crowds. It’s fun to walk around the entire lake, about 2.5 miles or so. Has some decent size hills. Also good fishing, I have not personally fished the lake but I often see people getting good catches. There are water fountains. The bathrooms get locked towards the evening. There’s a dog park along with an off leash trail. And a playground

Great spot to walk, swim, kayak, fish....ya know, all that outdoorsy stuff. Nicely maintained.

This is a very well maintained Park with a pristine and serene Lake. There are 3 entrances ( i believe) to this park, each with its own parking lot and amenities (such as bathrooms, picnic area and playground). We love the bike trail that circles the entire Lake and connects to the mountain bike trails. And yes, you're allowed to ride an E-assist bike here, but please respect the speed limit of 15 mph.

I came here specifically for fishing and while there is a dock for fishing it's dilapidated. The benches are rotted and the deck isn't much better. Tons of swimmers, kayakers, and people just enjoying their day. Seems like it would be crazy busy in June while the college is still in term.

I spent a sunny morning walking the mostly flat lakeside loop and loved how everything feels compact and easy to use. The main trail is smooth and friendly for joggers, families with strollers, and dog walkers, while short side trails climb into quieter forested spots if you want birdwatching or a bit of solitude. There’s a small boat launch and plenty of picnic space, so bring a blanket and snacks; midweek parking is easy but weekends get busy. Wear comfortable shoes and a light layer for lake breezes.

Beautiful environment, the lake and. Picnic areas are nice, the park is well worth visiting.

This is a beautiful park with well-manicured trails, a picnic area, a playground, and plenty of open space to walk around. We visited on a weekend and it was fairly busy, so if you’re looking for total solitude you may want to choose another spot. That said, it still felt peaceful and relaxing, with lots of room to explore and enjoy the outdoors. We’d definitely come back again for another visit.

This is amazing park with many trails where you can go for a walk, jogging or cycling. There are multiple and different parking stalls on different areas. And absolutely a beautiful waterfall and lakes around the park. Many areas for pets with leash and without leash area. Other spots for a birthday party and BBQ. Don’t hesitate on visiting this place you will absolutely enjoy it.

Very cool park with ample parking, a playground for kids, paved walking paths for handicapped visitors, and several walking/hiking trails for more adventurers. There's also a fish hatchery there, not sure how active it is. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

Amazing place to walk and explore, swim at your own risk, great scenery and friendly locals . Love the falls and swim hole.

Great hiking, walking, jogging paths along the river. Beautiful and well maintained!!

Was a quick hike, absolutely beautiful in the fall. We got wet from the rain, but it was easy to get to. We will visit again and explore more of the trail another time!

Amazing and cute little park! The falls are beautiful, with the amenities of a small city park (playgrounds, tennis and basketball courts, bathrooms, off-leash dog areas, etc.) but with trails that feel like you're out in the middle of the woods. Waterfalls and small creek are very charming. The pools made by the dams are picturesque. Love that the waterfalls and stone bridge is so close to the parking lot.

Gorgeous urban nature park with a 2.17 km paved pathway around a stunning man made lake complete with sizeable fountain. For bird enthusiasts, various water fowl and marsh birds can be heard and spotted, such as the red winged black bird. You might even spot a painted turtle sunning themselves! There are 3 playground areas, a water park, outdoor pool, picnic areas and baseball diamond. Plenty of open and shaded spots with park benches available, including a small floating dock for fishermen or anyone wanting to enjoy the lake breeze.

This is a great place to hang out with friends and family on a nice sunny day. Me and my husband usually come here for an after dinner walk. We love how relaxed and serene the atmosphere here. Bicycles are allowed here, pets on a leash are allowed except by the playground area. Washrooms are available and picnic tables are all over the place as well as benches. It’s a good 30-45 minute walk if you do the full circle. I like the bridge area the most especially during sunset. Also, I have seen a few men fishing by the dock and I have asked them what fishes are usually caught and they said it’s mostly trouts here. So, if you like to fish you can try it here. A lot of geese all over the place so watch out for land mines! Lol! Parking may be a challenge during peak hours. This place is friendly to all ages, wheelchair and stroller accessible!

The park is beautiful, well maintained and has a lot of nature. It is family and pet friendly. It has public bathrooms. It is a good place to practice many different sports including jogging and running. Also good for a picnic or to enjoy good time outside with family, pets and friends. The only thing preventing it to be 5 stars is that it does not have lights enough to enjoy it when it is dark.

Fairly nice park with pretty views. Paths are paved. Lots of parks along the loop, with playgrounds, washrooms, benches, and parking. Also a place to fish aswell as a boat ramp. Expect to see lots of ducks, birds and squirrels. Sadly a lot of homeless hanging out and camping in the area. Was approached multiple times while walking the loop which made me a bit uncomfortable as a young woman. Maybe not the best place to walk alone.

EDIT- this should be called Goose Lake, the park is just ripe with goose droppings. They’ve covered the walkways, paths, all the fields. It’s just absolutely disgusting! Other than that I could be beautiful park for humans but the geese have overtaken!!! My dog loves to go for walks around the lake but right now he doesn’t even want to walk the pathways and just directs to the sidewalk outside the park!

I loved this park, I went with my partner and my 7-month-old baby, we did the complete circuit, we were able to see many animals and plants, and the view of the lake is very beautiful. I recommend it

Beautiful park with a 2.5 km looped walking trail around the lake. You can see Mt Baker in the distance and there are benches and picnic tables around the park where you can sit and enjoy the view. There are parking lots scattered in different parts of the park and a big playground for kids next to each lot. Very clean and close to residential neighbourhoods. This is a beautiful park to visit for families, friends, and lovers.

There is 350m elevation to get to the suspension bridge but nice views from there. Suspension bridge is exciting and offers nice place to take photographs. Slightly challenging for those who’ve leg injury or mobility issues. Lots of parking but can get full during summer.

Cascade Falls is a must-visit spot, perfect for a quick and refreshing getaway. Located just a short distance away, I never imagined I could reach such a stunning waterfall so easily. The walk to the falls is gentle and accessible for everyone, making it an ideal destination for all ages.

