- Patou7Puerto Vallarta, Mexico12 contributionsI love Harmon Lake. All campsites, practically have waterfront access however, this time around the weather was very cold and temperamental. This is in the Alpines after all just a heads up, there is no water or garbage. You need to bring this in with you.Written May 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Angela H9 contributionsI love exploring this shop as its full of creative and crafty makes by local artists. The art on display changes up every few weeks, and there's always something new. Even when I'm not looking for a gift, I always seem to find something that I can't leave without!Written February 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Yvonne BPenticton, Canada422 contributionsAs part of our geotourism adventure, we visited the Nicola Valley Museum and Archives in Merritt, British Columbia. Although the Museum was closed due to covid, we searched for and found a nearby geocache called "Jesus Garcia". We learned that he helped form the transportation system that made the gold rush possible in this area. Before leaving the area, we admired the colorful murals on the outside wall of the Museum and Archives building.Written August 12, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- miniFremont, CA212,203 contributionsWe were driving and saw the signs for Laurie Guichon Memorial Grasslands. There are various signs once you get there describing the grasslands, as well as the wildlife. It also educates one about the watershed. It is near Merritt, British Columbia.
The grassland area is named after Laurie Guichon, who was a fourth-generation rancher in the Nicola Valley of the historic Gerard Guichon Ranch and husband of Lt.-Gov. Judy Guichon.
Its a good area for bird watchers. Its also a good area to look for other wildlife.Written September 25, 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Large areas for children and a train that runs through the Nicola Valley in minature. Just a great space to spend time, a very comfortable meeting place.Written March 15, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- NW_DogRichmond, Canada88 contributionsBeautiful park with some shade trees and a playground. Features about a dozen picnic tables. 2 bathroom structures.
Of course the highlight is the spray park. Big highlight for the kids on a hot day.
Didn’t see any soap in men’s washroom.Written August 5, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

After we found it, we decided to explore the cemetery and gained an interesting history lesson about Merritt. We noticed that the well-maintained grounds had gravel in some parts and grassy areas in others. A large, bee-hive shaped monument, made of stones inlaid in cement, sat at the entrance. It was surrounded by lush green plants and colorful flowers. We observed that older graves were located in the gravel and had upright headstones. The newer section was all lawn and had flat headstones flush with the ground. Owned and operated by the city of Merritt, this cemetery offers in-ground burial for both caskets and cremated remains. Trees and benches dot the interior.Written September 3, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- HansiGold Canyon, AZ1,374 contributionsWe needed to stop for a rest, to take the eyes of the road since the drive from the Okanagan was stressful due to weather condition. A lovely Park, very clean, it’s obviously well cared for.
There were some kids around, seemingly having a great time.
Thank you for providing such a nice place.Written October 14, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

As we followed the given coordinates on our GPS, we walked a cool and shady forest trail. From a posted sign, we learned that we were on the Godey Creek Trail known for its mountain biking, hiking as well as running. Visitors can bring their dog as they are allowed in the area. Bird watching is popular here. In addition, there is a picnic stop with spectacular views. It was a pleasant and easy uphill walk to locate the geocache. After finding the cache, we returned to our vehicle to continue on our adventure.Written December 15, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