A beautiful oasis just 1-2 hours outside of Vancouver! Cascade Falls is absolutely stunning, and the short hike to the suspension bridge is both fun and scenic. It’s a great spot to cool off on a hot day, with crystal-clear pools perfect for swimming and refreshing cool water. Just a heads-up—make sure to bring bug spray, especially if you’re planning to stay later in the day. Enjoy!

Loved this spot! A very short toddler friendly hike up to the waterfall. There is a bit of an incline but very manageable for kids 2+, just hold their hands. There are some stairs along the way as well but doesn't take more than 15 mins if you're walking slowly. You can take some great pictures at the waterfall and the bridge. At the base, if you go right, there are a couple of sheltered tables for a picnic and then in the same area you can get right into the water flowing from the waterfall.

This waterfalls is always a refreshing sight. I saw it on Fall and Summer time. The picnic area is tiny but the river below is a lovely spot to go for a quick dip. The restroom could get a little bit of cleaning.

Nice, short walk to an absolutely beautiful waterfall. Great for the family to get some air and explore, totally worth a visit. No drones, no flippy floppys...doesn't say anything about pants though!

A beautiful hidden gems, a great place to take a day trip You can take a short hike to the falls which is spectacular, a wonderful suspension bridge along the route. There is a nice size parking lot, a few picnic tables! A great place for a picnic!!

We had a great time visiting Castle Fun Park! There are plenty of games to enjoy, and the pricing for each one was quite reasonable. I’d definitely recommend this place for kids—but honestly, it’s just as fun for adults. After all, you’re never too old to be a kid again! We really enjoyed playing some of the shooting games, Racing, Mario Kart, and pinball. "Bumper car" was especially fun.mini golf is a must try. Unfortunately, we missed out on go-karting because we arrived too early—the track opens after 5 PM. Luckily, we still have our Castle Fun Card loaded with credit, so we’re looking forward to going back and trying the go-karts next time!

A nice arcade in a quiet area near Abbotsford. Go Karts open 5pm. There are plenty of games to play. Some are expensive like Underwater Golf but you can go along the kids even if you are not playing. The golf area is quite dated but nevertheless, kids love it. Laser Room is weird. Sometimes the game lasts 10 seconds. There are many more games upstairs including some real classic arcades like Contra. There is also mini bowling which is a great deal with the amount of turns you get. There is also dodging cars which is fun for the family. Overall, a nice place to spend 2-3 hours with the family.

Mostly arcade games, most of the machines are pretty old and don’t work as intended. Really wish they could upgrade the facility and improve on the concession snacks. Still this place is a great option for first timers and on rainy days. Staffs who work there are nice though.

Lots of out of order / broken games 10% maybe 20% for the older kids. The batting cages and outside still out of commission. The super young kids area is in good shape 100% functional. Food is well you know. Heat rack menu. Kids love it. Clean and tidy. Fairly busy - it is a rainy Sunday. Otherwise same old place as before.

What can I say, it's Castle Fun Park! Lots of fun! I just wish they were able to have the outdoor mini-golf course restored after the flooding a few years ago.

Kids had fun, games are a reasonable price. Pretty quiet and lots still closed due to the flood in 2021...4 years of construction and all thats open is video games and golf

Bowling is nice; short lanes, affordable, no line ups. Bumper cars area is very small, we were playing in 3 people and it looked crowded. Arcade has tons of games!

I really enjoyed the place — the park is fantastic! It’s a great space for both adults and children to spend time, relax, enjoy the fresh air, and unwind. That said, there were a couple of things that slightly took away from the overall experience. First, the staff. I wish they were more friendly and engaged. It was rare to see anyone smile or show interest. It often felt like the younger staff members saw themselves as being “in charge” and behaved in a somewhat condescending or superior way. That kind of attitude isn’t very welcoming and doesn’t encourage return visits. If the staff were more open and positive in their interactions, I would happily give this place five stars. Secondly, the food at the food court was underwhelming. Some of the vegetables looked like they had wilted long before they made it to my plate. The tomatoes, for example, were completely inedible — I couldn’t even manage to eat them. On a positive note, though, the poutine was delicious — so thank you for that!

A excellent Waterpark located just a hour across the Canadian boarder from Washington State. The Staff was outstanding, very helpful and and friendly. A great variety of water slides. Lots of splash areas for the young ones. The area was so clean. There is plenty of parking ( They do charge a fee) really enjoyed everything they offered

Fun-Filled Family Day at Cultus Lake Waterpark! We visited Cultus Lake Waterpark last Saturday with the whole family, and it was an absolute blast! The kids (and adults!) had an unforgettable time. The park offers a fantastic variety of rides suitable for both children and adults, ensuring everyone finds something to enjoy. The highlight of our day was the colossal canyon - grabbing a four-person tube and navigating the twists and turns was thrilling and had us all laughing like crazy! There are plenty of picnic table areas throughout the park, perfect for setting up a home base to relax and eat. We also loved discovering the hot tubs scattered around—see if you can find them all for a relaxing break between rides! A few things to note: There’s a bag check at the entrance, and open bottles will be emptied, so plan accordingly. Also, once you enter, there’s no re-entry, so make sure to bring all your essentials with you. Overall, Cultus Lake Waterpark is a fantastic spot for a family outing. With exciting rides, great amenities, and plenty of fun, we can’t wait to return!

Cultus Lake Waterpark is considered as one of the best in British Columbia. It's only a couple of hours away from Downtown Vancouver or about an hour away from Surrey. The drive to this place is wonderful. The rides are amazing and for most rides you don't need to be a swimmer. There are lifeguards watching you from everywhere so you're pretty safe. Beware: some rides do need you to be an expert swimmer. Please buy your tickets in advance as on weekends they are mostly sold out. You can carry your tents, umbrellas, mats, wagons full of food and drinks, etc. They have a ground which can be used for having a picnic. You can get lockers there to store valuable belongings. As for parking, you get two options - free parking at the back of the park (unsupervised), and paid parking ($10 for the day) in front of the park. You can check their website for all the good things you get. It's well written over there. A must go with friends or with family.

The park has a great, fun, and family-friendly atmosphere. Lots of slides and activities for kids, and the whole place is well-maintained. The staff are friendly and make you feel safe. ✅ Pros: • A wide variety of slides for all ages • Clean, family-oriented environment • Helpful and polite staff ❌ Main downside: They don’t limit ticket sales, so it gets overcrowded. We had to spend most of our day standing in long lines. It would be much better if they controlled the number of visitors.

Fantastic park! Layout makes everything accessible. Also a ton of fun slides/rides for teens and adults. Since it was a bit cloudy, it wasn't as busy as I feel it would be if it was sunny. We were able to get a covered table and that made a different compared to being on the grass (as we didn't prepare for that). Staff was friendly and helpful. I honestly enjoyed all the slides and raft rides. Price was $40 CAD (I'm from California) and I felt that was about right. Food is always pricey, but there is an option to bring in sealed food. I did buy "Valley of fries" which was like $12. Also there is a coffee/expresso/frappe' bar too. Valley of Fear, Speed Slide and Freefall were awesome. Again, honestly impressed with all the slides. And if it is a bit cold at 1st, there are hot tubs dotted throughout the park! My kids enjoyed immensely.

Such an amazing waterpark!! The best I’ve been to in BC. It’s got a whole bunch of slides ranging from easy to difficult, and ones for all ages. The lineups aren’t terrible, they seem to cap attendance at the right number to keep everything flowing smoothly in the park. There is food available and it’s not too expensive. I recommend the fish and chips, it is excellent! Don’t fear if it’s raining, you will still have a blast at the waterpark because the lines will be shorter, and there are hot tubs everywhere. I’ve been here on a rainy day before and it was one of my favourite days in the park. You can’t beat a sunny day though, even with the longer lines! Highly recommend checking out this waterpark, you will not be disappointed!

This is now by far my favorite Washington waterfall. Amazing! The amount of water coming down and another river joining it is incredible to watch. The drive is long from Olympia, but worth it at least once. There are snakes in the area, but we didn't see any. All snakes west of the cascades are non- venomous. In Washington state, the only venomous snake is the Western Rattlesnake, also known as the Northern Pacific Rattlesnake. It is primarily found in the eastern part of the state, east of the Cascade Mountains. There's plenty of parking of everyone parks next to each other.

You drive down a windy gravel road to an open gravel parking lot. The walk down is only like a minute from the parking lot. The falls is beautiful and fenced in from the cliff. No restrooms available.

Gorgeous!!!!! Easy to get to and view the beautiful waterfall.

Beautiful waterfall, great location, each to get to.

SPECTACULAR!!! I first went to Racehorse falls which isn't too far away and I thought it was my favorite Until I saw Nooksack....WOW I first climbed under the bridge and down some big rocks which put me on Top of the falls which was an Amazing perspective. If it had been wet the rocks would have been dangerous and slippery but luckily I was there on a dry day. Just around the corner you can see the falls falling. So very beautiful. And I also liked that there was no hiking needed. Highly recommend these falls.

Easy to get to and pretty but the very tall fencing takes away from the glory of it all. I understand it's necessary for safety purposes but it does take away from the beauty.

This is my favorite spot to escape from reality and enjoy nature, I've also siphoned gallons of water from the falls and its the most refreshing water I've ever had.

bridal Falls comes up in things to see in the area and we have noticed it used in some Canadian filmed shows so decided to explore. We went on a misty morning on a Wednesday in December thinking we’d be the only tourist types going in the rain but there were small groups of people coming and going. There really isn’t anywhere to park but a road edge and it is a fairly steep hike for 15 minutes up to the falls. Very scenic area and a beautiful falls.

Went there in the morning for a short walk during weekend with friends. Better be there early on weekends to get parking spot. Trails available and going up to the right you will able to see the amazing Bridal Veil Falls. Their Picnic area, tables and pit washrooms are better than Shannon Falls. Although these parks have their own must see great views. Dog friendly on leash park and trail but didn’t see any playground for children.

Beautiful waterfalls conveniently near highway 1. The short hike is worth it. But i hope they place more direction signs. It may be a short trail, but we still got a bit lost as there were 2 intertwined trails. Parking can be full, so a little bit of patience is needed even on a not so busy day.

Are you getting sleepy on a long commute? If yes, then here is a quick little hike to get the blood flowing and wake you up. Trail will take you about 15 minutes hike to the top, and the waterfall waters are good for a quick cold shower (if you choose to ignore the signs and hike the rest of the way up). It is worth a stop 100%

The trails and paths are extremely well maintained and clearly marked. The viewing area at the waterfall has a taped off area to prevent people from climbing up to the falls, but someone cut the tape. Beautiful picnic spots near the parking area with plenty of restrooms close by. The picnic tables are right next to a small stream which is incredibly peaceful to listen to. I would imagine the place gets very busy in the sunny months though. This was an amazing morning trip from Abbotsford.

Wonderful place for a short (uphill) hike to the falls. There are two trails up -- one is steeper and shorter. We took that one up and then the longer, less steep one back (has some stairs). Other trails as well for longer hikes.

the walk is steep in some places, but not incredibly difficult if you have no physical barriers. Some slopes are about 30*+ and you feel it. The view is worth it. There are two paths up, the short one from the parking lot has the steepest slopes. The other one has some stairs to help.

It is overall a great campsite, our site was spacious enough (some sites are too crowded/near each other) and well maintened. Not sure year round but there were a bit of bees. The water is clear and with some fish. The forest logging roads on the way is a beginners level and not much rocks but plenty of potholes. Easy camp within 2hrs from the lower mainland. Please be diligent in researching and booking campsites via the BC parks website.

INCREDIBLE, BEAUTIFUL hike. I do recommend being prepared. If you go early, there will be a lot of spider webs on the path. You need a stick. We didn't see a another human the entire hike. Very nice walk, easy difficulty. We saw the bear poop and knew he was around. We only had one can of Bubbly with us. We were city slickers not prepared at all. The threat of the bear is real.

Definitely enjoyed the campground, very clean. The park Rangers, we're constantly driving around, making sure that all the garbage cans recycling cans were all clean and emptied. Outhouses were clean. It's nice. Sandy beach area with lots of picnic tables. Make sure you bring extra tarps. In case it gets windy, so you can make a wind shelter. To block the wind

Beautiful place to relax , if you coming for camping there is a lots of good spots to choose from. Swimming, walking, or relaxing with the book you choose what you like 💖🌞🏕

Hicks Lake is a hidden gem! The water is clean, calm, and surprisingly warm - perfect for swimming. It’s a great spot for kayaking, with a few small islands you can paddle to and relax on their quiet, scenic beaches. Peaceful and beautiful, it’s a perfect escape into nature.

Beautiful lake, very well kept! The drive up isn’t super rough either which was nice!

This lake is absolutely gorgeous. Warm water great for swimming. Lots of beaches and rock areas so there’s room for everyone. There are dog aloud areas and no dog allowed areas. Multiple bathrooms pick Nick tables and swimming areas. Great trails to walk and explore. Lots of free parking and wheelchair accessible. There is camping available as well. Great Lake to take the family to. Sun and shade areas. Lots of geese to enjoy but with that comes a lot of geese poop. The geese poop is the only downfall to this lake

The view is underrated during Summer for the ski area and can’t justify the beauty in Winter season, but it is worth a visit. Most parts of the roads uphill are winery, so it requires good driving skills. Chains are needed for Winter.

🚲🛹fun. Theres flaggers on road and a temporary signal be careful bikers going 40+, when we finally did decide to leave the abrupt flaggers made group of bikers behind us screech to a halt

Epic mountain with tons of snow during the season! ❄️🏂 No frills, just pure skiing and snowboarding fun. The terrain is insane — great for advanced riders but still has chill runs too 🎿🔥 Vibes are super local and laid-back, no resort crowds 🙌 If you love powder, Mt. Baker delivers. 💯🌨️

I’ve been coming here for multiple years now, the skiing here is great, with great views at the top of the lifts. And food at the lodges is good.

Great destination for hiking, camping, and snowshoes. You can ski, too. And they all come with great views if Baker, Shuksan, ridges, lakes, and (in season) fall colors of blueberry and Sumac.

Road is a little rough, but my '98 Jetta made it no problem. Great little lake to walk around, can't wait to see it after it snows!

Amazing mountain that has soenthing for everyone. From painters caught up in the beautiful landscape to skiers and hikers looking to push the limit. The views here are breathtaking

Been here before and decided to bring our road trip to pass by here. Although online suggested buying tickets online, this place was not busy at all with zero line ups and ample parking. The airtram experience was great offering great views to and from its lower facility. This place features multiple exhibits, gift shop, gold panning station, cafe (reviewed separately), bridge, and fudge store that offers a decent experience to the average tourist. Compared to my previous experience, this place feels a little dead. Perhaps it's not the summer season yet, but I feel like the shops they had originally have turned to exhibits for the sake of cutting manpower costs. The gold panning station was kind of lacklustre without anyone teaching about the mechanics like before. Overall it's a solid 3 and very hard for me to place a 4 like before.

Spectacular views and a unique experience, but a few things to know before you go. Hell’s Gate is definitely worth a visit if you’re driving through the Fraser Canyon. The gondola ride across the canyon is short but breathtaking, and the views of the rushing Fraser River are stunning. The suspension bridge and historical displays add a nice touch, and the whole place feels like a piece of BC history. However, parking is very limited, so try to arrive early. The on-site restaurant has a very limited menu — mostly sandwiches (around $14), two soups, fries, and burgers. The food is overpriced and not very impressive. Also, the gift shop, while fun to browse, is quite expensive. Still, the scenery makes up for the downsides. If you manage your expectations for food and shopping, the overall experience is memorable and well worth it. Also there's only one bathroom at the bottom of the Canon

Been running since 1968 and well worth stopping and doing the tram. A good history lesson on it being part of the gold rush. Great gift shop and restaurant, staff are very friendly.

A great place to stop and stretch your legs on a long road trip and well worth the time spent. A great look into the history of the salmon runs on the river. There’s a great little ‘spooky’ self-guided tour and the suspension bridge was definitely a bit hair raising. Also, they have a penny crusher machine so make sure you have some loonies!

Skip it! Don’t waste your money here. They had the most unfriendly staff, if you can even find one. The place is like a ghost town. If I knew how rundown this place had gotten, I wouldn’t even pay $5 a person to get in let alone the hefty price of $37. Thank goodness my son under 5 still otherwise it’s $32 a kid! There are zero activities there, the “gold panning” is a disgrace - the water is a biohazard and there was barely any gravel let alone any “gold”. I feel offended for all the tourist that come here and think this place represents Canada in any way shape or form. Also, 1 single gum ball at the candy store was $23.09…. Excuse me whatttt?!?

I've been to hell's gate a number of times and it has a nice view of the Frazer river but there isn't really much to do once you've taken the airtram to the bottom. The gift store is lacking and doesn't have much things to offer but the fudge on the other had is really good. The tickets for hells gate are kind of expensive but understanding this place is more of a tourist attraction. 7/10

Super disappointing and limited experience. This is my Honest review with no filter or sugar coating. I would have given it one star but fell sorry because nature and surrounding elements are spectacular indeed. Where do we start with negatives?! First off the price set at $35 is not only steep but completely unjustified. I read a review before I went there that it’s very rundown and nothing really to do there. I didn’t believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. Once you get up across the river after a very. Beautiful but short tram ride you have a suspension bridge, a counter that was once a restaurant, a sad, overpriced and limited store, a small gallery history museum and a Fudge and candy store that sells terrible fudge by the way. The restaurant looks so run down that we didn’t order anything. They had 5-6 food choices on the menu and it’s an actual counter self serve cashier. The store sells some items and cheap souvenirs some you’d find in Vancouver aquarium and bc ferries but much more pricey. The sweet shop / ice cream fudge was a total joke. I got a sea salt and caramel. If you’ve never had a fudge in your life there is a small chance you might like it. It was salty like they dumped the salt and rolled it into a mushy paste with some hint of sweet caramel. I almost died in the first bite. The whole place seems unkept and rundown. It really is a shame because it is such a heritage site and deserves to shine. I imagine if a better owner take care of this place it could receive some boost and major upgrades.

Absolutely stunning🌟!! Beautiful mix of nature and history. It’s short walk from the parking lot (5mins). We visited over the weekend and it was pretty busy, parking gets full pretty fast but there’s plenty of parking alongside the road you can use, if you don’t mind walking a few extra meters!! Tunnels are extraordinary. Walk alongside the canyon, with rushing water - its just beautiful😍 Definitely check them out while they are still Open!!

Beautiful place. Wonderful nature with peaceful sound of the clear water. We could enter three tunnels, or actually 2,5; Halfway the last tunnel was a wall built, with a note with the message repairs are needed on the tunnels so we couldn't go further. Despite it was very worth the (15-20 minute?) stop. It was a very little walk of approximately 5 minutes. (Would have been possible/ accessible with wheelchair I guess.)

Absolutely gorgeous, it was amazing how the tunnels turn around to fabulous views. It's a nice walk towards the entrance and get dark, better to have some form touch or mobile flash would do. The bridges are quite the catch with the view. There are more tunnels and could walk down the way. Definitely a place to visit!

Made a pit stop here on route from Vancouver to Sun Peaks and I’m so glad that we did. The tunnels are incredible. I’ve never seen anything quite like it before. The views are amazing. I highly recommend visiting this place from some unique sights and amazing pictures.

The nature here is absolutely beautiful, and it’s a very interesting historical place. This is a great destination for anyone who loves the rich history of our province. I just have a couple of small suggestions: 1. On weekends, it’s really difficult to find parking — there clearly aren’t enough spots, and there are a lot of tourists. 2. There isn’t much historical information available on-site, so I often had to use Google Search to learn more about the place. Other than that, it’s definitely worth visiting!

Finally revisited the Othello tunnels since their full re-opening, the restoration crews did a great job. It may only be a short portion of the historic kettle valley railway, but it's beautiful, the tunnels are a little spooky, and everything feels very safe. Don't forget your flashlight, or the flashlight on your phone.

Visiting this place is like a small lottery — sometimes you get to see it, sometimes you don’t. Very unexpectedly. Our group tried twice. The second time we even called ahead, and they confirmed the Tunnels were open. We drove more than 150 km — only to find them closed. Why? For how long? Nobody could answer. I hope you’ll be luckier. From the parking lot, it’s just a 12-minute walk along a wide, flat road, comfortable even for seniors and children. On the bright side, the road to this location is very picturesque, which helps soften the disappointment. And by the way, you can also visit the famous Bridal Falls, just 42 km away.

Great rest area. A lot of room can even stay overnight with self contained RV. There are toilets as well as EV charging station and a plaque that explains the history. Unfortunately, people do not put their garbage in the garbage bins so there are some areas that it is a bit of a mess

Last stop on my trip through the Kootenays! Didn't know there was an EV station here. But there are pit toilets! The info on the hope slide is very sobering. The power of nature unleashing itself is just incredible sometimes. There was a lake here????

Unexpected discovery during our roadtrip to Osoyoos this year. We stopped to get some leg rest and found this interesting historical spot. Stop by and visit this place, read about historical events happened here in 1960s. There is parking with EV charging stations, washrooms, and picknick tables with a killer view.

Not much to say here, its a big memorial of a tragic slide and also a marker for a Canadian Air Force plane crash. Thank you to all who serve.

Fascinating piece of Canadian history I knew nothing about until I went for a motorcycle ride and stopped at this place. When you actually see the volume of rock that moved with your own eyes, it is quite humbling. A single rock slide reshaped an entire valley, took out a lake and killed 4 people. Don't fight mother nature is a valid saying; she will win every battle.

Witness breathtaking mountain scenery and explore the site of one of Canada’s largest landslides. Learn about the 1965 disaster through on-site displays and enjoy a powerful reminder of nature’s strength.

Breathtakingly beautiful The stillness is eerie The wildlife is there if you look carefully We saw Yellow Belly Marmots Very cool There is electric charger stations here & washrooms And a Picnic bench There is a info plaque of what happened on this historic site on January 9, 1965 in the Nicolum Valley in the Cascade Mountains It's a 10 min drive east of Hope, BC on highway 3 Updated April 22 2022

Great campsite. Nice playground and bike area for kids. Sinks for dishes, showers, flush toilets. Only downside is that the highway traffic can be loud at night. We were in the sites closest to the highway. Maybe they're quieter further up from the road. Overall very nice camping experience. Wish it was longer. An no mosquitos when we were there!

One of the absolute best campgrounds I have ever been to! No wonder it's hard to find a vacancy. They have a super nice and clean modern playground, a bicycle skills track, one of the cleanest washrooms you'll ever find, super tidy and clean camping spots with plenty of shade, some very nice park rangers and breathtaking views!

It was my first time camping on this campground and We stayed at #48. Great campsite with flush toilets and hot showers . The facilities were well maintained by the Staffs . The Staffs were frequently checking the camp area and very friendly. My family really like the place and we looking forward to camp again Thank you

I've always had a great experience camping here. Bathrooms and showers are some of the cleanest I've seen for a campground, with kitchen sinks located behind the main building to do dishes. There are also sinks and flush toilets located in a couple spots around the loops. There's a big kids' playground and a bike track and walking trails located in the campground, which is a nice addition. The campsite is located next to the highway, so there is road noise, but I only noticed it a couple times during the day.

We had a nice campsite. Partial shade. Many sites had no shade. Not to much to do at the site, any activities such biking, hiking, fishing you need to drive to get to. We could hear hwy traffic the whole time. The kids playground was amazing, that was about the best this about the site.

It's a super clean campground - very clean bathrooms and lovely showers. The water taps are very close but the actual location in Manning Park (so close to the highway) leaves it at a 4/5 vs 5/5

Beautiful campground. Spacious and clean. Ground was easy to set up camp. Each site also has a picnic table. Rangers were constantly doing their rounds with firewood. Bonus - has flushable toilets and warm showers!

Great hill, great terrain, and super fast lift lines. The triple chair especially. I have never had more than one person in front of me. Great variety of terrain, with some expert runs plenty of gladed skiing and it is a steep mountain. Ski patrol awesome, my daughter ended up with a spinal compression fracture they took great care of her we have been back many times since.

Hill was more than I was expecting. There were lots of nice steep pitches to keep you entertained. Snows was great, groomers were fast. With lifts in the mid 100s, I'll be hitting Apex up again.

For a skiing area with only 2 chairlifts, the amount of terrain accesed is absolutely huge! It feels more like a larger locals hill, not an international destination resort. The vibe is relaxed, the ticket pricing simple and clear, good steep runs at the top, friendly liftees, old school hand scanned tickets, beatiful views (you can see both Big White and mt Baldy from the top) . Would recommend to ski here for a couple days to try out all the runs.

Nice hill to go to if you are local. Not an easy hill! If you are new to snowsports, this might not be a hill to start on. Mostly groomed runs with lots of powder options.

Awesome rooms, awesome trails. Had a lot of fun definitely would do it again

We stayed for three nights in December of 2023. We could tell it had lots of potential, unfortunately the weather wasn't great for ski conditions at that point in the season. That said, the rooms in ski in ski out were amazing, the tubing was our favorite and the groomers were phenomenal. All of the staff were friendly and helpful, the food was delicious in the base area restaraunts. I hope to return for another trip with better snow and the skate loop open. *Returned December 2024 and had fun skiing the steeper terrain!

We went up at 3:30 wanting to skate in the loop that was open until 10pm. My boyfriend needed to rent skates and they told us that we could but we needed to return them by 4:00pm or 9am tomorrow. Because the skate loop is open until 10 we assumed there would be a drop box or someplace we could drop the skates off when we were finished with them as we were told on the phone. We travelled 2 hours from lake country to get there and with the lack of misinformation on the website and the cluelessness of the rental shop it was completely disappointing. For an activity that is open until 10pm there should be some sort of service open until then as well. We left extremely dissatisfied and disappointed.

An excellent morning out while visiting the Penticton area! It’s always a great time to experience a historic train like this. The views along the route are fantastic, be sure to sit in the open cars on the valley side. The volunteers were great to chat with and they really have the whole operation running so smoothly.

->Fantastic steam engine excursion; Mid-ride disembarking process needs work<- Excited to get tickets for this excursion (how often do you get to ride behind a 1912 N-2-b class 2-8-0 "Consolidation" type steam locomotive, built by MLW for CPR) Beautiful sound! Lovely engine! Ride was from about 10:30 - 12:15 There's a "valley side" or a "canyon/mountain side". Pick the valley side or else your view will be hill and looking across other people's heads towards the valley. You don't get the option to stand up/move/change seats during the ride or at the mid-way point. At the end of the line, the engine uncouples and goes around to the other end of the train. Riders are invited to disembark "for 10 minutes" (there's a porta-potty) to take photos with the engine. But there's only 1 exit for the entire train. It took almost the entire layover time just to get all the people off the train, so by the time you got off, you had to get back in line to get back on. And you won't get any pictures with the engine, there's too many people. That was ridiculous, really. I would have MUCH preferred the option to disembark BEFORE the train goes out halfway across the bridge (for photos) because the only way you can get a photo of the train on the bridge is to wait around for the next excursion and wait here to get your photos. I think this part of the trip requires a re-think. Had some trouble at the station too, there are a set of about 10 wooden stairs but there is no anti-slip/visual markings on the edges of the steps and my partner in his excitement, missed a step and fell hard. Yellow lines on the edges of the steps might have prevented this and many of the riders are older folk...so maybe a thought, eh?

What a great experience! The volunteers are so friendly and knowledgeable. We loved it! Very fun!!! Book open air, valley side for the best views. Bring a blanket. :)

Very fun. Nice views and the conductor that explains local history and sights during the ride is a nice touch. All crew was incredibly friendly and answer any questions you have. Good value for money, actually seemed cheap to me for what you get ($33/pp). Great way to spend a couple hours.

A fantastic ride through history! The Kettle Valley Steam Railway is such a fun and unique experience! You get to ride an old steam train through beautiful Okanagan scenery — vineyards, orchards, and even over a huge trestle bridge with amazing views. You can choose an open or closed carriage, and the ride is smooth and relaxing. The coolest part? They have themed rides like the Great Train Robbery, where actors on horseback actually “rob” the train, just like in the Wild West. Super fun for both kids and adults! After the ride, you can enjoy lunch and hang out at the station. It really feels like a trip back in time. Highly recommend it if you’re anywhere near Summerland, BC. 🚂💨

This is the second time that we’ve visited this place. It didn’t disappoint! The experience was great. Booking up the seats was easy and travelling in the open carriage was wonderful in the hot weather.

Visiting from England with local relatives. We were blessed with a beautiful day at ~26°. We arrived just after lunch. Lots of car parking space. Minimal queuing - purchasing tickets in advance recommended. There are options within 1. closed carriages (large sliding windows open to help bring the outside in) and 2. open sided carriages which might be a better option on a hot day. Our carriage was very comfortable and the large window gave a nice through draft to keep everyone cool. The wonderful conductor with his microphone in hand, educated us on the railways history. The stories of the prolific bank robberies; things of interest that we might expect to see in the trip including bears. They had been seen in the area earlier in the day. How exciting. They played some good old country music in the background. It was great! The tour lasted about 1.5 hours. With commentary and breathtaking scenery, I'd highly recommend. I thought it was good value for money. Sometimes they have staged 'robberies' acted out and I'd have loved that. There was a bear but it quickly disappeared up a nearby tree however, just looking out for them was also great fun and even the big kids on board were loving it all. At the top of the track at.the half time point the engine swaps around ready for the return leg of the journey. At this point you can get out and stretch your legs, take photos and have a photo taken for you of your group at the front of the engine by one of the crew. All.part of the service amd a lovely momento of the day. In a.nutshell, definitely recommend a visit. Kids and adults alike will love this railway adventure that transports you back in time almost, when hearing all of those great stories. No dogs allowed. Great gift shop Clean washrooms. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Loads of parking space Reasonable ticket prices Great value for money. Awesome views. We also visited the dirty laundry winery for lunch before.this.trip, more about that next .... My photos don't do it justice, you have to go and see for yourselves. 🥰 Enjoy!!

We had an amazing time at Dirty Laundry ...the food, the wine & the atmosphere were all top notch. We enjoyed lunch with a view and had a great afternoon. Bob was a super host!!! Definitely worth the trip to Summerland!

Our visit was completely lovely from the moment we entered to room. Our tasting host was pleasant, knowledgeable and engaging. She managed to host three separate tastings with ease and shared the winery story with the group of us. Her delivery was funny while informative. The winery decor cleverly plays up the dirty laundry theme.

I came up to the Okanagan with a girlfriend and she wanted to visit a winery. Out of all the wineries up here I chose Dirty Laundry for her to visit. I have brought family from Germany here, so I knew she would enjoy this one. The wine tasting was good and for only $6!!! Viktoria was very informative and super friendly, when we were looking to purchase wine she came and asked if we need helping with any of our choices. After we were done wine tasting we sat out on the patio to listen to live music and have some pizza. Oh was the pizza ever good!!! And the views and ambience on the patio were beautiful. When we left my girlfriend said to me, thank you so much for bringing me to this winery, I loved it!! So sounds like my choice of wineries to visit was perfect!

Absolutely incredible place. We arrived on our travels from Ottawa, to find out sadly that no dogs were allowed on the patio. Sherri the Manager was fantastic and found us a spot to accommodate us and Lewis our Golden Doodle. Moreover, she went above and beyond with a bottle of the Vineyards Pinot Gris - gratis. An amazing spot and great customer service Sherri and love the vineyard.

Wow, wuat a hidden gem and concept! Excellent ratings, tastings, wine, atmosphere, pizza and smokehouse. If you wine touring finish here! Smokehouse and pizza are very impressive. Staff excellent and trained, red wines are excellent. We will be back. It's a goto for Summerland wine tastings!

This is one of my favourite wineries, consistently great wine and always a welcoming atmosphere! Recently got to experience their patio and shared a bottle of wine and a pizza and honestly did not want to leave! Can’t wait to go back!!

This was our first time, and I'm totally coming back. The pizza was awesome, and the view from the patio was incredible. We had to wait for a table, so we did the wine tasting, and I'm so glad we did. It was fun trying new wines. I can't wait to go back.

Easy access and parking. Great staff. Worth the stop

Thank you for your friendly, inviting, and patient welcome. The staff helped above and beyond , answering every question in explicit detail, taking the time to really help. That was so much appreciated, and I'll be back when I need some more hiking advice. Thanks!

We cycled out purposefully to find out about wine tours. It was challenging to get the information we wanted. One would think that at a place like this you would get advice tailored to your desires. Not so much. And when I told the fellow that I had almost cut myself on some broken glass outside he seemed to take a very nonchallant attitude. We ended up just going on our own - self guided touring. Actually, the best way to tour the vineyards, I think, is to take a bicycle on the trails! That was amazing!!!

Stopped by here to pick up tickets to Fest-of-Ale and was really pleasantly surprised by the friendly and helpful staff. They had lots of helpful advice and some great resources for touring the surrounding wine country.

Eager to help with tailored information

The lady that was working was very friendly .and lots info and good prices .on some souvenirs. And as we where leaving the young man that worked there was coming to work. His co work said look i was just thinking you where going to miss our little dog ...

Awesome. This the BEST visitors centre. They were knowledgeable. Had an up to date list of local activities by day. Asked about our interests and length of time we were in the area. Then gave us a card with activities, date, time and directions.

One of our old reliable favs. New tasting room, just opened in August, with stellar views. Primrose was a delight, and the wines were lovely, particularly the black label and Jimmy My Pal. The 'dog' branding is a sweet bonus.

We had our micro-wedding on September 10 and the entire process was effortless thanks to Tara and her staff! The recommended vendors were professional, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They all guided me through the planning and were very attentive. I couldn’t have done it without them. Everyone had a brilliant time, including 4 dogs! The food was amazing and my special requests were flawless!

Just underwhelming all around! Server brought is the wine but no glasses, we had to go get some after 5 min of waiting. The charcuterie board was basic at best. I don’t want to pay $30 and get saltine crackers on the board and basic cheddar cheese that looks like my 4 yr old grandson cut. Just not elevated at all! Server never checked in, no napkins at all so we used the blankets that were provided unfortunately. Definitely not this places norm that’s for sure!! 5/10

What a beautiful winery! We were guests here for a wonderful evening that was an evening to remember. The staff and hosts were delightful and friendly, and the guest wineries that were showcasing their wines were all pleasant and knowledgeable. The wines were great and it was definitely a place we will come back to.

2025 tasting room rebuild. Very nice. Scenic location. Beautiful views. Dog friendly.

Spent a nice afternoon at this winery. We tried a few different wines and all of them were excellent. Small menu selection but the food was great. The service was attentive and accommodating, while the atmosphere was wam and inviting. The view from the gazebo is also beautiful. Highly recommended if you're looking for a winery in the Okanagan Valley.

Wonderful winery, the buildings are very new and staffs are so nice!! We had a great time tasting and eating at their patio!

Our absolute favorite winery! We always end up buying a full case for ourselves and another for friends — and then keep ordering online, because their wines are the only thing that make those long Saskatchewan winters survivable (honestly, they should be prescribed for it!). Every wine is a gem: the unforgettable Sage white, their exquisite dessert wines, and the excellent dry reds that are impossible to resist. Tastings are free and include everything, so you really get to explore their whole range. Anna and her sister are true enthusiasts who know their craft inside out — warm, welcoming, and full of passion for what they do. Every visit feels special, and you will definitely not leave empty-handed. We absolutely adore this place!

This place was such a cool and unique experience! The wines were really different and we loved it. From the moment we got there, everything was great—the rose gardens and statues were beautiful. Our hostess was awesome and made it a really fun time. Definitely worth a visit!

This winery is the bar every other winery should aspire to. The owner was both entertaining and extremely informative. She is so passionate about her wines! Obviously she is adventurous in her different combinations for her wines. Hands down, the best wines anywhere. Thank you for a fun tasting.

My boyfriend’s family and I had such a wonderful experience here. We went for a tasting, as we found out they have a special selection of wines, specifically fortified wines. John was extremely knowledgeable and had such a great sense of humor. He had us laughing and really enjoying our time there. We were so impressed with the wide selection of dessert wines. Every single one was delicious, and had unique properties, and reflected high standards for their production process. We won’t share how many we purchased ;) They definitely have our business! It was so nice to sit on the bench outside, take in the view, and enjoy the sounds of the water. Thank you John! We will be back!

We stumbled upon this lovely winery for a spontaneous tasting and had no idea what a treat we were in for. The wines were exceptional — beautifully balanced and full of character — but what truly made the experience unforgettable was the owner. Knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely entertaining, they brought warmth and wit to every pour. It was the perfect ending to an already great weekend.

Silver Sage is absolutely a standout winery! The stunning grounds- with beautiful roses and a tranquil pond- create a breathtaking setting. We enjoyed a generous tasting of 13 fruit-forward wines with no fee, guided by a witty and knowledgeable server who kept us laughing throughout. Honestly, I could have taken home a bottle of every wine…. they were all that good! We ended up buying four bottles. Don’t miss this gem- hands down our favourite winery in Osoyoos!

Love this place! 💛 The team is super friendly and professional, and everything runs so smoothly. Their wines are absolutely delicious — the Pinot Blanc is light and crisp, like taking a bite of a white nectarine 🍑, and the Gewürztraminer with sage is so unique and aromatic. Definitely one of my favorite wineries in the Okanagan! 🍷

This anomaly of nature is great to see, ( unbelievable actually) but you can't go down to the lake as it is fenced off, and no one is there to ask questions. I would have liked to speak to an indigenous person to find out if they do harvest the minerals etc.

Limited parking (maybe 3 car spots) but a quick lookout with cultural significance explained. Would highly recommend looking at it or booking a hiking tour.

Nature's artwork. A sacred place for indigenous brothers and sisters. They have been protecting it for generations. One of those places where you learn about mother nature and it's impact on indigenous culture. 🙏 Shiva

Nice spot to take some pictures of the lake andearn about it. Just a very small area to park your car. Maybe 5-6 cars and be very careful before heading out of the area as there's always cars drive by the area.

Great place with amazing views. The gate was locked but you can still see the beautiful scenery. No parking lot, but you can park by the gate on the road.

We stopped by here as we were heading into Oliver. It a beautiful place to pull off to right off the highway, there’s a little pullout for 2-3 vehicles. It was a sunny day with high cloud so the lake looked beautiful! We always like to stop by here when visiting the Oliver / Osoyoos area.

This lake is so beautiful, interesting and meaningful. It has 365 mineral pans with healing powers, both physical and spiritual. The surrounding countryside is home to unique wildlife species and has a high chaparral vibe.

This winery is truly top-tier! My wife and I recently brought some family and a friend for a wine tasting experience, and it was absolutely outstanding. Lisa, our host, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wines and the unique blends that Black Hills crafts so well. She curated a thoughtful and engaging experience for us, including side-by-side comparisons that beautifully showcased the nuances between vintage years and varietals. It was both educational and delicious! We highly recommend booking an appointment for a seated tasting experience rather than just dropping in for a stand-up tasting — it’s well worth it, and you won’t regret it. Our friend enjoyed it so much that she became a wine club member on the spot!

I had a wonderful experience yesterday at the Black Hills Winery in Oliver. What a beautiful setting! We sat on the patio next to the soothing sounds of water flowing into a sparkling blue pool. The views are amazing and it is so peaceful. The wine tasting offered a variety of red and white wines and each one was excellent. I’m usually a red wine drinker but the selection of white wines offered was surprisingly delicious! Every one! My friend and I shared a variety of tapas. Each choice was fresh, delicious, and attractively presented. One of the things that most impressed me was the professionalism, knowledge and kindness of the staff! Our server was Katharine and she was so gracious and personable! Highly recommend it! Will be back!

We spent the weekend touring wineries in Oliver and Black Hills was the best experience we had! The team was wonderful, presented each wine beautifully and we were all very impressed with the wine overall. The patio was very enjoyable and it was a perfect experience. We cannot wait to go back! - Our only regret, not buying MORE wine!

Val was absolutely amazing today. We came in with a group of 5 and she was a delight. Catered to everyone in our group, offered excellent suggestions, was so fun to talk to. I would come back just to see her but we all bought bottles and had a fantastic time.

Great wine tasting experiences at Black Hills winery! We attended in August and on Thanksgiving weekend. Our experiences were exceptional, not only the wine but also our wine hosts. Katharine and Elke were excellent! Their knowledge of the wine along with their care and attention made for two memorable visits. Would recommend visiting this winery if you haven't already ...AND..if you have, do it again!

What a wonderful experience! We popped by on a whim, as the winery looked nice, and we were blown away by the service and personal touches during the wine tasting. All the staff and managers were very knowledgeable and attentive. Not to mention, the wines were incredible. In fact, the service was so outstanding that even if the wines hadn’t been amazing, we still would’ve been impressed. We became wine club members on the spot and can’t wait to come back again ASAP. If you haven’t added Black Hills to your list of stops, it’s a must!

While my wife and I did not do the tasting, we sat on the patio and had a couple glasses of wine each and a wonderful lunch full of fresh and well-put-together ingredients. The server was also attentive. The food and wine were both excellent!
